About the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP)
Through the Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP), The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) partners with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) in facilitating and providing an opportunity for local governments to pursue non-traditional transportation-related activities such as pedestrian facilities, bicycle facilities, and pedestrian streetscaping projects. TAP improves the quality of life for citizens in communities across the state by providing local governments the means to pursue projects that might not otherwise be possible. TAP was initially authorized by the Federal Transportation Funding Act, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21), and is currently authorized by the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act.
