With federal transportation funding holding flat yet facing a cliff in 2014, states are stepping out with their own plans to fund critical repair needs and make investments in new infrastructure. This year, nearly twenty states have already passed or are currently debating new transportation revenue plans.
Join this special online presentation to learn how states are leading the way in funding transportation.
This webinar will offer information for civic leaders, state officials and legislators looking to boost support for transportation funding in their states. Please pass the invitation on to your allies in state government.
