Previous TIP Programming Methods

 Four big players (Albuquerque, NMDOT, Bernalillo County, and Rio Rancho)  “Programming around a table”  Federal funds spread out among council districts  Agencies “bank-rolled” federal funds

Need for Changes

 Many small projects funded which were not regionally significant or targeting critical locations  Only 40%-55% of available federal funds were being

  • bligated each FY

 Many projects “rolled-over” to the next FY  Summary: need to create more competitive process

Need for Changes

 Metropolitan area boundary expansion

▪ One large UZA and one small UZA

 New transit services

▪ Commuter rail (NM Rail Runner Express) ▪ New Regional Transit District

 Growth projections created a sense of urgency  “river crossing issue”

2035 MTP Summary Stats

 Population: 800,000 to 1,550,000 (75%)  Daily miles traveled: 16 to 31 million (94%)  Daily hours traveled: 0.4 to 1.5 million (275%)  Average network speed: 40 mph to 21 mph  Daily trips across the river more than double to reach 1 million by 2035!

MPO Policy Measures

 Respond to challenges and allocate resources in beneficial manner  Rethink strategies  “Can’t build our way out

  • f congestion”

 Move people rather than move traffic

 Create incentives through TIP  Project Prioritization Process  Transit mode share goals  Funding set-aside

slide-13
SLIDE 13

Mid-Region Council of Governments

Project Prioritization Process

 Improve decision-making in programming of discretionary funds for Transportation Improvement Program ($25 million per year)  Objective, quantitative method for evaluating proposed projects  Compare projects to each other  Transparent process with easy-to- understand guidebooks  Modified based on geography

slide-14
SLIDE 14

Mid-Region Council of Governments

Project Prioritization Process

 13 evaluation criteria linked to goals and objectives

  • f 2035 MTP:

 Congestion levels, crash rates  Air quality impacts  Residential & employment density  Multi-modalism – transit connections, bike/ped infrastructure  Project strategies

 Balance of qualitative and quantitative criteria  Mode-specific criteria

Mid-Region Council of Governments

Future Role of Transit in Albuquerque Area

 2035 MTP Mode Share Goals

 10% of river-crossing trips by 2025  20% of river-crossing trips by 2035

 Transit “set-aside”

 Established by policy board  25% of federal discretionary funds  $6 million per year

Effectiveness

Funding for transit jumped from 10% of TIP funds to 30%

Paseo del Norte High Capacity Transit Study

 Address river crossing congestion and provide competitive alternative to single-occupancy vehicle travel  Connect northwest metro area with Journal Center and UNM  $20 million allocated from 2016-19  Improvements to be phased in as funds become available  Major consideration: operations!
