A Long Range Transportation Plan for

Siouxland Regional Transportation Planning Association

Completed by the Siouxland Interstate Metropolitan Planning Council (SIMPCO)

Chapter 7:

Implementing the Plan

Draft

VII-1

I. Overview

This Long Range Transportation Plan chapter is developed to identify projects in a twenty year

horizon. The first years of the plan, what is currently programmed in the Transportation

Improvement Program, demonstrate “fiscal constraint” as shown in Table VII.1. In Tables VII.4

and VII.5, projects in the outer years of the Long Range Transportation Plan are listed. These

projects listed in the outer years do not show “fiscal constraint” due to unforeseen changes in the

future.

On July 6, 2012, the President signed into law the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century

Act (MAP-21) which was the first multi-year transportation authorization enacted since 2005,

funded surface transportation programs at over $105 billion for fiscal years 2013 and 2014, and

transformed the framework for investments to guide the growth and development of the

country’s vital transportation infrastructure. The creation of MAP-21 restructured core highway

formula programs in an effort to streamline the funding process. MAP-21 eliminated most

current discretional programs but many of the eligibilities are covered under other programs.

The money is divided into different programs from which jurisdictions can apply for funding to

complete projects. The 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan must outline the different funding

sources and expected amounts available to fund the transportation projects included in this

chapter. For the purposes of the 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan, some general financial

forecasting procedures have been produced. It is assumed throughout this chapter the

restructured transportation programs will continue to be the available funding sources in the

foreseeable future. In addition, any projected revenues are based upon FY 2015 dollars.

A. Available Federal Revenue Sources

The following is a description of the various federal programs and funding sources available to

the Region IV:

1. National Highway Performance Program (NHPP)

The purpose of the National Highway Performance Program is to provide support for the

condition and performance of the National Highway System (NHS), to provide support for the

construction of new facilities on the NHS, and to ensure that investments of Federal-aid funds in

highway construction are directed to support progress toward the achievement of performance

targets established in a State’s asset management plan for the NHS.

2. Surface Transportation Program (STP)

The Surface Transportation Program provides flexible funding that may be used by States and

localities for projects to preserve and improve the conditions and performance on any Federal –

aid highway, bridge and tunnel projects on any public road, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure,

and transit capital projects. SAFETEA-LU expanded and MAP-21 continued eligibilities to

include advanced truck stop electrifications systems; high accident/high congestion intersections;

environmental restoration and pollution abatement; control of noxious weeds and aquatic

noxious weeds; and establishment of native species. Funds are distributed based on each state’s

lane miles of Federal-aid highway; total vehicle-miles traveled on those federal-aid highways,

and estimated contributions to the Highway Account of the Highway Trust Fund.

3. Highway Bridge Replacement (STP set-aside)

MAP-21 did not re-establish the Highway Bridge Program (HSP) which provided funding for

bridge reconstruction or rehabilitation projects. However, such projects are eligible for STP

funding. Often referred to as the HBP-STP program, provides Federal-aid participation for

qualifying projects at a reimbursement rate of 80% of eligible costs. In Iowa, the HBP-STP

allocation is divided each fiscal year with 78% for counties and 21% for incorporated cities.

4. Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Improvement (CMAQ)

MAP-21 continues the CMAQ program. Funds can be used for public transit improvements,

travel demand management strategies, traffic improvements, and public fleet conversions to

Draft

VII-3

cleaner fuel. The funds are distributed based on a formula that considers an area’s population by

county and the severity of its air quality problems within the non-attainment or maintenance

areas. These funds can only be spent in a county designated as maintenance or non-attainment

area. If there is not a non-attainment area within the state, the state can utilize the money for

projects that reduce emissions, such as the Iowa Clean Air Attainment Program (ICAAP).

5. Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)

MAP-21 continues the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) to achieve a significant

reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads, including non-State-owned

public roads on tribal lands. The HSIP requires a data-driven, strategic approach to improving

highway safety on all public roads that focuses on performance.

6. FTA Section 5305, 5339, 5329, 5310, and 5311 Programs

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) administers funds to state and local governments for

operation of and capital assistance for public transit activities. FTA Section 5305 capital funds

are intended to support transit planning in addition to what is conducted by the SRTPA. The

combined 5305 and 5311 planning funds are allocated among the state’s 18 RPAs based on half

of the funds being evenly distributed among the RPAs, 25 percent distributed on the basis of

population and 25 percent on the basis of the number of counties within the region.

