Sounds like Corbett is going to punt the transportation funding issue down the road again.

Corbett stresses state pension crisis in 2013 agenda

Corbett did not mention another issue viewed as critical by many lawmakers and others, transportation funding. When asked whether he would present a plan next year, he gave a one-word answer: "Yes."

Later, his spokesman, Kevin Harley, said the governor would offer a plan in his February budget address, but offered no specifics on how to pay for it. The state Senate may well get the jump on the governor. "We're tired of waiting," said Sen. John Rafferty (R., Chester), chairman of the Transportation Committee, who is preparing a package of bills to introduce in January that would dedicate up to $2 billion for bridge and road repair. "It's not just a necessity, but essential for Pennsylvania."
