The passage of Senate Bill 45 substantially changed the process by which state and federal transportation funds are allocated, placing most of the responsibility for planning and prioritizing project funding in the hands of local and regional agencies rather than the state. This was a significant shift. It essentially moved the process from one that looked at statewide considerations when deciding to build roads, to one that focused on the needs of the local agencies. It meant that cities began to have the clout: both for the building and refurbishment of roads in their vicinity to the relinquishment of state highways to local control to gain the ability to make changes at the local level in terms of civic improvements.
Additionally, in 1997, to improve efficiency and reduce congestion, the Carquinez Bridge’s first dedicated electronic toll collection lane opened in August.

In 1998, SB 45 was passed. This bill introduced new changes in the structure of the state transportation program. The overall theme of the legislation was the need to increase local and regional flexibility over the use of transportation resources and greater local and regional control in project selection and design. It resulted in the development of a Transportation Strategic Plan. This plan included an in-depth discussion of issues related to state highways and brief discussions of issues related to intercity passenger rail, interregional highway system grade separations, and mass transit guideways.It expressed the following key principles:
Additionally, 1998 saw the extension of Route 210 along Route 30 to end in Redlands, and Route 57 taking over the former portion of I-210 between Pomona and San Dimas. There were also numerous deletions of segments and authorizations of relinquishments.

The new millennium was marked as a time where relinquishment was king. From this point on, new state routes are rarely created or extended. Rather, the theme is relinquishment to local control. Often, the definition of the route is unchanged, permitting Caltrans to adopt some new routing if ever desired (but it won't be), but the current routing is given back to the municipality and can't be readopted as a state highway. The process often involves Caltrans having to bring the route up to some maintenance standard before the municipality accepts it, or providing money to the municipality for them to do it.

2017 was a landmark year for transportation, with the passage of Senate Bill 1, the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, which was signed into law on April 28, 2017. This legislative package invests $54 billion over the next decade to fix roads, freeways and bridges in communities across California and puts more dollars toward transit and safety. These funds will be split equally between state and local investments. A website was created, Rebuilding CA, to provide the public with information on where the funds were being spent. The bulk of these funds, with respect to highways, were focused on the rehabilitation of existing roadways, not new road construction. According to the website, California’s state-maintained transportation infrastructure will receive roughly half of SB 1 revenue: $26 billion. The other half will go to local roads, transit agencies and an expansion of the state’s growing network of pedestrian and cycle routes. Each year, this new funding will be used to tackle deferred maintenance needs both on the state highway system and the local road system, including $1.8 billion for rehabilitation of the state highway system, and $400 million for repairs to bridges and culverts. The controversial aspect of this program is that these funds were being raised through increases in the state portion of the tax on Gasoline.
What is notable about SB1 is that, unless other gas tax increases, it isn't a one time increase that doesn't adjust over time. From the bill's summary:
This bill would create the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Program to address deferred maintenance on the state highway system and the local street and road system. The bill would require the California Transportation Commission to adopt performance criteria, consistent with a specified asset management plan, to ensure efficient use of certain funds available for the program. The bill would provide for the deposit of various funds for the program in the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account, which the bill would create in the State Transportation Fund, including revenues attributable to a $0.12 per gallon increase in the motor vehicle fuel (gasoline) tax imposed by the bill with an inflation adjustment, as provided, 50% of a $0.20 per gallon increase in the diesel excise tax, with an inflation adjustment, as provided, a portion of a new transportation improvement fee imposed under the Vehicle License Fee Law with a varying fee between $25 and $175 based on vehicle value and with an inflation adjustment, as provided, and a new $100 annual vehicle registration fee applicable only to zero-emission vehicles model year 2020 and later, with an inflation adjustment, as provided. The bill would provide that the fuel excise tax increases take effect on November 1, 2017, the transportation improvement fee takes effect on January 1, 2018, and the zero-emission vehicle registration fee takes effect on July 1, 2020.
This bill would annually set aside $200,000,000 of the funds available for the program to fund road maintenance and rehabilitation purposes in counties that have sought and received voter approval of taxes or that have imposed fees, including uniform developer fees, as defined, which taxes or fees are dedicated solely to transportation improvements. These funds would be continuously appropriated for allocation pursuant to guidelines to be developed by the California Transportation Commission in consultation with local agencies. The bill would require $100,000,000 of the funds available for the program to be available annually for expenditure, upon appropriation by the Legislature, on the Active Transportation Program. The bill would require $400,000,000 of the funds available for the program to be available annually for expenditure, upon appropriation by the Legislature, on state highway bridge and culvert maintenance and rehabilitation. The bill would require $5,000,000 of the funds available for the program that are not restricted by Article XIX of the California Constitution to be appropriated each fiscal year to the California Workforce Development Board to assist local agencies to implement policies to promote preapprenticeship training programs to carry out specified projects funded by the account. The bill would require $25,000,000 of the funds available for the program to be annually transferred to the State Highway Account for expenditure on the freeway service patrol program. The bill would require $25,000,000 of the funds available for the program to be available annually for expenditure, upon appropriation by the Legislature, on local planning grants. The bill would authorize annual appropriations of $5,000,000 and $2,000,000 of the funds available for the program to the University of California and the California State University, respectively, for the purpose of conducting transportation research and transportation-related workforce education, training, and development, as specified. The bill would require the remaining funds available for the program to be allocated 50% for maintenance of the state highway system or to the state highway operation and protection program and 50% to cities and counties pursuant to a specified formula. The bill would impose various requirements on the department and agencies receiving these funds. The bill would authorize a city or county to spend its apportionment of funds under the program on transportation priorities other than those allowable pursuant to the program if the city’s or county’s average Pavement Condition Index meets or exceeds 80.
