Transportation is essential

Workers need to be able to get to and from work, and businesses need to be able to get goods to and from their markets.

 

We must either improve our transportation systems or else suffer the consequences of their decline. 

 

Governor Mark Dayton

 

 

The Transportation Finance Advisory Committee was established by Governor Mark Dayton to analyze potential revenue sources and non-traditional approaches to transportation funding and financing as well as opportunities for public-private partnerships to invest in transportation improvements.

 

The Advisory Committee is a 19 member panel composed of legislators, agency heads, business and the investment community, an economist, a union representative and representatives from city and county government.
