ACT 89 • the PTC’s annual payments to PennDOT will remain at $450 million for the next eight years — through June of 2022. But, starting in fiscal year (FY) 2023, the payments drop sharply to $50 million per year until the Act 44 agreement ends in FY 2057. The Turnpike’s contribution will be shifted entirely to the support of public transportation.
the law will provide additional funding from the Commonwealth, through the Oil Company Franchise Tax. This additional revenue stream is expected to continue to grow annually, reaching an estimated $87 million per year by year five. The funding would be sufficient to complete the Southern Beltway segment between U.S. Route 22 and Interstate 79 and also can be used for work on the remaining portions of the Southern Beltway & the Mon-Fayette Expressway and additional slip ramps.
The Act requires additional consideration be given to utilization of small and diverse business enterprises Raise speed limit to 70 MPH where appropriate
Did not include enforcement language for AET that would ensure timely payment of tolls by providing penalties for unpaid toll violations and by punishing those who deliberately seek to evade tolls. The provisions, which would have led to suspension of a vehicle’s registration upon a preset number of toll violations and language that would have provided greater clarity on the issue of video tolling.

New HMA projects constructed in 2014 will use the PTC’s new CS Section 409 that includes new Lot and Sublot criteria.
Roadway loose samples and cores obtained from each Sublot will be tested. • Sublot results will be averaged and used as Acceptance and payment criteria. • Table I was also modified for payment factors.
Requires all completed wearing surface longitudinal and transverse joints to be sealed with a rubberize joint sealing material in accordance with Section 705.4(c)
