STRATEGIC PLAN 2019-2023 TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 3 RITBA Overview 4 Strategic Goals 5 Our Plan 6 Innovation 7 Excellence in Fiscal Management 8 Leadership 9 About RITBA 10 INTRODUCTION A strategic planning process was initiated to chart a course for the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority to plan for the future. With our mission statement as a foundation, we solicited feedback from stakeholders represented by local and state elected officials, organization leaders in the communities adjacent to our assets, and customers in our E-ZPass Customer Service Center. This helped us identify four key strategic goals: Safety and Security, Innovation, Excellence in Fiscal Management, and Leadership. Senior staff at the Authority have developed objectives and strategies to better define how each key goal will be achieved. The Strategic Plan willwork in collaboration with the Authority’s current 10 Year Renewal and Replacement Plan, which guides capital expenditures for physical assets. Both will continue to evolve as goals are reached and future evaluations present new opportunities and challenges. Strategic Plan 2019-2023 | Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority 3 RITBA OVERVIEW HISTORY The Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority (the “Authority”) was created by the Rhode Island General Assembly in 1954 by passage of the Authority’s enabling act, codified in Rhode Island General Laws § 24-12-1, et seq.

Ritba) Revenue and Management Authority to the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (Ridot)
TOWN OF PORTSMOUTH, RI RESOLUTION #2020-xx-xx RESOLUTION OPPOSING TRANSFER OF RI TURNPIKE AND BRIDGE AUTHORITY (RITBA) REVENUE AND MANAGEMENT AUTHORITY TO THE RHODE ISLAND DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION (RIDOT) WHEREAS, the Rhode Island Turnpike and Bridge Authority (RITBA) collects and uses dedicated revenue to operate and maintain the Mount Hope Bridge, the Jamestown Verrazzano Bridge, Route 138 through Jamestown, the Newport Pell Bridge, and the Sakonnet River Bridge; and WHEREAS, RITBA has been keeping the four largest bridges in the state safe for vehicular travel and maintained in sound condition, e.g., has received honors from the International Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike Association; and WHEREAS, in comparison, the Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) owns and maintains all the state’s secondary bridges and in 2019, RI was deemed to have the worst bridges in America by the American Road and Transportation Builders Association, i.e., out of 780 bridges, 23.1% were structurally deficient and 721, or 92%, were in need of some repair; and WHEREAS, proposed Rhode Island state legislation or provisions in the state budget may move RITBA revenues and management authority over the four major bridges to RIDOT; and WHEREAS, RIDOT will likely redirect RITBA revenues from the maintenance of the four bridges towards bridges elsewhere in the state that have not been properly maintained and are in much poorer condition; and WHEREAS, although the state ranking of its bridges will likely be improved by including RITBA’s far better maintained bridges in ranking analyses, RITBA’s four bridges will likely suffer from deferred maintenance due to redirected funds.

Draft – July 02, 2019 PORTSMOUTH COMPREHENSIVE COMMUNITY PLAN ELEMENT 10 -TRANSPORTATION 10.1 TRANSPORTATION VISION PORTSMOUTH WILL ENJOY A SAFE, EFFICIENT AND WELL-MAINTAINED MULTI-MODAL TRANSPORTATION NETWORK THAT INCREASES MOBILITY FOR ALL RESIDENTS, SUPPORTS THE GROWTH OF BUSINESS ACTIVITY, REDUCES NEGATIVE IMPACTS ON THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT, AND ENHANCES THE CHARACTER AND QUALITY OF LIFE OF THE COMMUNITY. 10.2 INTRODUCTION The term transportation refers to the movement of people and goods from place to place. To accomplish this movement, the State, its municipalities and private enterprise have developed and maintain a network of facilities and infrastructure that accommodates multiple modes of travel, including streets and roadways, sidewalks, bike paths and travel lanes, bus stops and route corridors, ferry lines and rail service, all at a scale appropriate to each community. Maintaining safe and efficient access to this transportation network by all parties and at all levels is essential to the economic vitality and quality of life of Portsmouth. The Town’s transportation element focuses on: • Aligning transportation goals with other aspects of the plan such as land use, economic development and housing. • Considering the varying transportation needs of all community members. • Mitigating the public health and safety impacts of our current and future transportation network. We accomplish this using three general approaches: • Effective management and maintenance of our town-owned roadway network. (See Transportation Goal 1.) • Coordination and cooperation with the State in the management and maintenance of their roadway network within our community. (See Transportation Goal 2.) • Establishing a well-balanced multi-modal transportation network for the varying needs of all our residents.

