Nearly $5 Billion Invested to Increase Transportation Options, Strengthen Resiliency and Improve Safety in California

Sacramento – The California Transportation Commission (CTC) today allocated $3.5 billion in funding to strengthen road resiliency, increase pedestrian and bicycle travel and improve highway safety. The funds included nearly $993 million from Senate Bill (SB) 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017 and $944 million from the federal Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021 (IIJA).

In addition, the CTC separately awarded $1.45 billion for new projects that will receive SB 1 funding over the next two years, through 2027. This includes funding for zero and low-emission transportation and new infrastructure that will strengthen the state’s freight network and better connect marine ports with railyards and freight corridors. The combined nearly $5 billion investment is part of Governor Gavin Newsom’s build more, faster agenda, delivering infrastructure upgrades and creating thousands of jobs across the state.

“We’re not just rebuilding transportation – we’re reimagining it. This investment – upwards of $5 billion – is about protecting Californians today and preparing for tomorrow with transit and transportation options that are safer, cleaner, and built to serve the needs of every Californian.” – Governor Gavin Newsom

"Under Governor Gavin Newsom's leadership, these transformative investments represent a bold step towards a future where our transportation system is safer, more efficient and a driving force for economic prosperity," said California Transportation Secretary Toks Omishakin. "By tackling congestion and enhancing connectivity, we are creating a brighter, more sustainable California for all."

“The Commission is pleased to partner with Caltrans to continue investing in California’s world-class transportation system,” said Commission Chair Darnell Grisby. “The investments we are making today will improve safety, ease congestion and reduce out-of-pocket costs for everyone in California.”
