2.A. RECOMMENDED APPROVAL: Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) Goals and Objectives

MR. MICHAEL LYNCH, Palm Beach TPA LRTP Coordinator, stated the LRTP Goals were built over the TPA’s Vision of a safe, efficient, and connected multimodal transportation system. He noted the Goals and Objectives would include the addition of FAST Act Performance Measures, refinements to previous goals and objectives with a prioritization of measurability and an emphasis on TPA priorities. He noted the document structure would be updated to reflect the five (5) goals to support the vision, objectives and defined measures, actual values, and future targets that are adopted and proposed. He noted the provided presentation would only highlight proposed targets as available to change and not the actual values. He noted under Goal 1 the Pavement, Bridges and Transit Assets measures were per the FAST Act and would not change from what was provided in the agenda packet. He reviewed the existing and additional measures under the Protect Environment objective.

Mr. Jason Mankoff joined the meeting at 1:41 p.m.

Ms. Chelsea Smith Reed joined the meeting at 1:43 p.m.

MR. LYNCH reviewed Goal 2 and noted the number of rail fatalities and percentage of mileage that provides pedestrian facilities within 2 miles of elementary schools are new additions. He noted the rail fatalities numbers provided are actual fatalities caused by the rail service.

Ms. Judy Daversa joined the meeting at 1:45 p.m.

MR. LYNCH reviewed Goal 3 changes that include ratio of transit versus car average commute time, and Goal 4 changes with the addition of separated bike lanes. He reviewed Goal 5’s objectives and proposed targets for commuter mode split and annual freight tonnage through the Port of Palm Beach and Palm Beach International Airport. He reviewed the 2040 measures that were not retained in the 2045 update as outlined in the presentation, and a schedule summary.

A brief discussion ensued on measuring air quality.

MR. CARROLL requested an example of a facility on the Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) being analyzed for vulnerability using the 2-foot sea-level rise measure.

MR. LYNCH noted that I-95 is an example of a facility that can withstand 2-foot sea-level rise.

MR. NICK UHREN, Palm Beach TPA Executive Director, stated SIS facilities are the major roads that cross-county lines that carrier interstate and intrastate heaviest commerce and traffic. He noted they also connect to the airports, seaports and include rail lines. He clarified that the TPA is focusing on the base elevation of the roadways and, through map analysis, can determine if a facility would be underwater with a 2-foot sea-level rise.

MOTION to Recommend Approval of the LRTP Goals and Objectives. Motion by Mr. Bill Klein, seconded by Mr. Michael Fitzpatrick, and carried 11-0.

PALM BEACH TRANSPORTATION PLANNING AGENCY VISION ZERO ACTION PLAN

ACTIONS - WELL-INFORMED AND DATA DRIVEN

Vision Zero promotes a culture of safety that prioritizes human life and wellness for all people, regardless of mode

and is grounded in six key principals.

• Traffic–related deaths and serious injuries are preventable and unacceptable.

• Human life takes priority over mobility.

• Human error is inevitable, so the transportation system should allow for it to happen without death or

serious injury.

• A systems-level approach to safety should be adopted to effect change.

• Safe human behaviors, education, and enforcement are essential contributors to a safe system.

• High speed is a primary cause of traffic death and serious injury; it should be managed with sensitivity to

vulnerable road users.

A multi-disciplinary approach involving policy, funding and culture can move the TPA toward zero fatalities and

serious injuries by addressing the following key crash trends.

Arterials – Arterial roadways accounted for between 31% and 43% of all crashes by each mode. On

arterials, intersection and non-intersection crashes were split approximately evenly for each mode, with

the exception of pedestrian-involved crashes, which occurred predominantly at non-intersections (69%).

Dark Unlit and Lighted Conditions – Crash analysis suggests that high crash locations with an increased

frequency of dark-unlit crashes are areas where improved lighting conditions could have a significant

impact. The high number of crashes occurring under dark-lighted conditions suggests that lighting

guidelines may need to be further investigated to ensure that lit areas have sufficient lighting coverage.

Driver Behavior – While driver behavior relating to the cause of a crash can be difficult to quantify, the

crash analysis identified several behavior-related issues. Drug or alcohol involved crashes accounted for

16% of fatal and serious injury crashes. Speeding was the primary contributing factor in 4% of crashes,

predominantly occurring on roads with posted speed limits of 35 mph or less. Younger drivers were also

overrepresented in speeding-related crashes.

Vulnerable Road Users – Vulnerable road users, both by mode and age, were disproportionally

represented in fatal and serious injury crashes. Motorcyclists, bicyclists, and pedestrians account for less

than 3% of the mode share, but over 30% of the fatal and serious injury crashes.

