Bridge painting project, oswego county

Federal Grant Award Summary

On May 9, 2025, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $3.69 million to the New York State Department of Transportation (NYS DOT) through the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to support bridge painting and maintenance activities in Oswego County. This formula grant funds cyclical highway maintenance work designed to extend the service life of nine identified bridge structures (BINs 1000340, 1031930, 1036620, 1031940, 1029350, 1036700, 1031882, 1031881, and 1000360). Bridge painting constitutes a critical preservation activity that protects steel and concrete structural components from corrosion and environmental degradation, thereby deferring more costly rehabilitation or replacement projects.

As a federally assisted, state-administered program under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), the Highway Planning and Construction program provides annual formula-based allocations to state transportation departments for highway infrastructure preservation and improvement. The Oswego County bridge painting project reflects NYS DOT's ongoing portfolio of bridge maintenance initiatives and represents the department's strategic deployment of federal highway preservation funds to maintain critical transportation infrastructure assets across the state. NYS DOT assumes primary responsibility for project administration, design oversight, and construction management consistent with federal stewardship and oversight requirements.
