Congestion and Urban Mobility – Targeted Programs

Two targeted funding programs will focus on heavily congested areas and key trade corridors. Texas Clear Lanes (strategic congestion initiative) – More than $5 billion in additional

funding allocated through Category 12 – Strategic Priorities to target congestion and optimize system performance within the state’s most congested areas. – Projects prioritized and selected based on project recommendation criteria

consistent with HB 20. – Target TxDOT districts that include: o Urban area of over 1.5 million population o Average commuter delay of at least 40 hours per year (TTI Urban Mobility Report); o At least 10 segments identified on Top 100 Most Congested Roadways in Texas.

22


Congestion and Urban Mobility - Targeted Programs (continued)

Connectivity Corridor Congestion (3C) – $5 billion in additional funding allocated through Category 4 – Connectivity for prioritized and performance based needs on interstates and major freight/trade corridors. Projects to be prioritized and selected based on project recommendation criteria

consistent with HB 20.

At least 80% of funds are expected to be directed to urban districts with: ― At least 3 segments identified in a single year over past 3 years on Top 100 Most

Congested Roadways listing; or ― Single metropolitan planning area with population greater than 1 million based on

latest Texas State Data Center estimate.

Remaining funds may be directed to 3C priorities in urban areas statewide.

23


Congestion and Urban Mobility - Federal Programs

Congestion Mitigation & Air Quality (Category 5) – $2.2 billion distributed to 3 non-attainment metropolitan areas (Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston, and El Paso). Each project is evaluated to quantify its air quality improvement benefits to address attainment of National Ambient Air Quality Standards.

Metropolitan Mobility and Rehabilitation (Category 7) - $4.2 billion distributed to MPOs with an urbanized area population of 200,000 or greater (Transportation Management Areas). Projects are selected and ranked by MPOs in consultation with TxDOT.

24


Congestion and Urban Mobility ($28.9 Billion – Total UTP Funding)

Total UTP “Congestion Relief Initiative” funding = $28.9 billion over 10 years. Initiative includes funding from:

Regional Connectivity

Lauren D. Garduño, P.E.

26


Regional Connectivity Corridors ($6.6 billion – Total UTP Funding)

A total of $6.2 billion of additional funding allocated through Category 4 - Connectivity to rural areas of the state to address regional connectivity, safety, and facilitate the movement of freight and international trade to foster economic growth. Preliminary regional connectivity corridor priorities: ― I-10 - Various segments from Beaumont to San Antonio ― I-20/I-30 - Various segments from Dallas to Louisiana/Arkansas lines ― I-35 - Various segments statewide ― I-45 - Various segments from Houston to Dallas ― I-69 - Various segments statewide ― Other statewide interstate and Texas Trunk System/Freight Network corridors

(includes additional interstate and U.S./State Highways segments, key border trade corridors, and hurricane evacuation and port routes)

― Statewide Super 2 corridors

27


Regional Connectivity Corridors

28

Regional connectivity initiative funding targets connectivity corridors in rural areas of the state.

Candidate corridors reviewed with statewide planning organizations:

TxDOT Districts MPOs


Criteria for Ranking Priority Corridors

The following criteria are proposed for consideration to rank corridors for receipt of regional connectivity initiative funding: Enhance existing Interstate network

Complete proposed future interstate network

Complete existing Texas Trunk System network

Expand Texas Trunk System/Freight Network

On a hurricane evacuation route

Align with energy sector and safety priorities

29


Texas Super 2 Corridors

30

Historical limitations on funding in Category 4 – Connectivity have resulted in the development of a Super 2 Corridor Plan.

Super 2 lanes have been used throughout the state to address connectivity and safety needs on the existing infrastructure network.
