Answer 1

The Works Progress Administration (WPA) was primarily responsible for **improving infrastructure and public facilities**. Established in 1935 as part of the New Deal during the Great Depression, the WPA employed millions of people to carry out public works projects, including the construction of roads, bridges, schools, and parks, among other facilities. While the WPA also contributed to various projects related to natural resource conservation and other areas, its main focus was on infrastructure development.
