To authorize the Department of Transportation to enter “public-private partnerships” and borrow money ("sell bonds") to provide a “transportation facility,” which among other things means toll roads, and potentially the Detroit River International Crossing project. The bill establishes a regulatory framework for such projects, including provisions allowing future toll revenue to be pledged against debt incurred for the project.
