Abstract:

The purpose of this synthesis is to examine a wide variety of alternative funding mechanisms currently employed ; by individual states and to comprehensively assess policy and fi nance proposals with respect to their suffi ciency, ; pragmatism, and potential for expanded application. As such, this project will develop analytical tools equally ; adept at analyzing contemporary transportation funding structures and forecasting the impacts of alternative ; funding mechanisms on the condition of transportation systems and their capacity to improve the economic ; situation of state transportation funds. These tools will be critical for planning the future of the United States ; transportation system and will provide the foundation upon which policymakers can develop innovative strategies ; to keep all critical transportation assets operational. The principal goals of the synthesis study are to identify ; current funding sources for transportation systems, examine the eff ects of any pending or proposed changes in ; revenue structures, and to identify alternative funding mechanisms that would be most benefi cial and successful ; once implemented in states located in the southeast United States.
