- What it does
- The Department of Transportation supports local and rural road agencies across the U.S. by providing training, technical assistance, and technology transfer services to help them manage and maintain their roadway systems. Across the country, there are 51 LTAP centers serving every state, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. LTAP centers enable local counties, parishes, townships, cities, and towns to improve their roads and bridges by supplying them with a variety of low- to no-cost training programs, new and existing technology updates, personalized technical assistance, newsletters, and e-learning resources on topics including safety, construction, maintenance, and value capture. Through LTAP, these local public agencies have received mission-critical services that filled vital needs on a traditionally underserved portion of the national roadway system. Often, LTAP training events and personalized assistance were the only source for locally relevant and compatible resources. Over the years LTAP has carved a significant niche in providing these services. The program, with it's low- to no-cost model and practical accessibility, is a benefit to a local agency workforce challenged by limited access to training and technical assistance resources. This Assistance Listing 20.294 created in August 2025 was included in the previous ALN 20.215, please refer to former ALN 20.215 for FY24 and FY25 financial obligations. The new Assistance Listing 20.294 will be utilized by DOT at the start of FY 2026.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
