State road construction gets $315 million federal funding boost

A new law appropriates $315 million from the Trunk Highway Fund in 2023 for state road construction.

Effective Feb. 8, 2023, the law allows the Department of Transportation to spend additional formula and discretionary grant dollars offered through the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act. The one-time appropriation is available until June 30, 2025.

Money may be used for construction, reconstruction and improvement of trunk highways, including payments for lands acquired for highway rights-of-way, payment to lessees, interest subsidies, and relocation expenses.

Rep. Erin Koegel (DFL-Spring Lake Park) and Sen. D. Scott Dibble (DFL-Mpls) sponsor the law.
