State of the State: Here Come Public-Private Partnerships
During his “State of the State” speech yesterday, Governor Schwarzenegger didn’t spend too much time on transportation (and none on transportation reform). But what time he did spend shows how he’s planning on meeting our funding needs: public private partnerships.
Basically, we didn’t learn a lot about what kind of future transportation projects have during yesterday’s speech. What we did learn is that the governor thinks that car drivers are being taxed at more than their fare share, which is a sign that new revenues for transportation projects aren’t in the cards for 2008
