Agenda Packet Memo Transportation Enhancements Round 19 – TETF Rankings Background:

The Transportation Enhancement (TE) program was funded under SAFETEA-LU through a 10 percent set aside from Surface Transportation Program (STP) funds. The TE process is conducted through a local project application review and ranking, with final recommendation of projects to be funded from the Statewide Transportation Enhancement Review Committee (TERC). This program was developed to enhance surface transportation activities by developing projects that go above and beyond what transportation departments typically do. This program has 12 eligible categories for funding that include alternative mode enhancements, historic preservation, landscaping and other beautification activities. Discussion Points:

The region received 10 local applications and 1 state application for the final submission to ADOT for consideration. Application funding requests total approximately $8 million. The combined regional total for the projects is under the estimated state cap and will be forwarded to the TERC for consideration. The applications were reviewed and ranked by the PAG Transportation Enhancement Task Force. The Task Force consists of members who represent the different eligible categories of TE funding. The Task Force ranking recommendation is attached. ADOT’s review committee will meet in early October to develop funding recommendations that will be sent to the Arizona State Transportation Board for final determination, most likely in November or December. NOTE: During the development of the Round 19 applications a new Surface Transportation bill was passed by Congress and signed into law by the president, called MAP-21. MAP-21 changes Transportation Enhancements into Transportation Alternatives. Transportation Alternatives reduces the eligible activities from 12 to 8 and also apportions TA funding directly to PAG. Because TE projects selected this year are placed on a schedule to be


constructed in three years, ADOT is still waiting for guidance as to which Surface Transportation bill, SAFETEA-LU or MAP-21, they should conduct round 19 under. Even after we know which bill we are going to be working off of, several questions of how the new MAP-21 will be interpreted will need to be answered. At this point, a full range of possibilities could still take place from:

• Round 19 moving forward under SAFTEA-LU

• Round 19 moving forward under MAP-21, with PAG projects still competing statewide. Under this scenario several projects would no longer be eligible.

• Round 19 moving forward under MAP-21, with PAG project being sent back to PAG to fund out of the PAG region’s direct apportionment. This scenario means PAG would be moving from a competitive grant process to a programming process. The region would need to agree on a process to program these TA funds.

o Process would more than likely include the PAG Bicycle and Pedestrian Working Group.

o TA funds combined Transportation Enhancements and Safe Routes to School, both processes need to be combined.

o MAP-21 is only a two year bill. Who know how many extensions we are likely to see but preference may need to be given to projects that are “ready to go”.

Recommendation:

The Committee is asked to recommend forwarding the Transportation Enhancements Round 19 proposed rankings to Management Committee. Attachment: Round 19 TE rankings

RTA Transportation Planning Committee Wednesday, September 5, 2012

Agenda Packet Memo

Regional Dial-a-ride Update

Background: In January 2012, the RTA Board approved establishing regional dial-a-ride service polices and standards; amending the intergovernmental agreement (IGA) with the Town of Oro Valley to merge the Town’s Coyote Run service into the regional dial-a-ride system, and; using the name Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride as the initial regional dial-a-ride brand. These actions are part of a strategy of making incremental progress in developing a seamless regional dial-a-ride system. The RTA has three contracts/agreements for the provision of public transportation transit services, which will conclude on June 30, 2012. Those contracts/agreements include RTA Special Needs Transit (Handicar), Sun Shuttle (MV Transportation) and Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride (Town of Oro Valley). The procurement of these service contracts/agreements offers an opportunity to make additional regional dial-a-ride progress. Discussion Points: This memo provides an update on the following interrelated regional dial-a-ride items:

• Oro Valley Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride Results

• Optional Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Service Area Expansion

• Transit Service Procurement Oro Valley Sun Shuttle Dial-a-ride Results On Feb. 13, 2012, the Town of Oro Valley began transit service as part of the improved regional Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride system. Under the regional Sun Shuttle Dial-a-ride IGA , the RTA funds general public trips on the Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride Oro Valley and all regional ADA dial-a-ride trips originating in the Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride Oro Valley service area. At the Town’s discretion, it funds senior trips traveling outside of the general public Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride Oro Valley zone. The Town of Oro Valley agreed to operate these dial-a-ride services under the newly approved regional dial-a-ride service policies and regional system brand, eliminating the Town’s Coyote Run transit service brand.

