AGC released new economic data on Wednesday during a press conference at the Port Columbus International Airport in Ohio, which shows that personal earnings will increased by $1.1 billion and the national GDP will increased by $3.4 billion for every billion dollars invested in new infrastructure projects.
AGC CEO Stephen Sandherr presented the findings after touring a construction site at the Columbus airport, and indicated that many more people could be put to work on similar projects across the country, including water and wastewater projects, schools, airports, public buildings, waterway and port projects and surface transportation projects.
