Oregon’s new transportation bill secures $4.3 billion to save jobs and maintain infrastructure amid staffing and funding challenges.
Oregon’s transportation bill, signed by Governor Kotek, will deliver $4.3 billion over 10 years, primarily from higher gas taxes and fees, preventing hundreds of layoffs and saving 382 jobs and 12 maintenance stations.
Half of the State Highway Fund’s near-term revenue will go to ODOT, with local governments seeing a 30% funding boost.
ODOT faces a 60% increase in employee departures in 2025, leaving 759 positions unfilled, prompting new hiring for winter readiness.
While the funding restores most of ODOT’s 2025–27 budget, austerity measures continue until January, and long-term stability remains uncertain due to inflation and projected shortfalls.