2.A

PALM BEACH TRANSPORTATION PLANNING AGENCY VISION ZERO ACTION PLAN

The actions presented in this plan are based on national best practices gleaned from cities that have implemented

Vision Zero initiatives and regional strategic safety plans and tailored specifically to the Palm Beach TPA in direct

response to the fatal and serious injury crash data. Action items are categorized under the following themes:

Policy: Adopting a data-driven approach is the crux of establishing a successful Vision Zero action plan

and sharing that data sends powerful messages to politicians, stakeholders, and the public to influence

policy changes.

Funding: The current funding programs administered by the TPA for various projects annually can be

revised to reflect the findings of the Vision Zero Action Plan and implement action items and needed

infrastructure improvements to ensure safety for all users. Opportunities will exist to obtain additional

funding and assist other agencies in obtaining safety funding. These activities work together with the

Transportation Plan, the TIP and other TPA plans and programs to provide a complete transportation

system for all users.

Culture: Inducing a cultural shift towards safer streets includes establishing ongoing and improved data

collection and reporting, prioritizing vulnerable road users, and institutionalizing Vision Zero principles.

Addressing these issues requires a strong coalition of stakeholders. Through its public outreach efforts,

the TPA already has a venue to provide information on the Vision Zero goals and elements to local

communities, homeowner associations, community events and the general public.

Through the Action Items and Performance Measures identified in the following tables, the TPA can take the

lead and foster development and implementation of Vison Zero efforts in Palm Beach County and Southeast

Florida.

The Palm Beach TPA

In July 2016, the TPA adopted a 5-Year Strategic Plan as a measurable guide toward achieving its mission and vision. The Plan defines specific, incremental steps (strategies) that will be initiated, monitored for timely progress, and reported to the TPA Governing Board and the public. The six goals align with the TPA’s Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP), which adopted annually. They frame the approach to implement the Strategic Plan and provide clarity of purpose and direction.

Several benefits are derived from developing and implementing the Strategic Plan. Governing Board priorities are clearly communicated for the TPA Executive Director and staff to follow. Metrics are established for measuring progress on each priority and adjusting actions to achieve the strategic objectives, efficiently and cost-effectively. Transparency and accountability is provided to the public, the partnering organizations, and the member agencies of the TPA.

The Palm Beach Transportation Planning Agency (TPA) is responsible for transportation planning and programming for all of Palm Beach County.

Core ProductsUnified Planning Work Program (UPWP)

Produced by the TPA and updated every two years, the UPWP is guided by the TPA’s mission and vision. It includes a description of the planning work and resulting

products, responsible agencies, schedules, cost and funding sources.

The UPWP was adopted and can be viewed here: PalmBeachTPA.org/UPWP.

Public Participation Plan (PPP)

The PPP outlines the Palm Beach TPA’s plan and associated strategies for engaging the public in the transportation planning process for Palm Beach County and the Miami Urbanized Area. This document assists the TPA in carrying out its mission in an open process that provides complete information, timely public notice, full public access to key decisions, and support for early and continued involvement.

The current plan can be viewed here:

PalmBeachTPA.org/Public-Participation-Plan

Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP)

Produced by the Palm Beach TPA and updated every five years, the LRTP establishes a list of cost feasible transportation projects and programs for the next 25 years.

The 2040 Plan forecasts travel demand and identifies projects and services to efficiently move people and goods through the year 2040. Formulated over a two-year process, it maps out the next 25 years of state and federal transportation system investments in Palm Beach County. In addition to maintaining the existing transportation system, the LRTP includes the following major categories for new projects:

1. Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) projects identifiedby FDOT to be either endorsed, modified or rejectedby the TPA Governing Board.

2. Major Highway, Transit and Freight projectsidentified by the TPA Board for implementation.

3. An annual funding set-aside for the Local InitiativesProgram to implement lower cost local projects.

4. An annual funding set-aside for the TransportationAlternatives Program to implement non-motorizedinfrastructure projects.

The 2040 LRTP is also incorporated into and fully consistent with the 2040 Southeast Florida Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). For more information on the RTP which addresses regional transportation projects and issues throughout Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade counties, visit SEFTC.org.

The Directions 2040 LRTP was adopted in October 2014 and can be viewed here: PalmBeachTPA.org/LRTP. The 2045 LRTP update is underway and will be presented to the Governing Board for adoption in fall 2019.

21

Core ProductsList of Priority Projects

Pursuant to Section 339.175(8), F.S., the TPA annually adopts a list of transportation system priority projects from the LRTP and transmits the list to FDOT for use in developing the next draft Five-Year Work Program and TIP. The TPA Priority Projects are consistent with the goals, objectives and values of the TPA’s adopted LRTP and further the TPA vision of creating a safe, efficient, and connected multimodal transportation system.

