Mass D-O-T has approved a five-year capital plan to improve transportation and create jobs across the state.
The 20-point-7 billion dollar plan includes 4-point-4 billion from fair share revenues.
That money will fund critical improvements to roads, bridges, culverts, rail and transit infrastructure.
Here in Western Massachusetts, funding will support West East Rail,
the replacement of the North End Bridge between Springfield and West Springfield,
and the I-391 bridge replacement over Chicopee Street in Chicopee.
The plan covers fiscal years 20-27 through 20-31.
