A transportation department spokesperson said the total cost of the project and fixing it cost was more than $68,000. According to the city, the initial project for the bike advisory lane cost $18,880.29 to slurry the street and $7,469 to stripe the street.Team 10 also received invoices that appeared to bring the total higher, but a city spokesperson said the invoices may be redundant.
