Minnesota will see $60 million flow into the state for bridge projects this year from the new federal infrastructure law.

The funding is part of $302 million overall projected for Minnesota's bridges over the next five years as part of the roughly $1 trillion infrastructure package.

Minnesota Transportation Commissioner Margaret Anderson Kelliher said the funding will have the biggest impact starting in the 2023 construction season, but the $60 million will help to plan for a number of projects starting this year.

Overall, the state expects to receive $4.5 billion for highways, bridges, transit, water infrastructure and other projects over five years from the federal aid package.
