As leaders for strengthening a world class highway system through Safety, Infrastructure, Accountability, and Innovation, the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has an inherent responsibility to ensure that all people, regardless of Race, Color, National Origin, Sex, Age, Religion or Disability share in the benefits of transportation programs. Civil Rights laws and implementing regulations extend to every facet of the Federal-aid Highway Program. This includes the design and construction of highways–from planning to project development, right-of-way, safety, and protecting the human and natural environment.
The FHWA Resource Center Civil Rights (CR) Team is a team of subject matter experts committed to professional excellence and serving our customers with high quality products and timely services.
