Local Bridge Improvement ProgramThe Local Bridge Improvement Program was reinstated by KDOT in 2019

to assist cities and counties by providing up to $150,000 toward the replacement or rehabilitation of a bridge on the local roadway system.

In October 2019, 27

counties were selected to receive a

combined total of $5 million.

Of the nearly 25,000 total bridges on the roadway system in Kansas, more than 4,600 are deficient or posted for less than the current legal load and are eligible for funding under this program.

More information on this program is available on KDOT’s website, www.ksdot.org, on the

middle right side of main page.

15

KDOT’s new Cost Share Program provides financial assistance to local entities for construction projects that improve safety, support job retention and growth, improve access or mobility, relieve congestion and help areas across the state improve the transportation system.

A minimum of 15% non-state cash match is required. Additional consideration will be given to project applications that commit more than the minimum required match amount.

Cost Share Program

During the program’s first request for applications in fall 2019, there were 22 projects selected. Funding for the $39 million in grant awards was part of the $216 million authorized by the Legislature and Gov. Laura Kelly to remain in the state highway fund in fiscal year 2020. An additional $34 million will be invested in locally matched dollars.
