On-call its / lighting operations and maintenance services

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) $2.14 million through a formula grant on November 10, 2025, for on-call Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) and lighting operations and maintenance services. The award, obligated through January 31, 2032, supports ongoing operational activities and preventive maintenance for ITS infrastructure and roadway lighting systems throughout Rhode Island. This funding falls under FHWA's highway planning and construction authority, enabling RIDOT to maintain critical transportation infrastructure that supports traffic management, safety, and visibility across the state's highway network.

The on-call services structure allows RIDOT to address routine maintenance needs, emergency repairs, and system upgrades for ITS equipment and lighting infrastructure on an as-needed basis throughout the extended performance period. Project Manager M. Wreh oversees execution of these operational and maintenance activities, which directly support Rhode Island's transportation infrastructure management objectives and align with FHWA's broader mission to maintain safe and functional highway systems.
