“The Biden Administration’s decision to rescind the FTA’s policy on the Capital Investment Grants program clears a major bureaucratic hurdle for state transit infrastructure projects, including the Gateway Program. This is the type of intergovernmental cooperation we need to move our infrastructure and economy forward,” said Carlo A. Scissura, President and CEO of the New York Building Congress. “The Gateway Program is the most critical infrastructure project in the country, increasing transportation capacity, reducing congestion, creating thousands of new jobs and stimulating the economy. Gateway puts us on track to build a stronger, more sustainable region and nation.”
