Grants
- The first round of state fiscal year 2022 grant offers were sent out in September, with responses due October 2. If you received a grant offer and haven’t responded yet, please contact your regional engineer as soon as possible to either accept or pass on the offer.
- Federal pre-application documentation is due to both MnDOT and the FAA by November 15. Please verify that you have your planning and environmental documents in place (or in process) to reduce grant award delays.
Advanced Air Mobility
MnDOT’s Office of Aeronautics is incorporating AAM into statewide transportation plans and is in the early stages of public communication. Current efforts are focused on increasing public knowledge and interest while building a policy and infrastructure strategy that can be nimble in response to opportunities for deployment.
To further this effort, MnDOT Aeronautics, in cooperation with the Center for Transportation Studies, has formed the Minnesota Advanced Air Mobility Work Group. The aim of this work group is to inform the public about AAM, understand stakeholder interests, and guide the integration of AAM in a manner beneficial to Minnesota.
