63 Information Needed from Client: TBD Proposed Fee: $174, Proposed Schedule: 8 Months from Notice to Proceed

64 Draft Scope of Work Purpose Northwest Florida continues to experience changing demographics, continued growth and urbanization, evolving economic sectors, as well as environmental and sustainability concerns. These factors point to the need for regional coordination and partnership to implement an efficient public transportation system. The purpose of this task work order is to determine the feasibility of establishing a Regional Transit Authority (RTA) in Northwest Florida. This authority would coordinate and/or provide transit services in an area to be determined. The implementation of this regional, cooperative approach will very much depend upon the willingness of citizens, businesses, and elected officials to build critical partnerships that harness the collective strength of individual communities across the region. Successful regions across the nation are those which have committed to innovative solutions and partnerships to plan, fund, and implement robust transportation and mobility systems to enhance economic development potential and create jobs. Other regions around Florida have seen advantages in establishing both regional transit and transportation authorities to assist in meeting the regional mobility needs. One of the recent authorities established is the Northeast Florida Regional Transportation Commission. This commission covers a seven county area and is charged with identifying and implementing transportation projects of regional significance. Over a two year period the Study Commission has debated the most effective means to elevate Northeast Florida s economy and quality of life by means of regionally-significant transportation investments in Duval, Nassau, St. Johns, Clay, Putnam, Baker and Flagler counties and the municipalities therein. The Study Commission carefully examined the roles and responsibilities of existing entities, studied the efforts and experiences of other peer regions and identified the gaps and opportunities in current efforts to deliver regional transportation projects and services. The Study Commission recommendations reflect a responsible approach that will position Northeast Florida not only to avoid a future crisis but take advantage of economic opportunities. The Study Commission based its recommendations on the following key findings of need: An efficient regional transportation system is central to the future economic competitiveness and quality of life for Northeast Florida

65 There is an opportunity for enhanced coordination of planners and implementers on a regional scale specifically for regionally significant projects There is a need for new, dedicated regional funding for regional transportation Having a strong and consistent regional voice on transportation issues is increasingly important in the successful pursuit of state, federal and private transportation funding The Florida-Alabama TPO is charged with implementing a comprehensive, corporative, and continuing planning process. This project s goal is to assist with completing public transportation planning at the regional level that addresses the long and short-term public transportation needs of the area. Phase 1 Work Tasks Task 1: Identify RTA Stakeholders The CONSULTANT will assist the TPO staff in identifying and interviewing potential stakeholders who will be charged with carefully examining the roles and responsibilities of existing public transportation entities, the efforts and experiences of other peer regions and the gaps and opportunities in current efforts to deliver public transportation projects and services at the local and regional levels. These stakeholders will be responsible for making a recommendation whether or not to proceed into Phase 2. It is currently envisioned that the stakeholders will be elected officials and regional leaders from the participating counties and cities. Deliverables 1. RTA Stakeholders database

66 Task 2: Regional Transit Authority Research and White Paper The CONSULTANT shall develop a White Paper on the various types of Regional Transit Authorities (RTA) in place around the State of Florida. If appropriate, up to two national examples will also be included. At a minimum, the White Paper will address the following questions: 1. Why a regional approach? 2. What is a Regional Transit Authority (RTA)? 3. How is an RTA formed? 4. What are the responsibilities of and RTA? 5. How is an RTA governed? 6. What are the advantages of an RTA? 7. How is an RTA funded? Deliverables 1. White Paper on Regional Transit Authorities (RTA). Task 3: Stakeholder Workshop on RTA White Paper The CONSULTANT will prepare and present a summary presentation of the White Paper to the RTA Stakeholders committee at a workshop. Once the white paper has been drafted the findings will be presented at a workshop. The CONSULTANT will have staff on hand to answer the committee s questions, record the workshop proceedings, summarize the workshop findings and follow up with the committee on items as appropriate. Deliverables 1. Presentation of findings to the RTA Stakeholders committee and Workshop Summary/Report

