Iowa tribe of oklahoma transportation program funding FY 2026

The Federal Highway Administration awarded the Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma $1,251,667 on November 18, 2025, under the Tribal Transportation Program (CFDA 20.289) to fund transportation infrastructure and road access within the tribe's jurisdiction in Oklahoma.

The award provides transportation funding for the fiscal year 2026 under the FHWA's standing agreement with the tribe. Performance runs through September 30, 2026, with place of performance in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The Tribal Transportation Program aims to provide safe and adequate transportation and public road access to and within Indian lands and Alaska Native Village communities, contributing to economic development, self-determination, and employment of Indians and Native Americans.

The Iowa Tribe of Oklahoma, a federally recognized Native American tribe headquartered in Perkins, Oklahoma, serves 800 to 900 enrolled members and surrounding rural communities across Lincoln, Logan, Payne, and Oklahoma counties in central Oklahoma. This award represents one component of the tribe's approximately $3.4 million in annual Federal Highway Administration transportation funding, which supports road construction, bridge rehabilitation, and infrastructure maintenance across the tribe's jurisdiction. The tribe operates as a prime recipient across its federal grant portfolio and maintains demonstrated capacity to administer federal grants across multiple agencies.
