Projects being proposed for state and federal funding must be identified in a Regional Transportation Plan, which the Agency updates on a 4-year cycle.
The Regional Transportation Plan includes a listing of regionally significant projects on the regional road, highway, rail and transit networks planned over the time horizon of the plan, which add capacity and need to be included in the AMBAG Regional Travel Demand Model. The plan must also identify all other planned local street, bike/pedestrian and transit projects that may use state or federal funding.
The list of projects identified in the plan must be consistent with the needs, goals and priorities identified in the policy element and the total cost of those projects must fall within the funding capacity of the long range revenue forecast. The draft list of projects is comprised of the project list from the 2018 Regional Transportation Plan, and will be sent out separately for each jurisdiction to review with instructions on how to submit their edits.
Staff requests that member jurisdictions review the list of their local projects and provide feedback on any cost or scope changes, or if projects need to be added or deleted by June 30, 2020.
