Bill > S726

This bill appropriates $9.5 million in nonrecurring funds from the Highway Fund to the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) specifically for the planning and design of the Westmoreland Road Interchange, which is located at Interstate 77 Exit 27 in the Town of Cornelius. The funds are designated for the 2025-2026 fiscal year and will support the initial stages of developing this transportation infrastructure project. The bill specifies that these are nonrecurring funds, meaning they are a one-time allocation rather than a recurring annual expense. The legislation will take effect on July 1, 2025, which marks the beginning of the state's fiscal year, and aims to advance the preliminary work needed to improve transportation infrastructure in the Cornelius area by supporting the design and planning phase of the interchange project.
