Source: Florida Department of Transportation, 1993. <br />3, Total approximate Transportation Facilities Funding for Orange County from 1998 to 2004 = <br />$150,250,000, Source: NC DOT's 1998 to 2004 State Transportation Improvement Program. <br />In other words, the 1.31 million dollars required to construct bicycling facilities for Orange County <br />by the year 2005 is less than 1 % of the total amount of funds allocated to Orange County for the <br />construction of transportation facilities from 1998 to 2004. <br />4. This table is only for illustrative purposes only. Better cost estimates can be developed by NC DOT staff using more <br />up to date unit cost estimate factors for 4' paved shoulders and also by providing unit cost estimates for constructing <br />additional lane width on existing roads. <br />
