After dry spell, RIDOT projects set to hit the road

After a seven-month financial drought, the state Department of Transportation is about to resume the multimillion-dollar flow of contracts that build and repair the state’s highways and bridges, reports The Providence Journal's Bruce Landis.
Edmund T. Parker, the DOT’s chief engineer, told Landis his agency hopes to advertise 16 contracts, worth an estimated $29 million, for bids from contractors this month and next, after the release of $104 million by the Federal Highway Administration.
