  • Five Year Capital Improvement Plan FY 2015 – FY 2019
    Exhibit A Sacramento Regional Transit District Five Year Capital Improvement Plan FY 2015 – FY 2019 Page 1 of 40 Sacramento Regional Transit District Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (FY 2015 – FY 2019) Section I: Introduction Overview The Five Year Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) represents the culmination of RT’s efforts to strategically plan and prioritize capital activities from FY 2015 to FY 2019. The projects in the CIP are consistent with RT’s adopted Vision, Strategic Plan, and with the region’s currently approved Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Plan (MTIP). The plan places an emphasis on ensuring safety, regulatory compliance, a “state of good repair” for RT’s current assets; completing transit expansion projects identified in Measure A Renewal; and providing for modest system enhancement/improvement projects – particularly projects that significantly enhance customer service or provide opportunities for greater system efficiency/revenue generation. In addition, this document provides early information for proposed projects beyond the five-year window. The CIP is intended to be a “living document”. On an annual basis, the plan will be reviewed, updated, and reissued in its entirety as one year drops and a new year is added. Projects were prioritized into five Tiers based on need and projected funding availability. Tiers include: Tier 0: These projects are fully funded. Tier I: These are high priority projects that are not fully funded. Tier II: RT would like to fund these projects in the CIP, but they are contingent upon adequate revenue being available. There are limitations associated with the various revenue sources available to RT, and this could impact RT’s ability to move Tier II projects forward.

  • Call for Projects: MTP/SCS and MTIP Update
    January 26, 2018 To: Local Public Works and Department of Transportation Staff From: James Corless, CEO Clint Holtzen, MTP/SCS Project Manager José Luis Cáceres, Analyst Subject: DUE 3/23: Call for Project Review – 2020 MTP/SCS Update & 2019-22 MTIP Thank you for your participation in our regional planning efforts. This memo requests your local agency input for transportation projects that will be considered in the 2020 update of the Metropolitan Transportation Plan/Sustainable Communities Strategy (MTP/SCS) and the 2019- 22 Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program (MTIP). The MTP/SCS and the MTIP are complementary projects that represent two major work efforts for SACOG in our role as the MPO for the six-county region. Where the MTP/SCS is the long- range transportation planning document for the six-county SACOG region with an outlook of 20 years, the MTIP represents the near-term local and regional actions that execute the plan, with a program of projects that have committed funding over the next four to five years. The MTP/SCS and MTIP are important for demonstrating that the region is meeting federal and state air quality standards, achieving greenhouse gas reductions, ensuring that transportation dollars continue to flow to the region, and keeping our projects competitive for grants and other special programs. In addition, these efforts allow the region to take a cooperative, evidence-based approach for investing in transportation projects and programs that provide the most benefit with the limited resources at our disposal. An Economic Prosperity theme for the 2020 MTP/SCS The 2020 MTP/SCS will place a strong emphasis on transportation projects, programs and policies that will contribute to an economically prosperous region.
