Keeping California Mobile

Posted: 9/29/2025

Working with the Associated General Contractors of California (AGC) and AGC San Diego ChapterTRIP has released its most recent report: “Keeping California Mobile: Providing a Modern, Sustainable Transportation System in the Golden State.”

The report examines California’s road and bridge conditions, congestion and reliability, economic development, highway safety, vehicle travel trends, and the impact of recent transportation funding increases at the state and federal level.

Accessibility and connectivity are critical factors in a state’s quality of life and economic competitiveness. The growth and development of a state or region hinges on efficient and safe access to employment, customers, commerce, recreation, education and healthcare via multiple transportation modes. Californian’s quality of life in the Golden State, and the pace of the state’s economic growth, will be closely tied to the condition, efficiency, safety and resiliency of its transportation system.

An adequate and reliable source of transportation funding will be critical to California’s ability to provide a well-maintained system of roads, highways, bridges, transit, pedestrian and bicycle facilities that will be needed to ensure people and businesses have safe and reliable access within and between communities.
