Chairman @ Autonomy Institute | Industry 4.0 Fellow: Building Intelligent Infrastructure Economic Zones ARPA-I
U.S. Department of Transportation, USDOT Research and Technology, and the Federal Highway Administration have known for over 20 years that safer and more optimized mobility is highly dependent on INTELLIGENT INFRASTRUCTURE. Deploying Intelligent Infrastructure, the Roads of the 21st Century will Save lives with every deployment and reverse the 20+ year trends of death. Since 1999: 900,000 Deaths, over 50 Million injuries, and $10+ trillion in economic loss. Intelligent Infrastructure ARPA-I: https://lnkd.in/gw-aWY2s The Federal Infrastructure Bank and infrastructure investors are mobilizing $billions in private capital to build the Roads of the 21st Century. Establishing a North Star is key: JFK did not just say “Give us your ideas”, or let’s do space stuff; he stated we will put a man on the moon. Eisenhower did not focus on how we would build the Interstate Highways; did not worry about the new material sciences, the new machinery, the new technologies, . . . He just led by saying WE HAVE TO BUILD THEM. POC and pilots do not drive innovation and progress. INTELLIGENT INFRASTRUCTURE (the foundation of ARPA-I) goes well “Beyond Transportation” and will be the brains of our economy. Providing advanced city services, resilient and carbon-free economies, closing the technology divide, enabling autonomous systems, and most important; securing data for people, cities, and governments. Creating millions of new jobs and economic growth nationwide. https://lnkd.in/gMfGAVeT Since its founding in 1950, the National Science Foundation (NSF) has focused on investments in basic science: TRL 1-4. Beginning in the late 1970s and early 1980s, in response to the growing pressures of globalization, the NSF began expanding the range of its research with the SBIR and STTR programs, focused on TRL 5-7. The Autonomy Institute and Private investors are focused on TRL 7-9-MRL. Time to Build the Infrastructure for the Next 100 Years.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law isn’t just rebuilding America’s aging infrastructure, it’s helping us innovate and modernize all of our transportation systems—making them more affordable, efficient and safe. The technologies we’re developing today will enable a better tomorrow.

What do you need to know about the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law? → $1.2 trillion has been allocated for infrastructure projects around the nation (including everything from roads and bridges to airports and even some rural development projects) → The bill was officially adopted in November 2021, and the total plan implementation is expected to span five years → In addition to safer communities, the surge in projects will create significant job opportunities for skilled engineers and construction workers Want to learn more?

Thanks for sharing. Yes, this law is a large investment in the Nation’s infrastructure, but it is only 10% of the real investment need. That means that there is a great number (90%) of infrastructure projects that are not going to get done. Is that what we all want? HR 4052, the creation of the Nation’s fifth National Infrastructure Bank, is what is required. The fourth NIB actually built the bulk of America’s infrastructure, including the mobilization for WW II. America needs this new NIB to complement this law and fund ALL infrastructure projects. Let’s do this right and not squander this opportunity. #nationalinfrastructurebank
President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law is the single largest investment in America’s infrastructure since the construction of the Interstate Highway System in 1956. We’re rebuilding America and creating good-paying construction jobs along the way.

Since implementation of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law began in 2022, we have met important goals and milestones and made incredible progress in a short amount of time for the nation as we make a generational upgrade to America’s transportation infrastructure systems. #transportation #infrastructure #jobs

This information is an example of how funding is available to help improve infrastructure across our communities. Build TEAMS of professionals that can help our communities address those concerns that are PSH (Public Safety Hazards). SS4A… Is a Bipartisan bill that is designed to to help improve all Infrastructure…
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law established the Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) discretionary grant program to support local initiatives that help prevent roadway deaths and serious injuries. With the latest award announcement in December, SS4A has provided $1.7 billion in federal funding to more than 1,000 communities, including Dearborn. More than $3 billion is still available for future funding rounds. Learn more: mayo.rs/SS4Agrants

Agree wholeheartedly…This is a must to move forward through the future. Main issue is where is the funds going to come from. Do we find all transit projects by increasing the debt as we are doing now. We must think about that concern. This is why HR 4052, the creation of the Nation’s fifth National Infrastructure Bank. In the same way the previous four banks funded all infrastructure projects w/o increasing debt this new NIB will do the same. The same model is being used throughout the world to do their infrastructure projects including transit. All four previous NIBs were highly successful. Let’s do it again - check out nibcoalition.com. #nationalinfrastructurebank
Legislative Alert 🚨🚨 : APTA strongly encourages you to urge your Representatives and Senators to honor the promise of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and fully fund public transit 🚌 🚋 🚇 and passenger rail 🚄 🚆 in the FY 2024 THUD Appropriations Act > https://lnkd.in/d_EChXuP

60 years ago today, President Lyndon Johnson signed into law legislation creating the federal transit program, marking the federal government’s major role in supporting transit bus and rail systems across the U.S. In the 60 years since, the program, now managed by FTA, has reshaped transit in America. We have evolved from supporting a few scattered bus lines and city subways to funding world-class rail, bus, ferry and bus rapid transit systems to ensure everyone can fully participate in all their communities have to offer. Thanks to President Biden’s Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, we now have more support to help transit agencies expand and modernize their systems. transit.dot.gov/FTA60
