Wilmington-hinton avenue from park avenue to greenville avenue

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) a formula grant of $113,564.00 on August 12, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). The project involves the construction of a 10-foot multi-use path along Hinton Avenue in Wilmington, North Carolina, extending from Park Avenue to Greenville Avenue. This infrastructure improvement represents a pedestrian and bicycle facility development project consistent with the program's emphasis on multimodal transportation network enhancements and active transportation infrastructure.

The City of Wilmington serves as the sub-grantee responsible for project implementation and delivery of the multi-use path facility. As a component of NCDOT's comprehensive transportation planning and improvement initiatives, this project supports community-level pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure development aligned with federal priorities for safe, accessible, and sustainable transportation options. The formula grant structure reflects the statutory allocation methodology through which the FHWA distributes federal-aid highway funds to states for project selection and execution in coordination with local transportation planning authorities.
