New CT infrastructure program completes first project

A state program created last year to help eliminate red tape and delays municipalities can run into when seeking federal reimbursement for road and transportation improvements has completed its first project, Gov. Dannel P. Malloy’s office announced.

The project was replacing approximately 5,000 feet of pavement on Kennedy Road in Windsor, which cost $775,000.

The Local Transportation Capital Improvement Program, administered by the state Department of Transportation and 13 regional planning organizations, works with projects eligible for federal funds from the federal DOT’s Surface Transportation Urban Program.

State DOT officials distribute funding to municipalities with qualifying projects, and then seek reimbursement from the federal agency, instead of the local city or town doing it.

The legislature authorized $45 million a year for the LOTCIP, which has funded approximately 40 projects so far.
