Ohio’s $1.6 Billion Highway Budget Shortfall: Where do We Go from Here?

This critical economic engine risks running out of gas. Funding for our highways is drying up and is not projected to keep up with our needs.


No matter what happens, there will be contractual guidelines on tolls and maintenance that will keep the road as strong as we know it today — or better. I welcome the upcoming debate and want to engage in the conversation with policy-makers at the federal, state and local levels that is long overdue.

Gone is pretending we don't have a problem. We must take this opportunity to bring leaders to the table and work together to solve this problem.

Without a good transportation system we lose jobs and Ohio fades. By applying the same creative spirit for which Ohio is known, we can solve this problem and keep Ohio moving in the right direction.
