Web Version     CTDOT Awards more than $17.3 million in State Local Bridge Funding for 15 Projects Posted on July 7 , 2025 The Connecticut Department of Transportation (CTDOT) announced today more than $17.3 million in grants for 15 projects in Connecticut under the state-funded State Local Bridge Program. The State Local Bridge Program is a cost-matching grant program that provides 50% of project costs for locally owned bridges. Cities and towns administer all design and construction aspects of their projects, while the CTDOT oversees project milestones and provides guidance for the municipalities. "This program helps keep locally owned bridges in good repair, ensuring they remain safe and reliable for all travelers," said Connecticut Department of Transportation Commissioner Garrett Eucalitto. "As the program continues to deliver real results for communities both big and small, its popularity grows year after year. We're proud to support these efforts and get the projects to the finish line."

The Connecticut General Assembly created the Local Bridge Program in 1984 as part of the State's Infrastructure Renewal Program. In Connecticut, there are approximately 4,200 local bridges and culverts on locally maintained roads. Construction and maintenance of these structures is the responsibility of the cities and towns who own them. The State Local Bridge Program provides significant financial relief to municipalities.
