About Measure C

Measure C has a 37-year legacy of working to improve the lives of Fresno County residents by investing in vital transportation improvements across the county.

Measure C continues to make significant improvements in streets and roadways. Nearly one-third of its funds go to the 15 cities and Fresno County for local road repairs and improvements. Another third is dedicated to making state and local highways safer, more efficient, and less harmful to air quality.

Other projects funded by Measure C’s half-cent sales tax include:

  • Creating safe bike lanes and walking trails
  • Providing discounted transportation services for seniors, rural communities, carpoolers and agricultural workers
  • Educational programs that focus on the future of transportation
  • and more

More than $2.1 billion has been invested to improve transportation facilities and services in urban and rural areas. This doesn’t include additional matching funds from state and federal agencies. The matching funds would have gone to other cities or counties if not for Measure C funding.
