Support for Bridges Act
This bill decreases from 63.7% to 49% the amount of a state's base apportionment of federal-aid highway funds slated for the national highway performance program. The bill also increases from 29.3% to 44% the state's apportionment for the surface transportation program (including federal-aid highway bridge construction and rehabilitation).
A state's obligation to commit for off-system bridges a specified amount of its apportionment of surface transportation block grant program funds shall continue for FY2016 and each ensuing fiscal year.
