It seeks to address the growing backlog of infrastructure needs and ensure the safety and reliability of local transportation networks.

Key Provisions:
- Allocates $500 million in state funding over the next 5 years for municipal road and bridge projects
- Establishes a competitive grant program to distribute the funds to municipalities based on their infrastructure needs and project plans
