Summary: Boise City is in the process of determining their annual transportation requests. To begin the process, we ve invited representatives from area agencies to provide a short briefing on their transportation needs and the status of planned projects in Boise. The speakers are: Toni Tisdale, Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho (COMPASS) Phil Choate, Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) Mark Carnopis, Valley Regional Transit (VRT) Sabrina Anderson, Ada County Highway District (ACHD) Sarah Stobaugh, Boise School District Attached to this report is information from each of the agencies. Next Steps: At the Council s meeting on September 15, 2009, staff will present a draft list of transportation projects/studies for review. The public is invited to comment on the draft list at this meeting. Based on the direction received from the Mayor and Council, staff will finalize the City s requests for action by the Mayor and Council on September 22, The deadline for submitting requests is October 1, Attachments: COMPASS: Overview and Changes to the Transportation Improvement Program ITD: List of Current Projects in Ada County VRT: TIP Project List Summary ACHD: Current (FY ) Prioritization List of: - Roadways - Rebuild-intersections - New intersections - Community programs Boise School District: Overview of the School District s Prioritization Process and Submitted Requests for FY

3 What is a TIP? Transportation Improvement Program Five-year budget document for federal-funded projects updated annually First 2-3 years are most critical. Required by the U.S. Department of Transportation in order to obtain federal funds. Includes all federally funded projects. Includes all regionally significant projects in non-attainment / maintenance areas (Ada County). Combined TIP for Northern Ada County, the Nampa Urbanized Area, and other Canyon County projects.

4 TIP Document

5 TIP - Requirements Must be consistent with the regional long-range transportation plan (Communities in Motion). Must be financially constrained. Must involve the public. Must meet air quality requirements in non-attainment and maintenance areas (Ada County) a process called conformity finding.

6 TIP Project Prioritization There is not enough federal aid to fund all transportation needs. COMPASS staff is currently developing a new process to prioritize projects for federal funding. The draft concept and outline is expected to be approved by September 2009 in order to use the new process in the FY TIP Update. New projects will follow the new criteria. The prioritization criteria will be tweaked as the system is tested. The criteria is tied very closely with the goals of Communities in Motion, which is currently going through a limited update, for approval in August 2010.

7 DRAFT Prioritization Process If yes, Go The new process will likely contain a Go/No Go criteria with elements such as these: 1. Does project follow the COMPASS Complete Streets Policy? 2. Is project on a priority corridor in the Long-Range Transportation Plan? If no, No Go 3. Is project consistent with the Community Choices land use scenario? 4. Has the sponsor committed available local match through a formal agency action, such as a Resolution? 5. Does the sponsor have the ability to provide ongoing operating/maintenance funds? Progress to more specific criteria

8 TIP Tracking & Monitoring Federal funds are limited. It is imperative to obligate federal funds early in the fiscal year. Federal funds not obligated by early summer are subject to a funding sweep. Funds are removed from delayed projects and moved to projects that are ready for obligation. COMPASS has an increasing role in tracking and monitoring federal funds. Project tracking helps insure that federal funds are obligated as quickly as possible. Project monitoring provides assistance to COMPASS members in the progress of projects.

