Proposed Amendment to the 2018-2022 Transportation Improvement Program: US 50 Outer Road Improvements Mr. Rotenberry explained that MoDOT split TIP Project 2017-03, US 50 Outer Road Pavement Improvements, into two projects. He stated that the existing project retains the original TIP number and changes the dollar amount through an administrative modification. Mr. Rotenberry explained that the second project is being entered as a new project, requiring a TIP Amendment. He stated that this project, prior to being split, is identified in the 2013-2035 Metropolitan Transportation Plan. Mr. Silvester explained that the original project included both concrete and asphalt repair. He stated that due to bids received, it was determined to split the asphalt and concrete improvements into two separate phases. Mr. Smith moved and Mr. Benz seconded to conclude the public comment period and approve the proposed amendment to the 2018-2022 Transportation Improvement Program. The motion passed unanimously. B. Federal Safety Performance Measures Mr. Rotenberry explained that within the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, the Federal Highway Administration established 5 performance measures to assess performance and carry out the Highway Safety Improvement Program: (1) number of vehicle fatalities, (2) rate of fatalities per VMT, (3) number of serious injuries, (4) rate of serious injuries per vehicle miles traveled, and (5) number of combined non -motorized fatalities and non -motorized serious injuries. He stated that CAMPO must adopt safety targets, as outlined in the FAST Act, by February 28, 2018. Mr. Rotenberry explained that staff recommends that CAMPO accept the target percentages established by MoDOT as applied toward the MPO area. He stated that the targets are based on a 7% fatality reduction, 4% serious injury reduction, 1% vehicle miles traveled increase and 4% non - motorized fatality and serious injury reduction. Mr. Rotenberry explained that MoDOT established the following statewide targets in August 2017: (1) number of fatalities; (2) fatality rate per 100 million vehicle miles traveled; (3) number of serious injuries; (4) serious injury rate per 100 million vehicle miles traveled; and (5) number of non -motorized fatalities and serious injuries. He stated that the targets are reasonable for the CAMPO region and if the targets are not met, CAMPO staff can calibrate them to improve accuracy. Mr. Rotenberry explained that while the state safety targets are an important measure with respect to transportation planning, there are no repercussions to the CAMPO area for failing to achieve safety targets. Mr. Benz moved and Mr. Smith seconded to approve and incorporate the safety performance targets into the 2018-2022 Transportation Improvement Program. The motion passed unanimously. 7.
