Transportation Bills Introduced in Both Houses of Legislature on First Day of 2017-18 Session


Sen. Jim Beall (D-San Jose) and Assembly Member Jim Frazier (D-Oakley) each announced their own transportation reform and funding proposals early this morning as the first order of business under SB 1 and AB 1, respectively. These proposals represent a continued effort by the Assembly and Senate to address the $73 billion unmet funding need for local streets and roads and $59 billion backlog to the state’s transportation infrastructure.
 
The bills are not yet formally in print. The League will be preparing a more comprehensive analysis of the proposal to be distributed in the next few days. The analysis will include preliminary estimates of the revenues that cities could receive under the proposal per each of the author’s estimates.
