Introduction Metropolitan and regional transportation planning organizations facilitate the coordinated planning and implementation of a seamless transportation system for all users. This effort requires cooperation and close collaboration among all entities involved in implementing, maintaining, and improving individual network segments.

In the Walla Walla Valley, this facilitation responsibility is assigned to the Walla Walla Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization and Sub-Regional Transportation Planning Organization (WWVMPO/SRTPO), which includes representation from Oregon and Washington State, Valley Transit, the Port of Walla Walla, as well as the cities and counties in the region.

Walla Walla Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization Established on March 27, 2013, the Walla Walla Valley Metropolitan Planning Organization (WWVMPO) is a bi-state transportation planning agency located in the Walla Walla Valley region. As the federally designated MPO for an urbanized area with a population greater than 50,000, the WWVMPO carries out the continuing, cooperative, and comprehensive (3C) multimodal transportation planning process that encourages and promotes the safe and efficient development, management, and operation of surface transportation systems to serve the mobility needs of people and freight, and to foster economic growth and development, while minimizing transportation-related fuel consumption and air pollution. (23 USC 134)

Federal regulations require the WWVMPO to develop a regionally coordinated long-range transportation plan and short-range improvement program to ensure consistency and efficient use of federal transportation funds. The MPO’s bi-state planning area, shown in the figure on Page 2, was expanded in early 2017 and includes the cities of College Place, Milton-Freewater, Prescott, Waitsburg, and Walla Walla, and portions of the counties of Umatilla and Walla Walla.

The majority of funding for the WWVMPO is provided through transportation planning grants from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal Transit Administration (FTA), administered and supported by the Oregon and Washington State Departments of Transportation (ODOT and WSDOT).

Walla Walla Sub-Regional Transportation Planning Organization The Walla Walla Sub-Regional Transportation Planning Organization (SRTPO) was created by an agreement, effective July 1, 2013, between the Benton-Franklin-Walla Walla Regional Transportation Planning Organization (RTPO) and the WWVMPO as a means to make regional planning efforts with the new MPO more efficient. The SRTPO boundary, also shown in the figure on Page 2, assigns almost all of Walla Walla County to the WWVMPO, as the area covered under the newly established SRTPO. The Burbank area, a small portion of western Walla Walla County, is by U.S. Census determination within the Kennewick-Pasco-Richland urbanized area. Therefore, this portion of Walla Walla County is part of the Benton-Franklin RTPO and MPO planning area.

The Walla Walla SRTPO activities comply with Washington State’s RTPO requirements (RCW 47.80), which call for transportation planning, at all jurisdictional levels, to be coordinated with local comprehensive plans in order to achieve both statewide and local transportation goals.

Instead of creating a separate Policy Board and Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) for the SRTPO, the WWVMPO chose to expand the current MPO Policy Board and TAC to include additional members. Agencies participating as members of the SRTPO include the MPO members in Washington State and representatives from the cities of Prescott and Waitsburg.

State funding for the SRTPO, appropriated through WSDOT, is used to carry out the regional transportation planning activities.

Program Overview and Summary Federal and state regulations require the WWVMPO/SRTPO to develop a short-term Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) for its metropolitan and regional study areas. Federal requirements call for a four-year, financially constrained list of projects, whereas Washington State regulations stipulate a six-year list of projects.

In lieu of producing two separate documents, the combined Walla Walla Valley Metropolitan and Regional Transportation Improvement Program (M/RTIP) is a six-year programming document, which demonstrates financial constraint for federal funds throughout the first four years of the integrated financial plan.

The projects within the M/RTIP are derived from the WWVMPO/SRTPO managed call for federally funded transportation improvements; the cities’ and county’s six-year Comprehensive Transportation Programs, developed and adopted by each of the local Washington State member entities; the Transportation System Plans, developed by Oregon member entities; the six-year Transit Development Plan, developed and adopted by the local public transportation agency; and the project lists developed by the Departments of Transportation with jurisdiction in the planning area. All projects contained in the M/RTIP must be consistent with policy and project recommendations included in the Walla Walla Valley Metropolitan and Regional Transportation - 2040 Plan.

The M/RTIP is updated annually and functions as a project programming document and financial plan that identifies all federally funded and prioritized projects, as well as other transportation improvements of regional significance, regardless of their funding source. General steps in the development of the M/RTIP include:

• The WWVMPO/SRTPO issues a Call for Projects, based on anticipated federal funding availability. Member entities select projects from the fiscally constrained project list contained in the 2040 Plan

for consideration in the M/RTIP. The submitted projects are prioritized using the adopted project selection process and criteria. Projects are awarded within the limits of available federal funding.

