ATLANTA (AP) _ Governor Sonny Perdue has certified $145 million
worth of transportation projects in Georgia for federal stimulus
funds.

Among the projects Perdue signed off on was $25 million the
Atlanta Regional Commission is funneling to the MARTA transit
system. MARTA had said it might have to cut back service without
the additional funds.

Perdue said the projects he approved include road widenings,
improvements in intelligent transportation systems and upgrades to
traffic signals to ease congestion. Friday's projects were all in
metro-Atlanta area.

Perdue said the state will be submitting additional projects for
stimulus money from other areas of the state soon.
