Economist: Delays ahead
From Economist:
The biggest shift in transport policy since the 1950s is due, supposedly, this summer. February’s stimulus package provided about $48 billion for transport, a pittance in comparison. As The Economist went to press on June 18th James Oberstar, the chairman of the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, was about to present a blueprint for a new transport bill. The old act expires on September 30th; the new one would span six years and authorise $500 billion in spending. More important, the money would be spent differently. The way Americans move and live might change too.
