About the Oregon Travel Information Council (TIC)... A self-funded state agency, TIC links Oregon motorists with businesses through highway signs, rest area advertising products, TripCheck.com listings, wireless internet connections, and staffed welcome centers. The agency also has the privilege of staffing the Transportation and Tourism Task Force - a collection of public and private entities working together to synchronize tourism and transportation enhancement efforts throughout Oregon. In addition, TIC provides for the presentation of Oregon’s history and unique physical features through stewardship of the Oregon Heritage Tree and Oregon Historical Marker programs.
