The State Transprtation Board decided on Friday to move forward with 41 highway projects with federal funding under the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act. The board narrowed down a list of more than 100 ready-to-go projects statewide. The approved projects include pavement preservation on US 60 from Miami to McMillan Wash and shoulder widening on State Route 87 between Payson and Pine.
The Arizona Department of Transportation will receive about $350 million in economic recovery funds. The projects are estimated to create more than 13,000 jobs statewide.