2

The merger of the Town’s transit service into the Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride system was expected to improve operational efficiencies and reduce costs for the Town of Oro Valley thru the elimination of duplicative ADA trips operated by Handi-car. The merging was also expected to help the Town sustain its senior transit service and be cost neutral for the RTA. The initial results of the regional dial-a-ride improvements to the Oro Valley Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride system are promising. As shown in Attachment A, ridership has increased significantly from an average of 680 boardings per month to approximately an average of 1,050 boardings per month. In addition, the improvements have decreased costs to both the Town of Oro Valley and the RTA. The RTA estimated net savings to date is $89,582 ($162,000 annualized) compared to assigning the ADA trips to Handi-car. Given these initial results, the Town of Oro Valley staff has expressed their support for continuing the Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride IGA with the RTA beyond June 2013. Optional ADA Service Area Expansion Over the last nine months, the Transit Working Group has been evaluating the potential expansion of the optional ADA service area as part of a set of initial regional dial-a-ride objectives. This evaluation identified five areas for potential optional ADA service expansion, ranked these potential areas based on estimated ADA need, estimated the annual costs for providing services to these areas, compared the costs against the 20 year allocation for Special Needs Transit in the RTA Plan, and drafted potential implementation strategies. Based on this evaluation, the Transit Working Group is recommending that expansion of the optional ADA service area be phased as follows:

• Phase 1 - Implement service expansion in the Old Town Marana/Gladden Farms Area (shown in Attachment B as Expansion Area 1) in FY2012/2013.

• Phase 2 - Implement service expansion in the Dove Mountain Area (shown in Attachment B as Expansion Area 2) and the Green Valley Area (shown in Attachment B as Expansion Area 3) with improved efficiencies resulting from the re-procurement of transit services in June 2013.

With the savings from the Oro Valley Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride, the RTA has budget and contract capacity with Handicar to implement Phase 1, Old Town Marana/Gladden Farms service expansion. It is anticipated that this service expansion would occur in January 2013. Transit Service Procurement Given the above, staff has begun drafting a scope of work as part of request for proposal (RFP) for transit services contract beginning on July 1, 2013. It is anticipated that the RFP would be released in October 2012 and a recommendation for award would be forwarded to the RTA Board by January 2013. The Transit Working Group identified three goals for the development of the RFP:

• Integration. The RFP should continue the process of integrating services into the seamless regional dial-a-ride system.

• Efficiency. The RFP should improve efficiency and reduce costs by combining RTA service contracts.

• Flexibility. The RFP should provide flexibility for expanding the network of providers and partnering coordinated rides with human service agencies in a brokerage program.

3

The Transit Working Group also discussed a number of major considerations regarding the scope of work and recommended the following:

• To improve efficiencies and reduce costs, there will be one provider in the ‘‘shared area’’ now served by both Sun Van, RTA Special Needs Transportation and Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride.

• To improve customer service, improve efficiencies and reduce costs, there will be one phone number for scheduling rides on Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride.

• To reduce costs and improve customer service, an electronic fare payment system will be implemented.

• To continue high quality services and efficiencies, the agreement with the Town of Oro Valley to provide Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride services in the Oro Valley area should continue beyond June 2013.

