RTP Components • Incorporates county transportation commissions' long-range transportation plans • Major programs and projects as well as maintenance and the cost of operations • Financial plan-documents fiscal constraint • Performance analysis-transportation conformity, environmental justice, and economic impact analysis • Sustainable Communities Strategy-new for 2012 RTP • Constrained plan, strategic plan, and unfunded projects
What is an RTP • Federal RTP requirements: ~ Forecasts 20-year transportation system plan ~ Reasonably available revenues • Must meet federal transportation conformity standards ~ Addresses ozone, particulate matter, carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide • Complies with new California AB 32 & SB 375 requirements ~ Addresses greenhouse gas emissions
RTP Findings • The system at a glance: ~ 21,690 miles of highways and arterials ~ 470 miles of passenger rail ~ 446 million miles driven each day ~ Rail riders have grown by 45 percent since 2000, yet 34 percent of the region's jobs depend on goods movement creating major rail conflicts ~ 3 million hours are wasted each year in traffic
A Funding Paradox • In spite of growing needs: ~ State and federal gas taxes have not changed in 20 years ... yet Highway construction costs have grown by 82 percent over the same period ~ Rail operating costs have increased by 40 percent over the last decade ... while Transit operators have been forced to cut service by 20 percent • Add to this, increased environmental and safety requirements that drive costs even higher
Reality vs. Projections • The RTP includes $524.7 billion in projects between 2011 and 2035 ... yet • "Core Revenues" which assume no new revenue sources, only totals: $305.3 billion ... so Where does the other $219.4 billion come from?
The Reality • Not every project in the RTP will come to reality • Many of the revenue ideas are either: >-Politically unpalatable >-Overly optimistic >-Will require a major change in state or federal policy >-Fail to have a local nexus between funding source and need Vet, massive needs will remain and Riverside County is no exception ...
Funding the Gap in the RTP ; ... 1:2~· billio'h · ··. ·
Unfunded Riverside County Projects • Here is a partial list of improvements that aren't fully funded in the next 20 years: ~Significant improvements in Banning Pass Area ~Widening of State Route 60 ~State Route 79 Realignment ~Any expansion of Metrolink service to additional locations ~Grade Separations ~Additional needs?
Quality of Life • Along with projects, there are related needs ... ~Additional acquisition of MSHCP habitat ~Active Transportation Improvements ~Community-based transit Improvements ~ Emissions reductions through technology and cleaner fuels
The State of the State • New supermajorities in Sacramento will be busy • Some ideas are already on the table in California ~ Reinstate higher VLF and dedicate to transportation ~ Increase and index the gasoline excise tax ~ VMT fee levy on vehicle registrations ~ Use of cap and trade revenue for transportation ~Additional utilization of privatization and tolling ~ Lessening the two-thirds supermajority requirement for special taxes
What Should We Do? • RCTC must remain engaged in funding discussions • An ad hoc committee would be helpful for input • We are already a tolling agency • Lowering the two-thirds threshold has strong support in many areas of the state • The state's priority will be on maintenance and preservation leaving locals to fund new capacity • Consideration of what can be funded with a new measure does not equal an endorsement, but it ensures we are prepared
The Cost of Inaction • Inland unemployment rates remain higher than in coastal areas • Every $1 billion in transportation investment creates 18,000 jobs • The RTP estimates that every dollar of investment generates a return of $2.90 to the economy • RCTC should lead any discussion of transportation funding strategies to ensure that others do not set priorities for us
