South Carolina public policy leaders must develop a comprehensive, sustainable and recurring funding plan for infrastructure. With the strong link between infrastructure, safety, job creation and economic development, funding must be a top priority in 2015. Investing in infrastructure is a core function of government. As we build for the future while driving economic growth and job creation, we plan to explore many different topics during this one day forum including:
Transportation Needs & Priorities
Legislative Panel: Infrastructure Challenges and Opportunities
Road Users Panel: Real Life Situations
How Infrastructure Impacts Tourism
Infrastructure on the Federal level
South Carolina Port Update: Inland Port, Capacity, Growth and Dredging
Local Government Infrastructure Leaders Panel
Design and Cost to Build Roads
How Other States Fund Infrastructure?
Alternative Modes of Transportation Panel
