Audit: Guv’s plan not enough

The new audit of the Idaho Transportation Department looked at the governor’s $240 million proposal for increased funding, of which $137 million would go to ITD (much of the rest goes to local highway jurisdictions). It’s no permanent fix, the audit found. “Even with the requested $137 million revenue increase, preservation and rehabilitation of existing infrastructure will fall $55 million short through 2013,” the report predicts.
