Florida Department of Transportation RICK SCOTT 2198 Edison Avenue ANANTH PRASAD, P.E. GOVERNOR Jacksonville, FL 32204 SECRETARY Transmitted Electronically July 23, 2014 RE: FDOT Courtesy Review - Draft Ocean Highway and Port Authority and Port of Fernandina Master Plan Update Introduction The Florida Department of Transportation received the Draft Ocean Highway and Port Authority and Port of Fernandina Master Plan Update June 23, 2014. The following are the FDOT Courtesy Review comments. We look forward to reviewing the final Master Plan in the future. The comments offered are suggested revisions and recommendations that are to be included before an adoption into the City of Fernandina Comprehensive Plan. Previously we provided the Master Plan Consultant comments related to grammar and wording in the document. These editorial comments are not included in this courtesy review letter as they are not substantive changes. Overall, the Draft Master Plan addresses the requirements set forth for port strategic plans under F.S. 311.14 (2). FDOT Comments Tables • Page ES-12 shows the Phase 3 Site Layout. The narrative to explain Phase 3 is lacking or needs clarification. • Table 6.1-3 (page 6-13) PM Peak hour Roadway Level of Service Conditions): o Segment Column: Roadway segments should match FDOT LOS report or where there are significant changes in volume or changes in the number of thru lanes. o 2023 Peak Volume Column: The standardized “K” factor should be used when converting AADT to peak hour. What “K’ factor was used to convert AADT to peak hour? In addition, traffic volumes should be averaged when there are more than one count stations within a segment. o PM Peak Hour Capacity: Agree with I-95 capacity. PM Peak hour Capacity should match FDOT LOS report consistent with the FDOT Generalized Tables. o Link Status Column: Revise to reflect changes in segmentation, volumes, and capacity. o Please add a facility type column. 1 www.dot.state.fl.us • Table 6.1-4(page 6-16) Planned and Programmed Transportation improvements Please amend to include information from the FDOT Adopted Work Program 2014/2015- 2018/2019 that was adopted on July 1, 2014. Please change the Port of Fernandina Dredging project from PD&E to CAP. Also, change the Chester Road widening project from fiscal year 2017 to 2018. • Table 6.1-5 through 10 (page 6-17 to 6-31): Revise tables consistent with revisions to Table 6.1-3. Map ID 48 should be calculated as an Uninterrupted Highway with an MSV of 5,900. • Table 6.1-12 and Table 6.1-13: Please clarify if these tables include Port of Fernandina Traffic and Programmed Improvements. Trucks The Draft Master Plan analysis uses an equivalency of 1.5 cars per truck (Table 6.1-8). HCM methodology utilizes an equivalency of 2.5 cars per truck. The daily trucks should be estimated at 1,508, not 905. Total new daily trips should be 1,711. Based on a peak hour factor of 9 percent, the estimated new peak hour traffic from the port should be 154 vehicles, not 87 as reported. The Draft Master Plan capacity analysis included estimated background traffic and the estimated new port traffic. Several of the surrounding facilities utilize trucks and are listed with their potential growth in the master plan. These estimates were not added into the capacity analysis. While it can be assumed that some of the traffic is in the background estimation, no analysis was offered to show that the potential growth of the other truck generators (detailed in the master plan) is less than the 1 percent growth rate used to estimate background traffic in the Draft Master Plan analysis. In addition, the 1 percent growth rate is not adjusted for the trucks estimated by the Draft Master Plan from the surrounding industries. Traffic Analysis The Draft Master Plan also identifies ‘critical intersections’, none of which are in the connecting section from the port to the east / west SR 200 section. Analysis (HCM, Synchro, etc) should have been performed on the roadway links connecting the port to the east / west SR 200 section. That analysis would have shown that intersections on this truck route will degrade. Table-based capacity analysis does not offer a definitive analysis of capacity or operations where trucks are a large part of the traffic stream. The Draft Master Plan conclusion does not indicate any future problems with roadway links connecting the port to the east west section of SR 200. It does, however, indicate problems with the east/west section of SR 200. This would appear counterintuitive given that the roadways connecting the port to the east/west section of SR 200 are 2 and 4-lane roadways with 30 MPH speed limits. The transportation issue with the increased traffic from the port will be the connection from the port to the east/west SR 200 section. If the report had looked at future operations along the 2 www.dot.state.fl.us connection corridor from the port to the east / west SR 200 section, then the focus may have shifted to a plan to improve this connection. The plan should look at other possible connection alternatives such as widening 8th Street, new routes, etc. The report did not look at this because the assumptions about future traffic and operations on the connector links are inadequate. Recommendation The Port of Fernandina is an Emerging Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) Seaport, and connects to a SIS Waterway. This Port has access to a SIS Highway Connector and SR A1A/200 is a SIS Highway Corridor. These are facilities of state importance and should be included in the Master Plan Update. Attached is a SIS Map that will assist in the revisions of the Master Plan Update. FDOT recommends that the documentation be revised to sufficiently address discrepancies in the transportation analyses. To identify potential solutions and action plan to the transportation issues facing the Port in the future, FDOT offers additional assistance and consideration with consultation with both the Port and FDOT, in providing alternative solutions. FDOT looks forward to assisting and forming additional partnerships to advance the economic growth of both the City and the Port.

