450 Texas Road Projects to Receive Stimulus Funding

March 7, 2010 – On Monday, the Federal government agreed to release $26 billion in stimulus funding for American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) road construction. It is expected that around 450 projects in Texas will directly benefit from the stimulus dollars. ARRA funds will help cover the $12 million in Central Texas highway projects awarded last month, which is welcome news to Waco contractors on the payroll.

Bastrop contractors will be glad to hear that a $4.8 million turning-lane project for F.M. 20 now has funding.
