Montgomery, Ala. (WDNews) – Governor Kay Ivey announced Monday that $3.1 million in state funds will be distributed to cities and counties across Alabama for road and bridge improvements. The funding is part of the Alabama Department of Transportation’s Annual Grant Program, created by the Rebuild Alabama Act. This program aims to enhance infrastructure throughout the state, with cities and counties contributing an additional $1.37 million in local matching funds.
Governor Ivey emphasized the importance of improving roads and bridges as a top priority of her administration. “Our work is not done, and we will continue delivering results in all 67 of our counties,” she said.
Since its passage in 2019, the Rebuild Alabama Act has helped fund projects across the state, with over $15 million awarded for local projects in the 2024 fiscal year alone.
Governor Ivey plans to visit DeKalb, Chilton, and Dale counties in October as part of her commitment to Alabama’s infrastructure improvements.
