More funding for state roads and bridges
The state provides $1.75 billion to the Department of Transportation for July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2027. The money comes from special funds and federal funds. It covers salaries ($219.3 million), operating costs ($316.3 million), capital assets like roads and bridges ($1.101 billion), and grants ($112.8 million). The law authorizes 1,001 full-time jobs. The Office of Management and Budget may move money between these line items when the DOT director asks and it is cost‑effective for highway construction and maintenance.
