The results of the trial program will be evaluated in 2001. Funding for non-state jurisdictional highways in counties and cities is based on miles of roads. In special instances, tax districts are formed to get a particular project done. However, counties typically support their roads through general county funds. Approximately 25 percent of federal transportation funding goes to local governments, including MPOs.
Local agencies can apply for the federal funding.
Program administration is provided through the Local Transportation Section of the Division of Program Development. Also statewide forums are held periodically to obtain input on statewide planning issues.
