The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) administers block grants to public transportation agencies throughout the state for the purpose of providing alternatives to private passenger transportation for use by the general public. It also administers the delivery to Florida public transportation agencies of federal funds pursuant to Section 5307 of the Mass Transit Act and intended for the same purposes as the state block grant funds. In recent years as previously rural counties attained urban status, agencies that had been created to provide specialized transportation for disadvantaged persons became eligible to receive block grants and Section 5307 funds in exchange for providing general public transportation services in addition to their original missions. The Florida Department of Transportation commissioned this study to learn the various ways in which five of the new Section 5307 transit agencies have been providing public transportation services for the general public.
