The health of our finances is at the lowest
point since the 1930s due to challenges
from construction cost increases,
decreasing revenues and growth demands.
Three panelists discussed the challenges
on the federal, state and local levels.
Federal Perspective
In the next reauthorization bill, Congress
will encourage the private sector to be
more involved in transportation funding
but will want to protect the public interest
as well, said Jim Tymon, staff director
for the U.S. House of Representatives
Transportation and Infrastructure
Committee. They will be looking more at
taxing vehicle miles traveled rather than
a gas tax. The gas tax will become more
obsolete in the next 20 years and more
research will need to be done in protecting
privacy rights when determining the
vehicle miles traveled proposal.
State Perspective
There is a ‘perfect storm’ looming with
state transportation funding caused by the
increasing demand on the transportation
system, declining revenues from traditional
sources and increasing costs for materials
and labor, said Marsha Johnson, director
of Florida DOT’s Financial Development
Office. New financing strategies are
divided into short term such as tolling
new expressways or leasing existing toll
facilities. Long-term options are open
road tolling, a system of toll express and
HOT lanes on the existing interstate and
changing the revenue collection system to
vehicle miles traveled.
Local Perspective
Tremendous growth demands and
constrained revenues require a need to
look at growth management strategies for
the longer term. Orange County, Florida
is moving toward more creative funding
mechanisms. Among them are Community
Redevelopment Areas and Community
Development Districts, reliance on toll
roads and public private partnerships.

How do we use our limited resources to
protect the investment in our existing
infrastructure? Our panelists discussed
“Infrastructure Preservation – protecting
the investment.”
Infrastructure Preservation: King W.
Gee, FHWA’s Associate Administrator for
Infrastructure, talked about preserving
the deteriorating condition of the nation’s
roads and bridges. Since 1980, vehicle
miles traveled (VMT) is up 98 percent,
licensed drivers up 40 percent yet lane
miles have only increased by seven
percent.
Preservation of Florida’s Infrastructure:
Preservation has been a top priority in
Florida Statutes since 1999 and within
FDOT well before that, said Tim Lattner,
FDOT’s State Maintenance Engineer. The
investment in a preservation program
that includes accountability through
performance measures is a sound
investment with solid returns.
System Preservation in Louisiana:
Janice P. Williams, P.E., Louisiana DOTD,
Chief, Systems Engineering, said a
System Preservation Section was created
