9 DATE: May 7, 2018 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: Southwest Area Transportation Committee (SWAT) SWAT Technical Advisory Committee By: Darlene Amaral, SWAT TDM Analyst 511 Contra Costa FY SWAT Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program and Budget RECOMMENDED ACTION The SWAT TAC recommends SWAT review and approve the following: 1. Approve FY SWAT TDM programs and budget; and 2. Authorize staff to submit program applications to the Contra Costa Transportation Authority for Measure J and Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) funding. BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS With the passage of Measure C in 1988 and Measure J in 2004, the voters of Contra Costa County approved the county s half cent transportation sales tax and established a Growth Management Program (GMP). Through its countywide and sub-regional TDM programs, 511 Contra Costa provides essential support to Contra Costa jurisdictions in the following areas: Compliance with the TDM ordinance requirements of the Measure J Growth Management Program Compliance Checklist. Implementation of TDM measures in the Tri-Valley and Lamorinda subregional Action Plans. Fulfillment of the TDM priorities of each of the Regional Transportation Planning Committee s (RTPC), including Countywide and local TDM ordinances. Implementation of cost-effective Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) TFCA programs to reduce Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. Implementation of the MTC-delegated Employer Outreach Program. 9

10 Support and implementation of the TDM elements of the Sustainable Community Strategies of SB 375. Support SWAT employers, with 50 or more employees, to comply with the Bay Area Commuter Benefit Program (SB 1339), by offering commute incentives through the 511 Contra Costa Programs. FISCAL ANALYSIS For FY 2018/19, the primary funding for the 511 Contra Costa TDM program is derived from Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) which is provided by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) Program Manager Funds and administered locally by the Contra Costa Transportation Authority (CCTA). The incentive programs (transit, vanpool, carpool, guaranteed ride home and employer outreach) are funded with TFCA dollars. In addition, Measure J Commute Alternative funding is available to 511 Contra Costa to cover indirect costs associated with programs funded with TFCA grant money, as well as local TDM projects, approved by the RTPCs. The CCTA and BAAQMD allocate funding for purposes of implementing TDM projects/programs that meet the goals and objectives to reduce traffic congestion and improve air quality. Current BAAQMD TFCA policy allows the use of TFCA funds for program and project direct costs but are limited in use for program indirect costs. Funding for the 511 Contra Costa programs is allocated sub-regionally based on a formula which includes 50% population and 50% jobs within each sub-region. The current allocation distribution is: Central/East County (TRANSPAC/TRANSPLAN) 57.10% West County (WCCTAC) 22.70% Southwest County (SWAT) 20.20% The BAAQMD allows the Congestion Management Agency s (CCTA) to use 5% of the county allocation for program administration. Therefore, the Authority s share of funding is to cover Authority administration of the program. The proposed FY SWAT TDM programs/budget has been reviewed by SWAT TAC. The proposed SWAT TDM program expenditure plans and budget for FY is attached and program funding is available beginning July 1, TFCA funds must be spent within two years of receipt, unless an application states that the project will take a longer period of time and is approved by the County Program Manager or the Air District. 10

11 A summary of TDM program funding for FY is as follows: TFCA $322,042 Measure J $172,016 TOTAL: $494,058 STEPS FOLLOWING APPROVAL 1. Forward FY SWAT TDM Programs and Financial Plan to the Contra Costa Transportation Authority. 2. Authority staff will forward the 511 Contra Costa Countywide TDM program applications to the Bay Area Air Quality Management District. 3. Upon approval by the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, the Air District will enter into an agreement with the Contra Costa Transportation Authority. 4. Subsequently, the Contra Costa Transportation Authority will enter into an agreement with the City of San Ramon for the implementation and oversight of the SWAT TDM programs for FY ATTACHMENT 1.

22 1 I-680 Contra Costa Express Lanes 6 Month Preliminary Analysis of Mid-day Operations Southwest Area Transportation Committee May 7,

23 2 Rules of the Road 23

24 Overall Lane Performance Highlights February 3 24

25 4 Mid-day Operations Background Established in conjunction with Caltrans and CHP Peak congestion spreading beyond HOV hours Consistent with adjacent Express Lanes Congestion pricing - low mid-day toll Mid-day management tool for incidents and irregular congestion Report back after 6 months of operations 25

26 Observations Traffic is increasing due to robust economy peak is spreading General purpose lanes still flowing well, on average about 60 m.p.h. or better between 9:30 and 2:00 Expanded hours benefit HOVs 6 months of data is not enough to determine a trend 5 26

27 6 Growth in Traffic Since October General Purpose Lane Traffic (Livorna Zone) October GP November GP December-2017 GP January-2018 GP February-2018 GP March-2018 GP Sustainable Traffic Flow Threshold EL 5:00 5:20 5:40 6:00 6:20 6:40 7:00 7:20 7:40 8:00 8:20 8:40 9:00 9:20 9:40 10:00 10:20 10:40 11:00 11:20 11:40 12:00 12:20 12:40 13:00 13:20 13:40 14:00 14:20 14:40 15:00 15:20 15:40 16:00 16:20 16:40 17:00 17:20 17:40 18:00 18:20 18:40 19:00 19:20 19:40 27

28 7 Mid-day Traffic Data Parameters General purpose lane speeds & density 4 lanes before express lanes 3 lanes after express lanes Mid-day period is 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Data for Tuesday through Thursday, October 2017 through March 2018 Density analysis location - just south of El Cerro Speed data calculated in northern zone to show worst case Speed data is weighted average speed 28

29 8 A.M. improvement Lanes flowing above 55 mph majority of mid-day P.M. starts slowing earlier at El Cerro to below 55 mph ~2:00 p.m. Express lanes also slow at El Cerro around 2 p.m. N General Purpose Lanes Feb-17 General Purpose Lanes Feb-18 This is possibly due to higher corridor volumes Express lanes provide their intended mid-day benefit

30 9 S The expanded a.m. peak was a reason for longer express lane operating hours Express lanes are offering a benefit to carpools traveling in this expanded peak General Purpose Lanes General Purpose Lanes A.M. general purpose lanes seeing a slight improvement in duration and intensity of traffic 35 Feb-17 Feb Speeds above 55 mph except for the a.m. peak 30

31 10 Variability in year-over-year comparisons Overall similar mid-day average speed in GP lanes Some year-over-year comparisons show slight improvement (February Northbound) Some year-over-year comparisons show slight decline (March Southbound) 31

32 11 Northbound Traffic Density Year over Year (Tuesday Thursday) Slightly less dense 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.; same rest of mid-day Slightly more dense throughout mid-day 32

33 12 Southbound Traffic Density Year over Year (Tuesday Thursday) Slightly less dense 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.; same during rest of mid-day period February shows a slight increase in density after 11:30 a.m. 33

34 Summary Observations Mid-day General Purpose Lanes 13 6 months of data is not sufficient to determine trends. Mid-day hours of operation are providing benefits to HOV travelers as traffic grows and the peak spreads. Speeds and densities are fairly consistent before and after lane opening. P.M. slows earlier (2:00 vs. 3:00) at El Cerro in both general purpose and express lanes possibly due to higher corridor volumes. Slightly more traffic density since opening but mostly LOS C MTC has received virtually no public comments since lanes opened regarding mid-day operating hours 34

35 14 Next Steps The express lanes are working! Continue to monitor midday operations Listen to public Report back to stakeholders Before/after study 35
