Currently, more than $3.2 billion in infrastructure work is planned for Delaware’s transportation network over the next six years as part of the Fiscal 2020 – fiscal 2025 Capital Transportation Program. When including fiscal year 2019 in the total, the investments total $4 billion.
“With these investments, we are modernizing our transportation system statewide,” said John Carney, governor of Delaware, to local reporters on Monday. “This is the kind of smart infrastructure investment that will create jobs, alleviate congestion, and lead to real economic growth statewide.”
Projects include more than $100 million in public transportation and rail, $80 million in road paving and rehabilitation projects, as well as $20 million in sidewalk improvements to meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) standards.
