SPECIAL REPORT:Transportation reform has a price SPECIAL REPORT: Transportation reform has a price
Thursday, Jan. 17, 2007 – Members of a federal commission say the U.S. needs “reform with a capital ‘R’ ” to solve transportation problems, not the current administration’s plan for more tolling and privatization.
Tolling and privatization will still play a role in transportation funding, but they would be limited in their scope, said Vice Chairman Jack Schenendorf of the National Surface Transportation Policy and Revenue Study Commission stated Thursday, Jan. 17, during a hearing before the U.S. House Committee on Transportation and Infrastructure. |