Portsmouth, Rhode Island: a Preliminary Report
Historic èrnd Architectural Resources of Portsmouth, Rhode Island: A Preliminary Report *0 -I - ,‘ -,-. - -p-- STATE OF RHODE ISLAND AND PROVIDENCE PLANTATIONS PRELIMINARY SURVEY REPORT TOWN OF PORTSMOUTH JANUARY 1979 RHODE ISLAND HISTORICAL PRESERVATION COMMISSION 150 BENEFIT STREET, PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND 02903 It .ntry post and gate along East Main Road; Southeast Rural Estate Historic District. Map #6 -A PREFACE The Rhode Island Historical Preservation Commission, established by the General Assembly in 1968, is charged with the responsibility of safeguarding Rhode Island’s cultural heritage. In order to provide an overview of the physical record of this heritage, the Commission has initiated a "broadbrush" or preliminary planning survey of the rural and suburban towns of the state. The purpose of this initial inventory is to identify and record properties of historic and archi tectural significance in each town. Presently, archeological resources are treated through a separate survey effort being conducted by the Commission. The preliminary surveys provide a catalogue of nonrenew able cultural resources which is needed for a variety of planning purposes at the local, state and national levels. They identify sites, districts and structures eligible for nomination to the National Register of Historic Places and they become the basis for establishing historical preservatiob priorities based on problems and potentials discovered as part of the survey process. The preliminary survey is accomplished by driving all public rights-of-way in a given town and noting on large-scale United States Geological Survey maps or other maps that may be more appropriate each building or site of particular architectural, visual, cultural or historic significatice.

(Max. Energy 89.3 Ton.M) BRUCE HAMMER SUCCESS STORY
BRUCE HAMMER SUCCESS STORY, BRIDGE PILING Model SGH-4719 Pile Hammer (Max. Energy 89.3 ton.m) The Bruce SGH-4719 successfully completed the pile driving of Sakonnet River Bridge at RI, USA By Portsmouth Patch (www.patch.com), August 27, 2010 Government RI DOT : Pile Driving Completed at Sakonnet River Bridge Project The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (DOT) announced Thursday that it has concluded pile driving operations on the Sakonnet River Bridge project in Tiverton and Portsmouth. The last round of pile driving concluded on Tuesday, and positive test results available Thursday on the success of that operation means that the department can conclude this phase of the bridge project. "We appreciate the patience of the residents and business owners near the bridge and apologize for the noise and disruption the pile driving operations caused," DOT Director Michael P. Lewis said. "We are excited to reach this milestone thanks to the efforts of our contractor, Cardi Corp., as we continue replacing this valuable transportation link to Aquidneck Island." The DOT broke ground on the bridge replacement project in April 2009. The $163.7 million contract with Cardi Corp. for the construction of the new bridge is the largest single contract in DOT's history. The department anticipates the new bridge to be open to traffic in spring 2012; however, the contract with Cardi Corp. includes an early incentive clause which could result in the bridge opening to traffic earlier. BRUCE HAMMER SUCCESS STORY, BRIDGE PILING Model SGH-4719 Pile Hammer (Max. Energy 89.3 ton.m) Pile driving was necessary to set large steel piles into the river bottom.
