The recently passed infrastructure bill (Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act) will provide $11 billion over the next five years for New York transit agencies, the office of U.S. Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D–N.Y.) announced Tuesday.
The funding includes about $74 million for Centro in both Syracuse and Utica–Rome ($55.8 million in Syracuse and $18.2 million in Utica–Rome); more than $27 million for BC Transit in Binghamton; over $8 million for CitiBus in Watertown; nearly $18 million for TCAT in Ithaca; and more than $10 million for C-TRAN in Elmira.
