City of richmond: jahnke RD

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $932,300 to the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) on May 2, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to support preliminary engineering (PE) for two-lane improvements on Jahnke Road in Richmond, Virginia, specifically from Blakemore Road to Forest Hill Avenue. This Formula Grant allocation supports the planning and design phase necessary to advance the roadway improvement project prior to construction implementation.

VDOT, as the primary recipient, sub-awarded the funding to the City of Richmond to execute the preliminary engineering activities for the Jahnke Road corridor improvements. The preliminary engineering phase encompasses the technical planning, environmental reviews, design development, and specifications required to meet Federal Highway Administration standards and comply with applicable regulations under 23 CFR and the National Environmental Policy Act. This funding supports the foundational work required for the eventual construction phase of the two-lane roadway enhancement project.
