McCarty Street Jefferson City, MO 65101 •..ti_.y-_" =�fw`�=- `"- � Dear Janice, The attached letter represents the view of a united coalition of organizations representing millions of Missourians who use our state's transportation system to walk, run, hike, and bicycle. We have sent this letter to MoDOT leadership, Missouri State Legislators, Missouri members of Congress, and Governor Nixon, asking them to carefully consider the needs of Missourians who walk and bicycle as they address Missouri's transportation funding shortfall, the current federal transportation reauthorization, and fill vacancies in MoDOT's leadership. We know that the work you do at the local and regional level in setting transportation priorities and meeting transportation needs is very important in helping to create a complete and accessible pedestrian and bicycle system across Missouri. We ask that you do what you can at the local level and support our work at the statewide and national levels to: • Make access, connectivity, safety, and funding for people who choose to bicycle and walk an integral part of Missouri's transportation system and your local transportation network. • Bring groups who represent the Missourians who walk and bicycle to the table and include us in the discussion about transportation priorities and needs in your area. • Continue moving forward vigorously to create, refine, and implement your own local goals for improving access and safety for people who walk and bicycle, and to implement MoDOT's stated goal to give Missourians better transportation choices by expanding and improving bicycle and pedestrian options throughout the state. • Please share this letter and the attached letter with your Board Chair and Chair of your transportation advisory committee. On behalf of the signatories of the attached letter, Rachel Ruhlen President m i s s PEDESurH TRIAN PEDESTRIAN Missouri Bicycle & Pedestrian Federation FEDERATION Agenda Item 5C 27 July 2015 Roberta Broeker, Director MoDOT 105 W. Capitol Avenue Jefferson City, MO 65102 Dear Roberta, We are a united coalition of organizations representing millions of Missourians who use our state's transportation system to walk, run, hike, and bicycle. Missouri's transportation funding shortfall is a critical challenge in need of a solution. As solutions are considered and developed, we want policymakers to recognize walking and bicycling are an important part of Missouri's transportation system. Walking and bicycling should be included in any transportation funding solution. • Walking and bicycling bring quantifiable economic benefits to Missouri. Recent research shows that bicycling and walking brings over$2.8 billion in consumer direct spend to Missouri's economy, supports over 28,000 jobs, and brings $219 million in local and state tax revenue to the state. • Attention to creating and maintaining safe and pleasant walking and bicycling environments makes our communities better able to compete for business development and human resources on a national and global scale. • Cities and states around us are prioritizing safe connected access for the millions who regularly walk and bicycle. They are better positioned to attract businesses and individuals who value active living and a range of transportation. • Including safe spaces to walk and bicycle on existing corridors through our cities and towns is one of the most cost-effective transportation investments that can be made and adds incredible value to these existing transportation corridors. • Providing safe, connected places to walk and bicycle for people of all abilities creates opportunity and freedom of choice in transportation—opportunity for Missourians of all ages, levels of ability, and income levels to reach work, school, health care, shopping, and recreation using the form of transportation 43 Organizations to MoDOT Leaders,page 2 they choose. • Missouri does not need extensive new or greatly expanded roads or highways. But Missouri does need to: o Maintain the road and highway system we have o Improve safety for all users of the road system o Add transportation choices—such as walking and bicycling—that far too often are simply not available to Missouri residents. These goals were identified and received broad mainstream support throughout the very comprehensive statewide public outreach effort undertaken by MoDOT during its Missouri On The Move public outreach effort. • The lack of safe, accessible places to walk and bicycle in Missouri communities is serious. A recent Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services survey showed that: o 45.6% of Missourians have no sidewalks at all in their neighborhoods o 76.5% of Missourians have no safe place to bicycle in their community As you are working to address Missouri's transportation funding problem, we ask you to: • Make access, connectivity, safety, and funding for people who choose to bicycle and walk an integral part of any solution to Missouri's transportation funding problem. Funding for roads and streets must include funding for safe, connected access for people of all abilities who choose to or need to walk and bicycle along and across those roads and streets. • Bring groups who represent the Missourians who walk and bicycle to the table and include us in the discussion. We want to contribute to proposed solutions to the Missouri's transportation funding problem. • Continue moving forward vigorously with MoDOT's stated goal to give Missourians better transportation choices by expanding and improving bicycle and pedestrian options for people of levels of ability and disability throughout 43 Organizations to MoDOT Leaders, page 3 the state. Thank you for considering this important issue. Sincerely, s — t.

