The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $1,265,059.60 to the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on August 20, 2025, for the I-10 West Atchafalaya Basin project. The award, obligated through December 31, 2027, funds the installation of reflectorized raised pavement markers and plastic pavement striping tape along the designated corridor in Louisiana. These materials represent standard highway safety infrastructure improvements designed to enhance visibility and markings on the roadway.

This formula grant supports DOTD's ongoing responsibility as Louisiana's primary state transportation agency to maintain and improve the state's highway network. The project deliverables—reflectorized raised pavement markers and plastic pavement striping—constitute routine preservation and safety enhancement activities eligible under the Highway Planning and Construction program, which authorizes federal funding for highway construction, preservation, and improvement activities across the United States.
