The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded the State of South Dakota a formula grant of $2,730,106.93 under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on July 31, 2025. This award funds comprehensive urban infrastructure improvements on Routes 014, 014 E, and 014 W in Pierre, South Dakota. The project delivers multiple interconnected transportation and safety improvements, including urban grading, curb and gutter installation, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant curb ramps, traffic signal installation, storm sewer construction, street lighting improvements, and asphalt concrete surfacing along US Highway 14 from Sioux Avenue to the divided highway west of South Dakota 1804.

As a formula grant distributed through the FHWA's statutory allocation mechanism, this award represents the federal government's ongoing investment in state-administered highway planning and construction activities. The State of South Dakota, through the Office of the Governor, administers the project within established state transportation planning priorities and in coordination with local Pierre officials. The multifaceted scope addresses safety, accessibility, drainage, and surface quality improvements that are typical of urban highway modernization projects funded under the federal-aid highway program.