• Local city and county governments and public transportation agencies prepare and submit their local six-year programs to WSDOT and the WWVMPO/SRTPO. Based on local comprehensive plans, these programs also contain non-federally funded, but regionally

significant projects.

• The WWVMPO/SRTPO coordinates with ODOT and WSDOT regarding anticipated state-managed projects. • The public and interested parties are afforded early and reasonable opportunity for involvement and a

public hearing is held to obtain the views of the public on the proposed program of projects. • Prior to program adoption, the WWVMPO/SRTPO reviews the projects to ensure the following – All projects scheduled for federal funding are included in the TIP; Federally funded projects are fiscally constrained by year and funding source; All regionally significant projects are included, regardless of funding source; and The M/RTIP projects are consistent with the current metropolitan and regional transportation plan.

Tables 1 and 2 show a summary of funding included in the 2019-2024 M/RTIP for projects within the Washington State MPO and SRTPO area as well as the Oregon MPO area, respectively.

Once adopted, the M/RTIP is included in the respective Statewide Transportation Improvement Programs (STIP). ODOT and WSDOT are responsible for the statewide coordination of their STIPs. Following federal approval of the STIPs, local jurisdictions may begin obligating federal funds for their projects.

Regulatory Background WWVMPO/SRTPO staff assembles the M/RTIP in full compliance with the following federal and state laws.

Federal Requirements According to 23 USC 134 (j), the Metropolitan Transportation Improvement Program must –

• Be cooperatively developed by the MPO, cities, counties, transit agencies, and state DOT;• Include regionally significant and all federally funded transportation capital and non-capital projects;• List prioritized projects with description, total cost, and implementing agency;• Encompass four years of programmed projects;• Be updated regularly – at least once every four years;• Include cooperatively determined funding estimates;• Demonstrate fiscal constraint by year and funding source;• Be consistent with the adopted Metropolitan Transportation Plan; and• May include a list of illustrative (unfunded) projects.

In compliance with 49 USC 5307 (b), the WWVMPO/SRTPO M/RTIP also satisfies the public participation requirements pertaining to urbanized area formula grant funding received from the Federal Transit Administration.

State Requirements According to RCW 47.80.023 (5), the Regional Transportation Improvement Program must –

• Be cooperatively developed by the RTPO, cities, counties, transit agencies, and state DOT;• Include regionally significant transportation projects and programs, transportation demand

management (TDM) measures, as well as projects that advance special needs coordinationtransportation as identified by the Agency Council on Coordinated Transportation;

• Provide a priority list of projects, programs, and TDM measures;• Encompass six years of programmed projects;• Be updated at least every two years;• Include a financial plan that demonstrates how programmed projects can be funded;• Be based on the local six-year programs, projects, and TDM measures of regional significance identified

by transit agencies, cities, and counties, as well as WSDOT; and• Be consistent with the adopted Regional Transportation Plan.

Public Involvement Citizens and interested parties are provided opportunity to comment on the draft M/RTIP as required under the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act. The public review period for the draft 2019-2024 M/RTIP

was held from September 4, 2018 through September 17, 2018. Furthermore, a public hearing, conducted as part of the regular Policy Board meeting on October 3, 2018, will provide an additional opportunity to obtain the views of the public on the proposed projects.

Public notices announcing the availability of the draft were published in the newspaper of record and on the WWVMPO/SRTPO website. A copy of the draft 2019-2024 M/RTIP was also available for public viewing at three locations in Walla Walla County and one location in Umatilla County: the Milton-Freewater Library, the Walla Walla Library, Waitsburg City Hall, and the WWVMPO/SRTPO office. An electronic copy was posted on the WWVMPO/SRTPO website at http://wwvmpo.org/public-participation.html. All public comments received were included in Appendix I of the final document.

It is important to note that public involvement activities and time established for public review and comment on the M/RTIP satisfy Program of Projects (POP) public involvement requirements of the Federal Transit Administration Section 5307 Program as they relate to Valley Transit and Milton-Freewater public transportation projects.

Title VI Assurance As a recipient of federal funds, the WWVMPO/SRTPO is subject to the provisions of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987. In compliance with the requirements, the agency assures that no person shall, on the grounds of race, color, national origin, or sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any program or activity conducted by the WWVMPO/SRTPO.

