Bill > SF1300

This bill proposes to statutorily appropriate 10% of the trunk highway fund to the Corridors of Commerce program, which provides funding for transportation projects that enhance the movement of freight and promote economic competitiveness. The bill also modifies the project selection criteria for the Corridors of Commerce program, requiring the Minnesota Department of Transportation to give equal weight to criteria such as return on investment, impacts on commerce and economic competitiveness, freight movement efficiency, traffic safety improvements, and regional balance throughout the state.
