Topic: Transportation: From Here to There; How and Who Pays

Summary: The Portland and Oregon ground transportation system is funded and managed by an overlapping, complex series of intergovernmental arrangements including the federal government, state government, local governments and the Metro regional government. What do these intergovernmental arrangements look like? Who’s the leader? When and Why? Do these arrangements impede or facilitate transportation problem solving? What are some ideas for the future? Listen, learn and question these experts, representing our state transportation management and legislative infrastructure, our Metro government and a view of the future.
