A-11 1 A Guide to the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program Introduction The federally required Transportation Improvement Program (TIP or FTIP), called the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program (MTIP)1 in the Sacramento Region, is a comprehensive listing of transportation projects that receive federal funds, require a federal action, or are regionally significant. The Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG),2 as the federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) for the six-county Sacramento Region, prepares and adopts the MTIP every two years. The MTIP covers a four-year period and must be financially constrained by year, meaning that the amount of dollars committed to the projects (also referred to as “programmed”) must not exceed the amount of dollars estimated to be available. The MTIP must include a financial plan that demonstrates that programmed projects can be implemented. Adoption of the MTIP must be accompanied by an evaluation and determination of air quality conformity.3 Federal regulations also require an opportunity for public comment prior to MTIP approval. Transit, highway, local roadway, bicycle and pedestrian investments are included in the MTIP. Apart from some improvements to the region’s airports and the Port of Sacramento, all regionally significant transportation projects or projects requiring federal action are part of the MTIP. All projects included in the MTIP must be consistent with the long-range regional transportation plan. The current plan for the SACOG region is the 2020 Metropolitan Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (2020 MTP/SCS).4 The 2021-2024 MTIP: Features and Highlights Below are some features and highlights of the 2021-2024 MTIP: 1. Addresses the federal requirements as identified in the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), enacted December 4, 2015. Approximately every four to six years, Congress adopts, and the President signs a transportation act—an authorization to spend tax dollars on highways, streets, roads, transit and other transportation related projects. 2. Covers four years of programming: federal fiscal years (FFY) 2021 through 2024. 3. Includes approximately 520 projects total (126 individually listed transportation projects and 394 grouped projects in 28 grouped project listing categories). 4. Programs over $2.4 billion of the over $3.9 billion of reasonably available federal, state, and local funding during the four years of the MTIP. 5. Refer to Chart 1 below, which breaks down the 2021-2024 MTIP Expenditure Summary across five project categories- Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation; Transit Operations and Maintenance; Road and Highway Expansion; Transit Expansion; and bicycle and pedestrian projects, safety projects, system operations projects, and other related projects. 2 Chart 1. 2021-2024 MTIP Expenditure Summary by Project Category 2021-2024 MTIP Expenditure Summary Transit Operations and Maintenance Road Maintenance 7% and Rehabilitation 36% Road and Highway Expansion 35% Bicycle and pedestrian, safety, system operations, etc. Transit Expansion 13% 9% Investment Decisions: 2020 MTP/SCS and the MTIP The 2020 MTP/SCS, which was approved by SACOG in November 2019, guides and prioritizes all SACOG’s programming decisions. The plan lays out a transportation investment and land use strategy to support a prosperous region, with access to jobs and economic opportunity, transportation options, and affordable housing that works for all residents. The plan also lays out a path for improving our air quality, preserving open space and natural resources, and helping California achieve its goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. The 2020 MTP/SCS invests $35 billion and proactively links transportation, land use and air quality. Additionally, the 2020 MTP/SCS gives individuals more options for how to get around, with investments in walking, biking, and transit as well as roadway improvements. It focuses on four priority policy areas: 1. Build vibrant places for today’s and tomorrow’s

    PAGES 4-5: A SACRAMENTO REGIONAL RAIL STRATEGY Volume 29 Number 1 May 2019 – August 2019 High-Speed Rail: Big Changes Afoot? By David Schonbrunn TRAC Vice President, Policy The Governor’s startlingly candid admission that “Right now, there simply isn’t a path to get from Sacra- mento to San Diego, let alone from San Francisco to LA” has triggered what could become a major reassessment of the State’s commitment to this project. Governor Newsom’s candor was a total break from eight years of uncompromising support by Jerry Brown for a project that still has no realistic long-term funding. The release of the California High- Speed Rail Authority’s (CHSRA) 2019 Project Update Report. and the Trump Administration’s cancellation of a $929 million grant to the project, when added to the Governor’s statement, combine to create a highly dynamic situation.

    Folsom Short Range Transit Plan Update Project Appendix G .1 Public Comments Summary BUS SERVICE Commuter Feeder Service to Folsom Light Rail Stations Feeder bus essential for Folsom residents to take advantage of light rail; should run all day. Need fast, quick feeders to/from light rail during peak commuter hours only . Local feeder routes need to be within walking distance of residences, not just businesses. Draft bus service plan seems to cater to commercial traffic much more than commuters . Why can't the commuter public be covered during peak time (i.e ., 6 AM - 7 :30 PM & 4 PM - 5 :30 PM) and commercial traffic off-peak. Consider different routes for commuters (5am - 9 am, 3pm - 7pm) than for in-town customers (run all day). Commute routes should be designed to serve largest neighborhood populations possible and travel quickly to L.R. stations . Daytime in-town routes would serve major retail, city hall, college, etc. Early a.m. pick up (bus stop) at East Natoma & Briggs Ranch to light rail to get me to work by 6:30 a.m. Maintain service on Folsom-Auburn Road from Folsom Dam Road and provide feeder service to Historic Folsom light rail station. Add a peak-only loop up Folsom-Auburn, Oak Avenue Parkway, American River Canyon, Greenback, right on Folsom-Auburn, up unused center lane ramp to the Historic Folsom light rail station. Residents in Orangevale seemed to get better service even though they already have current RT service ; RT and Folsom could make arrangements so Folsom would no longer have to loop out to Madison/Main (e .g.
