From today’s SBJ:
The Missouri Department of Transportation is canceling its bid opening, originally planned for March 26, due to concerns about federal funding levels.
This is MoDOT’s second bid cancellation in as many months, according to a news release from the agency, representing approximately $130 million in highway and bridge projects.
When MoDOT canceled its Feb. 26 bid opening, officials said future bid openings were contingent on congressional action to fix highway and bridge funding.
