$44 million in stimulus funds for Akron-Canton area

By Beacon Journal staff

The state announced more than $44 million in stimulus funds today for projects in the Akron-Canton area.

The local projects include replacing the Brady Lake Bridge in Portage County, building a transit facility in Medina County, resurfacing Interstate 77 in Stark County and rehabbing the state Route 303 bridge in Wayne County.

Akron received the most funding of any local community, getting $21 million for four projects, including fencing and other improvements to the All America (Y-Bridge) to try to prevent suicide attempts.

Other Akron projects are for improvements to South Main Street and Frank Boulevard and for the State Street bridge design.
