Operational support to traffic management center FY26

The New York State Department of Transportation received a $818,610.20 Project Grant award from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) on September 8, 2025, with a completion date of September 30, 2034. This award funds operational support for the Traffic Management Center (TMC) facility in New York City, which provides computerized signalization management across all five boroughs. The project encompasses intelligent transportation system (ITS) infrastructure classified under categories TM06 and TM07, leveraging five transferred earmarks (NY369, NY386, NY397, NY536, NY645) to support ongoing TMC operations and maintenance.

The deliverables under this award include continuous operational and technical support services for the city's centralized traffic signal system, which monitors and controls traffic flow across New York City's transportation network. This funding enables the TMC to maintain and optimize the computerized signalization infrastructure that manages traffic patterns throughout the five boroughs, supporting the broader goals of the Highway Planning and Construction program to improve transportation system efficiency and safety through modern intelligent transportation technologies.