FTA 5339 capital funds are discretionary funds and are for special projects. The annual amount

of funding under this program varies from year to year. Section 5339 funds can be used for the

acquisition of buses for fleet/service expansion, bus replacement, and bus related facilities such

as maintenance facilities, transfer facilities, terminals, computers, garage equipment, bus

rebuilds, and passenger shelters.

Section 5329 funds provide funding for safety of public transit. MAP-21 grants FTA the

authority to establish and enforce a new comprehensive framework to oversee the safety of

public transportation throughout the United States. FTA will implement the new law in

consultation with the transit community and the U.S. DOT Transit Rail Advisory Committee for

Safety (TRACS).

Draft

VII-4

Section 5310 provides formula funding to increase the mobility of seniors and persons with

disabilities. Funds are apportioned based on each State’s share of the transportation populations

and are not apportioned to both States and large urban areas. This program now includes the

former New Freedom (5317) program. Activities eligible under New Freedom including grants

for services for individuals with disabilities that went above and beyond the requirements of the

ADA, are now eligible under the 5310 program. Projects selected for funding must be included

in a locally developed, coordinated public transit-human services transportation plan.

Section 5311 funds provide formula funding to states for the purpose of supporting public

transportation in areas less than 50,000 populations. It is apportioned in proportion to each

state’s non-urbanized population. Funds may be used for capital, operating, state administration,

and project administration expenses. Section 5311(f) sets aside a minimum of 15 percent of each

year’s non-urbanized formula funds allocated to Iowa under the 5311 program to support

intercity bus service in rural and small urban areas.

7. Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP)

The Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP) provides funding for programs and projects

defined as transportation alternatives, including on- and off-road pedestrian and bicycle facilities,

infrastructure projects for improving non-driver access to public transportation and enhanced

mobility, community improvement activities, and environmental mitigation; recreational trails

program projects; safe routes to school projects; and projects for planning, designing, or

constructing boulevards and other roadways largely in the right-of-way of former Interstate

System routes or other divided highways.

B. Available State Revenue Sources

1. Road Use Tax

This source of funding is utilized by Iowa to support transportation improvements throughout the

entire state. Part of the money maintained by Iowa is used for ongoing maintenance and

operations of the transportation system and to support intra-city bus system improvements and

new highway construction.

Draft

VII-5

2. Transit Funding

Iowa DOT provides funds for capital and operating assistance to local public transit operations.

Iowa DOT also participates by providing matching funds for programs partially funded by FTA.

Iowa DOT will typically provide up to 50 percent of the non-federal share of capital grants. This

funding comes from the Road Use Tax.

3. Other State Funding

Other state funding programs which may be utilized during the development of the projects listed

in the 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan include: Intelligent Transportation System (ITS

Program); Aviation programs, Revitalize Iowa’s Sound Economy (RISE); Rail Programs;

Recreational Trails Programs; and safety programs

C. Available Local Revenue Sources

1. General Fund

The general fund of the local city or county is the primary source of operation and maintenance

funds. Money for capital investments on streets and highways may also come from the sale of

bonds.

2. Other Local Resources

Other Local funding resources which may be utilized during the development of the projects

listed in the 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan include: property taxes, fares or user fees, and

special taxes and assessments.

D. Proposed Transportation Projects FY 2015 – FY 2018

Table VII.1 is a listing of the proposed transportation projects out to FY 2014. This includes

proposed Surface Transportation Projects, National Highway Performance Program, Highway

Bridge Program-STP, State of Iowa Primary Road Fund, and Transportation Alternatives

Program. Table VII.2 illustrates the estimated transportation expenses for Transit during FY

2015 to FY 2018.

Draft

VII-6

1. STP/TAP Selection Process

Every year, SRTPA staff sends out applications for the STP and TAP programs, collects the

applications, and puts together a summary for discussion at the SRTPA Transportation Advisory

Committee. The projects are then discussed and selected as recommended projects to the

SRTPA Policy Board who ultimately make the decision as to which projects are funded. The

projects listed in Table VII.1 can be found in the current SRTPA Transportation Improvement

Program. It is also important to note that the numbers are in the 1,000’s.

It has been estimated the total cost of all listed roadway/highway/interstate/bridge projects out to

FY 2018 will total $143,832,000 while Transportation Alternative Program will total $584,000

out to FY 2018.

2. 2018 Financial Summary

Table VII.3 FY 2015 through FY 2018 Financial Summary shows Region IV’s transportation

finances for the first programmed years of the 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan. The table

illustrates the estimated transportation expenses from FY 2015 to FY 2018. The projections in

Table VII.3 assume that for the state of Iowa, the STP and the Transportation Alternatives

Program funds will remain close to the targets that have been estimated and disseminated by the

Iowa DOT. For the remaining revenue sources an average was determined over the ten year

period FY 2004 through FY 20014, and then the average number, remaining constant, projected

out to 2018 as seen in Table VII.3. It is important to note that these numbers do not include

economic stimulus money that was received in 2009, or extraneous projects, such as the Le Mars

Bypass. These numbers are to instead to show the typical revenues that RPA IV could expect to

receive over the FY 2015 – FY 2018.