The Bicycle Friendly Community program is a roadmap that has helped cities and counties throughout the country make improvements that get more people riding bikes. Last year I was hired as the League's new Bicycle Friendly Community Specialist,because of the overwhelming interest and request for assistance from cities and towns nationwide.Thanks to the support of Trek,and Trek dealers,the BFC team will be able to personally visit and provide assistance to 100 communities per year. We know the BFC program works: Between 2000 and 2013 the percentage increase of people commuting by bike was more than three times the growth in cities that have received BFC designation than those that have not. These visits will allow us to help you improve bicycling in your area by experiencing first-hand the bicycle infrastructure in your community,bringing together citizens and public agency staff to discuss issues and strategies for improvements,providing an assessment of current conditions and beginning to collaborate on short,medium and long-term solutions. Specifically,here's what a visit to your community will include: • Hands-on technical assessment of your city's bicycling infrastructure(via a group bicycle ride/audit)and review of efforts to encourage cycling; • Meeting with planners,engineers,government staff and bike advocates to discuss best practices and provide feedback on how to achieve the Bicycle Friendly Community designation that your community is seeking; • A post-visit Bicycle Friendly Community Report Card that will provide a quick action plan and our initial assessment,focusing on priority actions that will have the greatest impact. I will be contacting you soon about available dates,and seeing if you have a preference. Typically I just need a half day—morning or afternoon.

CAPITAL AREA METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION 2015 TRANSPORTATION PLANNING REVIEW PROCESS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) is the designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the Jefferson City, Missouri, metropolitan planning area. The 2015 planning process review will concentrate on documenting CAMPO's efforts and accomplishments of this process. The previous FHWA/FTA planning process review of CAMPO was completed on August 26, 2008. No corrective actions were identified as a result of the 2008 review. Objectives of the 2015 FHWA/FTA Planning Process Review are highlighted in the final report. The review is intended to serve as a catalyst to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of CAMPO's planning process; to help ensure major issues facing the metropolitan area are being addressed; and to provide opportunity for continued progress in growing the art of transportation planning,while implementing applicable federal regulations. The review team's work involved an off-site (office/desk) portion, and on-site portion. The on-site portion of the review was conducted January 28, 2015—January 29, 2015. This was a general review of the entire planning area, and all the agencies involved, assure compliance with applicable requirements; and an assessment of CAMPO's progress in addressing findings from the 2008 review. Observations and Findings The final report documents the review team's observations and findings, including eight commendations for successful practices,and seven recommendations for improving the planning process. Commendations Commendation #1: CAMPO staff excels at connecting with planning partners on work product development. CAMPO is commended for the level of communication and collaboration during special initiatives such as Wayfinding. Commendation #2: CAMPO presents a well-developed Title VI program, and has done a commendable job on their Title VI Plan, which was found to be entirely consistent with both the Limited English Proficiency(LEP) and Public Participation Plan (PPP). The format of the Title VI Plan is structured in a manner that makes it easy to follow,and easy to understand. Commendation #3: CAMPO does a noteworthy job utilizing innovative outreach methods, especially with regards to digital communication. Commendation #4: The UPWP includes a good description of local transportation challenges, providing a good framework for developing priorities; planning local work activities; and, potentially, future project and process development. Commendation #5: Staff does a good job of communicating modifications to planning documents and work products, especially with regards to TIP modifications. The "before/after" picture of each project modification is good example of how to show changes to project information,and in demonstrating fiscal constraint. Commendation #6: Though more projects are desired in the MTP and TIP, the MPO actively promotes multi- modal planning,especially with recent Wayfinding and bicycle/pedestrian