HONOLULU – Gov. David Ige announced the state released more than $278 million for Capital Improvement Projects (CIPs) in the month of March, to fund critical public infrastructure projects across the State of Hawai‘i.

“We’re doing at the local level what President Biden has proposed for the nation– strengthening infrastructure, improving public facilities, and delivering good-paying jobs for our state,” said Gov.
