Biden Administration Announces New Investments Repairing Bridges Across America
To serve 230,000 vehicles a day, nearly $300 million in funding was announced for nine bridge replacement projects throughout rural and urban areas across the nation as part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law’s Bridge Investment Program. These investments are to save taxpayers time and money by reducing congestion and making long-overdue improvements.
According to The White House, over the course of the three-week Investing in America tour, President Biden, Vice President Harris, and twenty senior Administration Officials traveled to over 50 cities and towns in 25 states and territories across the country that are benefiting directly from the President’s Investing in America agenda – including the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the Inflation Reduction Act, the CHIPS and Science Act, and the American Rescue Plan. During the tour, Administration officials have touted how the Investing in America agenda has unleashed over $435 billion in private sector manufacturing investments, funded 23,000 infrastructure projects across 4,500 cities and towns, spurred record small business starts, and has helped create over 12 million jobs since President Biden and Vice President Harris took office.
