NOTES:
Numbers may not add to totals due to rounding.
Federal expenditures from own funds include all amounts of money paid out by the federal government including not only direct spending but also grants to state and local governments. State and local expenditures from own funds include outlays of the state and local governments from all sources of funds excluding federal grants. 
Local government outlays for highway are not included in 2006 due to lack of data.
