The U.S. Department of Transportation recently awarded more than $2.2 billion in Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) grants to 162 infrastructure projects nationwide.
The RAISE program helps fund critical freight and passenger transportation infrastructure projects.
“Using the funds in President Biden’s infrastructure law, we are helping communities in every state across the country realize their visions for new infrastructure projects,” U.S. Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said. “This round of RAISE grants is helping create a new generation of good-paying jobs in rural and urban communities alike, with projects whose benefits will include improving safety, fighting climate change, advancing equity, strengthening our supply chain, and more.”
