In advance of the 2025 Legislative Session, the Joint Transportation Committee (JTC) has embarked on a statewide roadshow to engage with communities across Oregon. The JTC will be in Bend on Thursday, September 12 for a tour and roundtable discussion with elected leaders to gather input for legislative and funding priorities in 2025.

Members of the public are welcome and invited to engage with the JTC in a public hearing (more information here). The committee is seeking local input as they prepare to develop a statewide transportation funding and policy package, focused on maintenance of existing roads, bridges and facilities and public safety issues.

The Chamber is engaged in the development of the upcoming legislative package and among our key priorities is geographic equity for our region to ensure the needs of our growing community are met. To learn more about the JTC visit and to get involved in the process, visit the website.
