Implement Security Projects (HLS Program):
This program provides competitive funding to public transportation agencies to protect critical high-risk surface transportation and the traveling public from acts of terrorism and to increase the resilience of transit infrastructure with eligibility based on daily ridership of transit systems serving key high-threat urban areas. It has identified critical infrastructure assets that are vital to the functionality and continuity of major high risk transit systems and whose incapacitation or destruction would have a debilitating effect on national security, public health, safety, or any combination thereof.
