The US state of Minnesota has plans for a total of 258 road construction and improvement projects in hand. The work is expected to cost a total of US$900 million during the 2011 financial year, compared with $1.3 billion in 2010. The projects budgeted for in 2011 include replacing Highway 52 Lafayette Bridge, repaving a 6.4km stretch of I-94 from the St Paul city limit to city-centre Minneapolis, a repair programme on I-35 motorway north of Minneapolis/St, and repair works on I-494 and I-169. However, the budget for the 2010 financial year did include funding from federal stimulus programmes.
