one joint replacement project. She also
discussed national and regional efforts
for system preservation - AASHTO
TSP-2 Initiative and the Southeast
Pavement Preservation Partnership and
Bridge Preservation Partnerships. She
encouraged states to participate.

Public-private partnerships (P3s) to
expand freight capacity are innovative
approaches gaining more attention and
seeing greater implementation. P3 freight
capacity projects should contribute to the
effectiveness of the entire transportation
system with contracts that protect public
interests in private facilities.
In Virginia, legislation in 2005 provided
the first dedicated source of rail funding.
It requires a 30 percent match from
private sources, and all projects are done
through public-private partnerships.
Moving freight with rail has cut 1.5 days
off travel time. Estimations are two to
three million more trucks will be off the
road by 2025.
CSX reports rail is the safest, most
environmentally-friendly ground
transportation available and is three times
more fuel efficient than over-the-road
alternatives. As partners in expanding
freight capacity, CSX notes there are
opportunities for mutual gains. In central
Florida, using rail to move freight would
reduce I-4 traffic and deliver economic
and environmental benefits. A willing
partner to share in cost where states
benefit, CSX has estimated one project
will produce $8 in public benefits for every
dollar of public funds invested.
Ports are players, too. In Jacksonville,
Florida, the port authority has partnered
with FDOT to make intersection
improvements nearby and is interested
in working with CSX on an intermodal
container transfer facility.
The Strategic Intermodal System (SIS)
in Florida acknowledges rail’s importance
to the transportation network. Florida,
along with Virginia, continues to lead
southeast states in pursuing public-private
partnerships and estimates P3s leverage
$367.8 million into $435 million in actual
projects.
In a public-private partnership, rail brings
much to the table. Economic stimulus
becomes real – jobs increase and tax
revenues go up. Based on projects done,
benefits exceed cost. More trucks are off
the road and the environment becomes
“greener” through greater fuel efficiency.

Kathy Dedrick provided an overview
of the process and anticipated schedule
for enactment of the new surface
transportation legislation in the U.S.
Senate. She said the process is still in the
early stages and that the approach is that
it’s regarded as a new authorization rather
than a re-authorization. Two challenges:
the budget shortfall in 2009 and a new
administration with a new staff.
Ruth VanMark outlined key issues that
will need to be resolved before new
legislation can be passed. She said this
