Richmond deck and superstructure - #5

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $2.57 million to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) on July 16, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). The formula grant funds the Richmond Deck and Superstructure project #5, which encompasses construction and repair work on the deck and superstructure of two bridge structures (21161 and 21163) located on Route 95 in Petersburg, Virginia. This project represents targeted infrastructure investment in bridge rehabilitation and preservation, consistent with the program's emphasis on maintaining and improving the nation's transportation network.

Under the Highway Planning and Construction program, FHWA provides federal financial assistance to states for highway construction, preservation, and improvement activities authorized by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The Richmond Deck and Superstructure project falls within eligible bridge rehabilitation activities and will be administered by VDOT through established state transportation planning processes. The work will be performed in Virginia and managed through VDOT's established project administration procedures, subject to applicable federal oversight and environmental compliance requirements.
