HB 2948 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the cessation of tolls by toll project entities in certain circumstances.

HB 2948 requires Texas toll project entities to maintain strictly separate accounts for each toll project's revenue, preventing the use of funds from one project to cover costs for another. The bill amends the Transportation Code to mandate that toll revenue for each project must be kept distinct, with no cross-subsidization allowed except under specific, authorized circumstances. This directly affects toll project operators and the Texas Department of Transportation, ensuring transparency in how toll funds are managed and allocated. The key change clarifies that project-specific toll revenue cannot be diverted to other projects without explicit authorization, promoting fiscal accountability for toll-funded infrastructure.
