Agricultural and Rural Road Improvement Program Act
This bill establishes a new federal program to improve rural roads critical for agriculture. It provides funding for projects that replace weight-limited bridges, enhance access to farms and agricultural facilities, and upgrade safety on high-risk rural roads. The program targets local roads and rural minor collectors, with the federal government covering up to 90% of eligible project costs. It directly affects rural communities and agricultural businesses by addressing infrastructure barriers to farm operations and local economic activity. The funding is allocated through existing highway apportionment formulas under Title 23, U.S. Code.
