Freight rail projects among recipients of TIGER IV grants
An estimated $104 million in TIGER IV grants has been awarded to U.S. freight rail and port projects by the Transportation Department. "The roads, rails, ports, and trails supported by TIGER funding are neither Democratic nor Republican; they're American," writes DOT Secretary Ray LaHood. "The jobs they create are American. And the economic growth they foster is American." The Journal of Commerce (6/22), RTandS.com (6/22), FastLane.DOT.gov (6/22)
