Will help to reduce the burden on local taxpayers

“A well-funded, well-maintained transportation infrastructure is critical for economic growth and job creation in New York State and I am honored to join with highway superintendents from across my Senate District to share my support for increasing funding for CHIPS,” said Senator Mike Nozzolio. “Local governments are responsible for the maintenance of thousands of bridges and nearly 100,000 miles of local roads and highways in our State. If stretched end to end, the miles of local roads in New York State would circumnavigate the globe nearly four times. This much needed funding is vital in our efforts to repair our local roads and keep them well maintained and safe.”
