Road and highway construction activity increased through the end of 2023, mainly due to strong investments in transportation infrastructure. Local and state governments have maintained healthy highway construction budgets, while federal programs, such as the Highway Trust Fund and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act have bolstered industry performance. Road and highway construction revenue has expanded at a CAGR of 2.9% to $163.9 billion over the past five years, pushed up by a 1.6% increase in 2023 alone. Profit also increased as revenue growth outpaced labor costs.High road: A decrease in federal funding for transportation will temper revenue growth
