S 1218 Idaho Senate · 68th Legislature, 1st Regular Session (2025)

IDAHO TRANSPORTATION DEPARTMENT – FUNDING – Relates to the funding of the Idaho Transportation Department for fiscal years 2025 and 2026.

Idaho's S 1218 allocates $237 million in state and federal funds to the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) for fiscal years 2025-2026, directly affecting highway maintenance, airport projects, and local road programs. The bill includes $165 million transferred from the General Fund to the Strategic Initiatives Program and $110 million to the Local Highway Distribution Fund for immediate allocation. It also reduces certain ITD personnel costs by $101,900 and allows unused funds from 2025 to be reused for capital projects, airport grants, and construction. These provisions ensure ongoing transportation infrastructure work, including highway operations and airport development, without new taxes or fees.
