An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in supplemental funding for municipal highway maintenance, further providing for supplemental funding for municipal highway maintenance; and, in taxes for highway maintenance and construction, further providing for imposition of tax.

Summary

The measure sets up a yearly $5 million (or more) allocation from the Motor License Fund to counties for bridge construction and upkeep, using bridge deck‑area ratios to determine each county’s share. It also imposes an additional 55‑mill tax on all liquid fuels, directing a portion of that revenue to the same bridge‑funding pool. Counties – and first‑class cities treated as counties – may use the money for bridges owned by municipalities, with funding levels protected unless bridge deck area declines.
