Highway, Street, And Bridge Construction federal obligations in California

Highway, Street, And Bridge Construction (NAICS 237310) shows $435,592,504.68 in USAspending.gov obligations with California as place of performance. Five hundred eighty awards sit behind that total. The join is a Census construction code crossed with a state location field, not California's entire transportation budget and not a count of miles. The dollars are commitments, not Treasury outlays.

Key figures

  • NAICS 237310 in California shows $435,592,504.68 in USAspending obligations on 580 awards.
  • The code is highway, street, and bridge construction, not buildings or transit operations.
  • Five hundred eighty awards are rows, not a mile or bridge census.
  • The total is commitments, not asphalt laid or a project ranking.

California x 237310 is a highway join, not a mile census

This page pairs NAICS 237310, HIGHWAY, STREET, AND BRIDGE CONSTRUCTION, with California place of performance. The code covers construction of highways, streets, roads, and bridges, not building construction and not transit operations. SpendingVault sums tagged obligations: $435,592,504.68 on 580 awards. The extract does not list projects, lane-miles, or agencies. Treat the pair as a catalog intersection, not a ranking of which state paves more, and not a claim that 580 awards equal 580 bridges.

Other construction codes — commercial buildings, heavy civil other than highways, or specialty trades — sit outside $435,592,504.68 unless they also carry 237310. Mixing highway construction with building construction would invent a combined infrastructure figure the packet never computed. Correlation between this obligation sum and vehicle-miles traveled is not causation. Traffic counts are not in the packet. Place of performance as California locates the tagged awards; it does not deposit $435,592,504.68 in a state highway account.

580 awards behind $435.6 million

Award count is a row count of tagged awards, including possible modifications, task orders, and multi-year construction vehicles. It is not a census of bridges, contractors, or miles. Mean obligation is about $751,022 if $435,592,504.68 were divided evenly across 580 lines — a mechanical ratio, not a typical highway contract, and not a published cost per mile. The packet has no highway-versus-bridge split inside 237310.

Five hundred eighty lines are too many to narrate one by one. Sort the California 237310 overlay by amount to see concentration. This page will not invent contractor or project names. Open NAICS 237310 for the national listing and California industries for other codes in the state. Do not convert 580 into a map of California job sites. The $435,592,504.68 total remains an obligation rollup on tagged awards.

What NAICS 237310 covers in this extract

The listing title is Highway, Street, And Bridge Construction. This extract does not split interstate work from local streets, nor does it split new construction from rehabilitation. Those cuts would require award documentation beyond dollars, 580 awards, NAICS 237310, and California. This page will not invent a project-type share.

Obligations are recorded commitments. Outlays are payments from the Treasury. The $435,592,504.68 headline is the obligation sum, not asphalt already laid and not a fiscal-year outlay total. No fiscal year is attached. A STIP document dated to a particular year is not automatically this join unless it uses NAICS 237310, California geography, and the obligation metric.

What the California highway-construction table omits

The extract has no lane-mile total, no project list, and no bridge inventory. Facts remain $435,592,504.68, 580 awards, NAICS 237310, and California. This page will not invent a ranking against other states' 237310 joins. Federal-aid and direct federal work can both sit in the file; the extract does not label them.

California federal spending and California industries place 237310 among other codes. NAICS 237310 is the national catalog line. All spending ties indexes other industry-by-state pairs. Mixing those shelves would invent a share of California construction the packet never computed. The $435,592,504.68 figure is the tagged pair only.

Where the 237310 x California overlay lives

Start with California federal spending for statewide context and NAICS 237310 for the nationwide industry listing. California industries lists other codes with California place of performance. All spending ties is the shelf for other NAICS x state pairs on the same obligation metric. Five hundred eighty awards are tagged rows, not a mile census. Project names and lane-miles are not in this packet.

Readers who need a different industry or a different state should leave this URL rather than adding numbers by hand. The $435,592,504.68 figure is the tagged NAICS 237310 × California pair only. USAspending.gov remains the source; SpendingVault republishes the join. Place of performance is a geography tag on awards, not proof that every dollar stayed inside California after obligation. If a later extract revises the rollup, this page's facts will be stale until the packet is rebuilt. Do not annualize $435,592,504.68 into a per-year run rate: no fiscal year is in the facts.

How to read the California × NAICS 237310 pair

A ties page exists because two tables meet. One table is the industry code (NAICS 237310). The other is place of performance as California. The headline $435,592,504.68 is the obligation sum on that intersection. It is not a forecast, not a budget request, and not an outlay. It is also not a claim that NAICS 237310 caused California's economy to grow, or that California caused NAICS 237310 awards to exist. Correlation between geography and a catalog code is the join — nothing more.

Use the internal links to step off this pair: the statewide spending shelf, the national industry listing, the state's other industrys, and the ties index. Each of those pages uses the same obligation metric unless a page says otherwise. If you need award-level names, open the overlay or the stored table rather than treating this narrative as a recipient directory. If you need a different metric — outlays, current-year only, or a different geography — that metric is not in this packet.
