5 intersections in the city of phoenix

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) a Formula Grant totaling $7,976,840 under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on June 27, 2025. This grant funds the upgrade of traffic signals at five intersections located in Phoenix, Arizona. The project represents a transportation safety and infrastructure improvement initiative delivered through ADOT's Intermodal Transportation Division, which administers federal transportation funding for highway and multimodal infrastructure projects across the state.

Under the Highway Planning and Construction program, FHWA provides federal financial assistance to state departments of transportation for highway-related projects including safety enhancements and infrastructure improvements. The traffic signal upgrade project aligns with the program's eligible activities supporting transportation safety and intersection improvements. As a formula-allocated program under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), funding is apportioned to states on an annual basis, with state DOTs maintaining primary responsibility for project selection and administration in coordination with local officials. ADOT is responsible for design, environmental compliance, and construction oversight of the Phoenix intersection improvements.
