Modot Funding DISTRIBUTION MoDOT Funding DISTRIBUTION How is MoDOT’s Funding Distributed Across the State? Since 2003, the Missouri Highways and Transportation Commission has used a formula to distribute construction program funds for road and bridge improvements to each of its seven districts. This is the largest area of MoDOT’s budget that provides funding for safety improvements, taking care of the system and flexible funds that districts can use to take care of the system or invest in major projects that relieve congestion and spur economic growth. In many districts, taking care of the system funds are not sufficient to maintain current system conditions. Districts use flexible funds to make up the difference. Construction program funds are allocated annually to districts using the following formula: Total Distributed Construction Program Funds Safety $3 million distributed for statewide program $32 million distributed based on three-year $35 Million crash rates $310 million distributed based on Taking Care of amount of highway travel, bridge size the System and highway miles $435 Million $125 million distributed for statewide interstate and major bridge needs Flexible* Distributed based on population, *In 2020, $563 million of Flexible Remaining Funds employment and funds were distributed, of which highway travel $466 million was used for taking care of our system. 20 Citizen’s Guide to Transportation Funding in Missouri CATEGORY ORDER: 4.3% 4.8% Safety % 8.9% 7.6% Taking Care of the System % 4.6% 4.7% Flexible % 20.1% This map shows the 18.3% percentage of funds 21.0% from each category that 33.9% are distributed to each 11.0% 23.4% district, based on 2020 34.5% factors.

The regional transportation improvement plans are brought together to form the department’s Statewide Transportation Improvement Program, which outlines five years of transportation improvements. As one year of the plan is accomplished, another year is added. Citizen’s Guide to Transportation Funding in Missouri 21 MoDOT Funding DISTRIBUTION There are two types of regional planning groups in the state: urban areas have Metropolitan Planning Organizations, and rural areas have Regional Planning Commissions. Board members for each of these groups are typically city and county leadership, elected officials and local business owners. The regional planning groups reach out to local citizens to MoDOT’s planning identify transportation needs. framework involves MoDOT staff assists regions local citizens from start to finish – an to prioritize those needs approach that has based on road and bridge earned MoDOT conditions, traffic safety data recognition as a and overall mobility. The national leader in prioritization process also public involvement. includes balancing priorities with available funds. Funding for MoDOT operations consists of costs for staff and expenses for maintenance, fleet, facilities and information systems activities. The funding distribution for MoDOT staff costs is based on the number of personnel needed in each district to provide the services to the public, including snow removal, mowing right of way and maintaining roadsides. The budget for expenses, such as salt, paint and fuel, are distributed to districts based on the number of highway miles, highway travel and minor roads that are in poor condition. 22 Citizen’s Guide to Transportation Funding in Missouri WORTH Memphis ATCHISON Maryville PUTNAM SCHUYLER H!

  • Sedalia Regional Airport Medical, School and Park Areas
    bothwell regional health center W ELCOME TO SEDALIA Sedalia Missouri is a community with many assets. Specifi cally, the assets that have made and will continue to make this a very sustainable community, are related but not limited to these entities: diverse industries and employment opportunities, strong public and private educational sources, engaged city and county governments and very active community organizations. But then we come to what I feel is the most admirable asset to the City of Sedalia, MO … THE PEOPLE! In a very un-selfi sh manner, the residents continue to donate their time and money to sustaining and improving the city and providing an excellent place to raise a family, conduct business and provide many ways to enjoy life. What is the Chamber of Commerce’s role in all of this? The Chamber of Commerce should work to bring a variety of opportunities to the city and work well with Economic Development to reinforce why businesses need to consider the City of Sedalia as the right place to open up shop. Finally, sustaining and continually providing value to our existing Chamber of Commerce members is crucially important and a priority of the Chamber of Commerce Board. Supporting all of our existing Chamber members is very important, as they are investing every day into their businesses and we need to continue to support them and spread the word that Sedalia, MO is a great place to come and shop. I am very proud to have been elected as the President of the Chamber of Commerce for Sedalia, MO.
