Bill Summary

Relative to the transfer of funds in the Commonwealth Transportation Fund. Transportation.

AI Summary

This bill amends a section of the Massachusetts General Laws to specify that no funds, including any surplus, can be transferred from the Commonwealth Transportation Fund except pursuant to an appropriation. This aims to ensure that all transportation-related funds are allocated through the legislative appropriations process, rather than potentially being transferred for other purposes without the legislature's approval.