67 Task 4: Regional Transit Authority Panel Discussion The CONSULTANT will organize and facilitate a panel discussion with three (3) to five (5) panelists. These panelists shall have firsthand experience establishing an RTA and/or administering an RTA. The goal of this workshop will be to provide an opportunity for the stakeholders to hear transportation professionals with experience at and real-world knowledge of RTA formation, administration and operation. The outcome should be that the stakeholders clarify, develop, and evaluate their position on the need for and type of RTA best suited for the transit needs of Northwest Florida. Invited panelists will be from the southeast with an emphasis on Florida experience. Travel expenses only, will be provided for the panelists. Steps to be completed: 1. The TPO Staff and the CONSULTANT will identify the goal and purpose of the panel discussion. 2. The CONSULTAND and TPO Staff will identify and invite experts to participate as panelists and a moderator. 3. TPO Staff, the moderator and the CONSULTANT will determine the parameters of the panel discussion. 4. The CONSULTANT and the moderator will develop a number of seed questions for the panelists. Deliverable 1. A half day panel discussion on the development and administration of an RTA that is recorded and formatted to use on the TPO s website. Task 5: Regional Transit Authority Workshop The CONSULTANT will prepare for and conduct a workshop with the stakeholders to determine if the formation of an RTA should continue to Phase 2. The workshop will be an intensive, structured meeting. The aim is for all participants to come to a consensus on the need for and continued efforts to establish a regional transit authority. The CONSULTANT will work with the TPO Staff to set the agenda, and establish a definite set of goals for the workshop. The workshop will be structured in such a way as to maximize participant s contributions and to ensure that all discussions are documented in a productive and effective manner.

68 Deliverable 1. A full day workshop with the stakeholders to reach an understanding and seek consensus in developing a recommendation to the Florida-Alabama TPO on whether or not to proceed with establishing a regional transit authority. The recommendation will provide background on and explanation of the stakeholders recommendation(s): Phase 1 Deliverable Phase 1 will be fully documented in a technical report that will cover all aspects of Tasks 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The document will be produced in both hard copy and electronic format as follows: Ten (10) hard copies One (1) camera ready original Fifty (50) compact disks (electronic documents) Two (2) series of meetings with the Florida-Alabama TPO Board and Advisory Committees o Project Kick-Off o Final Report Recommendation to the Florida-Alabama TPO on whether or not to proceed with establishing a regional transit authority.

69 Schedule Phase 1 is anticipated to take eight (8) months to compete. Notes: 1. At the conclusion of Phase 1 the scope for Phase 2 will be drafted (if appropriate) 2. Internal coordination meetings with the TPO staff will be conducted via teleconference.

83 Florida-Alabama TPO Advisory Committee Survey Results Please share your feedback on the following questions in an effort to make our advisory committee meetings more productive for all. FOR ALL ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEMBERS: The advisory committees of the Florida-Alabama TPO are considering consolidation to one day to lessen the burden on committee members and presenters. Please choose your preferred meeting day of week below: FOR ALL ADVISORY COMMITTEE MEMBERS: What time of day would work best for you to meet? Morning (8:30 or later) or afternoon (no later than 3)? FOR CAC AND BPAC MEMBERS ONLY: We are considering consolidating the Citizens' Advisory Committee with the Bicycle-Pedestrian Advisory Committee. Other TPOs have realized this structure served their needs better. The combination resulted in a stronger, more effective committee for all and it was more convenient for members who serve on more than one committee. Would you support combining the committees?

