Assessments
McBride's official FY2026 Community Project Funding disclosure page lists the Lewes-Georgetown Highway (US 9) Pedestrian Bridge as a funding request for $1,400,000, with a description matching phase one planning and engineering to improve trail-user safety and regional connectivity. Because the promise was to seek the funding, not necessarily secure final enactment or disbursement, the official same-term request satisfies the promised outcome.
