| DESCRIPTION: STP funds may be used for either the construction of pedestrian walkways, or for non-construction projects such as brochures, public service announcements, maps, etc. Pedestrian walkways must be located and designated pursuant to an overall plan developed by each MPO and State. Ten percent of each State's annual STP funds are available only for Transportation Enhancement Activities (TEAs). Of the ten defined TEAs, two are specifically pedestrian related: provision of facilities for pedestrians, and preservation of abandoned railway corridors, including their conversion and use for pedestrian trails. |
