The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $4,798,292.00 to the New York State Department of Transportation under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on May 21, 2025. The Culvert Resiliency Project Contract 3 focuses on the replacement and rehabilitation of large culverts within New York's state transportation system, with emphasis on safety enhancement, infrastructure durability, and hydraulic resiliency. The project directly supports the state's economic development and environmental stewardship objectives while addressing climate resilience priorities under the PROTECT (Promoting Resilient Operations for Transformative, Efficient, and Cost-Saving Transportation) program eligibility criteria.

The deliverables encompass the physical replacement and rehabilitation of existing culvert infrastructure on state-maintained roadways, identified by contract identification numbers C240056, C240072, and C260106. By upgrading these critical drainage and conveyance structures, the project enhances flood resilience, improves hydraulic performance, and ensures safety compliance across the state's extensive transportation network. This formula grant award represents continued federal investment in transportation infrastructure preservation and resilience within New York State.
