 State lawmakers are now considering leasing state assets in an effort to cut into rising costs.
Governor David Paterson is forming a state panel to review the possibility of leasing highways and bridges to private contractors.
The state commission will include state lawmakers to draw up proposals based on other successful public-private partnerships from across the nation.
Governor Paterson is not entertaining the idea of selling the state's highways and bridges.
A set of recommendations is due to the governor and the state Legislature within 90 days.
