Port of Stockton and CalTrans officials are looking at ways to apply nearly $600,000 in unspent funds originally earmarked for the port’s Daggett Road improvement project, after receiving a “use it or lose it” message from the Obama Administration.

U.S. Department of Transportation officials said earlier this month it would make immediately available $470 million in funds unspent from 2003-2006 fiscal appropriations under the previous administration.
