FY19 Annual ReportJuly 1, 2018 - June 30, 2019
By all indications, the past year paved the way for a bright future for the Kansas Turnpike Authority.
During Fiscal Year 2019, the Turnpike maintained a strong financial position. This strong foundation allows us to continue building and making improvements for our customers.
The Turnpike’s net position increased by $45.5M (7.1%) and long-term debt decreased by $27.7M. Toll revenue increased 5.21% from FY18, and the Turnpike maintained its Moody’s Investor Services bond rating of Aa2 with a Stable Outlook.
The face of tolling in Kansas is evolving with new toll legislation passed this year. Now local communities and the state can consider transportation improvements not possible in the past due to funding.
KTA also embarked on a strategic planning process. This realigned the mission, vision and values based on the organization’s strong history, while keeping an eye on the future with new organizational goals.
KTA is committed to continue the evolution of tolling in Kansas. This report highlights our FY19 accomplishments.