E. Proposed Transportation Projects FY 2019 – FY 2040

Tables VII.4 and VII.5 are a listing of the proposed projects from FY 2019 to FY 2040. This

includes proposed Surface Transportation Projects, National Highway Performance Program,

Highway Bridge Program, Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Program, Iowa’s Clean Air

Attainment Program, Intelligent Transportation System, Federal Aid Highway/Rail Fund,

Highway Safety Improvement Program, and Transportation Alternatives Program. Tables VII.6

and VII.7 illustrate the estimated transportation expenses for Transit during FY 2019-2029 and

FY 2030-2040.

Projects were selected by members of the SRTPA TAC committee based on priorities

1. Fiscal Years 2019-2040 Financial Summary

Tables VII.4 and VII.5 FY 2019 through FY 2040 Financial Summary show the Siouxland

Regional Transportation Planning Association transportation finances for the years 5-25 of the

2040 Long Range Transportation Plan. Projections were not made for the funding sources in

these tables due to unforeseen changes in the future. With the passage of MAP-21, funding

sources were streamlined and future updates to the Long Range Transportation Plan should

evaluate any additional changes in programming and funding sources. Maps showing FY 2019 to

FY 2040 projects by county can be found in the appendix.

F. Long Term Transportation Policies and Major Plans

1. U.S. 20 – Iowa DOT

A general consensus throughout the region is to upgrade U.S. 20 to a four-lane highway (refer to

Chapter Six: Future Regional Transportation Threats, Solutions, and Alternatives). The Iowa

DOT continues to work on improvements to U.S. 20 in Woodbury, Ida, and Sac Counties. In

2010, four-landed U.S. 20 was opened from Moorland to Rockwell City and in 2012 from

Rockwell City to Early in Sac County. Traffic counts continue to grow on the new roadway from

an average daily traffic count of 3,578 in 2011 to 4,745 in 2013 in Rockwell City. In June 2014

the Iowa DOT Commission passed a five-year plan that continues to expand U.S. 20 to four

lanes from Correctionville to Moville by 2018. However, funding has not been programmed for

U.S. 20 in FY 2019. Once the 12-mile Correctionville-Moville section is complete, there will be

twenty-nine (29) miles of the 300-mile highway that will remain as a two-lane road.

In Table VIII.1 the funding requested from the Iowa DOT for the U.S. 20 expansion is out of the

National Highway Performance Program. The Iowa DOT is seeking funding for Ida County in

the FY 2015 – FY 2024 for 18 miles of new pavement/expansion to complete U.S. 20 from the

Woodbury County Line to Sac County Line at a total cost of $280,000,000. The Iowa DOT is

also seeking funding for Woodbury County in FY 2015 – FY 2024 for 17 miles of

rehabilitation/expansion to complete U.S. 20 from 3.5 miles East of Moville to the Ida County

Line at a total cost of $128,000,000. Shown in Table VIII.3, the Iowa DOT also included an

illustrative project for U.S. 20 in Ida County from the Woodbury County Line to Sac County

Line to do rehabilitation work for a total cost of $8,800,000.

2. Preservation

The main goal for Region IV is to preserve the existing transportation network. Funding is the

most significant influence regarding transportation projects in the area. A shortfall of funding

over the years makes it extremely difficult to plan for projects six to 25 years out. The tables

above illustrate the needs of the area mainly to preserve the transportation network that is already

in place. Rehabilitation, replacement, resurfacing, and overlay projects are overwhelmingly

apparent throughout this chapter.

3. Ida Grove West Access

In 1965, the City of Ida Grove identified through their comprehensive planning process, the need

for a West Access to alleviate traffic from their downtown streets. In 1965 and again in 1978,

the concept was discussed but the project was never started. Ida Grove then updated their

Comprehensive Plan again in 2004 and listed the West Access as a project that would provide

new access, improve traffic flow, and improve safety in Ida Grove. Currently the City of Ida

Grove is seeking funding to complete this project.

G. Regional Update

The Long Range Transportation Plan will undergo some major and minor changes when it will

be updated in five years. Some factors to account for in the FY 2045 update is new

transportation legislation and updated ACS estimates. These could have an impact on the

demographics, funding, opportunities, threats, solutions, and projects. Feedback and changes to

the Long Range Transportation Plan will be obtained from the public, natural resource agencies,

historic/cultural agencies, Iowa Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration,

Federal Transit Administration, and through the SRTPA Technical Advisory Committee and

Policy Board for the FY 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan update.

