We talked to Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg about the work that’s been done, what might happen next, and how local leaders can keep making progress.
66,000 is a huge number of projects. Can you give some context about the scale of what’s happening compared to previous administrations?
There’s been nothing like it in my lifetime. It’s almost hard to conceptualize the scale of work that’s going on. One way I think about it is, as secretary, I visit some of these projects, of course. But if I visited a project every day for the rest of my life, I would not live long enough to see half of the projects. So that just gives you a sense of how widespread the work is.
