    Competitive Programs

    DVRPC FY2017 TIP FOR PENNSYLVANIA CHAPTER 7: COMPETITIVE PROGRAMS This section contains lists of projects that have been awarded via regional or statewide competitive programs, which are open to a specialized segment of the public. As projects move through the delivery pipeline, they may or may not show up in the active TIP project listings, but are important to the DVRPC region for demonstrating investments in particular types of infrastructure and potential fund sources. REGIONAL COMPETITIVE PROGRAMS Competitive Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) Program – DVRPC periodically sets aside a specific amount of CMAQ funds for a DVRPC Competitive CMAQ Program (see MPMS #48201), which seeks transportation-related projects that can help the region reduce emissions from mobile sources and meet the National Clean Air Act Standards. CMAQ-eligible projects will demonstrably reduce air pollution emissions and, in many cases, reduce traffic congestion. Projects may be submitted by a public agency or a public-private partnership. A Subcommittee of the DVRPC Regional Technical Committee (RTC) evaluates the projects and makes recommendations to the DVRPC Board for final selection. In July 2016, the DVRPC Board approved the most recent round of the DVRPC Competitive CMAQ Program by selecting 17 projects for funding in the DVRPC Pennsylvania counties, for a total CMAQ award of $21,900,000. For more information, see www.dvrpc.org/CMAQ/ Regional Trails Program (Phases 1-4) – The Regional Trails Program, administered by the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission, with funding from the William Penn Foundation, aims to capitalize upon opportunities for trail development by providing funding for targeted, priority trail design, construction, and planning projects that will promote a truly connected, regional network of multiuse trails with Philadelphia and Camden as its hub.

  • Transportation Plan

    Transportation Plan

    CHAPTER EIGHT Transportation Plan Broadly defined, the transportation plan is a plan for the movement of people and goods throughout the township. More specifically, it documents township roadway classifications and traffic volumes, while providing recommendations on mitigating congestion and safety problems. It also examines alternative transportation modes such as public transit and pedestrian and bicycle pathways. With the degree to which the recommendations contained in this chapter are implemented, it would not only allow for the continued efficient flow of people and goods, but will also help to maintain and enhance the quality of life currently enjoyed in the township. This chapter is comprised of three main sections: roadways, public transit, and pedestrian/bicycle path- ways. Each section contains its own specific set of recommendations. Roadways The township’s original comprehensive plan of 1965 presents a bold, optimistic outlook on the future of Whitemarsh’s road network. Traffic congestion would be eliminated through the construction of new roads and bridges; expressways are envisioned bisecting the township and a bridge would provide a direct connec- tion to the Schuylkill Expressway. Hazardous intersections would be eliminated through improvements and realignments. An ambitious document, it is a reflection of a time when the answer to current woes was new construction that was bigger and therefore better. While the merits of new expressways and wider roads are still a debatable point, for the township it is moot. Despite the fact that this plan contained many valid ideas, most of the new roadway opportunities have been lost through subsequent development and a greater appre- ciation for older structures makes road widenings difficult.
