Of that $13.2 billion, the draft STIP details $9.5 billion in road and bridge construction contractor awards, with another $1.7 billion of General Revenue for the Improve I-70 (eye-70) program and $2.8 billion for the costs to plan, design, construct, reconstruct, rehabilitate and repair nearly 200 miles of the corridor.

The STIP also calls for more than $577 million for Interstate-44 improvements.
