100% Delivery of 2015 Obligation Authority!

by

The Caltrans’ Division of Local Assistance would like to congratulate our local partners for delivering 100% of the 2015 obligation authority (OA)!

Approximately $1.19 billion of federal-aid OA was obligated to fund projects. This is the 16th consecutive year where the regions and local agencies have achieved 100% delivery of OA.

Through one of the largest and strongest partnerships of local, regional, state and federal governments, California citizens are receiving needed transportation improvements including local streets, bicycle, transit, and highway projects.

We look forward to continuing this partnership in 2016 and again delivering 100% of our OA!
