The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $300,000 in formula grant funding to the State of Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) on August 13, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) for intersection improvement and construction work at the CR-484 and Marion Oaks Boulevard intersection. This project delivers infrastructure improvements designed to enhance safety, traffic flow, and overall transportation functionality at this critical intersection location in Florida. The funding supports the design, engineering, and construction activities necessary to complete the intersection improvement, consistent with FHWA's authorization under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to support highway construction, preservation, and related transportation infrastructure enhancements.

FDOT sub-awarded the project to Marion County, Inc. on August 14, 2025, enabling the county to execute the intersection improvement work at the local level. As a state-administered federal highway program, this award reflects the collaborative approach between state and local transportation agencies in identifying and delivering infrastructure priorities within established transportation planning processes. The project addresses local transportation needs while leveraging federal formula grant resources allocated to Florida under the Highway Planning and Construction program.
