| dc.description.abstract | The US is facing a national transportation crisis in system performance, funding and policy. The
highway infrastructure alone needs an investment of $3.1 Trillion over the next 30 years. The
next national transportation authorization is considered the most critical since 1956. This bill will
chart the path for transportation in the 21st century. What are the options that may be the pillars
for the authorization? Is there a new transportation vision for the nation? | en_US |
