PennDOT Bids $70 Million in November
The state Department of Transportation (PennDOT) bid slightly over $70 million in projects in November bringing the year-to-date total to $1.861 billion. At this same point in 2011, PennDOT had bid $1.549 billion.
PennDOT revised its 2012 letting forecast to $1.8–$2 billion up from the initial $1.5 billion forecast. The upward revision was a result of additional monies realized from project close outs, 2011-12 winter savings and continued savings from an extremely competitive bidding market. PennDOT’s 2013 letting program forecast is $1.7 billion. Click here to view a chart of the PennDOT letting history since 1994.