9 Timeline for TIP Process *ACHD requires city/county endorsement of priorities by October 1.

15 Downtown Boise Multimodal Center ADA Bus Stop Improvements Short-Range TIP Project Summaries Cost: $11.5 million (includes 20% local match) Project description: This project involves the design and construction of a building on a halfblock parcel of land in Downtown Boise bordered by Idaho, 11th and Bannock Streets. This facility would include bus bays, and may include parking spaces, bicycle parking, a transit/visitor information center, public restrooms and street-orientated retail opportunities. Status/Timeline: The Federal Transit Administration recently issued a FONSI (Finding Of No Significant Impact) following a review of the environmental assessment report. Negotiations are currently under way for land acquisition. Once completed, the focus will turn to design and construction. Construction is expected to begin in Cost: $3.5 million ($3 million in stimulus funds, $500,000 in other federal and local funds) Project description: This project involves improving accessibility to bus stops for people with disabilities (curb cuts, sidewalks, concrete pads, etc.). There are 865 bus stops in the ValleyRide system (101 of which are in Canyon County). A consulting firm is currently reviewing its recommendations and VRT staff recommendations towards a goal of developing a final priority list. Status/Timeline: An RFP is expected to be issued in late September. Work is expected to begin this fall and take about one year to complete. Vehicle Replacement Cost: $4.75 million (no local match required) Project description: This project involves purchasing new buses or paratransit vans to replace leased buses or buses that are past their useful lives. Buses purchased for the Boise system will operate on compressed natural gas (CNG). Status/Timeline: Developing specs for buses. An effort is being made to piggyback on an existing bus order from another system in order to expedite manufacture and delivery of buses. Technology Improvements Cost: $205,000 (no local match required) Project description: This project involved the development of an interactive Web map and trip planner for the ValleyRide website. Status/Timeline: Development of this program has been ongoing (with assistance from the Idaho Transportation Department and is expected to be in operation sometime this fall. Route Restructuring and Service Improvements VRT planning staff are currently working on changes to eight Boise city routes. These changes would include route modifications and additional service. Other changes being proposed are adding one morning and one evening run to the Route 40 Nampa/Meridian Express, and modifying the section of Route 42 Nampa/Meridian Express that passes through Meridian. VRT also is seeking federal funding to implement a commuter route on Ustick Road.

Include Tim Curns of Meridian Public Works on the scoping team Curb, Gutter, Sidewalk on S side of road to match extisting; may also evaluate N side, as it appears that sidewalk can be placed within ACHD ROW and will make the N section continuous May require implementation in phases. Very long segment. Project recommended by the ACHD Traffic Department; filling in gaps in existing sidewalk Provide a safe pedestrian and bicycle facility. Is a gap in the bike network; cost estimate may exist from previous ad hoc scoping efforts Small sidewalk segment on N side of River. Provides a connection for homeless walking to Interfaith Sanctuary Detatched sidewalk Filling is gaps in the sidewalk system would make a continuous connection; crosswalk at Ten Mile; possible temporary solution prior to Ten Mile and Ustick intersection project Talk with City of Star for better project description.

24 Plan Pedestrian facilities on at least one side of the roadway; bikeway signage Finish sidewalk connections Likely too costly for full treatment Sidewalk on Mitchell from Victory and the pathway connection to Amity Elementary Have had several requests from the neighborhood and Commissioners; evaluate a phased approach; Include neighborhood in discussions; neighborhood requests at least the south side be completed Sidewalk on south side Widen to 3 lanes with bike lanes in either direction and a signal at Holcomb Not yet prioritized, was added because of demand increase after the TMI opening; could potentially be included with the Ten Mile and Victory int if funding available Widen roadway from 2 to 5 lanes Widen roadway from 2 to 5 lanes Modify signal and reconstruct/widen approaches Consider for roundabout, per TL High accident location. Consider for rounabout w/slight realingment south, per TL Project split out from the Ustick, Meridian/Locust Grove project

