National Transportation Enhancements Clearinghouse

Welcome to NTEC!
Communities across America are using Transportation Enhancements (TE) funds from the federal government to expand travel choice, strengthen the local economy, improve the quality of life, and protect the environment. The money for TE projects comes from a set-aside of 10% of the Surface Transportation Program; this amounts to roughly 1.5% of the overall Federal-aid Highway Program.

At the National Transportation Enhancements Clearinghouse (NTEC), we can help you learn how to use TE funds to revitalize the transportation experience in your community. Follow the links to learn the basics of the TE program or to access state-specific information. You can also order free documents or call us for assistance at our toll-free number.


Federal legislation related to TE is accessible through the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) TE Web site.
