Senator Frank Farry, along with Representatives Kristin Marcell, K.C. Tomlinson, and Joe Hogan, announced new state funding for projects aimed at improving pedestrian safety and water infrastructure in Bucks County.
The investments are being provided through the Commonwealth Financing Authority’s (CFA) Multimodal Transportation Fund and the PA Small Water and Sewer Program. The Multimodal Transportation Fund is designed to support transportation infrastructure improvements that can also encourage economic growth throughout Pennsylvania.
Senator Farry stated, “I am committed to supporting the safety of our communities and am pleased we were able to secure the funding for these important projects that will create safer neighborhoods and improve the quality of life for our residents.”
Representative Marcell added, “These projects address specific needs in our communities by improving infrastructure and upgrading essential systems. I was glad to work with Sen. Farry to support these initiatives and help secure funding that will enhance safety and add to our quality of life across Bucks County.”
Representative Tomlinson commented on a specific bridge repair project: “I was happy to work with Sen. Farry on this. This project was a must, given that this bridge gives access to and from a development. These repairs will ensure that roughly 300 residents will be able to go to and from their homes.”
Representative Hogan highlighted the financial benefits: “By working together, Sen. Farry and I were able to secure these funds. These projects are going to save the local taxpayer and ratepayer money while improving our critical sewer and stormwater infrastructure for safer and healthier communities.”
The announcement underscores ongoing efforts by local lawmakers to invest in public safety measures as well as maintain essential water systems in Bucks County.
