Sen. Adam Schiff, D-California, announced Friday that San Diego will receive a share of more than $91 million in federal transportation funding to support infrastructure and transit operations ahead of the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games.<\/p>\n
The funding, included in the fiscal year 2026 Transportation, Housing and Urban Development appropriations bill, will distribute more than $1 million among San Diego and other supporting cities, including San Jose and Mission Viejo, according to Schiff’s office.<\/p>\n
Nearly $90 million of the total will go to Los Angeles, which will host the majority of Olympic events.<\/p>\n
Schiff said the funding is intended to support safety upgrades, infrastructure improvements and transit operations in cities expected to host or support Olympic activities.<\/p>\n
“Our work securing these important federal dollars will help deliver safe and efficient transportation for the millions of fans in town for the Games,” Schiff said in a statement.<\/p>\n
He said he will continue working with colleagues and the Federal Transit Administration to support transportation planning ahead of the international event.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Sen.
