| 摘要： | Since the Infrastructure Invest-merit and Jobs Act became law in November 2021, much of the attention in Washington, D.C., has been on its implementation and how it will transform Americas infrastructure in the coming decades. Two signature projects funded by the IIJA are already in motion. The first is the nearly $1.4 billion allotted to improve the Brent Spence Bridge that connects Cincinnati and Covington, Kentucky. Funding allows for widening the existing bridge as well as the construction of a companion bridge to help ease traffic congestion. Construction is expected to be complete by 2029. The second major endeavor to receive IIJA funding is the Hudson Tunnel Project, which is still in the early stages of conceptual design. Plans to increase capacity include the rehabilitation of the existing tunnel, which carries commuter trains between New York and New Jersey, and a new two-track tunnel and associated infrastructure. |
