Bridge Guidance
Important Notes:
- Final applications are due to the Regional Office on October 31, 2025.
- Contact your Regional Local Program Manager for information regarding these applications.
- Beginning this program cycle, federal participation will be capped at $10 million per local bridge program project.
Counties, cities, villages, and towns are eligible for funding through the Local Bridge Program based on identification through the Bridge Project Scope Eligibility List. Each county is responsible to review and prioritize eligible bridge projects within that county. Inclusion in the Bridge Project Scope Eligibility List is based on the county’s most recent inspection prior to February 17, 2025. Eligibility for the list is determined by noted deficiencies in the most recent inspection, along with an extrapolation of those deficiencies into future years.
Program funding levels will be updated as necessary pending state biennial budget changes and federal reauthorization.
