NDDOT gets $19.5M for tribal safety project

By Pat Sweeney Aug 9, 2022 | 2:19 PM

The U-S Department of Transportation has awarded $19.5 million dollars to the North Dakota D-O-T for a tribal safety project.

The project includes the installation of roundabouts, turn lanes, lighting, or rumble strips to improve safety on both the Standing Rock and Fort Berthold Indian Reservations.

The U-S D-O-T also awarded $1.5 million to the city of Fargo to study the replacement of the 12th Avenue North bridge, which residents use to access health care, the airport and the industrial park.

 

Officials say the bridge faces several challenges in its current condition, including frequent closures due to high water flooding on the Red River.

Funds were made available through the Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity grant program.

The awards were announced by North Dakota’s congressional delegation.
