Roads, bridges and paving on federal land: the Federal Highway Administration's Federal Lands Highway divisions build in national parks and forests, and the military paves its bases. Most federal highway money goes to states as grants, so state transportation departments let most road contracts.
Set-asides: at least 29% of FY2026's road and bridge construction contract dollars ($677.29M) went through contracts set aside for small businesses, most through small business and hubzone set-asides. Many orders under larger contracts carry no set-aside code, so this counts only what is reported. How set-asides work →

How the government buys road and bridge construction work
- Construction contracts over $2,000 fall under the Davis-Bacon Act: workers must be paid the prevailing wages in the solicitation's wage determination, with certified weekly payrolls.
- Larger construction contracts require performance and payment bonds (the Miller Act), and many solicitations ask for a bid bond. Line up your bonding capacity before you bid.
- For road work funded by federal grants, look to your state transportation department's lettings, not SAM.gov.
