FY 2026 Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP) Awards

On October 27, 2026, the Secretary of Transportation announced the final grant recipients for the Fiscal Year (FY) 2026 Port Infrastructure Development Program (PIDP).

Administered by the Maritime Administration (MARAD), the PIDP is a competitive, discretionary grant program that funds both planning and capital projects. The program aims to modernize port and freight infrastructure, ensuring it can meet anticipated growth in freight volumes while improving the safety, efficiency, and reliability of goods moving through our nation’s supply chains.

PIDP grants support industry stakeholders across the country, providing critical funding to ports in both urban and rural areas. The program also includes a statutory set-aside specifically dedicated to small ports, helping them expand their capacity, move freight reliably, and drive local and regional economic growth.

FY 2026 Funding Breakdown 

For the 2026 cycle, MARAD had $497,856,104.61 available for PIDP awards (after retaining a standard portion for grant administration and oversight). This funding was assembled from three key sources:

• $450,000,000 from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), representing the final installment of the $2.25 billion five-year commitment (2022–2026).
• $38,628,000 in discretionary grant funding appropriated through the FY 2026 Appropriations Act.
• $19,000,664.61 in unexpended and reallocated funds recovered from prior-year PIDP awards.

The application period for the FY 2026 PIDP cycle is now closed.
