I think you’re just experiencing an illusion. Most infrastructure projects in the US just need to be bigger as everything is further away and overall somehow larger. In Europe you can finish projects or at least see progress in infrastructure a lot quicker as cities are closer together. This way a railroad for example can connect two large cities after a few years of construction.
