County Road Fund Manual

This County Road Fund Manual has been developed and is intended to serve two separate
but related purposes: primarily to serve as a reference guide for each county in its use of
County Road Construction Funds (W.S. § 24-2-110 et. al) (400.8 Definitions) and to serve as
a reference guide for the counties, the Wyoming Department of Transportation (WYDOT),
and the Federal Highway Administration for numerous state-funded and federally funded
transportation programs.
The County Road Construction and Maintenance Fund (CRCMF) provides for the
construction, improvement, and maintenance of county roads. The CRCMF is a
supplement to federal aid, primary and secondary road programs in each county. The
Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) is responsible for using these funds to design and
construct, reconstruct, resurface, and maintain a county road system. These
responsibilities are best accomplished with an understanding of related duties
