Draft verification hold — the current live grant page says the 2026 application will tentatively open October 8 and close November 20 at 11:59 p.m., but a separate TIME Task Force calendar page still shows September 30. Final 2026 application and deadline-specific time zone are not yet published.

Georgia TIME Task Force and GDOT are preparing the 2026 TIME Task Force Grant for eligible Georgia city and county traffic-incident-management agencies. Awards may be up to $20,000 for approved TIM equipment. The current live program page states a tentative October 8-November 20, 2026 application window with an 11:59 p.m. deadline, but does not publish a deadline-specific time zone.
Required next actionMonitor the live TIME Task Force grant page and calendar for reconciliation of the October 8-November 20 tentative window versus the still-published September 30 calendar event. Require the final 2026 application form, exact deadline time zone, complete current checklist, and any amendments before applicant outreach. Once open, qualify specific Georgia city/county TIM agencies for Open Roads Policy endorsement, agency-head authorization, active TIM participation, current-grant overlap, equipment need, and GDOT pre-approval requirements; then clear verified business Contact, Email_Opt_Out, permanent hard bounce, Deal, Atlas_Email_Queue, authoritative prior-send, and cross-lane deduplication gates.