As a result of the above goals and recommendations, the RFP scope of work would combine the RTA Special Needs Transportation (Handicar) services and Sun Shuttle (MV Transportation) services. For the optional ADA service, the RFP would require that the service provider follow the regional dial-a-ride policies and Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride brand. The RFP would consolidate three customer call numbers, including Oro Valley, into one call number for scheduling all Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride services. The RFP would also provide an option for establishing a brokerage system, where dial-a-ride services could be purchased and sold from an expanded network of providers such as non-profit social service agencies. As a separate action, the RTA staff would work with the Town of Oro Valley to draft an IGA amendment to extend the Sun Shuttle Dial-a-Ride transit services beyond June 2013. It is anticipated that this amendment would be presented to the RTA Board for approval in January 2013. Recommendation: Staff recommends that the RTA TPC Committee approve the Transit Working Group recommendations for expanding the optional ADA service area in two phases and combining the RTA Special Needs Transportation services (Handicar) and Sun Shuttle (MV Transportation) services into the upcoming transit service procurement, and subsequently pass along these recommendations to the Management Committee and RTA Board for further consideration.

Transportation Planning Committee

Wednesday, September 5, 2012

Agenda Packet Memo

Subject: TIP Subcommittee Report

Background: The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), prepared by Pima Association of Governments (PAG), is a five-year schedule and budget of proposed transportation improvements within Pima County. The TIP is typically updated annually through a multi-step process in association with PAG’s member jurisdictions and other implementing agencies. The TIP addresses improvements to diverse elements of the regional transportation system including national, state and local highways, transit, aviation, ride sharing, bikeways and pedestrian facilities. The TIP also responds to various state and federal regulatory requirements for development of a transportation improvement program. Discussion Points: The PAG TIP Subcommittee Chair or a Subcommittee representative will be available to report on the August 21, 2012 PAG TIP Subcommittee meeting, including:

• TIP Amendment #1

Amendment #1 to the FY 2013-2017 TIP includes the following items: Item A: A request from the Town of Marana to transfer the project sponsor for the Ina Road Bridge from Marana to ADOT. Both jurisdictions are amenable to this transfer. No change in funding is necessary at this time. Item B: A request from the City of Tucson to combine three projects into a single project. Funding from the Liberty Ave Safe Routes to School project and the Liberty Bike Blvd Design project would be transferred to the Liberty Bike Blvd project and renamed ‘‘Liberty Bike Blvd and Safe Routes to School.’’


Item C: This item adds two new projects which have recently received a Safe Routes to School grant from ADOT. The Old Vail Middle School SRTS Project (sponsored by Pima County) and the Robison Elementary School Healthy Street project (sponsored by the City of Tucson) both received $400,000 from this grant source. Item D: A request from Tucson Transit to amend 15 transit projects to bring funding amounts in line with what is outlined in the respective project IGAs. There are also two new transit projects that are part of this item: Sun Tran Pima County Transit Services, and South Tucson Transit Services. Finally four projects have proposed name changes to more accurately reflect the project scope: Circulator Bus Service Name Change to: Sun Shuttle Base Transit

Services Paratransit System Expansion Name Change to: Transferred Special Needs

Transit Service Area Sun Shuttle / Ajo Transit Services

Name Change to: Sun Shuttle Expanded Transit Services

Van Tran / Paratransit Expansion

Name Change to: Sun Van / Paratransit Expansion

Item E: A request from ADOT to add $700,000 of 2.6% funding to the I-10: Prince to Ruthrauff project to cover unexpected expenses. Item F: A request from the City of Tucson to increase RTA funds on four projects: Fort Lowell / Campbell Intersection, Golf Links / Kolb Rd Intersection Improvements, Grant / Craycroft Intersection, and Speedway / Arcadia HAWK. Item G: A request from ADOT to move the I-10: Cortaro Rd to Ina Frontage Road into the reserve list, since the scope of this project is included in other fully-funded projects in that same area. In addition, ADOT requests additional 2.6% funding to two existing projects: State Route 77: Tangerine to Pinal County Line, and State Route 86: Valencia to Kinney. Item H: A request from PAG to correct an earlier error that had reduced funding levels for two programmatic line items (PAG Consultant Services, and Transportation Planning Program). Funding amount for these programs are normally $100,000 each, but had mistakenly been reduced to $80,000 each. The proposed changes will have no significant effect on the air quality conformity findings or fiscal constraint analysis of the TIP.


