Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail federal funding in Connecticut

The Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail (CFDA 20.326) shows $575,100,000 in USAspending.gov obligations with Connecticut as place of performance. Two awards carry that total. The join is a FRA passenger-rail listing crossed with a state location field, not Connecticut's entire transportation budget and not an Amtrak operating ledger. Connecticut's NIH research joins in this slice are different overlays. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Key figures

  • CFDA 20.326 in Connecticut shows $575,100,000 in USAspending obligations on 2 awards.

  • The total is commitments, not completed construction or ridership.

Connecticut x 20.326 is a passenger-rail capital join

This page pairs CFDA 20.326, FEDERAL-STATE PARTNERSHIP FOR INTERCITY PASSENGER RAIL, with Connecticut place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $575,100,000 on 2 awards. The listing funds federal-state partnership awards for intercity passenger rail as the catalog names them. This extract does not list corridors, stations, or ridership. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state has better rail service, and not a claim that two awards equal two projects of equal scope.

Other DOT listings — highway, transit, or different FRA codes — sit outside $575,100,000 unless they also carry 20.326. Mixing this join with a highway total would invent a combined transportation figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and on-time performance is not causation. Ridership figures are not in the packet. Place of performance as Connecticut locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $575,100,000 in the state treasury, and it does not prove every dollar stayed inside the state after contracts.

Two awards at $287.55 million each if even

When award count is 2, a mechanical mean is $287,550,000 if $575,100,000 were divided evenly. That identity is arithmetic, not a published project budget, and the two rows can be unequal. Award count is a row count, including possible phases or modifications. It is not a count of stations, track-miles, or trains.

Two lines are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent recipient names or corridor titles. Open Federal-State Partnership for Intercity Passenger Rail in Connecticut for the stored table. Do not convert 2 into a map of Connecticut rail lines. The $575,100,000 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards. Inspect named lines rather than inferring completed construction.

Rail-partnership obligations are not trains already running

Capital rail awards often obligate in large grants and spend over multi-year construction. The $575,100,000 headline is the obligation sum, not a punch-list of completed trackwork and not a Treasury outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. An FRA grant announcement dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses CFDA 20.326, Connecticut geography, and the obligation metric.

Federal-state partnership in the title describes the assistance listing. This extract does not split Northeast Corridor work from other intercity routes, and it does not split design from construction. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 2 awards, CFDA 20.326, and Connecticut. This page will not invent a corridor share. Highway programs sit on other CFDA numbers. Two awards totaling $575,100,000 remain a partnership-listing file rather than an Amtrak operating ledger.

What the Connecticut 20.326 table omits

The extract has no ridership, no on-time statistic, and no mile-post map. Facts remain $575,100,000, 2 awards, CFDA 20.326, and Connecticut. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' passenger-rail joins. Mental-health and addiction research overlays in Connecticut are NIH listings, not transportation subsets.

Connecticut federal spending and Connecticut programs place 20.326 among other listings. CFDA 20.326 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other CFDA x state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of DOT spending the packet never computed. The $575,100,000 figure is the tagged pair only.
