SAN PEDRO, Calif.—The Port of Los Angeles received a $20 million federal grant Sept. 7 to help construct a four-lane bridge and alleviate a significant trucking bottleneck to and from an 80-acre marine support facility.
Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg joined Mayor Eric Garcetti and other local officials aboard the USS Iowa on Wednesday at the port to announce the funding, which is part of $2.2 billion allocated through the Biden administration’s Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity program.
