Gas Tax Money Funds Local Paving Projects

MONTGOMERY – Governor Kay Ivey and the Alabama Department of Transportation on Thursday announced that $7 million in funding is being awarded to cities and counties for various local road and bridge projects.

In Northeast Alabama, the City of Piedmont will receive $250,000 for resurfacing 7 streets within the City. DeKalb County will receive $250,000 to assist with paving a portion of county road 51 from Alabama 68 to county road 30. Etowah County will receive $250,000 to assist with paving four streets in the Sardis City Community.

The funding is made available through the Annual Grant Program, a new program created under the Rebuild Alabama Act. The Rebuild Alabama Act requires ALDOT to establish an annual program setting aside $10 million off the top of the state’s share of new gas tax revenue for local road and bridge projects.
