摘要: The fifth TRB conference on surface transportation financing, Innovation,Experimentation, and Exploration, took place in Irvine, California, in July 2014. It occurred against the sober backdrop of transportation funding gaps at the federal and state levels and the ensuing expiration of the 2-year Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) transportation authorization act. The discussions focused on migrating surface transportation funding from the motor fuel tax to mileage-based user fees and on strategies to increase state and local revenues. It was recognized that funding challenges will only be overcome through education and by making the case for transportation funding at the local level. From value capture strategies to local sales tax initiatives???along with indexing existing motor fuel taxes to inflation, expanding tolling applications, and working with private development partners???the conference explored the strategies that states and regions around the nation are beginning to implement to overcome funding gaps.
