The Journal of Commerce reports that stimulus funds for transportation infrastructure have so far paid to complete more than 3,000 construction projects around the United States and are now supporting three times that many under construction.

Those numbers come from the latest oversight report from the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, based on data as of Dec. 31.

The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act set aside $64.1 billion for expenditures under the committee’s jurisdiction. The report said nearly 17,000 projects totaling $56 billion have already been identified.
