FHWA STRATEGIC PLAN | FY 2022–2026

OVERVIEW

This Strategic Plan outlines the goals and objectives of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) from Fiscal Years (FY) 2022 to 2026, superseding the current FHWA Strategic Plan. This Plan was developed to align FHWA efforts with the FY 2022 to 2026 U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT) Strategic Plan and reflects the priorities of Agency leadership. FHWA’s Strategic Plan adopts U.S. DOT’s goals and objectives and aligns its strategies and related program initiatives and performance measures with the Department’s Plan. Some Agency performance measures will be included in reporting on U.S. DOT’s Agency Priority Goals. Other leading measures and indicators will be used internally to assess progress on an interim basis.

ORGANIZATION

The Federal government’s investment in highways and roads is critically important to the Nation’s highway system. As one of the operating administrations in the U.S. DOT, FHWA delivers Federal highway programs that make a positive contribution to the economic and social well-being of all Americans. With more than half of its approximately 2,700 employees working out of offices in every State, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, FHWA supports State and local governments in the design, construction, and maintenance of our Nation’s highway system through the Federalaid Highway Program and Federal Lands Highway Program.

The BIL provides around $550 billion over a 5-year period (FY 2022 through 2026) in new Federal investment in infrastructure, including roads, bridges, and mass transit; water infrastructure; resilience; and broadband. The BIL directs $350.8 billion of Federal investments to highway
