7 FLAGSTAFF METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION Transportation Improvement Program Chapter I Introduction

8 Chapter I. INTRODUCTION GENERAL FLAGSTAFF METROPOLITAN PLANNING ORGANIZATION TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM This Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) represents the project selection document for Federally-funded project. Project priorities are indicated by the year the project is programmed. For Federally-funded projects, the year programmed as indicated in the TIP refers to the state fiscal year ending June 30 th. This TIP is a multi-year, multi-agency listing of transportation improvements for the Flagstaff Metropolitan Planning Organization s (FMPO) area covering a period of five years, 2010 through Included are projects on state routes which have recommended funding by the Arizona Department of Transportation for consideration by the Arizona State Transportation Board (Table 1) these projects are extracted from the state s draft 5-year plan; projects proposed for funding under the Federal Surface Transportation Program, Bridge, or Hazard Elimination System (Safety) programs; and other needed projects for which state funding is sought and/or local sources of revenue are identified. Last year s improvements are the Annual Listing of Projects. Table 2 in Chapter II presents projects proposed by FMPO members for potential inclusion in the Arizona State Highway System within the FMPO area. Chapter III lists other proposed local projects both federally and non-federally funded. Each of the projects proposed for implementation in this TIP are consistent with the FMPO Regional Transportation Plan, adopted June 13, 2002.

9 GEOGRAPHIC AREA Figure 1 illustrates boundaries for the Flagstaff Metropolitan Planning Organization. The area stretches from the unincorporated areas of Kachina Village and Mountainaire in the south to the San Francisco Peaks in the north and the unincorporated areas of Winona to the east and Bellemont to the west. Figure 1. FMPO Boundaries

10 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS Under federal guidelines, the TIP is a staged, multi-year (4-5) program of transportation projects which is consistent with and implements the FMPO Regional Transportation Plan. The TIP must be prepared in such detail as to identify projects (or groupings of projects of similar types), to assign these projects to appropriate staging periods, and to identify costs and funding sources. Further, it must be revised as least biannually and be endorsed by the FMPO. The purpose of the TIP is to synthesize the short-range plans and programs of all local agencies to insure coordination, to schedule projects of area-wide significance which are recommended in the Regional Transportation Plan, and to provide system s level overview of the proposed improvements for the entire area. Further, the TIP is a central program management tool for structuring metropolitan transportation programs and reflects the integrated nature of the regional transportation system. The TIP must be approved by the FMPO Executive Board and the Governor of Arizona or his/her designee. Following such approvals, the TIP shall be included in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) prepared by the Arizona Department of Transportation. FMPO S TIP is a product of the regional transportation planning process that is carried on cooperatively by FMPO with the City of Flagstaff, Coconino County and ADOT. Working together, these agencies plan and sponsor projects that carry out the policies and recommendations of the regional plan. This process is detailed in Figure 2. CRITERIA FOR INCLUSION OF A PROJECT IN THE TIP The FMPO has created an application form and process the scoring for which is summarized below: Roadway Projects: Criteria: REGIONAL PLAN SUPPORT Possible Points: 20 Criteria: ROADWAY SYSTEM ENHANCEMENT Possible Points: 25 Criteria: COST EFFECTIVENESS Possible Points: 15 Criteria: BONUS POINTS Possible Points: 10 Transit Projects: Criteria: COMPLIANCE WITH SHORT RANGE TRANSIT PLAN Possible Points: 20 Criteria: EXISTING AND/OR FUTURE RIDERSHIP ON ROUTE Possible Points: 20 Criteria: SAFETY AND SECURITY Possible Points: 20 Criteria: INTERMODALISM/MULTIMODALISM Possible Points: 10 Criteria: REGIONAL PLAN SUPPORT Possible Points: 10 Criteria: BONUS POINTS Possible Points: 10

11 Pedestrian/Bicycle Projects: Criteria: SAFETY Possible Points: 25 Criteria: REGIONAL PLAN SUPPORT Possible Points: 20 Criteria: PEDESTRIAN/BIKEWAY SYSTEM ENHANCEMENT Possible Points: 25 Criteria: EFFECTIVENESS/COST EFFECTIVENESS Possible Points: 20 Criteria: BONUS POINTS Possible Points: 10 This process is employed when the number of projects proposed for the use of federal funds exceeds the ability to work through a consensus process.
