A discussion on priority unfunded transportation needs will be the topic for a meeting with the Missouri Department of Transportation this evening in Trenton. MoDOT, working with its regional planning partners, has outlined a draft High Priority Unfunded Needs listing, which identifies $1.1 billion in annual unfunded transportation needs for the system. MoDOT says the list was created to guide the development of “needs” into funded projects as state and federal transportation funds become available.
The public is invited to review the list and provide feedback on the order of priorities that could be funded in the future. The meeting will be held today, from 4:30 to 6:00 pm at the Barton Farm Campus in Trenton. The presentation materials and a comment form are also available online at: https://www.modot.org/high-priority-unfunded-needs-public-meetings.
The draft lists include $4.4 billion in road and bridge needs in three tiers.
