Plain-English Summary

The proposal would direct federal funding and resources toward improving transportation infrastructure to help communities adapt to extreme heat and rising temperatures. It would likely support projects such as upgrading roads and transit systems to withstand hotter conditions, planting trees along transportation corridors for shade, and improving public transportation options to reduce vehicle emissions. This would affect cities and states planning infrastructure upgrades, transportation agencies, construction workers, and commuters who rely on public roads and transit systems.
