I-20: LA 371 to LA 154 pave mkgs

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded $656,349.60 to the Louisiana Department of Transportation and Development (DOTD) on March 17, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). This Formula Grant funds the removal and replacement of existing reflectorized raised pavement markers and plastic pavement striping along Interstate 20 between Louisiana Highway 371 and Louisiana Highway 154. The project enhances roadway safety and visibility through the installation of updated pavement marking systems on this critical transportation corridor.

As a state-administered transportation agency, DOTD executed this project directly without documented sub-awardees, consistent with its role as the primary administrator of federal-aid highway funds in Louisiana. The pavement marking improvements represent routine highway maintenance and safety enhancements eligible for funding under the Federal-aid Highway Program, which provides annual allocations to states for highway construction, preservation, and improvement activities on public roads meeting program eligibility criteria.
