Primary Extensions/ State of Good Repair (SGR) Pavement Program
FY2024 eligible segments are now available in the Smart Portal. The application period for primary extension and local bridges ends December 16, 2022 at 5:00pm. Paving segments must be developed to meet federal requirements. There are two certifications that must be acknowledged in the Smart Portal. The Maintenance of Effort Certification in which localities certify funds received are in addition to and do not replace their current funding level and the Federal Certification in which localities acknowledge projects must be developed using federal guidelines and any funding received will be federal. In addition, a Detailed Project Cost Estimate is required to be uploaded with the primary extension applications. Local paving projects will require the “SGR Paving Projects Administration Request Form” to be uploaded to the Smart Portal. A link to the form is provided below.

Virginia localities must submit applications for SGR Primary Extension through the SMART Portal. The application/notification form in-take period starts on Oct. 17, 2022 and ends on Dec. 16, 2022 at 5p.m.
Based on a legislative change effective July 1, 2014, Section 33.2-358 provides that primary extensions maintained by municipalities can receive a portion of the reconstruction and paving allocations previously only distributed to interstate and primary roads with a combined condition index of less than 60.
The CTB approved an application process to allow municipalities to apply for this funding for qualifying projects. If you are interested in applying for these funds, key information on what qualifies and how to apply is below. In keeping with FHWA’s emphasis on the maintenance and operations of the National Highway System (NHS), VDOT continues to include additional points for segments on the NHS in the scoring and prioritization process.
This year the primary extension applications submitted for paving projects will be scored for funding with State of Good Repair (SGR) funds. If you are interested in applying for these funds, key information about what qualifies and how to apply is below.

Projects funded with Primary Extension and State of Good Repair funds
In keeping with the methodology and policy approved by the CTB, all bridge projects must have the appropriate phase started within 24 months of allocation/award of funding approval and all paving projects must be advertised within 6 months of the allocation/award of funding or be subject to deallocation. In order to ensure that projects are moving expeditiously once funding is approved; VDOT has established a process and criteria for deallocating funding for projects that are not moving forward per the policy. The SGR Primary Extension and Local Bridge Deallocation Process was shared with local governments and VDOT district offices on April 19, 2019 and can be found at the link below.
Please visit the State of Good Repair main webpage for information on the State of Good Repair Program. The main webpage includes information regarding program requirements and the most recent eligible pavement segments and eligible bridges.