Recommendation: The Committee is asked for its recommendation on Amendment #1 Items A through H to the FY 2013-2017 TIP. Attachment: Amendment #1 to the FY 2013-2017 TIP.

Agenda Packet Memo

RTA Report

Report on the RTA Board: The RTA Board meets on Sept. 27, 2012. At that meeting the RTA Board will consider the following actions/presentations:

• Jurisdictional Project Updates

• Request for increased funding for SR-86

• Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Goals

• RTA Categorical Funding Reallocation

The RTA Board last met in Executive Session on Aug. 21, 2012. Prior to that meeting, the regular meeting was held on June 14th, at which time the following actions were taken:

• 13 Intergovernmental Agreements or amendments were approved

• The FY 2013 Budget was approved

• A HAWK signal was approved for La Cholla Blvd. at Ocelot Road

• The request to increase funding for the SR-77 Wildlife Crossing was referred back to the Wildlife Linkages Working Group

• A presentation was made on the RTA Project and Program Statutory Process by the RTA Legal Counsel

Jurisdictional Project Updates:

The RTA Jurisdictional Progress Reports are attached.

Request for increased funding for SR-86 Wildlife Crossings: The SR- 86 Wildlife Crossing Structures proposal was approved by the RTA Board in October 2011 and the IGA with ADOT was approved in April 2012. The original concept identified two under crossings, at an estimated cost of $746,280 to help restore wildlife connectivity in the Kitt Peak area, and reduce the accident rate due to wildlife collisions in the area. The project has been designed, and the current cost estimate is now $1,189,580, an increase of $433,300, an increase of over 58%. The increase is due, in part to the cost of detours that had

2

not been addressed in the original cost estimate. Other costs increases are due to increased structure costs, as quoted by the manufacturer. Recommendation / Action Item: The RTA Wildlife Linkage Committee is requesting an amendment to the current IGA to do the following:

1. Increase the amount of RTA funding from $746,280 to $899,600, with ADOT committing to fund the remaining shortfall.

2. Cancel the SR 86, Kinney to T.O. Nation Wildlife study, releasing $79,000 programmed for the study, but not pursued by ADOT.

Small Business Enterprise (SBE) Goals

The RTA Board tabled a proposed limitation on SBE goals at the Jan. 26th meeting in order to allow staff from the City to work with the RTA staff, and representatives of the contractors and subcontractors associations on process changes within the framework of the existing City SBE Ordinance that would result in SBE goals all parties could support. The RTA Board agreed to support SBE goals for short term projects that had consensus support from the involved parties. Since January, the team has modified the way SBE Goals have been set, and have established a review process that involves the RTA, Subcontractors Associations and the Tucson Utility Contractors Association. SBE Goals have been established for the following projects, by consensus: 22nd /Kino Intersection: 19% Grant Road/Oracle Intersection: 14% St Marys (Downtown Links) 18% Houghton Road, Irvington-Valencia 19% The RTA-SBE Goal Setting Procedures summary is attached. Staff anticipates recommending the continuation of the committee review of SBE Goals on future RTA projects. Request for Categorical Funding Change RTA Staff has worked with the Jurisdictions to identify funding that could be released on projects that are now completed, and to make the released funding available to be reallocated. The jurisdictions have indentified approximately $3,300,000 of Intersection Safety and Capacity (RTA #36) project funding, $900,000 of Elderly and Pedestrian Safety Improvement Funding (RTA #37), $225,000 of Signal Technology Upgrade Funding (RTA #40) and $2,700,000 of Greenway, Pathways, Bikeways and Sidewalks funding (RTA #41) that can be released from completed projects and made available for reprogramming. A call for projects has announced for the amounts above, subject to RTA Board approval.

