Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick recently introduced a measure to spend $4.8 billion on improving the state’s transportation infrastructure, the Associated Press reported.

The plan proposed by Patrick, a Democrat, includes $500 million on road and bridge repairs, $100 million on rail projects, and $700 million for projects that would be part of the Big Dig in Boston.

Lawmakers plan to hold public hearings on the bill next year, according to the AP.