The agency has an approved Title VI Plan on file. Any Title VI issues discovered during the development of the 2019-2024 M/RTIP will be corrected in the first available amendment cycle in January 2019.

Program Purpose and Scope Each year the WWVMPO/SRTPO prepares the M/RTIP in coordination with local jurisdictions, public transportation agencies, ODOT, and WSDOT. All projects in the 2019-2024 M/RTIP have been reviewed and found to be consistent with the goals and objectives in local comprehensive plans, the 2040 Plan, and the respective State Transportation Plans.

M/RTIP Purpose and Scope in Washington State The Metropolitan and Regional Transportation Improvement Program aids in the coordination of transportation investments throughout the region. The program provides the public, elected officials, state and local staff, transit providers, tribes, and other interested parties the opportunity to review projects for consistency with regional and local plans, goals, and policies. The M/RTIP requires approval by the WWVMPO/SRTPO Policy Board, the Federal Highway Administration and Federal Transit Administration, the Washington State Department of Transportation and the Washington State Governor’s Office. The approved M/RTIP is then included in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). WSDOT is responsible for the statewide coordination of the STIP. The Washington STIP process and project list can be found at: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/LocalPrograms/ProgramMgmt/STIP.htm.

Once local agency projects are programmed, WSDOT manages the local portion of the federal highway funds on a first-come first-served basis. Following federal approval of the STIP, local jurisdictions may begin obligating federal funds for their projects. The regional procedures allow any federal project included in the STIP to be advanced or delayed without STIP amendment, contingent upon the financial balance being maintained for each fiscal year.

MTIP Purpose and Scope in Oregon State The Oregon-specific TIP projects require approval by the WWVMPO/SRTPO Policy Board, the Federal Highway Administration and Federal Transit Administration, as well as the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Oregon Governor’s Office. However, the timing for the Washington State and Oregon Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) development activities are generally not concurrent.

• The current 2018-2021 TIP for WWVMPO Oregon members was developed ahead of the WWVMPO/SRTPO 2019-2021 M/RTIP, and the Oregon-specific projects are included in this M/RTIP to inform the public.

• The development of the 2021-2024 STIP began in July 2017. Completion of the new STIP is anticipated in summer of 2020.

ODOT is responsible for the statewide coordination of the Oregon STIP. The Oregon STIP process and project list can be found at: http://www.oregon.gov/odot/stip/pages/index.aspx.

Once local agency projects are programmed, ODOT manages the local portion of the federal highway funds on a first-come first-served basis and, in coordination with local jurisdictions, may choose to exchange the federal funds for state funds. If local jurisdictions are recipients of federal funds, following federal approval of the STIP, local jurisdictions may begin obligating federal funds for their projects. The regional procedures allow any federal project included in the STIP to be advanced or delayed without STIP amendment, contingent upon the financial balance being maintained for each fiscal year.

Intermodal/Multimodal Provisions The WWVMPO/SRTPO and its member entities recognize that quality of life, which is highly valued by regional stakeholders and the public, is inherently improved through the advancement of pedestrian and bicycle related transportation projects. Therefore, all projects listed in the 2019-2024 M/RTIP considered context-sensitive provisions for pedestrian and bicycle transportation modes to the extent possible.

NHS Facility Certification Following the adoption of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) Act in 2012, the National Highway System (NHS) was greatly expanded. Accounting for 37.99 miles in the WWVMPO/SRTPO area, local agencies with NHS routes are responsible for maintaining those roadway segments. Because of their national and strategic significance, NHS routes are deemed to be of greater importance than non-NHS routes.

The WWVMPO/SRTPO certifies that NHS routes have been given priority by agencies throughout their six-year programming process.

