Bill > HB1820

This bill establishes a new Supplemental Roads and Bridges Account within the Motor License Fund to support infrastructure improvements in Pennsylvania. The bill mandates transfers totaling $2.5 billion from the Budget Stabilization Reserve Fund (also known as the "rainy day fund") to this new account over five years, with $500 million transferred initially within 30 days of the bill's effective date, and subsequent $500 million transfers occurring annually on July 1st from 2026 to 2029. The account will be used exclusively for funding projects related to the construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation, maintenance, and repair of roads and bridges throughout the Commonwealth. The account will receive not only these mandated transfers but also any interest earned on its funds and potentially other appropriated or transferred amounts. Money in the account will be continuously appropriated to the department responsible for transportation infrastructure, ensuring a dedicated funding stream for critical road and bridge improvements. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage.
