The funding is used to promote the deployment of proven innovations that can deliver road and bridge projects more cost-effectively among state, local and tribal governments. “Using innovative tools and techniques requires creativity and investment,” Acting Federal Highway Administrator Stephanie Pollack said in a statement. “These grants can help our partners access important resources to reduce the time and money needed to build and repair roads, bridges, and highways while improving safety and mobility.”
