Butler County will receive over $8 million in state money this year to help maintain nearly 1,500 miles of roads through the liquid fuels tax.
The money, which is distributed annually to the county’s municipalities, comes from a state tax on the sale of fuel. The amount of money is determined by the population and miles of municipality-owned roads.
Cranberry Township will receive over $1 million to take care of 128 miles of roads; Butler Township will be awarded over $600,000 with nearly $500,000 going to Adams Township and Butler City receiving over $400,000 to maintain over 50 miles of roadways.
The money can help pay for construction, repair, and maintenance expenses of roads owned by municipalities. All 33 townships, 23 boroughs, and the city of Butler will receive some money through the liquid fuels tax program. For a detailed list, visit PennDOT’s website.
