Importance of improving our infrastructure

Trucking is the backbone of our nation’s economy. Strengthening our infrastructure to meet freight demands is key to keeping the United States economy strong.

The American Trucking Associations (ATA) supports the swift passage of an infrastructure proposal that improves and strengthens our nation’s roads, highways and bridges; improves congestion to ensure the smooth flow of goods on the road; and prioritizes safety.

The ATA will continue to work with the administration and members of Congress to advance a long-term infrastructure spending proposal that strengthens our economy, creates jobs and ensures the safe and timely delivery of goods across America.
