Spending Measure R

Measure R money can only be spent according to the Final 2006 1/2 Cent Transportation Sales Tax Measure Expenditure Plan. The plan details four funding pots for Measure R spending:

  • Regional Transportation Program — $326.4 million or 50 percent of Measure R funds will be spent to improve freeway interchanges, add additional lanes, increase safety and improve and reconstruct major commute corridors.
  • Local Transportation Program — 228.4 million over the thirty year period or 35 percent of Measure R funds will be spent to improve each individual city and the County’s local transportation systems.  This includes things such as pothole repair, repaving streets, bridge repair, traffic signals, sidewalk improvement and more.
