RIDOT, Rhode Island Commerce Corporation and Statewide Planning have reviewed new project applications received for the 2022-2023 Municipal Road and Bridge Revolving Loan Fund, which supports local road and bridge improvements across Rhode Island. The proposed infrastructure plans have been evaluated, eligible projects identified, and a Project Priority List (PPL) has been developed for the 2022-2023 program, which has been provided to the Rhode Island Infrastructure Bank (RIIB) and Division of Statewide Planning. Due to availability of funding, all communities that applied for funding were included on the list and are eligible for funding, subject to the rules and requirements of RIIB.
The draft PPL (below) and public hearing are linked below and serve to provide the required 10 business days’ public notice. If you have any additional questions regarding the PPL, please direct them to Ferdinand Ihenacho at 401-563-4467 or DOT.Planning@dot.ri.gov.
