MPO hears $372 million federal discretionary award toward canal bridges program
Rich Bilski (District 5) told the MPO that the region received a federal multimodal discretionary grant of $372,000,000 toward the Canal Bridges program. He said the Bridge Investment Program determinations are expected in February and that the Sagamore Bridge replacement is part of the broader program’s funding picture.

Members congratulated project staff and noted this award is a significant portion of the dollars needed for the Canal Bridges program; staff said they will bring more detailed updates to future MPO agendas as federal determinations and matching commitments evolve.

The announcement was made during District updates; no formal action or appropriation was taken at the meeting.