Performance Management Performance-based planning, programming, and management, focused on national transportation goals, provides the means to the most efficient investment of federal transportation funds, improves project decision-making, and increases accountability and transparency. (23 USC 150)

In 2012, the passage of the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) Act first instituted this requirement for performance-based transportation planning. The Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, signed into law in December 2015, continues MAP-21’s overall performance management approach, requiring States and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) to undertake performance-based planning and programming to collectively make progress toward identified national goals.

http://www.oregon.gov/odot/stip/pages/index.aspx

These national performance goals have been established for the following seven key areas:

• Safety - To achieve a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads• Infrastructure Condition - To maintain the highway infrastructure asset system in a state of good repair• Congestion Reduction - To achieve a significant reduction in congestion on the National Highway System• System Reliability - To improve the efficiency of the surface transportation system• Freight Movement and Economic Vitality - To improve the national freight network, strengthen the

ability of rural communities to access national and international trade markets, and support regionaleconomic development

• Environmental Sustainability - To enhance the performance of the transportation system whileprotecting and enhancing the natural environment

• Reduced Project Delivery Delays - To reduce project costs, promote jobs and the economy, and expeditethe movement of people and goods by accelerating project completion through eliminating delays in theproject development and delivery process, including reducing regulatory burdens and improvingagencies' work practices

State DOTs and MPOs are required to a) establish select performance targets and b) track progress towards achieving these national goals. The promulgation of rules and associated performance measures began in 2012; the first proposed rules were published in 2014; and the first final rules were established in early 2016. The following table provides an overview of transportation system performance related rulemaking:

Safety and Highway Safety Improvement Program The final rulemaking for safety has two components: Safety Performance Management Measures and the Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). Five performance measures were established to assess safety performance (5-year rolling average) and carry out the HSIP. (23 CFR 490.207(a))

• Number of fatalities • Rate of fatalities per vehicle miles traveled (VMT)

• Number of serious injuries • Rate of serious injuries per VMT

• Number of combined non-motorized fatalities and non-motorized serious injuries

On February 7, 2018, the WWVMPO/SRTPO Policy Board agreed to support ODOT’s and WSDOT’s 2018 targets for the five safety performance targets.

Pavement and Bridges The final pavement and bridge condition rule outlines measures to assess pavement and bridge conditions on the National Highway System (NHS). (23 CFR 490.307(a) and 23 CFR 490.407(a))

• Pavement Percent of Pavements of the Interstate System in “Good” and “Poor” condition1 Percent of Pavements of the non-Interstate NHS in “Good” and “Poor” condition

• Measured as: Four condition metrics for each pavement section – International Roughness Index (IRI), rutting, faulting, and cracking percent; and three inventory data elements - through lanes, surface type, and structure type.

• Bridge Percent of NHS bridges in “Good” AND “Poor” condition

• Measured as: Good, Fair, Poor classification related to the minimum [lowest] condition rating of the deck, superstructure, substructure, and culverts (National Bridge Inventory (NBI) items 58, 59, 60, and 62, respectively)

Ahead of the November 16, 2018 deadline, the WWVMPO/SRTPO will take formal action to support ODOT and WSDOT targets for applicable pavement and bridge performance measures.

System Performance FHWA released the Final Rule for System Performance (23 CFR 490.507), Freight1 (23 CFR 490.607), and Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ)2 (23 CFR 490.707 and 23 CFR 490.807).

• National Highway Performance Program (NHPP) – Percent of Person-Miles Traveled on the Interstate System that are reliable Percent of Person-Miles Traveled on the non-Interstate NHS that are reliable

• Measured as: All traffic/vehicles data in National Performance Management Research Data Set (NPMRDS) or Equivalent (15-minute interval data)

• Freight movement on the Interstate System (NHFP) – Truck Travel Time Reliability Index

• Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) – Annual Hours of Peak Hour Excessive Delay per Capita Percent of Non-SOV Travel Total Emissions Reduction

Ahead of the November 16, 2018 deadline, the WWVMPO/SRTPO will also take formal action to support ODOT and WSDOT targets for applicable system performance measures.

1 It is important to note that there is no Interstate highway located within the WWVMPO/SRTPO area, and thus Interstate related performance measures are not applicable. 2 The WWVMPO/SRTPO is not currently located within an air quality non-attainment area.

Transit Asset Management Becoming effective on October 1, 2016, the final rule required that all recipients of federal financial assistance under 49 USC Chapter 53, who own, operate, or manage public transportation capital assets, must develop and implement Transit Asset Management (TAM) plans. A TAM plan must include an asset inventory, condition assessments of inventoried assets, a decision-support tool, and a prioritized list of investments to improve the “State of Good Repair” (SGR) levels of their capital assets. The final rule (49 CFR 625) also established SGR standards and four associated SGR performance measures; required coordination of the performance targets with the state DOTs and MPOs; and called for the reporting of asset inventories, conditions, and performance measures through the National Transit Database. The FTA is implementing the TAM requirements using a two-tiered approach, in order to reduce associated resource obligations for agencies operating smaller fleets:

• Tier I – A Tier I provider is a recipient who owns, operates, or manages 101 or more vehicles in revenue service during peak-time regular service across all fixed route modes or in any one non-fixed route mode; or a provider who operates rail transit.

