The Alabama Department of Transportation is inviting the public to give input on a draft Carbon Reduction Strategy. The comment period will end on Nov. 6, 2023.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law adopted in November 2021 created the Carbon Reduction Program (CRP). That program provides funds for states to reduce transportation emissions. ALDOT is creating a Carbon Reduction Strategy (CRS) to guide how to select and fund projects to reduce carbon emissions from transportation in Alabama.
It is Alabama’s vision to measurably reduce carbon dioxide emissions in the transportation sector by implementing a variety of strategies that will result in a cleaner environment for all Alabama citizens.
Alabama’s goals are to reduce vehicular carbon dioxide emissions to improve air quality and mitigate climate impacts, support and expand multimodal transportation options in urban and rural areas and apply transportation management strategies and technologies to improve overall network efficiency.
