With over 60 inches of snow this season, the winter of 2007-2008 was #1 in terms of record snowfall for the past 29 years. In addition to tying up airports and train stations, the weather has caused an unprecedented year for potholes. Motorists dodge and weave the dangerous potholes on state and local roads.

With no capital program, Illinois doesn’t have the needed funds to fix roads. The last capital program was passed in 1999, and the program phased out in 2002, creating a six-year backlog of projects to improve our roads.

A "Needs Assessment Study" conducted by the American Economics Group in November 2006, reported that Illinois requires $5 billion each year for the next five years in order to maintain and improve our current transportation system

Our needs don’t match the dollars, something must be done!
