- has anyone done a deep dive yet on what it would look like for oregon to flex more federal transportation funds from highways to transit + safety projects? @nomorefreewayspdx.com perhaps?
- It’s unfortunately tricky to get straight answers from ODOT about this. But this legislative session is going to provide a real unique opportunity to really call to question if we can afford these damn megaprojects. Stay tuned
- ODOT plays games to maximize what they can spend on highways. For example they are using those flexible federal funds to borrow against for their almost $1B curb ramp legal settlement. They could have used restricted gas tax for that, but instead committed the flexible funds 🤦♀️Jan 19, 2026 04:59
