Four Eastern states are working on implementing a mileage tax.
The I-95 Corridor Coalition, which represents transportation agencies, toll authorities, and related organizations, applied for a federal grant last month. TheWashington Post reports that the funding would allow Delaware, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and New Hampshire to test methods that could replace a gas tax, charging drivers a fee based on how many miles they’ve driven to fill “the gaping hole” in the country’s transportation funding.
