How Demographic Trends May Impact Transportation Funding

Number of people impacts number of tax payers, drivers, riders, flyersPopulation density has implications for aero & transit effectiveness, cost efficiencyWill an aging population have different transportation needs?Will a longer-working population stretch out peak highway travel hours?

How Economic Trends May Impact Transportation Funding

Businesses rely on transportationTransportation is one factor in business location decisions & where they buy servicesVibrant service sector means more trucks, more dispersed; do they pay their share?Service sector may need improved air serviceDecrease in manufacturing means fewer very heavy trucksGlobal economy impacts border crossings

World-wide commercial passenger traffic is expected to increase from 4.4 billion to 9.0 billion between 2007 and 2025, per FAA

In the same period, world air cargo traffic is expected to triple

Nearly 40% of the value of world trade now goes by air (versus under 2% by weight)

Discussion

How Travel Trends May Impact Transportation Funding

All modes rely on user fees generated by auto and truck travel

Will increasing gas prices reduce auto travel?Will increased price of gas make people more likely to try alternative fuel vehicles?

Air travel also generates user feesWill fewer drivers mean more carpoolers, transit riders, or cyclists seeking an alternative to autos?

How System Performance May Impact Transportation Funding

Convenience, connectivity, safety and on-time performance impact rail, bus and air travelSome people will not travel at peak times, or will avoid congested routesSome people will pay to avoid highway congestion
