About the Local Infrastructure Hub
The Local Infrastructure Hub was a nationwide program that helped city leaders connect with resources and expert advice to access and implement historic federal infrastructure funding available through the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law and the Inflation Reduction Act. From July 2022 to March 2026, the Hub supported 6,950+ local officials across 2,500+ cities nationwide, providing workshops, one-on-one expert support and practical tools to strengthen grant applications and implementation.
The Hub provided technical assistance to cities until March 2026.
National Impact on a Local Level
Over its lifetime, the Local Infrastructure Hub drove meaningful results for cities nationwide:
- 460+ Hub-supported cities won an announced $5.05 billion in federal funding across 20 grant programs
- Winning Hub cities received notifications of awards averaging $10.9M in funding per city (min: $19k, max: $268M).
- Hub cities were 1.4× more likely to win federal funding than cities that did not use Hub resources.
Beyond funding wins, participating cities reported lasting improvements in local capacity, including:
- Greater preparedness to submit competitive applications.
- Increased confidence in core grant application principles.
- Increased ability to implement awarded funds effectively.
