After reading Rob's comments about the Apponaug Circulator project costs, I found this at RIDOT:

http://www.dot.ri.gov/news/apponaug/index.php

Project Cost: $71 million, which includes a $29.8 million construction contract.

I found in one of the articles Rob linked above that $11 million was for land acquisition costs, 30 million for construction. Thats a total of $41 million. Not sure what the remaining $30 million is for as yet. And of course the question why the press was apparently always told 30 million when there was the land acquisition cost always there and another 30 million of who knows what. That is a lot of money. But the project was long overdue and a positive change (other than the huge increase in accidents).
