Bridge replacement - pamlico county

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $112,250.00 to the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) on May 12, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to replace Bridge #38 over Trent Creek on NC 55 in Pamlico County, North Carolina. This formula grant funds the bridge replacement project, which represents a critical infrastructure preservation activity eligible under the Federal-aid Highway Program authorized by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA).

Bridge replacement projects such as this one constitute a primary eligible activity under CFDA 20.205, supporting the program's objective to assist states in constructing, preserving, and improving highway infrastructure. NCDOT, as the state transportation department, is responsible for project administration, design, construction oversight, and compliance with applicable environmental and regulatory requirements. The funding reflects the FHWA's commitment to maintaining and enhancing North Carolina's transportation network through formula-allocated federal-aid highway resources distributed to states on an annual basis.
