Building Big Things in Pennsylvania

Infrastructure

Governor Shapiro knows Pennsylvanians travel on our roads, bridges, and public transit systems every day to go to work, see friends and family, and explore the Commonwealth. That’s why in his first two years, Pennsylvania repaired more poor-condition bridges than any other state and paved more miles of roadway than any time in the past decade—and we’re not done!

The Shapiro Administration is rebuilding the Commonwealth’s infrastructure.

  • Governor Shapiro led a coordinated state, local, and federal response to reopen I-95 safely and just 12 days after it collapsed.
  • Secured his promise to free up an estimated $125 million annually for Pennsylvania’s roads, bridges, and infrastructure needs from the Motor License Fund in each of his first two budgets.
  • Secured an additional $80.5 million for Pennsylvania’s bridges and roads.
  • The Administration announced its plan to expand broadband access the Commonwealth using $1.16 billion in funding through the federal Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment Program.
  • As a result of Governor Shapiro’s work to secure significant new funding, the Commonwealth repaired more structurally deficient bridges in 2023 than any other state in the nation and improved more miles of roadway than at any time in the past 10 years.

The Governor secured investment in safe, clean public transportation systems and clean energy transportation options.

  • Prevented immediate Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) service cuts and fare increases in 2024 by transferring $153 million in federal funds.
  • Secured $80.5 million to repair and maintain Pennsylvania’s public transportation systems.
  • Pennsylvania received over $140 million in federal passenger rail investments to expand the passenger rail between Harrisburg and Pittsburgh and to study and develop the Scranton to New York City corridor, the Pittsburgh to Philadelphia corridor, and the Reading-Philadelphia-New York corridor.
  • Awarded $51.9 million to 81 projects in 40 counties to expand access to, and the reliability of, electric vehicle charging within Pennsylvania through the federal National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program. Pennsylvania was one of the first states to open its first EV charging station under the program.
