Part I: Transportation Infrastructure and Provisions Related to Public-Private Partnerships - Overview - The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), signed into law on November.
This is the first in a four-part series on the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, which we believe will catalyze significant private sector investment in transportation, energy, carbon capture, water and broadband initiatives.
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act allocates billions of dollars to priority areas, including funding for the development of carbon capture infrastructure, alternative energy sources and technologies, grid infrastructure, and electric vehicle infrastructure.
