Executive Summary:

In May 1979 the Virginia Transportation Research Council was requested by the Public Transportation Division, through Senate Joint Resolution Number 139, to conduct a study of the state taxes and fees imposed upon privately owned motor carriers of passengers in order to determine the effects a reduction of one or more of these taxes would have on state revenues and on the carrier's ability to continue to offer regular-route passenger services. This report has been prepared in response to that request.
