Capital Projects Funds
Capital Projects Funds are used to account for financial resources to be used for the acquisition or construction of major capital facilities and infrastructure (other than those financed by proprietary funds, trust funds, and higher education funds). Significant Capital Projects Funds are described as follows:
State Facilities:
to account for proceeds of bond issues and other sources and the subsequent expenditures
for the construction of various state buildings and structures.
Infrastructure:
to account for the proceeds of bond issues and related capital project grants to finance
the State's transportation infrastructure program over a ten-year period. This
program encompasses the planning, acquisition, removal, construction, equipping,
reconstruction, repair, rehabilitation and improvement of, and acquisition of easements
and rights-of-way with respect to, State highways and bridges, projects on the interstate
highway system, alternate highway projects in the interstate substitution program (the
"interstate trade-in program"), waterway facilities, aeronautic facilities
(excluding Bradley International Airport), the highway safety program, maintenance garages
and administrative facilities of the Department, payment of the State's share of the
costs of the local bridge program and payment of State contributions to the local bridge
revolving fund.
