U.S. Transportation Secretary Buttigieg Awards $25M for Road Improvements in Sacramento County
United States Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg recently announced that a road improvement project in Sacramento County will receive nearly half its funding through a grant from the federal government.
According to Microsoft Start, through the Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) grant program, Sacramento County will receive $25 million for the Grant Line Road Safety Improvement Project, which seeks to provide critical safety improvements and more “multimodal transportation” options along Grant Line Road.
The total cost of the first phase of the Grant Line project is $55.5 million, and Sacramento County said the rest of the funding will come from the Sacramento Transportation Authority, another grant from the California Transportation Committee, and Measure A.
Sacramento County and the City of Rancho Cordova will also contribute money to the project as well, officials added.
