CR46 bridge rehab over narrows channel

The Federal Highway Administration awarded $6.25 million on September 3, 2025, to the New York State Department of Transportation under the Highway Planning and Construction program (CFDA 20.205) for the CR 46 Bridge Rehabilitation project. The project, scheduled for completion by August 31, 2035, encompasses the replacement of the County Road 46 (William Floyd Parkway) bridge over Narrow Bay in the Town of Brookhaven, Suffolk County, New York. The bridge replacement addresses existing structural deficiencies, improves roadway alignment, and incorporates a protected shared-use path for pedestrians and bicyclists.

Funding for this project is structured as 95% federal support utilizing 15% toll credits and 5% local match, sourced through 2024 congressionally designated spending. As a project grant administered through the established Federal-aid Highway Program formula allocation process, this award represents investment in critical bridge infrastructure preservation and multimodal transportation connectivity improvements aligned with the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act priorities.