Agenda Packet Memo Road Maintenance in the PAG Region Background:

While PAG owns no roadway infrastructure of its own, the agency coordinates a regional pavement management program. This role has included ensuring compatibility of pavement management databases and information collection techniques among PAG member agencies. This program has shown a proactive approach to coordinating regional pavement data collection among its member agencies. However, individual jurisdiction investment in pavement maintenance throughout the region has varied widely. Discussion Points: PAG has prepared a paper to address the current state of road maintenance in the region, with emphasis on effective strategies for preventative maintenance and funding availability. The paper describes current pavement management activities in the region, the general condition of public streets, and proposes recommendations for a regional approach to preventative maintenance for pavement. A presentation on the paper will be provided. Recommendation: The Committee is asked to review and discuss the item and its next steps.

The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) is the new transportation funding bill that will govern United States federal surface transportation spending for the next two years. It was passed by Congress on June 29, 2012, and signed by the president on July 6.

Discussion Points:

The bill provides for the use of $105 billion through the end of the 2014 fiscal year, and does not significantly alter total transportation funding from the previous transportation bill. It does, however, include many significant reforms and changes from the previous funding bill, SAFETEA-LU.

Some of these differences include:

• a reduction in the total number of funding programs

• reforms aimed at making the environmental review process more streamlined

• consolidation of bicycle and pedestrian transportation funding into a single program called Transportation Alternatives

• the development of a national freight policy. Specific impacts to the PAG region are still being evaluated. PAG staff will present on possible MAP-21 impacts to the region. Recommendation: This is a discussion item only.

SUMMARY OF REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION STUDIES

Background:

PAG provides quarterly updates to the Transportation Planning Committee on

transportation related studies being conducted in the region. The update will include a

brief summary of the study and its goals, as well as a brief description of the project status.

If you know of any current studies that are not listed here, and that may be of interest on a

regional level, please let us know and we will include the study in the next update.

Discussion and Recommendation:

This is an information item.

ADOT Statewide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan:

Summary:

The Arizona Statewide Bicycle and Pedestrian Plan serves to provide a long-term plan for a

system of shared roadways and bicycle and pedestrian facilities for the ADOT State

Highway System. The Plan will guide ADOT in making transportation decisions, which

impact bicycling and pedestrian activities, and improve the accommodation of non-

motorized modes of transportation throughout the state. In addition, the Plan will

recommend policies, design, and maintenance guidelines for consideration by all

implementing agencies in Arizona.

Status:

TAC meeting #2 was held in early April to finalize the goals of the study and discuss needs

and deficiencies of the statewide system and programs. The consultants are currently

compiling the current conditions. The next major component of the study will be public

outreach. There will be an online survey that can be completed by anyone during the

month of May to gather input on bicycle and pedestrian issues statewide. The next

working paper will contain recommendations on activities that will help achieve the vision

and goals identified in as part of the plan update.

Freight Framework Study:

Summary:

The freight framework study is a joint effort between MAG, CAAG, and PAG. The study will

identify current trends in freight transportation in the Sun Corridor, and recommend ways

to improve freight transportation capacity and efficiency throughout the mega-region

between Phoenix and Tucson. MAG is lead agency on this project.

Status:

The Study has identified 15 freight ‘‘hot spots,’’ defined as areas with current or future

potential for heavy freight use. Of the 15 hot spots, the study team has chosen 4 for

further analysis and including transportation infrastructure, land use, commodity flows,

market analysis, and so forth. This deeper analysis will include the area around Tucson

International Airport.

ADOT Route Transfer Procedures Study

Summary:

The Arizona State Highway System includes a number of routes that do not function as

State Highways. ADOT has indicated that state highways that do not contribute to the

mission and purpose of the system create problems for ADOT and for transportation in

Arizona because they use resources that could be used to meet statewide needs, generate

administrative and liability costs, and may interfere with the vision and goals of local

jurisdictions.

