The American Recovery & Reinvestment Act requires that about $44 million of
Vermont’s $125 million bridge and roadway allocation must be obligated within 120
days of the date that the Federal Highway Administration apportions the funds –
which was March 2 – or states will lose up to 50 percent of the money apportioned
to them, as well as any eligibility for redistribution of funds recaptured from
other states. The rest of Vermont’s dedicated stimulus money must be obligated
within one year of apportionment.
Chosen projects also must comply with chapter 1 of title 23 of the United States
Code, which limits the use of stimulus funds to roadways that are part of the
Federal Highway Aid Network.
Vermont has more than 3,000 miles of roadway on the Federal Highway Aid Network.
Projects on the list below are being funded with stimulus funds.
