MAINE MORNING STAR • January 20, 2024

The Maine Department of Transportation released a new three-year, $4.7 billion work plan Thursday that includes more than 2,600 capital projects, maintenance work and planning initiatives for 2024, 2025 and 2026. While the vast majority of that money — $3 billion — will go toward capital projects for Maine’s 8,800 miles of highway and 2,800 bridges, that still leaves more than a billion dollars for buses, trains, airports, ferries and more. Here’s a breakdown of all the non-highway projects MaineDOT has planned for the next three years.
