State Highway Bank Balances Used to Fund TxDOT Construction and Maintenance Costs

TxDOT is committed to executing our mission, Connecting You with Texas, by being good stewards of taxpayer funds in a rapidly growing state with evolving transportation needs. TxDOT’s funding comes from a variety of sources, including fuel tax, vehicle registration fees, federal funds, and voter-approved Proposition 1 (2014) and Proposition 7 (2015), which are used to develop, build, and maintain roads throughout the state. Delivering projects on time and on budget are top priorities. Below is a monthly snapshot of key State Highway financial activities to show how funds held by the Texas Comptroller’s office for TxDOT are used to build and maintain Texas highways.
