The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) is now accepting applications for Local Road Assistance Administration (LRA) funding. These funds, included in the amended FY2026 state budget, help local governments improve roads and infrastructure — and no local match is required.

Applications must be submitted through GDOT’s GRANTS (LMIG) Application System by June 15, 2026. To qualify, local governments must be in compliance with the Department of Audits and Accounts and the Department of Community Affairs. Applications also need a signed cover letter showing the status of the last three years’ LMIG grants and a signature page with both the local government and notary seals.

For help, contact your District State Aid Coordinator or the Local Grants Office at 404‑347‑0240 or LocalGrantsProgram@dot.ga.gov.
