This bill establishes a federal grant program to help cities hosting major international sporting events—the Olympics, Paralympics, and FIFA World Cups—improve their transportation infrastructure. The bill authorizes $50 million annually for host metropolitan areas within a 100-mile radius of event locations, with individual cities capped at $10 million per event. Eligible recipients include state and local governments, transit agencies, ports, and nonprofits managing event logistics. The bill also directs the Department of Transportation to provide technical assistance with transportation planning for five years before through 30 days after each event, and requires the Department of Commerce to study the travel and tourism impacts of hosting the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics and the 2026 FIFA World Cup shared by the United States, Mexico, and Canada.