planning activities. Commendation #7: CAMPO's commitment to fostering "livable" communities is commendable in both its transportation planning and comprehensive planning efforts, especially with regards to Wayfinding and bicycle/pedestrian accommodations (as witnessed by the pedestrian improvements along Missouri Boulevard and improvements to the Greenway Trail). Commendation#8: CAMPO staff and MoDOT staff(both Central Office and District Office)do an excellent job at communicating functional classification changes. Central Office staff provide high-quality graphics and supporting documentation for all functional classification modification requests. The UAB graphics produced by Central Office were used to great effect by CAMPO staff. CAMPO 2015 Transportation Planning Process Review Page 2 Recommendations Recommendation#1: In the face of increasing performance management responsibilities, and with CAMPO's goal of continuously improving the effectiveness of the planning process and their work products, CAMPO should strongly consider adding both manpower and technical capacity to their staff. Additional staff will help CAMPO address corridor and future routes studies;and help in better addressing livability and sustainability decision-making —both increasingly crucial factors in a healthy transportation system,a healthy community,and a stronger economy. Recommendation #2: We strongly suggest CAMPO develop a method whereby they can periodically evaluate, measure, and track the effectiveness of their public involvement methods; and a system to periodically introduce new public involvement tools. Recommendation #3: CAMPO should ensure adequate programming of funds in the UPWP in order to accommodate training opportunities necessary to maintain a sufficient level of technical capacity. This is especially important now with steadily changing Federal priorities and requirements. Recommendation #4: As acknowledged by CAMPO during the review meeting, the MTP should be updated to include: a. Clearly defined and locally derived goals, objectives, and strategies to better assist in program and project development. b. An improved description of projects and needs assessment; better connections tying illustrative projects to a specific need; and a systematic process for developing new projects, especially with regards to connectivity. c. Throughout the life of the plan, a better description of Transit ridership, O&M, future capital needs (especially with Transit); and a better description of the existing system along with future needs, financing strategies,and revenues. d. The development of a process whereby the MTP can accommodate TIP projects not already accounted for in the MTP.One very good method is to process MTP amendments concurrently with TIP amendments, where needed. e.The inclusion of a transit safety element. f.The inclusion of more multi-modal projects. Recommendation#5:The TIP should include a stronger representation of multi-modal projects. Recommendation#6: CAMPO would be well-served to expand upon its mobility management successes. Recommendation #7: CAMPO should identify an investment strategy, and resources, dedicated to improving transportation system safety and security. Conclusion The Federal Highway Administration and the Federal Transit Administration conclude that the CAMPO transportation planning process is addressing the major issues in the Metropolitan planning area, and is being conducted in accordance with applicable requirements of 23 CFR Part 450 and 49 CFR Part 613. CAMPO's planning process provides adequate representation and input from all levels of local government and individual groups regarding transportation needs of the metropolitan area. Overall, CAMPO's activities provide for a transportation planning process that results in the support and development of transportation improvements for the entire metropolitan area.

McCarty St., Jefferson City, MO 65101 Phone: 573.634.6410 Fax: 573.634.6457 memorandum TO: CAMPO Board of Directors FROM: Sonny Sanders, Senior Transportation Planner DATE: August 12,2015 SUBJECT: FY2016 Unified Planning Work Program The FY2016 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) was approved by the CAMPO Board of Directors on April 15, 2015. Due to the relationship and timing of the UPWP and the City of Jefferson budgeting process, the document was not forwarded to MoDOT at that time. Since the City of Jefferson's budget process has progressed and MoDOT requires the UPWP for their Consolidated Planning Grant drafting and approval process, the FY2016 Unified Planning Work Program will be transmitted to MoDOT after the August Board of Directors meeting. If any changes are required of the UPWP due to the budgeting process of the City of Jefferson, the UPWP can be changed, modified or amended, as appropriate at a later date.
