Mill creek STR. & apprs. (S)

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $1.2 million to the Arkansas Department of Transportation on May 8, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). This formula grant funds the replacement of one bridge with a reinforced concrete box culvert on Mill Creek Street and Appurtenances in Arkansas. The project represents a typical infrastructure preservation activity supported through the Highway Planning and Construction program, which provides federal financial assistance to state departments of transportation for highway and bridge improvements that enhance transportation safety and infrastructure resilience.

As a formula grant under CFDA 20.205, these funds are part of the annual allocation provided to Arkansas through statutory formulas established under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA). The project will be administered by ArDOT, which maintains responsibility for design, construction oversight, and compliance with applicable environmental and procurement requirements. The bridge replacement work falls within eligible activities under the Federal-aid Highway Program and must meet established planning, design, environmental, and safety requirements prior to commencement.
