Last week, the Biden administration announced that more than $368 million in grants from the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) will sponsor attempts to modernize rail infrastructure, improve supply chains, reduce congestion, and create jobs throughout rural and urban America.
In all, 47 projects in 32 states and the District of Columbia will benefit from these funds, thanks to the Biden administration-sponsored Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. That law nearly tripled funding for the rail infrastructure program to $1 billion a year over the next five years.
