The Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT) announced Tuesday that the General Assembly and Gov. Mike Parson had approved $3.25 million for the department’s Freight Enhancement Program in fiscal year 2023.
The funding is the most the program has received in its 10-year history.
“The additional funding enables us to begin working on the recommendations of the State Freight and Rail Plan and Gov. Parson’s Supply Chain Task Force’s Final Report,” said MoDOT Administrator of Freight and Waterways Cheryl Ball. “The goal is to make a better, more resilient freight system in Missouri.”
