Write Up:
Accurate program cost estimates help MoDOT deliver more timely improvements for taxpayers. As of Sept. 29, 2023, 62 road and bridge projects were completed in fiscal year 2024 at a cost of $147.9 million. This represents a deviation of 2.6% ($3.8 million) less than the programmed cost of $144.1 million. Of the 62 road and bridge projects completed, 39% were completed within or below budget. In comparison, 62% were completed within or below budget as of the same date a year ago. There may be projects that have adjustments pending, which could cause a slight change in the final values. The road and bridge report has been updated to exclude certain payment projects such as TMC operations, Motorist Assist funding and work zone enforcement.
In addition, eight Multimodal projects were completed at a cost of $18.2 million - a -14.9% ($-3.2 million) difference from the programmed cost of $21.4 million. A total of 16 local public agency projects were completed at a cost of $27.4 million, -3.9% ($1.1 million) less than the programmed cost of $28.5 million.
The target is a 0% difference, indicating MoDOT is making timely use of available funds. Road and bridge, multimodal and local public agency projects were within -0.3% of the target in FY 2024. Program versus award numbers for FY 2024 reflect an award amount of 7.2 or $10.5 million above the program estimate. MoDOT continues to monitor this throughout the year.
Purpose of the Measure:
The measure determines how closely total project costs are compared to the programmed costs and final costs. The programmed cost is considered the project budget.
Measurement and Data Collection:
Completed project costs are reported during the fiscal year in which a project is completed. Road and bridge project costs include design, right-of-way purchases, utilities, construction, inspection and other miscellaneous costs. The programmed cost is based on the amount included in the most recently approved Statewide Transportation Improvement Plan. Completed costs include actual expenditures. Multimodal and local public agency project costs typically reflect state and/or federal funds but not local funding contributed toward such projects.
The target for this measure is set by internal policy and will not change unless policy changes.
