7D: Infrastructure Funding

7D: Regional Infrastructure Maintenance Funding

Fundamental infrastructure like roadways, bridges, and related transportation infrastructure contributes significantly to the daily experience of residents and community perception of visitors. The funding necessary to keep these assets well maintained is both inadequate at the aggregate level and inequitably distributed at the local level. We support efforts to advocate for sustainable and equitably distributed regional funding sources to maintain this critical infrastructure.

Value to the Community

The condition of Indy's local streets is a common concern of residents. With state or federal funding sources like gas taxes not equitably accounting for the maintenance costs of Indy's more heavily traveled thoroughfares, it presents a frequent funding dilemma for local government.

Value to the Hospitality Industry

The condition of Indy's streets contributes to a visitor's perception of Indy as a vibrant destination, particularly for those driving to the city and for those traveling to non-downtown attractions. In addition to negative perceptions for visitors, potholes, emergency road closures, antiquated signal infrastructure, and inadequate winter maintenance can impact staffing as employees are delayed by unexpected and unnecessary transportation issues.
