Norfolk - replacement of bridge #06926 which carries mountain road over spaulding brook (CN).

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) a formula grant of $1,384,000 on August 7, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to fund the replacement of Bridge #06926, which carries Mountain Road over Spaulding Brook in Norfolk, Connecticut. This project involves the complete replacement of the existing bridge structure with no expansion of roadway capacity. The project will be administered under the Federal Lands Bridge Program (FLBP) with design managed by the state program.

The bridge replacement project represents infrastructure preservation work eligible for federal-aid highway funding, focusing on maintaining critical transportation connectivity and safety. CTDOT, as the state transportation authority and prime awardee, is responsible for project administration, oversight, and execution in coordination with FHWA. The funding supports design, engineering, and construction activities necessary to replace the aging bridge infrastructure in accordance with applicable federal environmental, design, and safety requirements under 23 CFR and 2 CFR 200.
