TOD Project Federal Requirements Guidance

Transit-Oriented Development (TOD)1  is a class of eligible capital projects within the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT). The Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA) and Railroad Rehabilitation and Improvement Financing (RRIF) loan programs, administered by the Build America Bureau (Bureau), both have TOD project eligibilities. On behalf of the Bureau, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) conducts oversight of certain TOD projects and ensures they comply with all applicable federal requirements.
