Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine signed a transportation bill allocating a two-year, $11 billion budget, including funds championed by the state trucking association, for new truck parking spaces.
“Transportation is vital to our state’s economy. It connects Ohioans to jobs, education, health care and entertainment. This budget reaffirms our commitment to providing our great state with a transportation system that is safe, reliable and prepared for the future,” DeWine noted recently while signing House Bill 54.
The budget takes effect July 1. More than 90% of the Ohio Department of Transportation’s new budget will go toward maintaining and improving the state’s roadway system, such as bridges, culverts, street signals, road signs, traffic lights, and snow and ice operations.
