Ed Morrison · Politics of funding the Inner Belt bridge
July 9th, 2009
The NYT this morning looks at the distribution of transportation funding across the country. The article mentions the Inner Belt bridge.
Cleveland was initially promised $200 million of Ohio’s stimulus money to help build a five-lane bridge to replace the 50-year-old Innerbelt Bridge, which is so deteriorated that officials banned heavy truck traffic on it last fall. But state officials, worried about meeting federal deadlines, took back $115 million in stimulus money and decided to use it on shovel-ready projects elsewhere.
