MAP-21/FAST ACT REGIONAL PERFORMANCE MEASURES

AND TARGETS

Presented by: Keith Nichols, PE

TTAC Agenda Item #13

October 3, 2018

2

• The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) surface transportation legislation established a performance-and outcome-based program.

• As part of this program, MAP-21 (and the FAST Act) require that States and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) prepare and use a set of federally-established performance measures.

• States and MPOs must also set targets and monitor progress for each of these performance measures.

• HRTPO staff will work in cooperation with the TTAC to produce these targets, and the TTAC formed a performance measures working group at the September 2017 meeting.

• For target setting, the MPO may:

• Adopt VDOT statewide targets, but report metrics specific to the Metropolitan Planning Area (MPA)

• Select unique, MPO specific targets, and report metrics specific to the MPA

• Use a combination of statewide and unique targets

• There are no “penalties” for MPOs for not meeting their performance targets, although it can be addressed during the quadrennial certification review to ensure adequate performance-based planning.

Transit TAM Measures

Asset Type Performance Measure Asset Classes

Rolling Stock % of revenue vehicles within each asset class that have met or

exceeded their useful life benchmark

Buses, ferry boats, light rail vehicles, trolley buses, vans.

Equipment/Service Vehicles

% of vehicles that have met or exceeded their useful life

benchmark

Non-revenue automobiles, trucks, other rubber tire vehicles

Infrastructure % of track segments, signals, and systems with performance

restrictions

Light rail infrastructure

Facilities

% of facilities in each asset class rated under 3.0 on FTA’s TERM

scale

Passenger facilities, parking facilities, maintenance facilities,

administrative facilities

• Tier I transit agencies (HRT) must develop and carry out their own TAM plans.

• Tier II transit agencies (WATA and Suffolk Transit) are eligible to participate in group TAM plans.

• WATA and Suffolk Transit chose to use the DRPT statewide targets.

• Regional targets are based on a weighted average of HRT, WATA, and Suffolk Transit targets.

# seconds = TTTR Ratio

TTTR: Single Segment, Interstate Highway System

Monday – Friday

6 – 10 a.m. TTTR = 63 sec

42 sec = 1.50

10 a.m. – 4 p.m. TTTR = 62 sec

45 sec = 1.38

4 – 8 p.m. TTTR = 85 sec

50 sec = 1.70

Weekends 6 a.m. – 8 p.m. TTTR = 52 sec

40 sec = 1.30

Overnight 8 p.m. – 6 a.m. TTTR = 46 sec

38 sec = 1.21

Maximum TTTR 1.70
