Wednesday, U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg announced $1.8 billion in awards from the Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) discretionary grant program for 148 projects across the country.
"After decades of under-investment, the condition of America's infrastructure is now finally getting better instead of worse - and today we proudly announce our support for 148 more projects in communities of every size across the country," said U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. "Through President Biden's Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, we're funding projects across the country to make roads safer, make it easier for people to move around their community, make transportation infrastructure more resilient to extreme weather, and improve supply chains to keep costs down for consumers."
