[1] HTA developed a long-term, steady-state CIP for its highway infrastructure it believes it needs to keep the highway system in a state of good repair and critical to HTA receiving full federal funds. To develop these funding levels, HTA used available data on asset condition, lifecycle, and historical costs. Following its initial analysis, HTA hired an outside engineering consultant to conduct a validation the CIP. After integrating the results of the external study, PRHTA estimates a steady-state CIP of $261.8M per year.

HTA’s estimated steady state CIP is $261.8M in hard costs per year [1]

5 * Includes both construction and soft costs and does NOT include CIP for Transit Asset

130 86 33 13 Bridges Safety Pavement Traffic signalling

Current Average Allocation for Pavement = $45MM per year

• Only in the next 5

years, it is expected a disbursement projection totaling $1,684MM on regular projects (Mostly in reconstruction activities)

• From ER program,

additional disbursements in the

• rder of $700MM are

anticipated in the same period of time.

 Recent experience in construction cost increases:

• In May 23, 2018, based on limited information, FHWA

projects were estimated to increase from $146.5 M to $184 M (26% increase)

• After having awarding about half the bids, the

estimated increase is from$146.5 M to $214 M (46% increase)

• This increase is mostly attributable to hurricane Maria

market effect

 Innovation in Project Delivery – Use of Abbreviated PS&Es, Georeferenced videos for roadway condition assessments.  Quality Assurance Program (Design)  Design Build SOPs for Small Projects – Future consultation to Transportation Innovative Council – TIC)  Update of Design Manual, Standard Specs and Standard Drawings  Strategic Highway Safety Plan  Transportation Asset Management Plan

10

• FHWA MOU (Financial, Billing, Electronic Bidding process)
• Strengthening In-house offices with external resources (i.e.,

Procurement, Environmental, Design)

• Outsourcing O&M of Toll Roads
• Use of local funds for Pre-construction efforts, while

maximizing FHWA funds to cover construction costs

• Improving Cash Flow of Contractors/Suppliers
• Project bundling to attract contractors from other jurisdictions
• Strategic Partners

• f

highly deteriorated pavements using higher standards and quality control.

 Divided in 4 phases:

17

Phase Funding Priorities I $80,000,000 Priorities to Toll roads and primary system. About 30%

• f projects in Secondary and Tertiary System. Engaging

mostly Asphalt Pavement II $80,000,000 Higher priority to Secondary and Tertiary system. Will Consider concrete pavement, pavement marking, and retroreflective pavement markers III $80,000,000 TBD – Based on current conditions and lessons learned IV $87,000,000 TBD – Based on current conditions and lessons learned

 Damage assessment using georeferenced video. Repair work is

defined in Task Orders. Adjustments can be made during construction, based on contracted unit prices.

 Training to Contractor and Inspector on contract specs.  Use of PRHTA’s standard specifications for asphalt mix (use of

warm mix)

 Set of standard details for cold milling  Material testing program (lab and field)  Field Inspections

 PRHTA will be procuring $75MM (Phase II of High Quality

Pavement Repair - HQPR)

 $5MM will be used for program/project management, data

gathering, design, construction management and inspection services.

 PRIFA will assist PRHTA in procuring Phase II of HQPR  Second Phase will include:

• Pothole Repair Contracts
• WTBP Contracts – including Potholes, Strips and Sections
• Sections Repair Contracts
• Pavement Marking Contracts
• Concrete Slab Replacement Contracts

PEMOC and FHWA Reconstruction Program

 Programa Estatal de Modernización de Carreteras (PEMOC)

• Main objective is the reconstruction of secondary and tertiary roadway

system.

• Work includes cold milling, resurfacing, drainage improvements, safety

devices, minor retaining walls, pavement marking and signing.

• 11 contracts islandwide with an investment of $75MM

 FHWA Reconstruction Program

• Highway Safety Improvements and Pavement Reconstruction
• 75% or more of funding is allocated for National Highway System (NHS)
• Closely coordinated with Transportation Asset Management Plan

(TAMP).

• Includes bridge preservation, reconstruction and replacement

 Highest investment in highway reconstruction in

recent years

 Future investment in pavement rehab projects to

reach $130MM annually.

 80% of Reconstruction Costs are pavement rehab
