State transportation programs will be hit with another $851.5 million reduction over the next six years, state transportation officials said today.
That's actually a slight improvement from the August state transportation forecast. The state will receive slightly more than $30 million in additional federal funds to help with transportation.
The additional reductions in transportation spending will be made mainly in highway construction and maintenance and administrative and support services, state transportation officials are recommending.
Revenues for Virginia's six-year transportation plan have dropped $4.6 billion since the spring of 2008.