25 Independent School District of Boise City #1 Boundaries, Transportation, and Traffic Safety 8169 W Victory Rd - Boise, ID (208) Fax (208) Date: August 3, 2009 To: From: Subject: Dr. Pete Bailey Sarah Stobaugh Approval of Prioritization List to Ada County Highway District As part of our on-going collaboration with ACHD to improve walking and biking routes to school, attached is our annual prioritized list of pedestrian safety projects for consideration in ACHD s prioritization process. The prioritized school district projects will be given additional weight in ACHD s prioritization process. ACHD requires that our District s prioritized list be endorsed by the Boise School District Board of Trustees through a formal resolution or approval. The process to establish Boise Schools prioritized list of projects is to review the projects that were already on ACHD s list of community projects, add requests submitted by schools participating in the Safe Routes to School program, and finally add other projects that would help to eliminate safety busing. The prioritization process considered and gave points based on the following factors: 1. Is the project less than 1.5 miles from a school? 2. Is the school participating in the Safe Routes to School Program? 3. Will the project help to eliminate busing? 4. How many bus routes could be eliminated? 5. How many students are affected? 6. What is the age/grade level of the affected students? 7. How complex is the project how feasible to be completed? The entire list of seventy-three (73) projects and scoring for all projects was reviewed and approved by the Safe Routes to School Leadership Committee on Thursday, July 23, Based on the scores from our prioritization process, attached is a list of the twenty-three (23) highest scoring projects that would help pedestrian safety for the students of the Boise School District. Also included again this year is a Feasibility List of potential pedestrian pathway connections for ACHD s future consideration. 1

26 ACHD Staff has specifically requested that we retain all projects in our prioritization process until they have been completed. I am happy to report that many of the projects listed as our top priorities are in the process of being evaluated and/or scheduled for construction. Those projects include: Pedestrian Crossing light on Maple Grove at Irving Sidewalks on Cassia Street between Curtis Rd and Orchard St Sidewalks on Curtis Rd between Overland and Franklin Sidewalks on Five Mile between Victory Rd & Amity Rd Sidewalks on Amity Rd between Five Mile and Carie Way Sidewalks on Roosevelt St between Cassia St & Rose Hill St Sidewalks on Bloom Street between State St & Collister Rd Sidewalks on Sunset Ave between 38 th St & 32nd St Sidewalks on Collister Dr between State St & Hill Rd Sidewalks on State St between Collister Dr & Veterans Memorial Parkway Sidewalks on Catalpa Dr between Collister Dr & 36 th St Sidewalks on Kootenai St between Roosevelt St & Vista Ave I am requesting a formal resolution from the Board approving the attached prioritization list to be forward to ACHD for inclusion in their prioritization process. 2

This project in tandem with Project # BSDHor09-2, completion of sidewalks along Fairview Avenue from Milwaukee to Maple Grove, would allow 188 students attending Horizon Elementary safe pedestrian access to school and would eliminate three bus routes. The Boise School District would provide two adult crossing guards to assist students crossing Maple Grove. The Boise School District is willing to pay the cost of the crossing light, estimated to be $80,000 - $100,000. Priority #2 ACHD Project Cassia St, Curtis Rd / Orchard St # Elementary students - 67 # Jr High students - 0 # Sr High students Sidewalks on both sides of Cassia St. This project would improve pedestrian safety for high school students walking to Borah High. This project in tandem with ACHD s project to add sidewalks on Curtis Rd between Franklin Rd and Overland Rd would also allow the school district to discontinue safety busing for students living on the east side of Curtis Rd attending Grace Jordan Elementary. The District would like ACHD to consider as part of this project a pedestrian crossing light across Curtis Rd somewhere near Edson St. Priority #3 BSD Project # BSDHigh09-7 Highlands Elementary Attendance Area # Elementary students # Jr High students - 0 # Sr High students - 0 Crosswalks, ped ramps, and improved signage along designated walking routes to school throughout the Highlands attendance area. Priority #4 ACHD Project Curtis Rd, Overland / Franklin # Elementary students # Jr High students - 0 # Sr High students - 0 Sidewalks on both sides of Curtis Rd. This would allow more direct access for students living on the west side of Curtis Rd walking to Grace Jordan Elementary. This project in tandem with ACHD s project to add sidewalks on Cassia St between Orchard St & Curtis Rd would also allow the school district to discontinue safety busing for students living on the east side of Curtis Rd attending Grace Jordan Elementary.

