The funding is through the Rural Surface Transportation Grant Program, which Capito championed and included in the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.\n\n\u201cWhen we wrote and negotiated the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, I fought to ensure the transportation needs of West Virginia\u2019s rural communities were taken into account. Today\u2019s funding announcement is welcome news and will ultimately help both residents and visitors who are traveling in and around Bluefield and the surrounding area. This is the kind of core infrastructure project we intended the IIJA to support and I\u2019m looking forward to seeing it constructed and completed,\u201d Ranking Member Capito said.\n\nPROJECT DETAILS:\n\nThe project will construct an overpass bridge and make road improvements on the approach to an intermodal facility. The project will replace an existing one lane, signal-controlled railroad underpass (Old Bramwel Road/County Route 11/\u201dMidway Tunnel\u201d) with an overpass that includes separated pedestrian and bicycle accommodations.\n\n# # #", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-08T01:14:16Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://www.capito.senate.gov/news/press-releases/capito-announces-134-million-for-bluefield-overpass-construction-road-improvements"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 2.636041957885027, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
