Economic Impact of Construction in California

Analysis of the latest U.S. Census Bureau data shows the design, construction and maintenance of transportation infrastructure supports the equivalent of 354,590 full-time jobs in California. These employees earn a total annual payroll of $18.6 billion and contribute an estimated $1.6 billion in state and federal payroll tax revenue.
The above data tells us that a strong construction industry is one vital key to economic recovery.
