Redefining rural areas for road grants eligibility.
This bill changes the definition of a rural area by reducing the population limit from 200,000 to 20,000 residents. This means smaller communities will have a greater chance of receiving federal grants for road repair and construction, potentially improving transportation infrastructure in these regions.
Key points
Smaller communities will gain increased access to road funding.
Improved road conditions in rural areas may facilitate commuting and goods transport.
