This calls for a major transformation of American transportation infrastructure to prepare for 50% EV and most likely a surge in AV.

The infrastructure deal makes the largest federal investment in public transit ever. The largest federal investment in passenger rail since the creation of Amtrak. The single largest dedicated bridge investment since the Interstate Highway System was built.
It’s historic.
The future of the auto industry is electric — and made in America.
Today I'm signing an executive order with a goal to make 50% of new vehicles sold by 2030 zero-emission — and unveiling steps to reverse the previous administration’s short-sighted rollback of vehicle standards.
