In accordance with Session Law 2019-251, the N.C. Department of Transportation continues to release its weekly “NCDOT Cash Watch Numbers” report to provide the public with an overview of its financial status. The report supports transparency by offering regular insight into state transportation spending.
The latest report shows the combined cash balance from the previous week and is intended for comparison purposes. NCDOT notes that weekly figures may change and do not represent final monthly totals, which are finalized after end-of-month reconciliations.
The report outlines general categories for spending and revenue, as well as “reserved cash” set aside for specific purposes. These include funds for projects supported by Build NC bonds, GARVEE bonds, and Energy Savings-Roadway Lighting programs, which are held in a trustee account.
Because cash balances fluctuate daily with receipts and disbursements, the weekly report serves as a snapshot rather than a final accounting. Current and past reports are available on the NCDOT website for public review.
