How This Impacts Americans

Potential effects on citizens and communities

If this bill becomes law, it would benefit residents and businesses in the Appalachian region of North Carolina by improving and expanding a key transportation corridor. This could lead to increased economic activity and job opportunities in the affected areas. However, the overall impact would be relatively limited, since the mileage increase is small compared to the full 3,090-mile system.
