Background
The Municipal Agreement Solicitation Program is a new program that allows Cities and Counties in District 6 to compete for Trunk Highway funds for local projects. To qualify, these projects must provide a mutual benefit to the local community and to the trunk highway system.
The program presents an opportunity to advance locally initiated projects, within a relatively short planning horizon, that might not otherwise receive funding or program priority.
