Headlines are quick hits from media outlets from Missouri and around the world. Follow the headline link for the full story. The source of this headline says:

The U.S. Department of Transportation recently announced a Notice of Funding Opportunity (NOFO) for BUILD grants, making $1.5 billion available based on outlays from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021.

With grant awards up to $25 million available for projects, this NOFO presents an array of eligible entities with an option to fund their next multimodal project. Applications are to be submitted by February 24, 2026, for an anticipated June award date. . . .

In 2026, the League expects USDOT will look particularly favorably on grants from cities preparing to host 2026 FIFA World Cup matches, 2028 Summer Olympic events, and 2034 Winter Olympic events. Transit and pedestrian-oriented projects are generally less competitive for BUILD grants, but cities hosting international events are expected to fare better when applying for projects of those types.
