The Intersection of Urban Form and Mileage Fees: Findings from the Oregon Road User Fee Pilot Program
Friday, March 11th, 2011MINETA TRANSPORTATION INSTITUTE
In 2006 and 2007 the state of Oregon conducted a groundbreaking mileage fee pilot program. The program responded to a national concern that fuel taxes will stop serving as a reliable revenue source as a large proportion of the vehicle fleet transitions to running on little or no petroleum-based fuel. To prepare Oregon for this future threat to its transportation revenues, the state legislature authorized a pilot program to test mileage fees as a replacement for the state fuel tax.

Transit Corridors and TOD: Connecting the Dots
