U.S. transportation officials announced $2.2 billion for local infrastructure projects on Thursday, paving the way for new bridges, roads, bike lanes, railways and ports in scores of communities across the country.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg said the projects would help modernize America's transportation systems. In Tucson, the money will revamp a prominent street and replace a 1960s-era vehicle bridge that's in poor condition. It also will add a separate bicycle and pedestrian bridge as part of what Mayor Regina Romero called"a transformative investment in Tucson's infrastructure."While the Tucson project will expand the number of lanes for motorists, some projects elsewhere will reduce them.
