Executive Summary:
The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) under the direction of Ray D. Pethtel, Commonwealth Transportation Commissioner, was asked by the 1991 General Assembly through Senate Joint Resolution 188 (SJR 188) to study the Transportation Trust Fund allocation formulae.

An Interim Report was provided to the 1992 Session; this volume represents the Final Report of the study. In January 1993, Commissioner Pethtel presented the findings and final recommendations to the Joint Legislative Audit and Review Commission (JLARC). The presentation to JLARC is included at the beginning of this document.

This report was prepared by Mary Lynn Tischer of the VDOT Policy Office in association with Amelia E. Jordan of the VDOT Policy Office, and Amy L. O'Leary and Janice T. Zagardo of the VDOT Research Council. Additional technical analyses were performed by Ernest E. Miller, Jr. of the VDOT Budget Office and Robert O. Biletch of the VDOT Policy Office. Much of this report is based on data developed and described by Lawrence C. Caldwell, III of the VDOT Transportation Planning Division.
