The Maple Street Culvert repair project received $172,249 from the federal Gas Tax Fund in 2017.
The project, spanning from planning and design to the construction and completion, was completed in late 2018. An additional $195,446 was applied to the completed work, resulting in the project being 100 per cent funded by the federal Gas Tax Fund.
A commitment to safer and more efficient roads and bridges, the grant assisted in the replacement of two road crossing culverts on Maple Street between Kilman Road and Sixteen Road.
The federal Gas Tax Fund is a stable, predictable source of funding for municipal infrastructure. In 2019, the federal government announced a one-time transfer of an additional $2.2 billion to be delivered to municipal governments through the Gas Tax Fund. With this additional funding, the Town of Pelham is set to receive more than $1 million from the Fund in 2019.