84 Additional comments Coffee would nice but not required. Maximizing the involvement of the public in the transportation planning process is important. Having two separate committees allows for broader participation and input from those with specific transportation planning interest. I believe the emphasis should be on growing the membership in both committees as you have been working to do. I thank you for those efforts and all you do to support the transportation planning process. Please do not combine; w/bepac they would be unbearably long! How about CAC in the morning and BEPAC in the afternoon. Eliminate dual committee membership, for then the "burden" for the citizen members is eliminated for the situation in the first question. Presenter burden is a separate issues and should warrrant its own question. Staff burden should not be relevant to committee members, non issue for members, this not a question "FOR ALL ADVISORY COMMMITTEE MEMBERS." Although few citizens attend, they should be the focus and remain the purpose for which memebs meet. For improved citizen, non-committee member, non-staff, non-presenter attendance, the PUBLIC meetings should be at a time which Bette accommodates public users of transportation plannning. After usual work hours, or late in the work shift day might improve public attendance. So might meeting at more convenient locations throughout the MPA - with regularly scheduled rotation of venues. Let the sun shine into and onto more meetings for more people. Minimize presentation to the absolute necessary for action items only, if and only if the agenda item is moved for voting and discussion is opened by the chair before a vote. If no discussion is initiated, then no presentation. Eliminate presentations for non action items; no presentations for content agenda items, no presentations for informational itmes. Require all presentations to be submitted one week prior for distribution, or web site patting and REQUIRED member viewing prior to meeting (IP addresses can be easily checked for viewing or downloading presentation) thus hold members accountable for meeting preparation. I think the earlier efforts to make all committee agendas, exactly the same as the TPO agenda allowed the committee meeting to go longer by becoming more comprehensive in an unnecessary manner. Committee Reports should be made to TPO, per Robert's Rules. But not by staff. Committees should report directly to the TPO as designed and purposed. CAC is a mini TPO, common (non-elected official) representation of public views. TCC should be just engineering feasability perspective, not political, not misrepresent citizens. Bike/Ped should only discuss and provide direct input to TPO on only bike and ped related projects. If none are included in a planning project then they should only inquire as to why, and maybe propose how bike/ped inclusion would be of greater benefit to more transportation users. Don't combine. Reduce and Focus. I believe the ideal day would be a TCC meeting in the morning and a combined BPAC/CAC in the afternoon following lunch. The meeting on a Monday would give RPC staff a day in between to prepare the committee's recommendations and/or address any issues that came out of the TCC or BPAC prior to the TPO meeting. This also gives local agencies time to review those recommendations with their respectable TPO representatives prior to the meeting on Wednesday. While I realize the issue of convenience could possibly be resolved for the TPO through the combination of committees, I feel the separate interests of these committees would be diluted through their combination. I prefer Monday because it provides more time to meet with the elected official before the TPO meeting on Wednesday. Although I checked pm for the meeting, I am flexible and could meet in the morning. I inadvertently checked combine for the CAC and BPAC, although I am not a member of either. Sorry. Thanks! Afternoon is better for me at the moment, but I think morning better overall. My concerns with combining committees are that 1. There will no longer be a committee who's name contains bicycle and pedestrian, 2. There will only be a single advisory voice which is dominated by the citizenry, 3. BPAC is already a large group to make it through an agenda with. Thank you guys for this and for all your hard work! no real preference on day of week or time of day. Additional request - that meeting materials provided in pdf form include 'bookmarks' to aid in the review and navigation of agenda items. Please combine CAC and BPAC!

Current and future land use As part of this project, the CONSULTANT will develop aerial plots that are an appropriate scale for the corridor. Task 5.0 Crash Data Analyses The CONSULTANT shall obtain crash data for the corridor to determine the number and types of crashes for a two-year period. The CONSULTANT shall sort the data to identify high crash intersections and will pay particular attention to crashes involving pedestrians and bicyclists. The CONSULTANT shall identify improvements and/or access management modifications to help reduce the number and severity of crashes. Recommended improvements will be documented in the CMP. Task 6.0 Existing and Future Traffic Conditions The purpose of this task is to provide a general evaluation of the existing and future LOS along the study corridor. The latest version of the FDOT LOS Tables or operation analysis software (i.e., Synchro and HCS) will be utilized to define existing and future operating conditions. Accomplishment of these objectives will occur through the activities described below.

98 Florida-Alabama TPO SR10A (US90) West Cervantes Street CMP Draft Scope of Services Page 8 Existing Traffic The CONSULTANT shall prepare a spreadsheet tabulation showing location and specific values for: 1) the percent of daily traffic occurring in the peak hours, 2) the directional distribution of travel during the peak hours, and 3) the daily and peak hour truck percentages (where available). Traffic Adjustment The CONSULTANT shall adjust the actual counts to represent annual average daily traffic volumes using weekly seasonal adjustment factors provided by FDOT. Existing Intersection and Roadway Segment Analyses The CONSULTANT shall determine the existing intersection and roadway segment AM and PM peak hour levels of service for the study corridor using the most recent version of SYNCHRO and reporting the results in Highway Capacity Software (HCS) format. Future Intersection and Roadway Segment Analyses The CONSULTANT shall use the most recent version of SYNCHRO to perform intersection and roadway operational analyses for the study area. The Synchro analyses results will be reported in the HCS format for this study. The future roadway segment analyses will be completed for the segments between or approaching the study area intersections as identified above. The analyses will consist of analyzing the impacts of alternative improvements and may include signal optimization, review of turn-lane lengths, turn-lane installation, and turn prohibitions and possible driveway and median closings. The analyses will consider: 1. Conflict points at turn-lanes 2. Continuous middle turn-lanes 3. Access spacing 4. Increased capacity by adding a continuous turn-lane The following analyses will be conducted for each intersection: 1. Existing PM No-Build PM Build PM Task 7.0 Access Management Analyses The CONSULTANT shall apply the latest FDOT access management guidelines and procedures to estimate appropriate median and driveway modifications throughout the corridor. Joint access opportunities, local road connections, road diet, and midblock pedestrian crossings opportunities will also be explored. These improvements will be shown on the aerials.

