54% of all state DOT capital improvements depend on federal highway funding.
That is not a small number.
Derek Minnema sits down with Dave Bauer from ARTBA to break down the Build America 250 bill and what transportation reauthorization actually means for roads, bridges, and the communities that depend on them.
The 2021 infrastructure bill was historic. But was it a one-time moment or the beginning of something bigger?
That question is at the center of this conversation.
From work zones to freight corridors, from bridge funding to bipartisan momentum, this episode connects the policy to the pavement.
Watch the full episode to hear why this bill matters and what is at stake if Congress gets it right.
Guest: Dave Bauer, President and CEO at ARTBA
