FY26-DDOT-IPMA-Whitehurst Freeway Bridge Rehabilitation

The District of Columbia Department of Transportation is preparing to initiate a new project to rehabilitate and repair both the superstructure and substructure of the Whitehurst Freeway Bridge, with Phase 1 scheduled for funding in fiscal year 2024. This effort is part of a long-term infrastructure improvement plan aimed at enhancing the safety, durability, and functionality of a critical transportation asset. The project is currently in the forecasting stage, with the official solicitation expected to be released in July 2026, indicating that detailed planning, design, and procurement activities will follow in the coming years. While specific funding amounts, contractor requirements, or scope details have not yet been finalized, the initiative signals a commitment to maintaining vital infrastructure in the District. The work will likely involve extensive engineering analysis, structural assessments, and coordination with regional traffic management systems to minimize disruptions during construction.