The overall goal of the project is to develop a process that identifies eligible routes for

transfer from the State highway system to a local jurisdiction. The study will also develop

a process for identifying the jurisdiction responsible for specific improvements prior to

route transfer and on-going maintenance after the transfer. Finally, the study will

recommend policies that will clarify how ADOT and the State Transportation Board will

deal with key issues in route transfers.

Status:

A draft manual has been completed and has been reviewed by stake holders (including

PAG). The manual includes consideration of transfers in both directions------from state to

local jurisdiction, and from local to state jurisdiction. The manual is being presented to

each of the ADOT Engineering Districts in the state. The project is scheduled to be

complete by mid-September.

Pedestrian Compatibility Study: SR86 from MP112 to MP115 (Sells):

Summary:

This study will examine SR 86 through the Town of Sells with the goal of improving overall

pedestrian safety. The study will analyze the best location to place bridges over a

drainage channel, appropriate crossing treatments and the need and feasibility of

sidewalks or a shared-use path along the roadway.

Status:

The final draft of this study was available to the TAC members with some TAC members

expressing concerns with the final product. The consultant team is setting up a meeting to

discuss the final draft.

North-South Corridor Study (Pinal County)

Summary:

The Arizona Department of Transportation and Federal Highway Administration are

studying the area between US 60 in Apache Junction and I-10 near Eloy and Marana. The

purpose of the study is to identify and evaluate a possible route to provide a connection

between these two areas.

This study has elicited significant interest from the public and other stakeholders.

Approximately 55,000 post cards were sent out and over 400 responses have been

received.

Currently there are several alignments being considered. The goal is to narrow it down to

three or four options. There is also communication taking between the FTA and FRA and

the ADOT Intercity Rail Study.

Status:

The last team meeting for the project was held March 6, 2012. Currently, the team is

working on consensus on which route alternatives to move forward with for the EIS.

Seventeen impact criteria have been established for choosing the route alternatives.

Those with the lowest ratings based on the established criteria will be eliminated from

consideration.

The corridor will be split into 6 zones for consideration in to the EIS:

a. Zone 1: US 60 to Ocotillo Road

b. Zone 2: Ocotillo Road to Arizona Farms Road

c. Zone 3: Arizona Farms Road to SR 287

d. Zone 4: SR 287 to Martin Road

e. Zone 5: Martin Road to Florence Boulevard

f. Zone 6: Florence Boulevard to I-10

The study team plans to finalize the Alternative Selection Process at the April meeting. The

April meeting was subsequently canceled.

I-10: Junction I-19 to SR 83 and

SR 210: Golf Links Road to I-10

Summary:

Improving mobility along I-10 southeast of downtown Tucson has been a major goal of

ADOT, the City of Tucson, Pima County and PAG. This project consists of two phases; the

first phase will examine many alternatives, study each one closely, and identify those

which will be carried forward into the next phase. Phase two will advance the study to the

DCR and EA stages focusing on I-10 from I-19 to SR 83, an area expected to become more

urbanized in the future.

Status:

A meeting with project partners and DM Air Force Base was held on March 14, 2012. DM

Air Force Base presented several concerns regarding security concerns and the clearances

required for their airfield on the proposed System Alternatives in the initial report by the

consulting team. Several potential solutions were discussed with DM Air Force Base

Engineers. The project team will consider the issues brought forward by the DM Air Force

Base and work on the alignments on the System Alternatives that minimally impact

DMAFB. At the next stages of the project, the DCR, further analysis of the envelope

required by DMAFB will be provided along with more detailed maps of System

Alternatives.

Status:

The final DCR and EA report is complete and available on the ADOT website.

I-10: Tangerine Road to Ina Road corridor study

Summary:


beginning an engineering and environmental study of Interstate 10 between Tangerine

Road and Ina Road. The goal for this study is to develop a long-range plan for providing an

improved roadway for general traffic, commuters and truck traffic traveling along this

portion of the I-10 corridor. To support that goal, the study will:

• Develop and evaluate possible alternatives for widening I-10.

