Guidance on matching requirements for Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) funded grants and subgrants, including National Scenic Byways Program grants, has been issued by the FHWA. To provide more comprehensive and consolidated guidance that reflects current statutory and regulatory requirements, this guidance establishes uniform Federal-aid policy guidance for matching Federal-aid highway program projects.

The Federal Highway Administration is now seeking grant proposals for National Scenic Byways Program funding consideration for FY 2010. The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users; P.L. 109-59 as extended to February 28, 2010 authorizes five months of funding for FY 2010 at the FY 2009 level for the National Scenic Byways Program, subject to the obligation limitation. Additional funding may be made available pending further extensions or reauthorization.
