Sussex Receives Nearly $118,000 in Road Funds

The final installment of the Department of Transportation's road and highway aid is rolling in, and Sussex receives some helpful money.

The Village of Sussex is receiving almost $118,000 this month for road construction and repairs from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation, Gov. Scott Walker announced.

The payment is the final installment of money distributed throughout 2011. This year local goverments shared an estimated $446 million to help develop roadways from the state transportation fund. October's checks totaled $111.5 million.

Sussex did not recieve any money from the Connecting Highways Aids, but rather the General Transportation Aids, so the village can use the money as it sees fit.
