The City of Roseville has received questions from the public about Placer County Transportation Planning Agency's (PCTPA) South Placer Traffic Relief ballot measure. So we're sharing answers to some frequently asked questions.
What is Measure B and why is it on the ballot?
Residents of Roseville, Rocklin, and Lincoln will have the opportunity to vote on Measure B in the November 2024 election. It’s a 30-year half-cent sales tax that would provide a local transportation funding source to support $1.58 billion in road and highway improvements to address congestion. This would create a local funding “match,” which is required in order to access funding from the state and federal governments for transportation projects.
Placer County currently does not have a local funding match, but 26 other counties do. The South Placer region is one of the most populous regions in the state without a local transportation sales tax funding source.
