By pushing automakers to bring their supply chains to the US, the administration believes it can make #EV ⚡🚗 more mainstream and accelerate toward an ambitious goal: to have 50% of all new car sales be for electric models by 2030, up from only 3% today. houstonpublicmedia.org/npr/2022/08/22…

🚅 The U.S. Department of Transportation announced grants to modernize passenger rail service in eight states. 🤠 Although Texas is not one of those states, TAG looks forward to increased funding for a modern high-quality passenger rail for our region to enjoy as well. chicago.suntimes.com/2022/8/20/2331…

We recently celebrated the career of a local #transportation champion! After 37 years, Quincy Allen has decided to end his chapter with TxDOT. He served our region as the TxDOT- HOU District District Engineer and ended by overseeing all 25 TxDOT districts in Texas. Thank you!🥳

🚂 👷 It's great to see new #infrastructure in Texas! The addition of a second bridge will 2X cross-border #rail container capacity in the Laredo-Nuevo Laredo region. The new bridge will allow a 24/7 interchange between Mexico and the U.S. by rail. freightwaves.com/news/kansas-ci…
