Provide for cities of the primary class and certain counties to receive grants relating to certain highways
This bill provides $15 million in state funding to cities with populations over 50,000 and their surrounding counties for road projects connecting local highways to the interstate system. It requires these cities and counties to submit annual reports tracking grant usage and repay any unused funds to the state. The grants specifically fund infrastructure projects that link city roads to the National System of Interstate and Defense Highways. The funding is allocated for fiscal year 2025-26, with the bill declared an emergency to expedite implementation.
