Highway Planning and Construction (CFDA 20.205) obligations tagged to Georgia total $6,830,575,663.15 on USAspending.gov across 2,439 awards. Georgia’s highway file is thinner in rows than Illinois or Pennsylvania in this slice and still sits in the billions. The join is FHWA 20.205 plus a GA place-of-performance tag, not an Atlanta congestion ranking and not a GDOT letting calendar. Two thousand four hundred thirty-nine Georgia highway actions are a mid-size Federal-aid grain; $6,830,575,663.15 is the GA-tagged 20.205 sum.

Federal-aid actions on a Georgia tag
Keep USAspending rows labeled HIGHWAY PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION whose geography is Georgia (GA). Two thousand four hundred thirty-nine awards remain. They sum to $6,830,575,663.15. CFDA 20.205 funds planning and construction through the state transportation department and local sponsors. The extract counts award actions, not unique Interstate miles.
The implied mean is about $2,800,600 per award — a bit higher than the Illinois and Pennsylvania implied means in this slice. A higher average can mean fewer small modifications in the mix, larger packages, or both. The packet does not say which.
Georgia federal spending is every CFDA on GA. CFDA 20.205 is the national highway file. Highway Planning And Construction in Georgia is the overlap. Georgia programs and All spending ties are the indexes.
GDOT and local sponsors generate 20.205 actions. Unique Interstate miles are unpublished. 2,439 is an action count.

Ports, Hartsfield, and what 20.205 leaves out
Airport improvement, transit, and freight-rail Catalog numbers are not inside $6,830,575,663.15. Georgia’s port and aviation stories need those joins separately. This page stays on Federal-aid highways.
Place-of-performance can follow GDOT or a project location. Work that crosses into Alabama, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, or Florida can still carry a GA tag. The 2,439-row file is not a district map.
State motor-fuel taxes and local SPLOST transportation votes are not USAspending 20.205.
Hartsfield-Jackson airport grants are not 20.205. Port projects that are not Federal-aid highways sit elsewhere.
