俄勒冈州避免ODOT解雇218M再分配,但长期筹资问题依然存在。 Oregon avoids ODOT layoffs with $218M reallocation, but long-term funding issues remain.

俄勒冈州交通部在立法者通过立法解决2.97亿美元的预算短缺后,将避免裁员和重大服务削减。 Oregon’s Department of Transportation will avoid layoffs and major service cuts after lawmakers passed legislation to address a $297 million budget shortfall. 这项措施从现有运输资金中转拨2.18亿美元,用于维持公路维修、安全业务和车管站服务,不过,诸如通往学校的安全路线和连接俄勒冈州等方案的资金将减少。 The measure redirects $218 million from existing transportation funds to maintain highway maintenance, safety operations, and DMV services, though programs like Safe Routes to School and Connect Oregon will face reduced funding. ODOT的支出也削减了近8 000万美元,继续先前的节省开支努力,自2019年以来,约有700个职位没有填补,占其劳动力的15%左右,自2019年以来,由于2025年7月以来工作人员离职,有350个空缺。 ODOT’s spending is also cut by nearly $80 million, continuing prior cost-saving efforts that have left about 700 positions unfilled—nearly 15% of its workforce—since 2019, with over 350 vacancies due to staff departures since July 2025. 该机构将开始雇用关键角色,同时保持130多个职位空缺。 The agency will begin hiring for critical roles while keeping over 130 positions open. 官方表示行动能提供短期稳定, 但并未解决俄勒冈州公路基金所面临的长期融资危机, Officials say the action provides short-term stability but does not resolve the long-term funding crisis facing Oregon’s State Highway Fund, with lawmakers planning to revisit transportation funding during the 2027 legislative session.
