federal infrastructure bill

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer visited the Village of Dryden in Tompkins County Wednesday.

"We actually intended to be working currently, like this fall. But because of supply chain issues, fiber is one of the things that was hit particularly hard."

The public transit agency for Tompkins County, known as TCAT, wants to electrify its entire fleet of buses by 2035. There is funding from the federal infrastructure bill that will help the agency reach that goal.