99 Florida-Alabama TPO SR10A (US90) West Cervantes Street CMP Draft Scope of Services Page 9 Task 8.0 Identification of Opportunities and Constraints Based on the data collected in Task 4, the CONSULTANT will develop a menu of improvements to address the observed conditions of the corridor. These improvements will form the basis of the complete street concept developed in Task 9. Review existing data on traffic operations and conditions. Review current revitalization efforts and proposed area development projects to determine any impact on project design. Review existing ROW maps to determine ROW limits and frontage ingress and egress constraints along the length of the corridor. Review existing and planned utilities for the corridor to evaluate potential impacts for proposed improvements. Review existing and planned parks, recreation, trails, green spaces, schools, and residences to identify potential connections. Develop strategies to address existing and future operational and access constraints at intersections and businesses along the corridor. Coordinate with City of Pensacola staff on possible improvements where opportunities and/or constraints exist. As part of this task the CONSULTANT will develop a framework analysis of the corridor. A framework analysis is an analytical tool that provides a general overview of a project area and reviews how the project relates, connects and/or influences its contextual relationships. Task 9.0 Development of Complete Street Concepts One of the goals of the FDOT is to implement a policy that promotes safety, quality of life, and economic development in Florida. This policy is implemented through a context-sensitive system of Complete Streets. Complete Streets are for everyone: 1. Are designed and operated to enable safe access for all users; 2. Provide safe movement for pedestrians, cyclists, motorists, and transit riders of all ages and abilities. 3. Make it easy for cyclist and pedestrians to cross the street; 4. Allow transit to run on time and make it safe for people to walk to and from transit stops. There is no singular design prescription for Complete Streets. Each is unique and context-sensitive. As such, the CONSULTANT will develop up to four (4) Complete Street Concepts for the corridor. These concepts will include any needed transportation improvements identified in Task 6. Task 10.0 Deliverables (all reports will be in Adobe PDF) The CONSULTANT shall provide the following documents: 1. Monthly Progress Reports The CONSULTANT shall provide a monthly progress report to the TPO Staff. The report is required regardless of project status or payment request. 2.

This will include aerials in hard copy form. 3. Draft CMP Report - The CONSULTANT shall prepare and submit eight (8) hard copies and eight (8) CD s each of the draft report for TPO staff, City of Pensacola staff, FDOT and FHWA

100 Florida-Alabama TPO SR10A (US90) West Cervantes Street CMP Draft Scope of Services Page 10 for review. The CONSULTANT shall prepare and submit twenty (20) hard copies and sixty (60) CD s each of the draft report for the TPO and advisory committees for review and comment. The comments from the TPO Staff, City of Pensacola Staff, FDOT, FHWA, TPO and advisory committees will be incorporated into the final report as appropriate. Aerials that display recommendations will be presented in the report. 4. Final CMP Report The CONSULTANT shall incorporate comments from the state, federal and local governing boards and workshop presentations into the final CMP Report as appropriate. Sixteen (16) color hard copies and eighty-one (81) CD s will be submitted to the TPO Staff for distribution as follows: City of Pensacola - Five (5) color hard copies and ten (10) CD s FDOT - Five (5) color hard copies and five (5) CD s FHWA - One (1) color hard copy and one (1) CD TPO and Advisory Committees Sixty (60) CD s TPO Staff -Five (5) color hard copies and five (5) CD s will be maintained by TPO staff. Task 11.0 Americans with Disabilities Act The CONSULTANT will adhere to the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) of 1990 when developing recommendations for this corridor. The ADA is a wide-ranging civil rights law that prohibits, under certain circumstances, discrimination based on disability. Task 12.0 Additional Services If through the course of the project any additional tasks are determined to be needed by the CONSULTANT, TPO, City of Pensacola, or FDOT the cost must be determined and negotiated, and a change order must be processed by the TPO before the work is performed. If the CONSULTANT conducts the work first and requests payment afterwards the CONSULTANT risks not being paid for the work.
