MaineDOT conceded in January 2019: “we are losing ground to the capital goals established in 23 MRSA §73(7)…there is clearly a substantial unmet need…in excess of $125 million per year.” Bidding for 11.6% of 2019’s DOT’s planned workload has been suspended for lack of funds. 2B-2’s funds ($79.25 million) would be better spent on Maine’s unmet transportation needs!!
