Orange County Pushes for Infrastructure Funding | Irvine News

Published 2 weeks, 3 days ago
Description

Orange County business leaders are sounding the alarm as federal transportation funding threatens to expire this September—urging Congress to act before it’s too late. This isn’t just about potholes; it’s about keeping the region’s economy running smoothly, with billions already invested in roads, transit, and rail under the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. Recent wins include nearly $54 million for California road repairs, including the 91 Freeway. Now, the BUILD AMERICA 2025 Act could unlock even bigger investments—with faster environmental reviews and rules for self-driving trucks. Businesses say reliable infrastructure is the foundation for growth, and without it, housing and workforce development could stall.
