Federal investment in our transportation

The Los Angeles region has secured nearly $900 million in funding to strengthen critical infrastructure, expand the Metro Rail system, and reconnect communities ahead of the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games through a spending package signed into law by President Biden over the weekend and new grant funding from the Biden-Harris Administration.

The Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority (Metro) will receive $709.9 million from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Fiscal Year 2024 transportation spending law, which will go towards the East San Fernando Valley Light Rail Transit Project and sections two and three of the D Line (Purple) Subway Extension Project.

The Los Angeles region will also receive $160 million in new federal grant funding for street and transit infrastructure, traffic safety, and to improve connections between neighborhoods. This includes $139 million that will directly improve transportation mobility access during the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games and create lasting enhancements for communities.
