San Diego County’s Fiscal Year 2015-2016 recommended budget was introduced on May 5, 2015 to the Board of Supervisors by Chief Administrative Office Helen Robbins-Meyers.

According to the San Diego County News Center, within the budget, $58.7 million is allocated towards transportation and infrastructure projects:

• $24 million – Maintaining Roads
• $13.3 million – Road Reconstruction and Improvements
• $1.3 million – New Sidewalks and Pathways
• $1.8 million – Traffic Signal Improvements
• $6.6 million – Intersection Improvements
• $3.2 million – Drainage Improvements
• $8.5 million – Ensure County Bridges Remain Structurally Sound and Safe

This means the region will need to ensure local construction aggregates supplies are available for these projects.
