Purpose: The ATP provides competitive grants for airport terminal development projects that address the aging infrastructure of the nation’s airports. These grants will fund safe, sustainable and accessible airport terminals, on-airport rail access projects and airport-owned airport traffic control towers. Projects may also include multimodal development.
Eligible Expenditures:
The first $1 billion in grants can fund projects that will improve airfield safety through terminal relocation, replace aging facilities, increase capacity, encourage competition, improve energy efficiency (including LEED accreditation standards) and increase or improve access to passengers with disabilities and historically disadvantaged populations. Projects that relocate, reconstruct, repair or improve an airport-owned air traffic control tower are also eligible.
Eligible Applicants:
Eligible airports include those operated by authorities, cities, territories and tribes within the national air transportation system. If your airport is normally eligible for Airport Improvement Program (AIP) grants, you’re eligible for this program too.
