Highway Funding Transferability Improvement Act

This legislation, known as the Highway Funding Transferability Improvement Act , aims to enhance the flexibility of states in utilizing federal transportation dollars. It specifically amends Section 126(a) of title 23, United States Code , which governs the transferability of Federal-aid highway funds. The key provision of the bill is to increase the percentage of these funds that states can transfer between different programs. Currently set at 50 percent, the bill proposes to raise this limit to 75 percent . This change would allow states greater discretion in allocating resources to address their most pressing highway infrastructure needs.
