Sustainable Transportation:
Paying Our Way From Here to There
Both federal and state transportation revenue has not been sufficient
to keep up with inflation, the rising cost of construction, and the
demands for transportation services of a growing population. Without an increase
in investment, New Mexico's transportation system will become more congested, and
the condition of our transportation infrastructure will become less safe.
Now is the time to plan for the future!
What:
A deliberative conversation on finding sustainable
funding for preserving and improving our highways, bridges, and public transportation options for the residents of New Mexico.
Where & When:
Hyatt Regency Tamaya Resort
Santa Ana Pueblo
August 7-9, 2008
New Mexico's transportation infrastructure is vital to the state's economic prosperity and integral to the quality of life, health, and welfare of our citizens. Traditional funding has been well below the actual needs of maintaining a modern transportation system. Whether you live in a rural community or an urban center, this issue affects you. For these
reasons, the New Mexico Department of Transportation is hosting a three-day town hall on finding sustainable funding for preserving and improving our transportation system.
The goal is to share your best ideas and develop concrete, actionable recommendations
for state and local leaders and policymakers.
Town hall details and registration information are now available.
Seating is limited to 120 participants, but there are spots available!

Event convened by the New Mexico Department of Transportation and NewMARC.
Facilitated by New Mexico First, a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization. |
