Oregon sets transportation funding and limits
The law takes effect July 1, 2025, under an emergency clause. These amounts cover the two-year budget period beginning that day. Oregon's Department of Transportation receives General Fund money for: • Debt payments: $52.729158 million. • Project delivery and support: $171,678. • Driver and motor vehicle services: $562,018. The law also sets spending limits for fees, other revenues, and federal reimbursements from the U.S. Department of Transportation: • Capital improvement: $18.478963 million. • Maintenance: $602.795383 million. • Project delivery and support: $2.323682560 billion. • Interstate bridge replacement: $425.227367 million. • Local government program: $414.818962 million. • Driver and motor vehicle services: $314.924074 million. • State Board of Towing: $663,143. • Commerce and compliance: $111.202621 million. • Policy, data and analysis: $191.753836 million. • Public transportation: $361.060723 million. • Department administration: $264.500977 million. • Finance and budget: $88.279582 million. • Debt payments: $473.430820 million. • Wildlife corridor projects through the Oregon Transportation Infrastructure Fund: $5.5 million. Those limits exclude lottery money and the separate federal funds listed below. For those separate federal funds, spending limits are: • Driver and motor vehicle services: $32.710971 million. • Commerce and compliance: $17.342776 million. • Policy, data and analysis: $5.912961 million. • Public transportation: $151.641163 million. The limits do not promise that every dollar will be spent. This funding goes to agency services and projects, not direct household payments.
Oregon authorizes transportation debt payments
For the two-year period beginning July 1, 2025, Oregon's Department of Transportation has several debt-payment spending rules. It can spend up to $143.579808 million in lottery money from the Administrative Services Economic Development Fund on debt payments. Federal spending for Build America Bonds debt payments has no spending limit under this law. Oregon Transportation Infrastructure Fund spending for debt payments and internally reimbursed expenses also has no limit under this law. These rules authorize agency spending, not household payments, and do not guarantee full use of the lottery amount.
Oregon sets Newberg-Dundee Bypass spending limit
For the two-year period beginning July 1, 2025, Oregon's Department of Transportation can spend up to $19 million on the Newberg-Dundee Bypass Project. The money comes from the American Rescue Plan Act's Coronavirus State Fiscal Recovery Fund. Oregon's Department of Administrative Services transfers these funds to the transportation department. This is a spending ceiling, not a promise to spend the full amount or a direct household payment.
Oregon sets veteran transit spending limit
For the two-year period beginning July 1, 2025, Oregon's Department of Transportation can spend up to $1.109618 million on veteran transit services. The lottery money comes from the Veterans’ Services Fund through the Department of Veterans’ Affairs. This is a spending ceiling, not a promise that all the money will be spent. The law does not set a payment amount for each veteran.
