TRB will conduct a webinar on Wednesday, October 18, 2017, from 2:00 PM to 3:30 PM ET that will explore non-traditional ways of raising non-tax and non-toll revenue from state assets. State officials have employed asset development strategies that include air rights, leasing right-of-way for cell towers and other private assets, selling advertising on overpasses, and privatizing courtesy patrol. Presenters will highlight case studies from Maryland, Missouri, and the Federal Transit Administration.

This webinar was organized by the TRB Standing Committee on Revenue and Finance.
