SB 1309 modifies Oklahoma's funding for road and bridge projects by increasing annual allocations to the Rebuilding Oklahoma Access and Driver Safety Fund (ROADS Fund). It sets specific annual amounts: $100 million starting in fiscal year 2026 (up from $80 million), rising to $575 million for 2021, $590 million for 2022, and $610 million for 2025 onward. The bill requires the full annual amount to be allocated by July 30 each year and directs $2 million annually to the Heartland Flyer rail project and $3 million to public transit. These funds are exclusively for state highway construction, maintenance, debt service, and specific infrastructure projects managed by the Oklahoma Department of Transportation.
