Department of Transportation efficiency requirements provisions modifications

This bill modifies Minnesota's Department of Transportation (DOT) efficiency requirements, specifically changing how savings from transportation funding are used. It amends statutes to allow DOT to reallocate up to 17% of certain appropriations for program delivery and project selection, and expands the types of funds that can support the "corridors of commerce" program for highway construction and maintenance. The changes affect DOT operations and local governments participating in the corridors program by providing more flexibility in using efficiency savings. The bill takes effect July 1, 2025, applying to funds reallocated after that date.
