Blue Route funding hinges on state and federal support
PennDOT chief Thomas D. Larson warned no highway capital work, including the Blue Route, will proceed next year without $169 million in added state revenue and federal approval. The plan relies on Gov Thornburgh's proposed gasoline tax and fee increases, with potential consolidation of maintenance sheds and photo license stations if funds fail to materialize.
