Just saw it on the Daily Show and all I have to say is WTF? The government couldn't think of anything better to spend that money?

I heard $60k a few years back. I assume both of those numbers include the cost of any related traffic studies and widening the road to add turning lanes if necessary.

The OP didn't really give any details, so I have no idea wtf he's talking about.
