Issues Center > Index of Issues > TransportationTransportation IssuesAmerica's transportation and infrastructure system, once a marvel of the modern world, has been stretched beyond its capacity and has fallen into disrepair. A decaying transportation system costs our economy more than $78 billion annually in lost time and fuel. The Chamber advocates for a comprehensive approach to solving the nation's looming transportation infrastructure crisis. Specifically, the Chamber believes that a multi-modal and intermodal vision must increase capacity, reduce congestion, and improve the efficient, safe, sustainable movement of goods and people throughout the country and world.
The Chamber is in a unique position to demonstrate the fundamental link between the maintenance and improvement of our nation's transportation infrastructure and the health of our economy. More importantly, the Chamber is taking that message to key policymakers on Capitol Hill and the public. We will continue mobilize our grassroots network to ensure the business community is an active participant in the coming debates on the transportation infrastructure crisis and leads the way to comprehensive solutions.
