Mayor Stimpson issues statement on $550 million awarded in bridge funding
Mobile, Ala. — “Hallelujah! It is hard to overstate how important today’s announcement is for the future of Mobile. This funding is a monumental boost for the Mobile River Bridge and Bayway project, and we are moving full steam ahead. I want to thank the USDOT and the Federal Highway Administration for their efforts advancing this project, which benefits everything from daily commuters to hurricane evacuations to the growth of our port and industrial base. I also want to thank Governor Kay Ivey and ALDOT Director Cooper for keeping this project alive over the last few years. Without their unwavering support, we wouldn’t be here today. The benefits of today’s announcement will be felt along the entire I-10 corridor from Florida to California!” – Mayor Sandy Stimpson
