-Governor Scott Walker approved 25 grants, administered through the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, totaling $1,744,982 for projects to enhance local transportation options for Wisconsin residents with disabilities.
“These grants will help support new public transportation services and alternatives that go beyond what is required under the Americans with Disabilities Act,” said Governor Walker. “We are committed to providing easily-accessible and readily-available transportation means for individuals with disabilities.”
New Freedom program grants are awarded for capital and operating expenses and the matching grant program provides 50 percent to 80 percent of project costs,
depending on whether the request is for operating or capital expenses.
One project that was chosen for the New Freedom grant was the Neillsville/ Clark County Taxi Service. They will be receiving $191,312 dollars.
The Clark County taxi began in 2011 and is being expanding to include more regular service to the city of Stanley.
