Transportation Funding 101

Lunchtime Forum

We're improving the SPUR event registration process.
Later this month, we will launch a new ticketing system. We ask that you register for each event you're planning to attend through the link in the Admission section below. This will help us keep you informed of any changes and better tailor our schedules and offerings.

 

Have you ever wondered how the bus lights stay on? Or the new walkways get paved? From taxes and fares to private dollars, multi-million-dollar transportation projects are pieced together with funding from local, state and federal levels. This summer we’re hosting a two-part introductory series about how we pay for our transportation infrastructure. In part one, come learn about the basic financing structure behind the transportation modes that we rely on each day.
