Show Notes

Peggy and Pat Jones, executive director and CEO, International Bridge, Tunnel And Turnpike Assn. (IBTTA), discuss the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the tolling industry. He says COVID-19 points to the fragility of our infrastructure.

They also discuss:

  • The ASCE Infrastructure Report Card and what the new grade means for our infrastructure.
  • Why we need to invest in our infrastructure and improve equity.
  • If the fuel tax is sufficient to continue the investment we need in our highways, how EVs (electric vehicles) fit into the equation, and how to pay for highways.
