Road 76 overpass

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $1,052,600 to the Washington State Department of Transportation on September 3, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) to extend Road 76 from Chapel Hill Boulevard to Burden Boulevard in Washington, including construction of an overpass across Interstate 182. The project scope encompasses bicycle and pedestrian facilities, installation of a traffic signal at the Road 76/Burden Boulevard intersection, and realignment of Burden Boulevard to support multimodal transportation connectivity and safety improvements.

The formula grant, with an ultimate completion date of December 31, 2030, represents a typical Highway Planning and Construction award supporting state-administered infrastructure improvements. This project aligns with the program's statutory mandate to assist states in constructing, preserving, and improving highways and related transportation infrastructure, with particular emphasis on pedestrian and bicycle facility enhancements as eligible activities under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act authorization.
