This formula grant will fund the construction phase of local roadway improvement activities, with project completion anticipated by December 31, 2030.

The Highway Planning and Construction program provides federal financial assistance to states for highway construction, preservation, and improvement of transportation infrastructure authorized under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. As a federally assisted state-administered program, NJDOT was selected to implement this project through established transportation planning processes. The awarded funding will support the physical construction work necessary to improve these county roads, enhancing transportation infrastructure and safety within Atlantic County's local transportation network.
