Technical Advisory Committee

From:

Doug Bilse, Principal Engineer

Meeting Date:

October 6, 2022

Subject:

Bi-Annual State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP) Package


RECOMMENDED ACTION:

RECEIVE presentation and PROVIDE input on Bi-Annual State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP) Package.

SUMMARY:

The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) manages the State Highway Operation and Protection Program (SHOPP) that includes monitoring the condition and operational performance of the highways through periodic inspections, traffic studies, and system analysis. The Biannual SHOPP Package will be reviewed including the 10-year workplan and 3-year workplan. 

FINANCIAL IMPACT:

The SHOPP is funded through the State Highway Account supporting the State’s priority for preserving the existing infrastructure. The projects funded in the 2021 SHOPP in Monterey County as of December 31, 2021 are comprised of Major (greater than $1.25 million), Minor (less than $1.25 million), and Emergency Programs.

DISCUSSION:

Caltrans manages the SHOPP, which includes monitoring the condition and operational performance of the highways through periodic inspections, traffic studies, and system analysis. The SHOPP is funded through the State Highway Account supporting the State’s priority for preserving the existing infrastructure.

 

The attached Biannual SHOPP Packet includes the following: programmed projects in and near construction, projects programmed for construction in future years, projects funded by the Minor program (less than $1.25 million), Long-Lead projects with committed but not yet programmed funding, the 2024 SHOPP Project Initiation Document (PID) candidate projects proposed for programming on July 1, 2024, and future PID projects identified in the 10-Year Plan. The final page in the attachment includes a list of Non-SHOPP projects that are captured in the 3-year workplan.


This presentation is an opportunity for the Committee to provide Caltrans updates as well as identify any new regionally or locally funded projects of which Caltrans should be aware. Discussion of proposed scope, funding scenarios, delivery time frames, potential impacts to the State Highway System, and coordination responsibilities can help determine partnering opportunities as well as determine if the project will require traditional Non-SHOPP PID oversight or can be processed through Caltrans District 5 Permits Office. In order to be added into the Non-SHOPP PID workplan, a project needs to be included in the TAMC Regional Transportation Plan (RTP), be in Caltrans’s 3-yr workplan, and have an executed cooperative agreement for Caltrans.

 

Committee representatives are encouraged to contact Darron Hill, Office Chief of Programming and Asset Management at (805) 503-9374 or email Darron.Hill@dot.ca.gov with any comments or questions.
