What is OReGO?

Currently, Oregonians pay a fuel tax to fund road preservation and improvement projects. But cars and trucks are using less gas or run on electricity, shrinking funds for our roads and bridges. With the OReGO pay-per-mile system, Oregonians pay for the miles they drive instead of gallons consumed.

ODOT successfully launched OReGO on July 1, 2015 with no sunset date.

With volunteer drivers, the program is demonstrating a new way to fund road maintenance, preservation, and improvements. OReGO volunteers pay a per-mile charge for the miles they drive and receive a non-refundable credit for fuels tax paid at the pump, and drivers of highly efficient vehicles and EVs are eligible for reduced registration fees. Learn more about OReGO, and the account managers (private companies) we partner with to help drivers report their miles.

Oregon has the solution for sustainable road maintenance in the wake of climate change

Road usage charging is advancing quickly around the U.S. and may be the most impactful transportation innovation since Oregon implemented the nation's first gas tax a century ago (1918). The nation soon followed.

Now, states are struggling to pay for transportation. Fuel taxes become obsolete as we evolve toward a fully-electric fleet. Further, as state departments of transportation work to reduce their contributions to climate change, they are seeking alternative ways to generate funding that also help reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

A road usage charge is that solution. This new funding model weans us off fossil fuels using a modern, technology-based solution that combats climate change while assessing drivers fairly for their road use.

Legislation cuts fees for OReGO drivers

Typically, drivers pay two to four years’ worth of registration fees in advance when purchasing a car or renewing their registration. Electric and high-mpg vehicle supplemental fees increased in 2020 and 2022, the combined up-front registration fee could amount to hundreds of dollars.
 
But if drivers enroll in OReGO, electric and high-mpg vehicle owners do not have to pay the supplemental registration fee increases. Instead, they pay just the base registration ($43 per year) plus the road charge of 2 cents per mile.

How do EV drivers benefit by paying a road usage charge?

We reviewed the research to identify how electric vehicle owners might benefit by joining OReGO and paying a road usage charge. Here's a summary of our findings:
