SUMMARY AS PASSED SENATE: (all summaries)

Bridges; state of good repair; allocation of funds. Designates bridges with a general condition rating, defined in the bill, of no more than five for at least one major bridge component as eligible for state of good repair funds. Currently, bridges must be structurally deficient to be eligible. The bill authorizes the use of state of good repair funds for improvements anticipated to extend the useful life of a bridge by at least 10 years. The bill changes the funding distribution standard from equitable needs-based distribution, with percentage limits for a given district and a process to exceed such limits when necessary, to needs-based distribution of funding among the highway construction districts. The provisions of the bill apply to new project allocations made by the Commonwealth Transportation Board after June 1, 2024.
