Interim study to complement the work of the Infrastructure Review Task Force, conduct a comprehensive examination of Nebraska's highway funding structure, and recommend possible alternatives

This legislative resolution directs the Transportation and Telecommunications Committee to conduct an interim study examining Nebraska's highway funding structure and recommending possible alternatives to traditional methods. The study will analyze current funding sources, the effectiveness of the fuel tax, how the Department of Transportation has managed lower revenues and higher costs, the impact on local governments, and alternative funding models used by other states such as vehicle miles traveled systems or tolling. The committee will report its findings and recommendations to the Legislative Council or Legislature upon completion of the study.
