Funds for this program will be awarded on a first-come, first-serve basis. 

The FHWA has announced that approximately $7 million is still available to be programmed from the 2008 Highways for Life Pilot Program.

The purpose of the Highway for Life Program (HfL) is to incentivize states to build projects using innovative means to accelerate the deployment and implementation process. Previous HfL projects have been able to demonstrate that highways and bridges "can be built within weeks rather than years, with minimal impacts to the motorists, significantly better safety results, higher quality, and sometimes at a lower cost." - FHWA
