Sustainable Transportation Equity Project (STEP)
Contact
STEP is a transportation equity pilot that aims to address community residents’ transportation needs, increase access to key destinations, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by funding planning, clean transportation, and supporting projects.
STEP’s overarching purpose is to increase transportation equity in disadvantaged and low-income communities throughout California via two types of grants: Planning and Capacity Building Grants and Implementation Grants. Within these two grant types, CARB has awarded a total of $44.5 million. For more information, take a look at the STEP Handout in English.
CARB is currently planning upcoming solicitations for $35 million of Fiscal Year 2022-23 Planning and Capacity Building, Clean Mobility in Schools, and STEP funds. Please join us on January 18, 2023 for the second in a series of three anticipated public workgroup meetings on these solicitations.