Priority #13 BSD Project # WP09-1 Pedestrian Crossing Light, Boise Utter St # Elementary students - 28 # Jr High students - 0 # Sr High students - 20 Pedestrian Crossing Signal on Boise Avenue at the end of the pathway near Utter St. This project in tandem with ACHD s project to add sidewalks on Pennsylvania St between Boise Ave & Parkcenter Blvd has the potential to enable the school district to eliminate safety busing for White Pine Elementary students living north of Boise Ave. It will also improve safety for Timberline High School students. The District would furnish an adult crossing guard to assist elementary students to cross Boise Ave. 4

29 Priority #14 ACHD Project Bloom St, State St / Collister Dr # Elementary students - 40 # Jr High students - 12 # Sr High students - 0 Sidewalks on both sides of Bloom St between State St and Collister Dr. This project in tandem with ACHD s project to add sidewalks on Collister Dr between State St and Hill Rd would allow the district to eliminate safety busing for students attending Cynthia Mann Elementary. Priority #15 ACHD Project Sunset Ave, 38 th St / 32 nd St # Elementary students # Jr High students - 5 # Sr High students - 0 Sidewalks on Sunset Ave between 38 th St & 32 nd St. This project would improve the safety of elementary students walking to/from Taft Elementary and also Jr. high students walking to/from Hillside Jr. High. Priority #16 ACHD Project Collister Dr, State St / Hill Rd # Elementary students - 50 # Jr High students - 29 # Sr High students - 0 Sidewalks along both sides of Collister Dr between State St and Hill Rd. Collister Dr is the dividing line between two elementary attendance areas. Students living on the west side of Collister Dr attend Cynthia Mann Elementary. Those living on the east side of Collister Dr attend Collister Elementary. This project would make safer access for students to walk to/from either elementary school, as well as students walking to/from Hillside Jr. High. This project in tandem with ACHD project to add sidewalks on Bloom St between State St and Collister Dr would allow the school district to discontinue safety busing for Cynthia Mann Elementary students living on Bloom St west of Collister Dr. Priority #17 ACHD Project Randolph Dr, Aurora Dr / Cameron St # Elementary students - 82 # Jr High students - 12 # Sr High students Redesign the intersection of Aurora/Randolph/Cameron St to allow safer pedestrian walkway for elementary students living north of the rim walking to Grace Jordan Elementary and also for high school students living south of the rim walking to Borah High. We request that the project also include pedestrian improvements along Cameron St from Randolph Dr to Fairfield Ave. This project would not only enhance safety for students, but would improve neighborhood access to Borah Park and pool, as well as the new Boise Parks & Recreation Community Center located at Grace Jordan Elementary. Priority #18 ACHD Project State St, Collister Dr / Veterans Memorial Parkway # Elementary students 80* # Jr High students - 10 # Sr High students - 0 Sidewalks along both sides of State St between Collister Dr and Veterans Memorial Parkway. *Although there are 80 elementary students living in neighborhoods on the south side of State St attending Taft Elementary, it is unlikely that the district would eliminate safety busing for these students even if sidewalks were installed on State St. The intersection of State St / Veterans Memorial Parkway / 36 th St is too large an intersection to expect elementary students to cross at that location. However the district would potentially consider eliminating safety busing for Hillside Jr High students living in neighborhoods on the south side of State St if they had sidewalks to get safely to a pedestrian crossing light. Priority #19 ACHD Project Pennsylvania St, Boise Ave / Parkcenter Blvd # Elementary students - 16 # Jr High students - 0 # Sr High students - 11 Finish sidewalk connection on the south side of Pennsylvania St between Parkcenter Blvd and Boise Ave. This project, along with a pedestrian crossing light across Boise Ave somewhere near the pedestrian pathway terminating near Boise Ave & Utter St would allow the district to eliminate safety busing for students attending White Pine Elementary. Priority #20 ACHD Project Catalpa Dr, Collister Dr / 36 th St # Elementary students - 87 # Jr High students - 81 # Sr High students - 0 5