• Develop and evaluate possible alternatives for reconstructing the Cortaro Road

and Avra Valley Road interchanges to provide grade-separated crossings with the

Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR).

• Look at potential improvements to frontage roads in the study area.

The study will include:

• An Alternative Selection Report (ASR) to identify and assess possible alternatives,

including the consequences of not making any improvements along this corridor

(no-build alternative).

• A Design Concept Report (DCR) to document the preferred alternative.

• An Environmental Assessment (EA) to document public and agency outreach and

the potential impacts to the social, economic and natural environments.

• A Corridor Implementation Plan for recommended improvements.

Status:

A public meeting will be held on May 2, 2012 to introduce the study alternatives, present

information, and provide the opportunity for the public to ask questions and provide

input.

SR 77: Tangerine to Pinal County Line (Oro Valley)

Summary:

ADOT, the Federal Highway Administration and the Regional Transportation Authority are

working together to improve traffic flow and enhance safety along State Route 77, also

known as Oracle Road. This study is evaluating improvements, including widening the

road from two lanes to three lanes in each direction, on Oracle Road between Tangerine

Road and the Pinal County Line.

These new improvements will tie into the recently completed improvements on Oracle

Road between Calle Concordia and Tangerine Road. The current phase for this project

began in 2004, and public meetings were held on June 28, 2005, and January 27, 2009.

Input from these meetings and other contacts were used in the development of the

design concept report and environmental assessment documents.

Status:

The project has commenced Stage IV design.

The issue of constructing a noise wall was voted on by residents being affected. In January

2012, voting was closed after a reasonable attempt to gather votes from all resident

abutting the noise wall. The vote was to construct a noise barrier wall with the project

along the stretch where homes will be affected. A meeting was held April 18, 2012 to

review sound wall plans and preview renderings.

A team progress meeting was held on April 2, 2012. Cultural clearances are still under

review.

On April 10, 2012 an amendment to increase funding for the Wildlife Crossings by $3.005

was recommended for approval. This item will be covered by the TIP Subcommittee report

to the TPC.

This project is scheduled to start construction in mid calendar year 2013. The draft STIP

moved construction on this project to FY 2014. This action should only cause a month or

delay for the project.

Sahuarita Corridor Study

Summary:

The Sahuarita Corridor study will examine possible east-west corridor alignments in

Sahuarita, including El Toro Road, from Mission Road to SR 89. The study is the direct

result of a 2010 Small Area Transportation Study conducted by Kimley-Horn on behalf of

the Town of Sahuarita. .

The result of the new Study will set the stage for a future preliminary design of an east-

west corridor, and will assist in justifying funding for additional corridor planning and

engineering. Additionally, the Study will enable the Town to initiate other planning

assessments for the region, including the preservation of right of way, a critical factor to

the preferred alternative.

Status:

The project team is currently evaluating possible corridor alternatives

and developing performance measures to compare the various

alternatives.

University of Arizona Bicycle and Pedestrian Study

Summary:

In partnership with UA, Pima County, and the City of Tucson, PAG has contracted with a

consultant to produce a comprehensive study to enhance bicycle and pedestrian

circulation within the U of A campus, while creating seamless links with the surrounding

community.

The goals of the study are to reduce the risk of collision, improve existing infrastructure,

develop design standards, increase bicycle and pedestrian mode shares, increase bicycle

and pedestrian safety, and to create an implementable plan.

Status:

Tech Memo #2 was distributed to the TAC which includes preliminary recommendations

based on the public input that was provided in January. The consultant is responding to

feedback from the TAC members and is drafting a final report which will include an

implementation plan. The final draft will be available in early June and Alta Planning will

be in town June 12-14th to do presentations. There will be a public workshop on June 14th

from 6-7:30 p.m. at the UA Swede Johnson Building,

ADOT Statewide Bicycle Economic Impact Study

Summary:

According to the U.S. Department of Transportation, between 1999 and 2010 the Federal

Highway Administration invested nearly $132 million in Arizona for ‘‘stand-alone’’ bicycle-

and pedestrian-specific facilities (not including facilities constructed as part of a larger

road project such as paved shoulders or bicycle buffers at intersections). This funding has

served to improve the safety and convenience of bicycling for Arizona residents, as well as

attract non-resident bicycle tourists.

