Innovative Finance: Strategic Research Project

This executive summary not only provides a list of possible out-of-the-box transportation revenue strategies, it also provides an overall framework in which to understand them. The authors intend to provide a holistic approach to examine how Texas approaches how it funds and finances transportation infrastructure. These processes are part of an overall system with inputs, outputs, and institutional processes that ultimately govern how revenue is collected and allocated. This framework provides a guide to understanding the implications of current and innovative funding and financing strategies and will help Texas identify the preferred path for funding and financing the transportation network in the 21st century.
