REGIONAL PRIORITY PROJECTS: ROUND 2

Agenda Item #14

Presented to the Transportation Technical Advisory Committee

Dale M. Stith, Principal Transportation Planner

January 3, 2018

PURPOSE

2

Establish the next “pipeline” of Regional Priority Projects

iiiiiiiii

Round 1 Projects

3

HRTPO Actions

• Direct HRTPO staff to work with TTAC to review and identify projects in the 2040 LRTP that could be considered as Round 2 Hampton Roads Regional Priority Projects. Round 1 projects will not be impacted in terms of priority or funding by the work done in Round 2.

HRTPO Board Action from May 18, 2017 Meeting:

• Review the 2040 LRTP projects and submit candidates for Round 2 Hampton Roads Regional Priority Projects.

• HRTPO staff will work with the LRTP Subcommittee to review Round 2 candidate projects and develop a list of project recommendations for consideration by TTAC and the HRTPO Board.

TTAC Action from June 7, 2017 Meeting:

4

LRTP Actions

Directed HRTPO staff to compile a list of candidate projects for Round 2 of the Regional Priority Projects to include:

• Projects collected to date (submitted from regional stakeholders)

• 2040 LRTP projects including the vision plan

• Additional projects submitted by localities

Initial multi-tier project screening process based on:

• Guiding Principles from Round 1

• Submitted 2040 prioritization data

• Regional Travel Demand Model

36 Candidate Projects collected and analyzed

• Additional request from 12/19/17 LRTP Meeting: evaluate Air Terminal Interchange (ATI) with updated project cost estimate

5

LRTP Subcommittee Actions Meetings: 7/12/17, 9/6/17, 12/19/17

Round 1 Projects

Regional Priority Projects should meet the following:

Consistent with HB2313 Legislation

Meet Regional Project Cost Threshold of $100 Million

Included in the HRTPO Board Approved Long-Range Transportation Plan OR

Supported by HRTPO Resolutions

Guiding Principles for selection of Regional Priority Projects Round 1 (October 2013):

6

Project Screening

Screen #1

• Screening based on 2040 LRTP and other relevant factors

Screen #2

• Estimated project cost > $100 Million

Screen #3

• Regional congestion

• “HRTAC shall give priority to those projects that are expected to provide the greatest impact on reducing congestion for the greatest number of citizens” and “shall ensure that the moneys “shall be used for such construction projects.”

7

Project Screening

8

Assumptions for Screen #3

• Screen #3A: Applied congestion analysis from Project Utility component of HRTPO Project Prioritization Tool

• Screening Threshold: 20 pts (out of 30 pts)

• ‘Study’ indicated for those projects without sufficient data to score and currently being analyzed as part of a regional study

• Screen #3B: Used Regional Travel Demand Model to develop Origin-Destination Demand Maps (to evaluate regional congestion impact of project)

Other Assumptions

• Candidate Projects currently under regional study automatically retained (will be further analyzed once study is completed)
