Kansas transportation projects create and sustain good paying jobs throughout Kansas as illustrated on these documents. Road and bridge projects completed during the 1999-2009 Comprehensive Transportation Program (CTP) program resulted in work for highway contractors and sub contractors as well as hundreds of other companies impacted by the work. Hotels, insurance companies, restaurants, mechanics...dozens of industries received business when a major road or bridge project came to town.
Investing in sustaining our highways and bridges enhances safety and has a positive impact on the economy and create jobs like few other investments can. During the most recent 10 year program, university studies report $5 billion in construction spending sustained 115,000 jobs and returned $3 for every dollar invested in the Kansas economy.
