Key Points
Impact Analysis
Personal Impact
Small businesses located near large federally funded highway and transit construction projects would gain a new right to financial assistance for losses caused by those projects. They could be reimbursed for rent, utilities, payroll, and lost income during construction disruptions. This addresses a longstanding problem where shops and restaurants near major construction sites lose customers for months or years but have no way to recover those losses. However, only businesses near projects costing $50 million or more would be covered.
“shall be provided to covered entities that are negatively impacted by an interruption caused by a project carried out with amounts made available under such grant.”
