Montgomery County Executive Ike Leggett and a host of elected local and federal officials recently celebrated the completion of a road repaving project that improved more than 43 miles of seven roadways using $6.744 million in American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funding.
The funds for this project employed 50 people -- 47 by the paving contractor and three contract inspectors hired by the County. The selected roads were designated as high priority projects by the County�s Department of Transportation (MCDOT) because of their deteriorated condition.
For the seven repaving projects, the Division of Highway Services (DHS) removed and replaced defective curbs, gutters, sidewalks and pavement surfaces; patched pavement; and installed pavement line markings and raised, reflective pavement markers.
See a list of the road projects with details of the improvements, plus other ARRA-funding for MCDOT.
