  1. Regional Transportation Plan First Draft Hybrid Scenario

  2. Valley Metro Comments • The Regional Transit Study Documented large unmet transit needs. • Modeling may understate ridership for LRT due to coding. • Scenario C is aggressive – reducing the network will improve performance. • Need to include supporting infrastructure in coding (park & ride, local bus, etc.)

  3. ADOT Comments • Construct South Mtn as soon as possible. • Construct L303 as an ultimate freeway, with interim roadway in the near term. • ROW preservation and interim construction of L303 to Riggs Rd. • Support I-10 Reliever and Williams Gateway Parkway with consideration for staging with full ROW preservation. • Support L303: New River spur for staged construction with full ROW preservation.

  4. ADOT Comments (cont’d) • Major reconstruction to SR51 from I-10 to Glendale required if adding capacity. • Funding for I-17 from I-10 to Dunlap inadequate. • Funding for SR 74 access control and widening to 4-lane divided. • Support regional bus, express and LRT funding at about $4.0 billion. • Support arterial funding for regional connectivity. • Fund Grand Avenue from the Arterial Streets category.

  5. ADOT Comments (cont’d) • Support Q of L projects such as “quiet” pavements, noise walls and landscaping. • Need to address additional maintenance funding. • Focus sales tax on expansion of the regional system and new corridors. Focus ADOT funding on other freeways/highways.

  6. Maricopa County Comments • Only fund capital from ½ cent tax • Encourage innovative approaches such as tolled HOT / HOV lanes • East-West mobility needs from L101 to L303 • Extend SR 74 to connect to proposed Canamex • Consider 5 cent gas tax increase and index to inflation for maintenance

  7. Maricopa County Comments (continued) • Fund specific arterial improvements and only on the County’s Primary System • No sales tax for arterial maintenance • Fund BRT and express bus capital, no O&M • No LRT funding • Other regional programs funded 50/50.

  8. Funding by Source and Mode Insert Allocation Concept Here, Part I

  9. Insert Allocation Concept Here, Part II

  10. Guidance for Hybrid Changes • Fiscally balance the plan. • Reflect different needs in sub-regions. • Focus on regionally significant projects. • Incorporate local match for regional bus O&M. • Refine revenues and costs

  11. Freeway / Highway Changes • Lanes configuration and costs for widening confirmed with ADOT. • Grand Ave increased by $20 mil. • Total investment = $231 million • I-10 Reliever moved to interim

  12. I-17 Investments • I-10 (east) to I-10 (west)$ 30 mil • I-10 (west) to L101 $557 mil • L101 to New River $282 mil Total Investment $869 mil

  13. I-10 Investments • I-10 West $ 336 mil • I-10 Central $ 500 mil • I-10 East (south) $ 138 mil Total Investment $ 974 mil

  14. Freeway/Highway Comments • More funding for I-17 • SR 51 improvements needed • SR 74 – access control and widening • Funding for neighborhood mitigation: • Walls • Rubberized asphalt on balance of system • Show routes for future development. • Look at I-10 Reliever options.

  15. I-10 Reliever Corridor Planning cost estimates based on L303 Corridor Study: MC 85 to Riggs Rd., June 11, 2003

  16. Arterial Street Changes • Costs checked and updated • Additions: • L101 Frontage Roads: Princess Dr. to Scottsdale Rd: $25 mil. • 15 Intersection improvements to improve regional traffic flow in Chandler and Gilbert. • Deletions: • 99th ave connector ($30 mil) • Sun Valley Extension to Grand Ave. ($130 mil) • Jomax Rd: L303 to Sun Valley Extension ($228 mil) • Riggs Rd: Gilbert Rd to Meridian. ($54 mil)

  17. Next Steps • Refine the fiscally balanced hybrid plan. • Present revised plan at July 16th TPC workshop. • Possible TPC acceptance of the revised hybrid to submit to agencies and public for comments. • Modeling of hybrid. • Plan refinements based on modeling and comments. • September adoption for AQ conformity
