MEMORANDUM
TO:
MDTA Board
FROM:
Acting Capital Program Manager Jennifer Stump Third Quarter Review of FY 2026 Capital Budget vs. Actual Spending
SUBJECT:
DATE:
May 28, 2026
PURPOSE OF MEMORANDUM The purpose of the memorandum is to update the MDTA Board on the status of actual FY 2026 capital spending against the FY 2026 capital budget in the FY 2026-2031 Draft Consolidated Transportation Program (CTP). This information was presented to the MDTA Finance and Administration Committee on May 14, 2026. SUMMARY As of March 31, 2026, 44.5% of the FY 2026 budget was spent as compared to the targeted spending level of 75%. The total budget for FY 2026 is $1.1 billion. The actual spending through the third quarter was $512.9 million. ANALYSIS Twenty-eight of the 102 projects budgeted in FY 2026 were within the acceptable spending limits of 50% to 100% (plus or minus 25% of the 75% target). Due to normal lags in invoicing, generally two months, a plus or minus 25% threshold was determined to be reasonable. The Key Bridge Rebuild was at a 36.2% spend rate while the remaining projects in the CTP were at a cumulative spend rate of 56.5%. Actual spending through the third quarter for ten projects with FY 2026 budgets over $10 million was $412 million. The ten projects are detailed in Attachment A.
