Costs for transportation construction projects continue to increase with inflation, while budgets to complete road projects have not. From January 2014 to December 2016, a portion of what drivers pay at the pump will help fund transportation projects throughout Clark County. Thanks to FRI, 97 design and construction contracts totaling $208 million were awarded as of March 31, 2015. Of these, 61 have been awarded to local small businesses and nearly 2,700 jobs have been created. Fuel Revenue Indexing is fueling our region’s future by providing necessary funds to move forward with transportation projects that will benefit thousands of residents and visitors every day. The Regional Transportation Commission of Southern Nevada (RTC) is committed to working with local jurisdictions to advance projects that will improve commutes, enhance pedestrian safety and create jobs well into the future
