Texas × 20.205 is a highway-planning join, not a lane-mile score
This page pairs CFDA 20.205, HIGHWAY PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION, with Texas place of performance. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $15,461,694,323.61 on 3,355 awards. The join is FHWA's Highway Planning and Construction listing crossed with a Texas location field, not TxDOT's entire budget and not a census of lane-miles. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking, and not a claim that 3,355 awards equal that many lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates.
Bridge replacement, transit formula, and other DOT catalog lines sit outside this total unless they also carry 20.205. Correlation between this obligation sum and local need statistics is not causation. Those statistics are not in the packet. Texas (TX) excludes Oklahoma, Louisiana, New Mexico, and Arkansas. An award coded to Oklahoma is a different cell even if a crew crossed the Red River. Place of performance as Texas locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $15,461,694,323.61 in the state treasury.
3,355 FHWA rows at a mid-seven-figure mean
Mean obligation is about $4.61 million if $15,461,694,323.61 were divided evenly across 3,355 lines. That ratio is a quotient of two packet facts, not a published typical award. Three thousand three hundred fifty-five records is a thick FHWA assistance file: many more rows than a three-award SNAP cell, still not a project map of every Interstate. Award count is a row count, including possible continuations. It is not a census of lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates.
Three thousand three hundred fifty-five awards are scannable on the overlay. This page will not invent recipient names. Open Highway Planning And Construction in Texas for the stored table. Houston, Dallas–Fort Worth, Austin, San Antonio, and El Paso are unpublished cuts. Do not treat 3,355 as five metro project lists glued together. The $15,461,694,323.61 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

Questions
- How much Highway Planning And Construction funding is obligated in Texas?
- USAspending.gov shows $15,461,694,323.61 in obligations for CFDA 20.205 with Texas as place of performance, across 3,355 awards. The sum is a commitment total on assistance awards, not outlays and not Texas's entire federal-spending total. Other listings are outside this join unless they also carry 20.205.
- Do 3,355 awards equal 3,355 Texas highway projects?
- No. Award count is a row count of assistance awards and can include continuations. It is not a census of lane-miles, unique contractors, or named Interstates. The packet does not name recipients. See Highway Planning And Construction in Texas for named lines as USAspending stored them. The implied mean near $4.61 million is a ratio, not a typical unit.
- Is this Texas's entire Texas transportation budget?
- No. The join is CFDA 20.205 crossed with Texas place of performance. Related programs on other CFDA numbers are not inside $15,461,694,323.61 unless the award also carries 20.205. Bridge replacement, transit formula, and other DOT catalog lines sit outside this total unless they also carry 20.205. Mixing catalogs would invent a combined figure the packet never computed.
- Is the Highway Planning And Construction total already paid in Texas?
- Not on this metric. Obligations are recorded commitments on assistance awards. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $15,461,694,323.61 headline is the obligation rollup in SpendingVault's extract. Completed activity and remaining balances are not published in this packet.
