Make critical investment in transportation, infrastructure, roads and bridges – creating good jobs and ensuring safety
Make critical investments in transportation, infrastructure, roads, and bridges to create good jobs and improve safety.

Evidence
Rep. Stephen F. Lynch announced the City of Quincy will receive over $10 million in federal funding to complete roadway construction and make traffic and pedestrian/bicycle improvements at Southern Artery and Sea Street. He said the grant would help repair and redesign local roadways and intersections to improve public safety and transportation safety.
Lynch submitted FY26 Community Project Funding requests including the Merrymount Parkway Bridge Replacement in Quincy, asking for $4,000,000 to replace a deteriorating bridge and fund roadway improvements, upgraded traffic signals, sidewalks, and pedestrian amenities. The page says the Appropriations Committee will decide which projects are selected for funding.
Assessments
Lynch secured or announced concrete federal transportation funding during his current House service, including over $10.4 million for roadway, traffic, pedestrian, and bicycle safety improvements in Quincy, which materially advances the promise to invest in transportation infrastructure and safety. However, the record provided shows delivery on a specific local project plus a pending FY26 bridge funding request, not full fulfillment of the broader promise covering transportation, infrastructure, roads, bridges, jobs, and safety at scale. That supports partial credit rather than full delivery.
