Illinois will receive $1.4 billion to help upgrade its deteriorating bridges under the federal infrastructure law approved in November. The state’s Democratic congressional delegation said Friday that the funding over five years will include $274.8 million in Fiscal Year 2022. The delegation says in a news release that Illinois is home to “more than 2,374 bridges in poor condition.” The money will go to the Illinois Department of Transportation, which will determine how to invest it across the state for bridge upgrades. Illinois’ allotment is part of a $27 billion program to repair and upgrade roughly 15,000 highway bridges nationwide that President Joe Biden was announcing Friday.