• Tier II – A Tier II provider is a recipient who owns, operates, or manages 100 or fewer vehicles in revenue service during peak -time regular service across all non-rail fixed route modes or in any one non-fixed route mode; a sub-recipient under the 5311 Rural Area Formula program; a sub-recipient under the 5310 Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities program who operates an open-door service; or any American Indian tribe.

Within the WWVMPO/SRTPO, Valley Transit and Milton-Freewater Public Transportation are classified as Tier II operators. The final SGR performance measures that all Tier II Locally Operated Transit Services (LOTS) are required to adopt are:

• Equipment (Non-revenue vehicles) – % of non-revenue vehicles that have met or exceeded their useful life benchmark

• Rolling Stock (Revenue Vehicles) – % of revenue vehicles that have met/exceeded their useful life benchmark

• Infrastructure (Guideway)3 – % of track segments with performance restrictions

• Facilities – % of facilities with a rating below 3.0 on the FTA Transit Economic Requirements Model (TERM) scale

In compliance with the requirements of the final TAM rule, the WWVMPO/SRTPO closely coordinates with the public transportation providers located within the region.

Progress Towards Achievement of Performance Targets Since its establishment in 2013, the WWVMPO/SRTPO has independently been implementing elements of performance-based planning as part of its planning and programming activities. Collision data, associated collision rates, and pavement conditions have been an integral part to regional project selection as can be seen in the detailed project selection criteria contained in Appendix F. The WWVMPO/SRTPO also acknowledges that transit projects selected for inclusion in the TIP help achieve regional SGR targets.

However, in response to the federal requirements, the program of projects included in the 2019-2024 M/RTIP, now also encompasses the anticipated effects on transportation performance, and the complete set of MPO-specific targets – adopted through September 2018 – is contained in Appendix G.

3 As this asset class includes rail fixed-guideway, track, signals, and systems, it is not applicable to Valley Transit or Milton-Freewater Public Transportation.

Major Projects Implemented Since the Previous TIP Since the previous M/RTIP was approved, the following projects have obligated all associated funding and, either are still under construction, or have recently been completed:

• 4th Street/Academy Way (West Side School District Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements) • Blue Creek Bridge on Mill Creek Road MP 6.3 • Second Avenue Improvements – Rose to US 12 • US 12/Old Highway 12 to E Isaacs Ave Bridge – Chip Seal & Joint Repair

Financial Plan Fiscal feasibility is a significant priority in determining the final list of 2019-2024 M/RTIP transportation improvements. Federal and state requirements mandate that this document be fiscally constrained and only include projects that can reasonably be expected to have adequate funding

Funding Sources The 2019-2024 M/RTIP is funded from a variety of federal, state, and local sources. A list of the most common funding programs is shown in Appendix H. It is important to note that not all state and locally funded projects have to be programmed in the M/RTIP, unless one or more of the following conditions apply:

• State or local funds are used to match federal dollars; • Projects that require federal approval or other formal federal action; or • The state or locally funded projects are of regional significance.

Financial Constraint The M/RTIP covers six years of projects from 2019 to 2024. Placement of M/RTIP projects is based on priority; projects to be obligated in 2019 are the highest priority. Carry-over projects from 2018 are included with the high priority projects.

The financial constraint for federal Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) and Transportation Alternatives (TA, an STBG set-aside) funding is tied directly to the anticipated allocations to the WWVMPO/SRTPO provided through WSDOT. Close coordination between WSDOT and the agency allowed the estimation of STBG and TA funding from 2019 through 2022. The table below summarizes the associated funding assumptions, which are based on final allocations received in federal fiscal year (FFY) 2018.

Table 3.

STBG and TA funding not tied to 2018-2021 M/RTIP carry-over projects, was assigned to new projects through a regionwide STBG and TA call for projects, which took place in April and May of 2018. Placement of the projects within the first four years of the M/RTIP is based on project priority as well as available funding for the respective urban, rural, and any area categories; carry-over projects retain their original timing whenever possible.

Appendix A provides a funding summary by source for all projects within the MPO/SRTPO area in Washington State. Appendix B expands upon this financial information and demonstrates fiscal constraint for each source of federal funding by year.

