12. Limited Resources Must Manage & Prioritize  1 st priority – NH National Highway System (includes all high volume and primary routes); needed for healthy economy and mobility  2 nd priority – Remaining US Routes and State Numbered Routes; maintained at a less than desirable level  3 rd priority - State Unnumbered Routes; not being properly maintained due to lack of funding

13. Capital Needs Many More needs than resources –Ten Year Plan Feedback Prioritization and Balance Alternative modes of transportation Municipal Needs

14. Capital Needs Regional Priorities to fund: –New Hampton/Meredith – NH 104 –Bristol – NH 104 –Meredith – NH 25 –I-93 Exit 19 –Alton-Gilford NH 11
