Though the Accelerated Innovation Deployment Demonstration Program, funds can be used to make projects dedicated to roads and bridges more cost-effective among local, state, and tribal governments.
“Using innovative tools and techniques requires creativity and investment,” said Acting Federal Highway Administrator Stephanie Pollack. “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.”
AID grants are incentives to help in any phase of eligible highway transportation projects—from planning and financing to engineering and construction. Eligible entities include state departments of transportation (DOT), federal lands management agencies, and tribal governments. State DOTs may also apply on behalf of metropolitan planning organizations and local governments.
Since its creation in 2014, the AID Demonstration Program has awarded more than $86 million for 117 grants to accelerate the use of innovative practices and improve safety throughout the nation.
