    Business Item No. 2020-199 Transportation Committee Meeting date: July 13, 2020 For the Metropolitan Council meeting of July 22, 2020 Subject: Purchase Go-To Card Validators for Orange and D Line District(s), Member(s): Policy/Legal Reference: Council Policy 3-3 Expenditures – Procurement of Goods and Services over $500,000 Staff Prepared/Presented: Wes Kooistra, General Manager (612) 349-7510 Edwin D.

Background Smart card validators (SCVs) are used throughout the regional transit system for off-board fare payments made using Go-To cards. SCVs are primarily used on light rail and bus rapid transit (BRT), including A Line and C Line. Go-To card payments made using SCVs account for approximately 70% of rides taken on A and C Line. The Metro Transit departments Revenue Operations, BRT Projects, and Service Development agree that both the Orange Line and the D Line should also provide off-board fare payment based on the advantages off-board payment provides for BRT lines. Off-board fare payment collection is required to meet running times for bus rapid transit (BRT) Orange and D Lines. The current SCVs are provided by Cubic Transportation Systems and integrate with all other Go-To card payment technologies, including SCVs used at other BRT and rail platforms; TVMs used on rail platforms; validators used regular-route buses; and other sales and validation equipment used to read and recharge Go-To cards.

  • Chapter 10 Equity and Environmental Justice
    CHAPTER 10 EQUITY AND ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE Introduction An important consideration for the 2040 Transportation Policy Plan is its impact on all populations in the Minneapolis-Saint Paul region, particularly those who have been historically underrepresented in regional planning efforts, including communities of color, American Indians, low-income households, people with disabilities, and people with limited English proficiency. Past plans were required to adhere to federal requirements for environmental justice; this plan further responds to additional aspirations for equity set forth in Thrive MSP 2040. This section describes the plan's responses to both federal requirements and regional aspirations. Federal guidance for evaluating impacts is derived from Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 as well as Executive Order 12898, Federal Actions to Address Environmental Justice in Minority and Low- income Populations. Under the executive order, transportation plans and programs (1) must provide a fully inclusive public outreach program; (2) should not disproportionately impact minority and low- income communities, and (3) must assure the receipt of benefits by minority and low-income populations. The TPP addresses these three principles and they were considered throughout the decision-making process. The analysis section of this chapter discusses these in more detail. These principles must also be considered in the project design and implementation phases for future specific projects. Regional guidance for pursuing equity is outlined in Thrive MSP 2040, the Metropolitan Development Guide required by Minn. Stat. 473.145. Thrive elevates equity to one of five fundamental outcomes of the regional vision. Equity connects all residents to opportunity and creates viable housing, transportation, and recreation options for people of all races, ethnicities, incomes, and abilities so that all communities share the opportunities and challenges of growth and change.

  • Transportation Improvement Program (STIP)
    Metro District/Program Management June 6, 2018 TAC - June 20, 2018 TAB 2019-2022 STIP & 2023-2028 CHIP Overview Figure 1. 3rd Avenue Bridge (MN 65) 2019-2022 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) The new funding from the 2017 Minnesota Legislative session continues to impact the MnDOT Metro District program as projects are advanced and new projects are developed in the STIP years. A major river crossing, the 3rd Ave Bridge (MN 65), enters the STIP this year. Changes from last year’s STIP Projects moving and being added due to new funding • I-35 Pavement in Chisago County advanced from 2021 to 2019 • 3rd Ave Bridge (MN 65) in downtown Minneapolis, advanced from 2021 to 2020 • I-94 Pavement and auxiliary lanes in NW Hennepin County, advanced from 2026 to 2020 • Re-thinking I-94, additional investment beginning 2021 • Other infrastructure: $10M in new funding in each year (2018-2021) is being used to upscope current projects and develop stand-alone roadside infrastructure projects. Main Streets and Interchange funding Some of the new funding has been set aside in 2020 and 2021 for two initiatives in Metro: • The $10M/yr Main Streets pool is intended to upscope projects on trunk highways that run through community main streets or are urban reconstruction projects. These funds will close funding gaps for additional needs that MnDOT and locals have identified as long term fixes that cannot be funded in another way. • A pool for interchange/mobility projects has funding in 2020 ($10M), 2021 ($20M), and 2022 ($25). Through 2021, these funds are intended primarily for MnDOT participation on projects that local agencies are leading on the state highway system.
