Wisconsin Towns Association director Mike Koles had a clear message as he sat before a panel of House lawmakers last week: America’s rural roads, bridges and culverts are deteriorating.
The Senate passed a bipartisan infrastructure bill that would provide $550 billion in new funding to repair America’s roads, bridges ports and waterways, while dramatically increasing high-speed internet access.
Funds are available to rebuild infrastructure damaged by Hurricane Florence through the USDA's Natural Resources Conservation Service in South Carolina.
Rural infrastructure projects would get 25 percent of the total amount of funding in President Trump’s infrastructure program, according to a leaked document.
