What the highway and bridge construction–Washington join is
NAICS 237310 and place-of-performance state WA meet on this tie. $182,060,461 is the obligation sum on awards that carry both tags. It is not the nationwide total for highway and bridge construction, not Washington’s entire federal inflow, and not cash already paid. 237310 is highway, street, and bridge construction, not other heavy civil construction (237990) and not power-and-communication line construction (237130).
231 is an award-action count. Modifications, delivery orders, and repeat vehicles add rows. Unique vendors are not published in this packet. Dividing $182,060,461 by 231 yields about $788,141 per award on average. The join does not rank Washington against other states and does not assign a fiscal year; none is in the facts.

NAICS 237310 as the industry side
USAspending labels NAICS 237310 as Highway, Street, And Bridge Construction. Highway, Street, and Bridge Construction is a civil-construction code. The packet does not name routes, bridges, or contractors. Other heavy civil work sits on 237990. Washington also has refinery and irradiation-apparatus joins on this slice; those are different NAICS. The industry hub for NAICS 237310 does not require Washington geography; only this overlay applies both filters.
A second highway and bridge construction join in another state uses the same NAICS and a different dollar total. Do not treat Washington’s 237310 figure as a synonym for every highway and bridge construction award in the catalog. 237310 is highway, street, and bridge construction, not other heavy civil construction (237990) and not power-and-communication line construction (237130). Award titles on the NAICS 237310 page are the place to see what a given line bought.
Place of performance in Washington
Washington on this join is a USAspending geography field, not a claim that every dollar was disbursed to Washington residents. Washington POP is statewide, not a Seattle-versus-Spokane split. Ohio’s 237310 join is a different pair. An award can list WA while later work occurs in Oregon or Idaho; those states are not inside this total. Awards can list WA while later performance occurs elsewhere.
The state hub for Washington shows how NAICS 237310 sits beside other industries in the same geography. This packet does not split metros, counties, or congressional districts.

Award count, mean, and obligations
231 awards is a mid-volume construction file. Task orders and modifications add rows. The mean is not a typical mile-of-pavement price and not a unique-project census. Award count 231 is a record count, not a payment count and not a unique-contractor census. Readers who need transaction-level detail should use the Washington industries list and the NAICS 237310 hub.
An obligation is a legal commitment. $182,060,461 is that kind of sum. Outlays can lag. This packet has no outlay total and no fiscal-year split. Citing $182,060,461 as cash already spent in Washington over-reads the field.
What this pair does not prove
A large highway total in Washington does not prove the code caused the state’s freight mix. Correlation with ports and passes is expected; it is not a finding about pavement quality or waste. Keep $182,060,461 labeled as NAICS 237310 obligations with Washington place of performance. Campaign contributions and USAspending awards are different datasets; this page does not claim donations fund these obligations.
