About this award

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $2.72 million to the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) on May 28, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to support the Knoxville Freeway Service Patrol (Help Trucks) initiative for fiscal years 2024-2026. This formula grant funds the operation and maintenance of a freeway service patrol program designed to provide rapid response assistance to motorists experiencing vehicle breakdowns, accidents, or other emergencies on Knoxville-area highways. The Help Trucks program enhances traffic flow, reduces congestion-related incidents, and improves public safety through prompt roadside assistance and incident management.

As a formula grant administered through the Federal-aid Highway Program authorized under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), this award reflects FHWA's commitment to supporting state-selected transportation safety and operational improvement projects. TDOT, as the primary transportation agency for Tennessee, has the capacity and experience managing similar federally-funded infrastructure and service programs. The three-year funding period enables sustained operation of the patrol service, contributing to enhanced mobility and safety on the Knoxville freeway network.
