Atlanta’s $157 Million Highway Revamp at Risk From Trump Cuts

A $157 million plan to turn an Atlanta highway overpass into a park and provide 3,000 housing units is in jeopardy from President Donald Trump and the Republican-controlled Congress, Mayor Andre Dickens said.

The money for the project is part of the Neighborhood Access and Equity Grants Program under the Biden administration, which provided $3 billion to improve US communities affected by divisive infrastructure. But it’s now facing repeal as the Senate considers a Trump-backed budget bill that eliminates funding for the program.
