County Improvements for Roads and Bridges (CIRB) Funds
Title 69 § 507 & OAC 730:10-23
This state funded program through ODOT provides funding for construction or reconstruction of county roads or bridges on the county highway system that are of the highest priority as defined by the Transportation Commission. The program consists of state apportionments from the Motor Vehicle Collection Tax of 120 million dollars per state fiscal year. The monthly apportionments are divided in equal amounts between the eight ODOT Transportation Commission Districts. A five-year construction work plan, updated annually, is cooperatively developed and maintained by the Circuit Engineering Districts and the Local Government Division at ODOT. Approximately 75% of the five-year CIRB construction plan is funded with CIRB funds and the other 25% may come from federal Surface Transportation Program (STP), Tribal federal dollars, city or county local funds.

Accomplishments through May 2020:
NEWS
The COVID-19 situation has had a broad impact on the State including the reduction of tax revenues that fund maintenance and operations on the County Highway System. The Legislature and Governor with the passage of SB-1888 have been proactive in reallocation 35% of the FY 2021 CIRB funding back to counties' County Highway Fund to partially offset the funding shortfall projections, which were made by the Oklahoma Tax Commission.
