"Thanks to the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, the Tampa Bay area already has secured $17 million for Port Tampa Bay and for roadway improvements. I want my local partners to be ready to win competitive grants to help lower costs, ease congestion and create jobs. This new Guidebook will ensure that Tampa area partners have the information necessary to deliver on Tampa's priorities as we Build Back Better," said Rep. Castor.

The Administration's new Guidebook provides key information on all available funding in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, totaling more than 350 distinct programs supporting a wide range of infrastructure projects. This Guide outlines eligibility criteria, application deadlines and contact information, as well as additional resources to help navigate these programs.
