Action Taken by Governor Phil Scott on Legislation

Press Release

"This year's T-Bill is the largest ever, making significant investments in Vermont's infrastructure. It includes over $140 million for paving projects, covering more than 450 miles of improvements; $18.2 million for bicycle, pedestrian, and transportation alternatives program funding, going to 55 construction projects and the design of 37 additional projects across 77 Vermont communities; historic funding at $48.8 million for public transit; and $43 million in rail projects. It also takes important steps to reduce carbon emissions from the transportation sector by investing $27.9 million across multiple efforts, including expanding EV charging.

"I want to thank members of the transportation committees, especially committee chairs Senator Mazza and Representative Coffey, for their collaboration with my Administration on many initiatives. The investments made in this bill will benefit Vermonters for years to come."
