The Federal Highway Administration awarded California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) a $617,500 Formula Grant under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on September 22, 2025, for the construction phase of an electric vehicle charging infrastructure project. The award funds the installation of seven direct current fast charging ports at 4211 Camino de la Plaza in San Diego, California. Construction activities include site preparation on an existing paved lot with minimal trenching (five feet or less), grading, and paving work. The project is expected to be completed by March 31, 2032, and supports California's broader participation in the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Corridor Group 16 initiative under Round 1 funding.

This award reflects the Federal Highway Administration's investment in multimodal transportation infrastructure and sustainable transportation alternatives. The project advances federal priorities in alternative fuel corridor development and represents one component of Caltrans' substantial federal grant portfolio for electric vehicle charging network expansion across California's major highways and corridors through 2035.
