The highway and bridge construction industry that benefits from multibillion-dollar public works spending in Pennsylvania has its own ideas -- some old, some new -- about how growing transportation needs should be funded. The multi-faceted approach includes raising the gasoline tax, tolling Interstate 80 and capping state police funding as part of generating $1.1 billion a year extra for roads and bridges. It would raise the state sales tax and combine transit agencies to help provide $865 million a year extra for buses, paratransit and trolleys.

It would raise the state sales tax and combine transit agencies to help provide $865 million a year extra for buses, paratransit and trolleys. Most of the plan would be tied to growing sources of revenue or adjusted according to inflation to fix recurring funding problems for the long term. Representatives of a group calling itself the 'Transportation Construction Industries Coalition' is to present the proposals at a Senate Transportation Committee hearing in Harrisburg.
