David ShillerApril 26, 2023
States are increasing their spending on highways, streets, and bridge construction by 10% in fiscal year 2023. Four out of five states expect to increase this type of infrastructure spending in FY2023 over the previous year. Almost 75% of the increase is due to increased federal reimbursements to states. This includes early spending on IIJA (federal infrastructure law) projects.
The states highlighted in blue above have the highest percentage increase in funding, while the states highlighted in orange have increased capital spending by $500+ Million. More information on increased state infrastructure spending is available here.
