Abstract: The Transportation Alternatives and Recreational Trails Program information collection is mandatory under 23 U.S.C. 133(h)(8). The law requires that the State and District of Columbia Departments of Transportation report annually on Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) and Recreational Trails Program (RTP) project applications received and project selections each fiscal year. The information collected includes the aggregate cost of project applications received and types of project applications received. For those projects selected, the information includes the fiscal year during which the project was selected, the fiscal year in which the project is anticipated to be funded, the recipient, the location (including congressional district), the type, the cost, and a brief description, as required under 23 U.S.C. 133(h)(8). The U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) collects this information to comply with the statutory requirement. FHWA is required to post the information in a user-friendly format on its website. Previous reports are posted at https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/environment/transportation_alternatives/annual_reports/.
