Road improvement and construction-alternate route from I-80.

HB 127 proposed appropriating $10 million from Wyoming's general fund to the Department of Transportation for planning and constructing alternate routes parallel to I-80 in Sweetwater County. The bill specifically targeted communities impacted by mineral development (mining traffic causing road congestion) to improve connectivity between municipalities. Funds were required to be spent by June 30, 2026, with unspent amounts reverting to the state. The bill failed to pass in the House committee on February 17, 2022, with a 28-31 vote.
