Pueblo of acoma transportation program funding FY 2025

The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) awarded the Pueblo of Acoma a Project Grant totaling $100.14 million on June 10, 2025, under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205). This award provides comprehensive transportation infrastructure funding to support the tribe's transportation needs and projects for fiscal year 2025. The grant is administered through FHWA's Office of Tribal Transportation (OTT) Program Agreement, which enables tribal governments to plan, develop, and implement transportation infrastructure improvements on tribal lands and public roads serving their communities.

The funding supports a broad range of transportation-related activities consistent with the Highway Planning and Construction program's authorized uses, including highway construction, preservation, and improvement; bridge rehabilitation and maintenance; roadway resurfacing; safety enhancements; and multimodal transportation network development. As a federally recognized Native American tribe with approximately 5,000 residents in Cibola County, New Mexico, the Pueblo of Acoma leverages this substantial federal transportation investment to address critical infrastructure needs within its community while maintaining tribal self-determination and sovereignty over project selection and administration.
