An agency that already submitted an application will not be able to submit an additional application.<\/p>\n<p>In February the Michigan Department of Transportation (MDOT) announced the solicitation of applications for candidate projects for the Local Bridge Program. Selected projects will be funded during the 2024 fiscal year (FY). Do not submit projects which cannot be committed to construction within FY 2024. The applications can be submitted by the local agency owner or their consultant. All bridge applications submitted in previous years that have not been selected for funding have been discarded.<\/p>\n<p>The FY 2024 Local Bridge Program budget is estimated at $50 million. This amount may be subject to revisions. For more on this program please click here.<\/p>\n<p>All applications are to be electronically submitted by Monday, May 3rd, 2021. Click here for a link to the application.<\/p>\n<p>If you have any questions or need further information, please contact Keith Cooper, Bridge Program Manager, at 517-331-1395 or at CooperK@Michigan.gov.<\/p>\n<p><em>John LaMacchia is the Assistant Director of State and Federal Affairs for the League handling transportation, infrastructure, energy and environment issues.
