Missouri Highway Commissioner Greg Smith told the Missouri Highway 13 Corridor Coalition not to expect a fuel-tax increase to pass the Legislature this year.

“I don't feel there's any way to get a fuel tax increase this year,” Smith said March 14. He encouraged coalition members attending the meeting to talk to their legislators.

If an increase is not passed this year, he said, the Legislature may pass it next year, which is not an election year.
