Just two weeks after Senator Thom Tillis identified the City of Brevard as the recipient of a $24.5 million RAISE grant for the Ecusta Trail, the Federal Highway Administration announced today that Brevard has been awarded a $21.4 million grant from the US Department of Transportation’s Nationally Significant Federal Lands and Tribal Projects Program (NSFLTP). According to NCDOT, the RAISE and NSFLTP grants have been dually awarded, bringing the total award to more than $45 million.
