Port Infrastructure Development Program

The goal of the program is to assist in funding eligible projects for the purpose of improving the safety, efficiency, or reliability of the movement of goods through ports and intermodal connections to ports and that advance the Departmental priorities of safety, equity, Justice40, climate and sustainability, workforce development, job quality, and wealth creation. The Department seeks to fund projects under the PIDP that reduce greenhouse gas emissions in the transportation sector; incorporate evidence-based climate resilience measures and features; avoid adverse environmental impacts to air or water quality, wetlands, and endangered species; and address the disproportionate negative environmental impacts of transportation on disadvantaged communities.
