Regional Transportation Plan

First Draft Hybrid Scenario

Valley Metro Comments The Regional Transit Study

Documented large unmet transit needs.

Modeling may understate ridership for LRT due to coding.

Scenario C is aggressive – reducing the network will improve performance.

Need to include supporting infrastructure in coding (park & ride, local bus, etc.)

ADOT Comments Construct South Mtn as soon as possible. Construct L303 as an ultimate freeway, with

interim roadway in the near term. ROW preservation and interim construction of

L303 to Riggs Rd. Support I-10 Reliever and Williams Gateway

Parkway with consideration for staging with full ROW preservation.

Support L303: New River spur for staged construction with full ROW preservation.

ADOT Comments (cont’d) Major reconstruction to SR51 from I-10 to

Glendale required if adding capacity. Funding for I-17 from I-10 to Dunlap inadequate.

Funding for SR 74 access control and widening to 4-lane divided.

Support regional bus, express and LRT funding at about $4.0 billion.

Support arterial funding for regional connectivity. Fund Grand Avenue from the Arterial Streets

category.

Support Q of L projects such as “quiet” pavements, noise walls and landscaping.

Need to address additional maintenance funding.

Focus sales tax on expansion of the regional system and new corridors. Focus ADOT funding on other freeways/highways.

ADOT Comments (cont’d)

Maricopa County Comments Only fund capital from ½ cent tax Encourage innovative approaches such

as tolled HOT / HOV lanes East-West mobility needs from L101 to

L303 Extend SR 74 to connect to proposed

Canamex Consider 5 cent gas tax increase and

index to inflation for maintenance

Maricopa County Comments (continued) Fund specific arterial improvements

and only on the County’s Primary System

No sales tax for arterial maintenance Fund BRT and express bus capital, no

O&M No LRT funding Other regional programs funded 50/50.

Guidance for Hybrid Changes Fiscally balance the plan. Reflect different needs in sub-

regions. Focus on regionally significant

projects. Incorporate local match for

regional bus O&M. Refine revenues and costs

Freeway / Highway Changes Lanes configuration and costs for

widening confirmed with ADOT. Grand Ave increased by $20 mil.

Total investment = $231 million I-10 Reliever moved to interim

I-17 Investments I-10 (east) to I-10 (west)$ 30 mil I-10 (west) to L101 $557

I-10 Investments I-10 West $ 336

Freeway/Highway Comments More funding for I-17 SR 51 improvements needed SR 74 – access control and widening Funding for neighborhood mitigation:

Walls Rubberized asphalt on balance of system

Show routes for future development. Look at I-10 Reliever options.

Planning cost estimates based on L303 Corridor Study: MC 85 to Riggs Rd., June 11, 2003

Arterial Street Changes Costs checked and updated Additions:

L101 Frontage Roads: Princess Dr. to Scottsdale Rd: $25 mil.

15 Intersection improvements to improve regional traffic flow in Chandler and Gilbert.

Deletions: 99th ave connector ($30 mil) Sun Valley Extension to Grand Ave. ($130 mil) Jomax Rd: L303 to Sun Valley Extension ($228 mil) Riggs Rd: Gilbert Rd to Meridian. ($54 mil)

Next Steps Refine the fiscally balanced hybrid plan. Present revised plan at July 16th TPC

workshop. Possible TPC acceptance of the revised

hybrid to submit to agencies and public for comments.

Modeling of hybrid. Plan refinements based on modeling and

comments. September adoption for AQ conformity
