Transportation & Infrastructure

Transportation and Infrastructure

Kendrick supported the Recovery Act to bring high-speed rail between Orlando and Tampa to Florida, creating over 25,000 jobs for the state.

In a state as large as Florida, it is crucial that our transportation infrastructure is always in good repair and that we have a number of ways to get where we're going. With this in mind, Kendrick has put a high priority on developing high-speed rail between Orlando and Tampa, as well as maintaining our roads and bridges and investing in our seaports, airports and local commuter projects. Keeping our infrastructure in good condition also helps create and maintain well-paid jobs in Florida that can't be outsourced.

As Florida's Senator, Kendrick will continue to ensure the integrity of our infrastructure. He will fight for the necessary federal investments in our roads and bridges so that their safety is never questioned. Kendrick also supports greater investments in light rail and other local commuter projects. Commuters waste countless hours and gallons of fuel waiting in traffic. Building more roads will not solve the problem, but investing in commuter projects will pay off in time and energy saved. State-of-the-art ports and airports will make the movement of people, goods and services more efficient for those who work and play in Florida.
