Now, HTP work is expected to generate $19.6 billion in economic activity and create 95,000 jobs during construction. That’s an increase of 20,000 jobs from previous estimates. Additionally, three early work components currently underway represent roughly $1 billion in awarded contracts, according to the report. They will yield 7,500 jobs as well as generate $1.5 billion in economic output and $625 million in labor income.
