This grant, the Intercity Bus Security Grant Program (IBSGP), is a federal initiative designed to bolster the nation’s critical transportation infrastructure against terrorist threats. Primarily intended to support fixed-route intercity and charter bus service operators, the funds aim to enhance security measures. As the vast majority of America’s critical infrastructure is owned and operated by state, local, and private sector entities, this program provides essential resources to these partners. The IBSGP is a key component of a broader federal strategy to mitigate risks, ensuring the safety and resilience of public transportation systems crucial for national security. It enables operators to implement vital security enhancements, contributing to a more secure and robust transportation network across the country.
