What costs should be included to determine whether or not a project meets the $25 million NHS limit requiring a VE study?
The law indicates that VE studies are to be performed during the design process, therefore, all costs associated with environmental studies, preliminary engineering, final design, ROW, and construction should be used to determine a project’s overall cost. Funding provided by State and/or local agencies should also be included (cannot just include Federal-aid highway funds).
