Abstract The "Fiscal Year Statistical Summaries" present selected analyzed data on the distribution and use of various formula and discretionary program funds for transit. The programs discussed are the principal source of Federal financial aid to urban and non-urban areas for mass transportation. The data is compiled from the capital, operating, and planning assistance grants awarded in fiscal year 1991 to transit authorities, states, metropolitan planning agencies, and other units of local governments. The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) obligated a total of $3.3 billion in Fiscal Year 1991. Of this about 73% was programmed for capital purposes; 25% for operating expenditures, and the remaining 2% for planning assistance. The urbanized areas with populations over 1 million received about 73% of the total grant funds obligated (funds for Washington, D.C. Metro not included). The document includes over 50 charts, graphs, and tables describing different aspects of the FTA grant programs. They include both overview material and specifics on funding of some individual urban modes (most notably rail cars and ferry systems). In FY 1991 a table was added showing FTA's financial involvement in busways and HOV lanes.