The League of American Bicyclists has ranked Arizona number 16 in the nation for

bicycling in 2011 and Arizona is one of only ten states designated by the League as a

‘‘Bicycle Friendly State.’’ They note that ‘‘Arizona plays host to many great recreational and

encouragement events. El Tour de Tucson and the Great Arizona Bicycle Adventure, a

multi-day ride that starts in Northern Arizona and terminates at the Mexico border are

must-do events for cycling enthusiasts from around the world.’’ Arizona is home to eight

of the League’s ‘‘Bicycle Friendly Communities’’ including Chandler, Flagstaff, Gilbert,

Mesa, Sedona, Scottsdale, Tempe, and Tucson & East Pima Region.

The study will divide the impact by counties; therefore, we will have a good understanding

of the impact in Pima County. This will complement an existing study the UA Eller College

has been working on.

Status:

The state has also kicked off another major effort related to bicycling. The study aims to

quantify the economic impact bicycling activity brings to Arizona. After a competitive

process, the consultant team consisting of McClure Consulting LLC, Kimley-Horn and

Associates, Inc. and Economic & Policy Resources, Inc. were selected to develop the study.

This is an objective study with a defensible methodology and approach. The study will

look at two main elements: A. The bicycle industry (manufacturing, sales, and service) as

measured by revenue and employment, and B. Bicycle tourism and visitor spending

associated with events that include organized tours, races, and charity rides. The timeline

for the study indicates it will be finished in February 2013.

Passenger Rail Study

Summary:

The Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) Passenger Rail Corridor Study is

continuing study of high capacity regional transportation to move passengers between

the Cities of Phoenix and Tucson. This study builds on previous work performed by ADOT

and other agencies. Because federal funds are being used to fund the work program, and

federal funds will likely be sought to help implement a preferred alternative, an

environmental document is being prepared to satisfy requirements of the National

Environmental Policy Act (NEPA).

The Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA) are

providing funds for this study. The agencies are designated as co-federal lead agencies for

the study process. NEPA contains certain requirements that all federal agencies must

follow. This project is designed to meet both FRA and FTA requirements to recommend a

preferred alternative for a fixed guideway project to improve the intercity connectivity and

the commuter mobility within urban areas in the same study area.

Status:

Currently, the study has completed project scoping and is now in the initial screening

process to identify the project corridor, stations and type of service

Arizona-Sonora Border Master Plan

Summary:


working collaboratively with the State of Sonora, Mexico, the Secretaria de Relaciones

Exteriores, the Secretaria de Comunicaciones y Transportes and several other local, state

and federal agencies to develop an Arizona-Sonora Border Master Plan (BMP).

The need for an integrated transportation master plan to improve the efficiency and

effectiveness of cross-border traffic prompted the need for this BMP. Arizona has a total of

six Ports of Entry (POE) along its border with Mexico. In 2010, more than 23 million people

were processed through these border crossings. At each POE, heavy congestion and

security issues affect daily pedestrian, commercial and vehicular traffic traveling across the

border.

Upon completion, the BMP will include a prioritized list of recommended Arizona-Sonora

border related infrastructure projects and document their readiness for funding and

implementation. The BMP study area extends along the entire Arizona-Sonora border,

which incorporates a wide range of international jurisdictions, including federal, tribal,

state, county and city governments on both sides of the border.

Status:

The first two working papers have been completed. Working paper #1

describes current conditions of transportation infrastructure and studies

within the study area. Working paper #2 describes the current

conditions of Arizona’s Land Ports of Entry (LPOEs).

Currently, the project team is developing criteria for ranking and

prioritizing projects within the focus area (an area between 10 and 25 on

either side of the international border).
