  • Section 6. the Transportation Plan
    2035 Transportation and Development Plan for Southwestern Pennsylvania June 2007 Section 6. The Transportation Plan Like the areas it covers, the needs and opportunities identified in the 2035 Plan are diverse – economic development projects, highways and bridges, transit facilities and operations, and related infrastructure - and must be implemented by an equally diverse collection of public and private agencies. Responsibility for providing funding varies according to the investment type and is shared among multiple taxing authorities and private funding mechanisms. Depending upon the type of infrastructure need, the financial plan for the 2035 Plan identifies the potential funding sources and expectations for funding that are currently known to be available. Where the funding does not adequately address identified needs, the financial plan discusses how the region might achieve the desired funding commitments and identifying possible funding sources. Transportation Financial Plan For public investment in transportation, the 2035 Plan includes a transportation financial plan, which is required by federal and state agencies before public monies can be spent on maintaining and operating the transportation system or making system improvements. Federal funding is under the authority of SAFETEA-LU, the most recent federal transportation legislation, and must follow a prescribed set of rules overseen by the FHWA and FTA. PennDOT and SPC are the agencies responsible for managing the flow of federal transportation funding into the Southwestern Pennsylvania region. State monies are under the authority of the state legislature and are based on multiple state laws supervised and implemented through the State Transportation Commission, PennDOT and the Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (PTC). Every two years, as part of the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) update process, PennDOT issues official Transportation Program Financial guidance.