H. Modal Plans and Special Studies

SRTPA staff will assist with any modal plans and/or special studies that will be undertaken

within Region IV in the future.

1. Lewis and Clark Multi- Use Trail Planning Study

SIMPCO/SRTPA was a member of both the Project Committee and the Steering Committee

Organization for the Lewis and Clark Multi- Use Trail Planning Study. The project in Iowa

would run from the Sioux City Metropolitan Planning Area south to the Iowa/Missouri border.

The study was completed and can be found at: http://www.iowadot.gov/lewisClarkTrail/plan.htm

1. Floyd River Valley Trail Study

SRTPA staff drafted a feasibility study evaluating a transportation link for bicycle and pedestrian

travel between the communities of Sioux City and Le Mars, Iowa. The development of the

feasibility study came from interest and a desire for a regional connection for bicycle and

pedestrian users. The feasibility study outlined three possible routes. The Today Route focuses

on routes that are currently being used by cyclists in the region and could be implemented by

placing up signage. The Main Line Route identifies a possible route that is a separated trail that

generally sits within the US 75 right-of-way and utilizes a portion of Iowa DOT owned

abandoned rail line. The Scenic Trail Route identifies the desire of the general public to have a

more scenic option. Any Scenic Trail route options would have to work with individuals, the

Army Corps, or various other groups that may allow access to scenic areas or to develop trail

loops. The Floyd River Valley Trail Committee continues to meet regularly and is currently

researching the development of a Trail Association to fundraise, construct, and maintain a future

trail system.

I. Public Participation Goals and Objectives

As stated in the Public Participation Plan, during the draft development phase, the SRTPA staff

develops a document with input from interested state and local parties. Some of these

organizations include but are not restricted to: concerned citizens, natural resource agencies,

cultural/historic agencies, the media, and numerous others. These goals and objectives were

formed using the guidelines of the Public Participation Plan for the Long Range Transportation

Plan.

1. Goal 1: Early and Continuing Opportunities for Public Involvement

Goal Objectives:

Send out mailings to notify individuals and groups that the plan is being

developed and they can contact SRTPA staff to learn more about the Long

Range Transportation planning process

Send out press releases describing recent project developments and public

involvement opportunities to the various regional media

Maintain a web home page (www.simpco.org) with planning

recommendations and documents with a comment form and e-mail access

2. Goal 2: Adequate time for public review and comment at important decision

points of the Long Range Transportation Plan Update.

Goal Objectives:

Allow a 30 day comment period before final approval of the Long Range

Transportation Plan

Provide SRTPA staff contact information including phone number, fax

number, address, and email on all public notices, mailings and web page

http://www.simpco.org/

3. Goal 3: Develop public support for planning recommendations and

documents.

Goal Objectives:

Demonstrate results of public involvement influences of past projects

Publish public comments in adopted planning recommendations and

documents

J. Public Involvement and Results

Chapter Six – Future Regional Transportation Threats, Solutions, and Alternatives was largely

based on the information received from county engineers and surveys gathered from the public,

natural resources agencies, cultural/historic agencies, and other interested parties during the last

Long Range Transportation Plan update. The results were used as a starting point in reevaluating

the chapter.

II. Summary

It is understood planning is an ongoing and dynamic activity and thus rapid adaptability to

change is a requirement. The SRTPA 2040 Long Range Transportation Plan is a working

document and will be updated and revised as various local, regional, state, and national

characteristics, factors, and requirements change, which ultimately affect the transportation

network in and around Region IV. It is therefore expected SRTPA will promptly comply and

participate in modal plans and special studies that may arise throughout Region IV and to update

the Long Range Transportation Plan in five years.

The Siouxland Regional Transportation Planning Association has developed the 2040 Long

Range Transportation Plan utilizing cooperative involvement of various local, regional, state, and

federal transportation organizations. The plan expresses the SRTPA objectives for achieving

Draft

VII-30

efficient transportation systems in Region IV. The document will enable the transportation

interests in Region IV to utilize it as a guide for future transportation planning and programming.

This LRTP will be used as a means of identifying areas of need and developing a means of

addressing such. It is also the intent of the document to allow for citizen participation and the

needs of the various transportation interest of Region IV.

It is not expected that every project in this chapter will be completed due to funding shortfalls or

occurrence of other project importance. This chapter is to serve as a guide for the type of needs

within Region IV.
