The Biden administration has allocated $4.2 billion for 44 major infrastructure projects, including replacing a century-old rail bridge in Boston and other significant improvements across the country. The funding comes from two grant programs aimed at supporting large and complex projects that enhance economic benefits and freight delivery. Various states, such as Iowa, Illinois, and California, have received funding for projects like highway interchange rebuilding, freight rail bridge upgrades, and high-speed rail station construction. Despite the competitive nature of the program, federal officials are working with unsuccessful applicants to strengthen future proposals and ensure equitable distribution of funds.
