The unexpected boost announced in Chancellor George Osborne's Autumn Statement also includes a further £8m for day-to-day spending.
Mr Wilson said: "Over the next three years our allocation from the increase in capital spending across the UK will be an extra £130m which of course is very welcome as we have taken the hit when we had a 40% reduction in our capital budget.
"The Executive will ensure the funding is allocated in a manner that will benefit the people of Northern Ireland.
"It is still in the early stages and I have not yet received details of the impact on our resource budget - however, I remain hopeful that this too will involve additions rather than reductions."
This unexpected gain while very welcome should not blind anyone to the fact that times will continue to be lean for years to come here.

Public sector pay rises will be capped at 1% after the current wage freeze ends - a move which risks deepening the dispute with unions which will see mass walkouts by members on Wednesday.
Mr Osborne said the proposal was "tough", but fair to the taxpayers funding the increase.
"Many are helped by pay progression - the annual increases in salary grades that many people are entitled to, even when pay is frozen," he added.
"It is one of the reasons why public sector pay has risen at twice the rate of private sector pay over the last four years."
Hitting out at the freeze plans, the Irish Regional Secretary for Unite claimed low-paid workers were paying for Mr Osborne's "failing economic argument".
"Once again, low-paid public servants - after already suffering a two-year pay freeze while inflation is running at 5% - are being penalised for Osborne and the Con-Dems' disastrous economic policies," Jimmy Kelly said.
"Families too are to be heavily penalised, especially women with children being hit hardest with the freeze on Family Credits. Unite will oppose these measures."
Mr Osborne told MPs that such a restriction on pay rises will save more than £1bn by 2014-15.
The current two-year pay freeze will come to an end next spring for some workers and during 2013 for most public sector employees.
As around two million public sector workers across the UK prepare to take strike action on Wednesday, in a protest over pension cuts, the Chancellor warned action would have to be taken to protect the basic state pension in the long-term.
"Our generation has been warned the cost of providing decent state pensions is going to become more and more unaffordable unless we take further action," Mr Osborne said, outlining plans for the state pension age to rise from 66 to 67 in 2026.
He added that the decision would not affect anyone due to begin claiming their state pension within 14 years - saving taxpayers a "staggering" £59bn.
You are once again giving with one hand and taking with another. How are these projects going to be paid for? By hitting families and savers.
Shadow Chancellor Ed Balls
According to the Chancellor, a double-dip recession for the UK could be avoided - but it depended on the survival of the Eurozone.
Mr Osborne said that the Government would do "whatever it takes" to protect the country from the debt storm in Europe, while at the same time "building the foundations for growth".
But his shadow counterpart Ed Balls said the Chancellor's economic and fiscal strategy lay "in tatters" and urged Mr Osborne to offer new proposals to revive the economy.
"How much worse does it have to get?" he asked.
"How many more young people have to lose their jobs? How many more businesses have to go bankrupt?
"How many billions more in borrowing do we need to pay for failure before this Chancellor finally sees sense?"
