MOODY'S EXPECTS SLOW INFRASTRUCTURE SPENDING IN 2017-18

3/23/2017

 
Moody's has released a report,  "Large Increase in US Infrastructure Spending Will Be Slow to Develop," that concludes that the Trump administration $1 Trillion infrastructure proposals will be  slow to ramp up and result in limited increases in spending in the 2017 and 2018,"due to a number of political and practical constraints.  This view was also reflected by the Portland Cement Association's chief economist, Ed Sullivan, at the Association's recent Spring meetings.  For a summary of the Moody's report and a link to the download, go to ForConstructionPros.com, "Progress on Filling US Infrastructure Gap Likely to Be Slow Despite Calls to Action" (March 21, 2017)
