California is slated to receive about $45.5 billion from the massive infrastructure bill passed in Congress last week, an investment that state officials say will help create jobs and improve infrastructure.

Under the spending plan, California expects to receive over five years:

  • $25.3 billion for federal-aid highway apportioned programs and $4.2 billion for bridge replacement and repairs
  • $9.45 billion to improve public transportation
  • $384 million to expand the electric vehicle charging network
  • At least $100 million to expand broadband coverage
  • $84 million to protect against wildfires
  • $40 million to protect against cyberattacks
  • $3.5 billion to improve water infrastructure
  • $1.5 billion for infrastructure development at airports
