Description
OBJECTIVE: To conduct on request special studies relating to transportation dealing with
policy, fmance and economic issues generated from a variety of sources. Often these issues
require a very rapid turn around time. These funds would be directed at quick response type
efforts to summarize the issues and offer reasoned recommendations when appropriate.
BACKGROUND: Frequently questions arise from management, legislative branch or private
citizens, dealing with financial, economic or policy actions relating to transportation. Often it is
expected that the answers will be available in a relatively short time. It is essential that reliable
data be developed to address these questions since it could dramatically impact future policy or
legislative action. The Kentucky Transportation Center would be available on request to provide
staff to address these problems. Anticipated activities would include in-depth literature searches,
gathering of current and relevant economic/financial statistics and indicators, evaluate practices in
other states and throughout the nation, and where necessary provide the data in a format that will
enable explanation of the data in the easiest possible manner.
FY 2006 ACCOMPLISHMENTS: Work was approved to answer several questions concerning
State Infrastructure Banks (Sills). Work and reporting to be completed by May 30, 2006.
