  • information on the condition of pavements and bridges;
  • an estimate of the amounts needed to bring such corridor into a state of good repair, taking into consideration any planned future investments; and
  • at its discretion, a request that the state provide funding to address the condition of the corridor.

The bill sets forth the criteria the NPS must consider when making a determination of whether a a high-commuter corridor requires additional investment.
