Nearly $2 million dollars in state funds have been allocated for projects in Bristol Borough and Bristol Township. Bucks County Technical High School will benefit from a $1 million investment for campus renovations. The funding, which was obtained in partnership with the Bucks County Redevelopment Authority, will be used for extensive structural improvements, including repaving, roof upgrades and classroom enhancements. In addition to school funding, a grant for $435,000 has been approved for the development of affordable housing in Bristol Township. The project is in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity and will focus on rehabilitating blighted properties to bolster local housing availability. “Affordable housing is a critical need in our area, and the partnership between the RDA and Habitat for Humanity will help meet this need,” state Sen. Steve Santarsiero (D-10) said. Additionally, Bristol Borough will receive $485,000 to resurface the track at Bristol Borough Junior/Senior High School.
