Jim Reger is the president of P.J. Keating Co., a Lunenburg-based producer of crushed stone and hot mix asphalt that does highway contracting. He was recently named chairman of the board of the Construction Industries of Massachusetts, an association that represents all aspects of the transportation and public works construction industry in the state.
Reger recently stated that Massachusetts is facing a transportation crisis, on the heels of a recent study conducted by a statewide transportation coalition that concluded Massachusetts will face a $1 billion shortfall in the next 20 years just trying to keep the state's roadways at their current level of functionality. As part of his proposed solution, Reger has advocated raising the state gasoline tax as a means of funding critical road projects.
