Employment Impact of Highway Construction and Maintenance Activities in Kansas
The direct employment resulting from highway construction and maintenance activities in the state of Kansas is examined as well as the indirect and induced employment (by state industrial sector) resulting from those activities. Six types of highway improvements were selected for analysis: Resurfacing; Restoration, Rehabilitation, Reconstruction and Minor Widening; New Bridges and Bridge Replacement; Major and Minor Bridge Rehabilitation; New Construction, Relocation, and Major Widening; and Safety/Traffic Operations/Traffic Systems Management, Environmentally Related, Physical Maintenance, and Traffic Services Projects. The objectives of the study are accomplished through the use of a 68-sector, survey-based, input-output model (Emerson, 1989) that was developed for the state of Kansas by the Economics Department at Kansas State University. The model is adapted to include six additional sectors corresponding to the six highway improvement types listed above. The input-output data for these six sectors is obtained from highway contractors who were awarded KDOT contracts during the period July 1, 1991 to May 19, 1994.
