Bigley avenue CBD 8-9 bridges

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded the West Virginia Division of Highways a $900,000 formula grant on November 3, 2025, for a six-year bridge inspection project on Interstate 77 in Kanawha County. This award, likely funded under the Bridge Formula Program (CFDA 20.263) or Highway Planning and Construction Program (CFDA 20.205), supports critical infrastructure assessment activities for the Bigley Avenue CBD 8-9 Bridges project spanning milepost 100.735 to 101.183 near the junction of I-77 and WV 114. The inspection work is scheduled for completion by September 1, 2034, and represents part of the Division's broader portfolio of bridge rehabilitation, preservation, and safety improvement initiatives across West Virginia's state highway network.

As a state transportation agency, the West Virginia Division of Highways serves as the direct implementer of FHWA-funded transportation infrastructure projects statewide. This award reflects the division's core capability in bridge infrastructure assessment and preservation, consistent with its ongoing work on bridge rehabilitation projects throughout Kanawha County and across the state. The six-year inspection timeline and substantial funding allocation support comprehensive evaluation of bridge conditions to inform future maintenance and rehabilitation decisions within the I-77 corridor.
