Used to describe a traffic jam or traffic congestion due to road work, funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. This roadwork is often pointless and inefficient, but gets done anyway because the state has to fulfill a quota, otherwise it won't get equivalent funding during the next government handout cycle.
