California has secured $60.6 million in funding from the U.S. Department of Transportation to bolster climate-resilient transportation infrastructure across the state, addressing challenges such as wildfires, flooding, and extreme heat.
According to U.S. Senator Alex Padilla, funds will support projects that improve transportation infrastructure’s resilience against extreme weather and natural disasters. The initiatives will help expedite emergency response, secure reliable evacuation routes, and create good-paying construction jobs across California.
The grant is from the Department of Transportation’s Promoting Resilient Operations for Transformative, Efficient and Cost-Saving Transportation program.