    INVESTING IN Program Highlights | 2016 1 INVESTING IN The SIS n 2003, the Florida Legislature and Governor established the Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) to enhance Florida’s transportation mobility and Ieconomic competitiveness. The SIS is a statewide network of high-priority transportation facilities, including the State’s largest and most significant WHAT IS THE airports, spaceports, deep-water seaports, freight rail terminals, passenger rail and intercity bus terminals, rail corridors, waterways and highways. These facilities represent the state’s primary means for moving people and freight between Florida’s diverse regions, as well as between Florida and other states STRATEGIC and nations. SIS Facilities are designated through the use of objective criteria and thresholds based on quantitative measures of transportation and economic activity. These facilities meet high levels of people and goods movement and INTERMODAL generally support major flows of interregional, interstate, and international travel and commerce. Facilities that do not yet meet the established criteria and thresholds for SIS designation, but are expected to in the future are referred to as Emerging SIS. These facilities experience lower levels of people SYSTEM? and goods movement but demonstrate strong potential for future growth and development. The designated SIS and Emerging SIS includes 17 commercial service airports, two spaceports, 12 public seaports, over 2,300 miles of rail corridors, over 2,200 miles of waterways, 34 passenger terminals, seven rail freight terminals, and over 4,600 miles of highways. These hubs, corridors and connectors are the fundamental structure which satisfies the transportation needs of travelers and visitors, supports the movement of freight, and provides transportation links to external markets.

    The Florida Rail System Plan: Investment Element prepared for the Florida Department of Transportation prepared by Cambridge Systematics, Inc. With support from Planning Innovations, Inc Quandel Consultants December 2010 Florida Department of Transportation CHARLIE CRIST " STEPHANIE C. KOPELOUSOS 605 Suwannee Street GOVERNOR Tallahassee, FL 32399-0450 SECRETARY December 14, 2010 Citizens of Florida: I am pleased to submit to you the Investment Element of the 2010 Florida Rail System Plan. Unlike in past years, where the Florida Rail System Plan was more descriptive of the separate freight and passenger rail systems, this plan is more visionary, strategic, and policy-driven. The plan was guided by a broad base of stakeholders, including the Rail Stakeholder Advisory Committee, members of the public and private sectors, modes of transportation, economic development and environmental interests, and citizen representatives. The Committee and others worked throughout the summer and fall of 2009 to develop an inventory of Florida's rail system needs and recommend priority investments that support the strategic goals, objectives, and policies of the Florida Rail System Plan. The Florida Rail System Plan is comprised of a Policy Element and this document, the Investment Element. The Policy Element provides a broad policy framework for the investment of limited state resources in Florida's rail system. The Investment Element builds upon the framework of the Policy Element by identifying the needs of Florida's rail system, establishing priorities for the investment of state funds, and setting forth future action steps necessary to implement the plan. Florida in the year 2030 will be shaped by the actions, decisions, and policy choices made today.

    2018 Update of Tables and Figures

    2018 Update of Tables and Figures August 2019 INTRODUCTION This document provides an update to the majority of data tables and figures provided in the Florida Department of Transportation’s (FDOT) 2015 Florida Seaport System Plan. The annual updating of seaport system plan data allows FDOT to: implement the plan using the latest industry metrics; provide analysis of long-term trends; and, provide a foundation for future five-year plan updates. The information collected for this update are the 2018 seaport metrics including the number of containers in twenty-foot equivalent units (TEUs), cargo tonnages, total number of revenue cruise passengers, and several other items. The primary source of the data is the individual Florida Seaports and the Florida Seaport Five-Year Mission Plans. In addition, some of the data comes from official government sources. Maintaining this data on an annual basis will lay the foundation of information necessary for the 2020 Florida Seaport Plan to build upon. The purpose statement and vision of the 2015 plan are restated below. The updated Figures and Tables follow. It should be noted, not all tables and figures in the 2015 plan were updated as: some data sources are not updated annually; some source data has not been updated; or, the 2015 data is still up to date. STATEMENT OF PURPOSE This 2015 Florida Seaport System Plan was prepared in accordance with the statutory requirements of Section 311.14(1), Florida Statutes (F.S.). The development of this plan, along with other modal plans developed under the Freight, Logistics, and Passenger Operations (FLP) Office at the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), provides the Department with a cohesive planning process for all the modal offices.

The massive 2,974-passenger Carnival Liberty cruise ship was docked and prepping for its next voyage. Cargo trucks were loading and unloading products headed inland. And — rarest of them all — a SpaceX rocket booster was being moved onto land from a barge, to be repaired and readied for its next mission launch. JIM CARCHIDI That’s all exciting and new for port visitors. But it was just another day in the office for Capt. John Murray, the port’s CEO and a licensed U.S. Coast Guard captain. It’s been a year and a half since Murray assumed the helm of Port Canaveral in January 2016. Murray replaced former port CEO John Walsh, who agreed on Sept. 23, 2015, to resign after making some controversial comments to Cape Canaveral locals. But even before Murray took over, Port Canaveral’s business portfolio was booming, leading to this year’s estimated revenue of nearly $100 million. Most of that revenue — more than $61 million from wharf and docking operations — comes from cargo, cruise ships and other uses from clients like SpaceX that have facilities at the port. In addition, the port plans to begin construction in late summer 2018 on the $150 million Cruise Terminal 3 that’s set to be completed by 2019.
