SALINAS, CA - Today, U.S. Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren (CA-18) announced that the City of Watsonville will receive $320,000 from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to develop and update road safety plans.

"Mobility is key to our local, regional, and national economies, and thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, robust funding is flowing all around the country for road improvement projects," said Rep. Zoe Lofgren. "I'm glad to announce this federal investment to help the City of Watsonville develop and improve plans that will make roads safer for everyone."
