2035 RTP Update: Financial Constraints and Project Priorities

The 2035 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) Update is essential due to findings by FHWA that our state did not meet "Fiscal Constraint." This update addresses the need for revised STIP/RTPs, reflecting current cost estimates and ensuring available revenues for implementation. The work scope includes demographic considerations, new financial constraints, and conformity determinations. Input from the public and agencies is crucial for outlining project priorities, costs, and enhanced revenue strategies. Participation in the survey at www.2035Plan.org is encouraged.

  1. 2035 RTP UPDATE August 2010

  2. Why Update the RTP? • 2007 - FHWA found State did not meet “Fiscal Constraint” • 2008 - Required revised STIP/RTPs based on YOE Costs • “Froze” 2008-11 STIP • Precipitated new short & long term TxDOT financial forecast • New forecasts significantly lower

  3. What is “Fiscal Constraint” ? Plan considered fiscally constrained if: • Can be implemented with “reasonably available” revenues • Reflects current/updated cost estimatesfor capital projects • Indicates sufficient funding to operate and maintainthe Federal-aid system and Public Transportation

  4. How TxDOT $$ Impact RTP • New 2011-14 TIP, 2015-2020 TxDOT project lists already approved by TPC • Must determine “reasonably available” revenue, project priorities • Projects removed from RTP cannot: • Receive federal environmental clearance • Permit State right of way acquisition • Be part of Air Quality Conformity finding

  5. Work Scope for RTP Update • Same horizon year • Same demographics • New financial constraint • New conformity determination • Revised list of proposed added capacity highway projects
