Calif. infrastructure plan 'hype': state treasurer - Boston.com (548 words)

The state has not added much infrastructure in recent decades despite its growth, leaving highways choked with traffic, schoolrooms filled to capacity, aging levees under threat from earthquakes and floods, and ports straining to handle a boom in trade with Asia.
