Transportation - Invest in Our Future: Revenue Sources to Fund Transportation Needs

Congress directed the National Surface Transportation Policy and Revenue Study Commission to conduct a comprehensive study of the needs of America’s surface transportation system and sources of revenue to fund them over at least the next 30 years. This report by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials was developed to assist the Commission in their analysis. It supplements two earlier reports, Future Needs of the U.S. Transportation System and Surface Transportation Policy Recommendations. This report addresses: Three questions which frame the background for the revenue options to be considered, and a needs assessment summary; The revenue crisis Congress will have to address in 2009; Short-term federal revenue options for the Highway Trust Fund; Short-term federal revenue options outside the Highway Trust Fund; State and local government revenue options; and Long-term federal revenue options.