The current list of Priority Projects for Fiscal Years (FY) 2020-2024 was adopted in September 2018, and can be viewed here: PalmBeachTPA.org/priorities. The TPA and FDOT work collaboratively to develop the TIP. After the TPA provides its Priority Projects to FDOT, they then use the list to prepare the work program. FDOT presents the work program to the TPA and receives requests for new projects to be added to, or existing projects to be deleted from the district work program.

The FDOT Work Program is typically presented for public review and comment and for Governing Board approval in October or December of each year. The Board approved the FDOT FY 2019-2023 Draft Tentative Work Program in December 2018.

Transportation Improvement Program (TIP)

The TIP allocates funds to projects from the LRTP over the next 5 years. It is a staged program encompassing a five-year period consisting of all regionally significant transportation improvements to all modes of travel in Palm Beach County. The TIP identifies projects for maintaining and improving the transportation system funded by Federal, State and local sources in order to assist local governments with their transportation planning efforts. The TIP is based on and reflects FDOT’s Work Program for Palm Beach County, and generally moves forward the projects in the time frame from previous TIPs.

Projects in the TIP are identified through a continuing, cooperative, comprehensive and coordinated effort involving FDOT, municipalities within the County, Palm Beach County (including Palm Tran, Engineering, and Airports), the Port of Palm Beach, and SFRTA. Consultation is also carried out with the Miami-Dade and Broward MPO’s during the TIP development process.

The FY 2019-2023 TIP was adopted in June 2018, and can be viewed here: PalmBeachTPA.org/TIP.

This graphic clarifies the relationship between the TPA Priority List, the FDOT draft work program, and the TPA TIP. It highlights TPA Board actions and other key dates.

Buffered Bike Lanes are designated bicycle lanes paired with a buffer space separating the bicycle lane from the adjacent motor vehicle travel lane and/or parking lane.

A Designated Bike Lane is a portion of the roadway that is identified through striping, signage, and pavement markings for the preferred or exclusive use of bicyclists.

A subset of the Buffered Bike Lanes group, Protected Bike Lanes separate cyclists from vehicle travel by a physical barrier.

Shared Lane Markings or “sharrows,” are road markings used to indicate a shared lane environment for bicycles and automobiles.

Shoulders are the paved section of road outside of the travel lane. A paved or partially paved shoulder offers cyclists an alternative to ride with some separation from vehicular traffic.

CHAIR VALECHÉ noted a number of TPA Board members attended the 2019 regional Safe Streets Summit in Miami. He highlighted the seamless transportation experience with Brightline and the informative sessions held. He congratulated Council Member Kuretski, Mayors Grant and Marino on their re-election and Mayor-Elect James on his election.

COUNCIL MEMBER KURETSKI highlighted key concerns that were brought up during his recent campaign trail, which included establishing noise walls, intersection signalization, and safety concerns. He requested information from FDOT regarding the process to establish noise walls.

COUNCIL MEMBER BRINKMAN welcomed meeting attendees to the Village of Palm Springs and provided a background of the Village.

MAYOR TRIOLO introduced the City of Lake Worth Beach and provided a background on the name change with a goal to help make a distinction between the City’s boundaries and Lake Worth Road.

COMMISSIONER WEINROTH noted the discussion at the recent Metropolitan Planning Organization Advisory Council (MPOAC) meeting on State Bill 7068 that seeks to create three new Multi-Use Corridors of Regional Economic Significance. He noted that this change would reduce the effectiveness of the TPA programming money and requested a legislative report be provided to the Board members on a regular basis.

COMMISSIONER WEISS suggested that the Palm Beach TPA act in a coordinated manner with the Broward MPO and Miami-Dade TPO on any legislative matters of regional consensus.

COUNCILMAN HMARA requested a copy of the legislative report for the League of Cities Florida Legislative Action Day. He noted in celebration of Florida Bicycle Month the Village of Royal Palm Beach adopted a Resolution in support of Bicycle Month and held their 2nd Annual Bicycle Rodeo that supports bicycle safety for kids.

MOTION TO APPROVE Palm Beach TPA FY 20 Budget for Submittal to Palm Beach County

The TPA Board approved the FY 20 TPA annual operating budget for submittal to Palm Beach County in accordance with the timetable established by the County’s Administrator and as required in the Interlocal Agreement for Staff and Services between the TPA and County. It was noted that:

• The TPA’s FY 20 operating budget is consistent with the TPA’s adopted FY 20 Unified Planning Work Program as amended on February 21, 2019;

• This budget will only be necessary if the TPA remains hosted by the County on October 1, 2019;

• The budget retains previous TPA Board approval of 15 full-time staff positions; and

• The budget removes matching funds from Palm Beach County for FTA planning funds and begins to use a soft match for these grant funds instead.
