Round 4 Funded Projects Announced – 6/06/23

- 7 bridges will be repaired with estimated costs exceeding $100,000, which requires Council approval.
- 3 bridges are being moved from the repair category to the replace category. This is because repairs would not be cost-beneficial and the local highway jurisdiction owning the bridge preferred going with a replacement.
- 10 bridges are being moved from testing & analysis to replacement.
- 18 bridges are funded for replacement. These are generally selected by priority of rankings approved in 2022.
