FHWA Bridge Program

The FHWA (Federal Highway Administration) Bridge Program provides federal funding and support to help repair, upgrade, and maintain the nation's bridges. It aims to ensure that bridges are safe, reliable, and able to accommodate evolving transportation needs. State and local agencies apply for these funds to fix or replace aging or structurally deficient bridges, reducing the risk of failures and improving transportation efficiency. The program emphasizes safety, infrastructure resilience, and modernization, playing a key role in maintaining a strong, safe, and efficient highway system across the United States.
