Letter to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) on IIJA Implementation

NSSGA applauds Congress and the Biden Administration for diligently working to draft and advance IIJA, which provides almost $1 trillion to rebuild our infrastructure. We are proud to have been a partner in the work to complete this historic bill, as it will directly improve the lives of all Americans. The aggregates industry now stands ready to deliver the billions of tons of construction materials needed to build the roads, bridges, tunnels, rail, transit, ports, energy, water, broadband and every public works funded through IIJA. At every stage of implementation of the historic infrastructure legislation, we encourage FHWA and every federal agency to execute and deliver IIJA’s investment efficiently to project planners. Utilizing existing formula and funding structures is key to this work and is the best way to ensure the promises of IIJA are delivered to every community.
