ILC Infrastructure Support Program

Overview

The purpose of the Intermodal Logistics Center (ILC) Infrastructure Support Program is to provide funds for roads, rail facilities, or other means for the conveyance or shipment of goods through a seaport. The department may provide funds to assist with local government projects or projects performed by private entities that meet the public purpose of enhancing transportation facilities for the conveyance or shipment of goods through a seaport to or from an intermodal logistics center (ILC).

Applications are now being accepted for funding consideration through fiscal year 2029-2030. Beginning with the 2024-2025 fiscal year, $15 million in recurring funds shall be made available from the State Transportation Trust Fund for the program.

Applications are accepted on a rolling basis. Submissions will be reviewed for funding consideration in the order of applications received. All submissions may be considered for funding in current and future years. Consideration will be made up until the closing date of the next tentative work program for any given fiscal year.

To be considered eligible for funding under the ILC Infrastructure Support Program, a Project must meet the criteria established in Section 311.101(3), F.S., and in 14-118 Florida Administrative Code (FAC).

What is an ILC?

Per 311.101, F.S., the term “intermodal logistics center,” including, but not limited to, an “inland port,” means a facility or group of facilities serving as a point of intermodal transfer of freight in a specific area physically separated from a seaport where activities relating to transport, logistics, goods distribution, consolidation, or value-added activities are carried out and whose activities and services are designed to support or be supported by conveyance or shipping through one or more seaports listed in 311.09, F.S..
