Atlanta, GA ~ In a recent announcement, Governor Brian P. Kemp revealed new details about the historic $1.5 billion investment in transportation infrastructure included in the Amended Fiscal Year 2024 budget. This funding will not only advance ongoing transportation projects but also serve as a down payment for future expansion as Georgia continues to experience record job and population growth.
Governor Kemp expressed his gratitude towards the Lt. Governor, Speaker of the House, and members of the General Assembly for their support of this generational investment. He stated that this funding will ensure that Georgia's already reliable infrastructure network can meet the needs of the state's incredible growth in recent years.
The $1.5 billion investment was first announced during the 2024 Legislative Session and will have a significant impact on various aspects of transportation infrastructure in Georgia. It includes more than doubling the state's funding to cities and counties for local transportation investments, increasing funding for general aviation airports, resurfacing more state highways, accelerating ongoing projects, and kickstarting new strategic projects to prepare for Georgia's future.
