What estimated total cost did the 2015 FTA grant agreement give for SunRail Phase 2 South?

A 2015 Federal Transit Administration Full Funding Grant Agreement lists an estimated total project cost of USD 186,869,330, about half federally funded.

How to interpret the figure
The answer uses the total cost stated in the 2015 FTA grant profile. It is a grant-agreement estimate, not an audited final construction account; the amount is already in nominal USD.