Appendix C provides detailed project descriptions and financial information by project phase and source for all projects within the MPO/SRTPO area in Washington State, whereas detailed information on Oregon MPO area projects is shown in Appendix D. It is important to note that although this M/RTIP discloses project description and financial details for all WWVMPO/SRTPO projects, it does not include Oregon-specific project funding in the fiscal constraint calculation, as the current ODOT STIP has already gone through the required review and approval process.

M/RTIP Amendment Process The WWVMPO/SRTPO will develop the calendar year (CY) 2019 internal amendment schedule for Washington State and Oregon projects by November 2018. Each member agency’s request for an M/RTIP amendment must include the project title, description, cost, funding sources, implementation schedule, and reason for the amendment. The project amendment will undergo the same review process required of the original project submission to assure compliance with federal and state laws and consistency with the 2040 Plan.

Amendment to WA MPO/SRTPO Projects Local jurisdictions or agencies located in Washington may submit a request for an M/RTIP amendment according to the internal schedule, which is based on guidance given by WSDOT.

The M/RTIP is required to be amended for a project within Washington State, if it meets any of the conditions listed in the table on the following page. (Please note, the table has been extracted from Appendix C of WSDOT’s current STIP document: http://www.wsdot.wa.gov/LocalPrograms/ProgramMgmt/STIPDoc.htm.)

Amendment to OR MPO Projects Local jurisdictions or agencies located in Oregon may submit a request for an M/RTIP amendment according to the internal schedule. Although ODOT accepts amendments to the STIP on a daily basis, the WWVMPO must follow the established schedule prior to the ODOT STIP submission process to allow for public review and subsequent approval of TIP amendments by its Technical Advisory Committee and Policy Board.

The M/RTIP is required to be amended for an Oregon project, if it meets any of the conditions in the following amendment categories listed below. (Please note, the figure has been extracted from ODOT’s current 2018-2021 STIP: https://www.oregon.gov/ODOT/STIP/Documents/2018-2021-Final-STIP.pdf.)

Appendix D - OR MPO Projects, Cost and Funding This is a placeholder for detailed project information from ODOT’s online STIP, which will be added after successful project inclusion of the Milton-Freewater public transportation projects.


Appendix E - TIP Policies as Adopted by the WWVMPO/SRTPO Policy Board on August 1, 2018 1. Compliance with Regional and Local Plans Eligibility for inclusion in the Metropolitan and Regional Transportation Improvement Program (M/RTIP) is tied to FAST Act planning requirements as well as the project consistency with the adopted Walla Walla Valley Metropolitan and Regional Transportation - 2040 Plan.

• Capital improvements, roadway capacity, or general purpose roadway projects must be included in the fiscally-constrained project list.

• Projects designed to improve safety or increase multi-modal transportation opportunities may be programmed without being individually identified in the 2040 Plan, as long as – They are consistent with the established goals and objectives; and They are funded with revenues identified in the 2040 Plan - OR - new funding not previously anticipated.

Furthermore, projects must also be included in the project sponsor’s Transportation Improvement Program, Capital Improvement Plan, Transit Development Plan, and/or adopted budget. Locally adopted plans and budgets provide proof of the project sponsor’s commitment to the project, which is critical to timely implementation and prevention of loss of previously awarded funding.

2. Financial Constraint The M/RTIP will only include projects that fall within the fiscal constraint of the region’s expected four-year allocation of Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) and Transportation Alternatives (TA) program funds. Once funding is awarded, the respective STBG or TA project will be included in the M/RTIP - no later than the following year.

3. Prioritized, Illustrative Projects Prioritized projects that could not be included in the fiscally constrained M/RTIP list of improvements will be listed among the illustrative projects.

4. Additional Funds Should additional funding become available through higher than expected allocations, new federal grants, or deobligated funds, the additional funds may first be assigned to projects that received partial funding in the most recent project call; the assigned amount may be equal to the original shortfall, but less than 25% of the partial award or 20% of the current annual allocations for that category of funding (STBG or TA AND urban or rural), whichever is less. In the absence of eligible partially funded projects, already prioritized, illustrative projects will be used to program the additional funding. If the region has already met its obligation target for the fiscal year in which the additional funding is received, the funds may be carried forward into the next call for projects. It is important to understand that a guarantee of additional funding availability cannot be provided. In regard to partial funding awards, project sponsors have to certify increased local match availability in the interim to allow the project to move forward for inclusion in the Transportation Improvement Program at both the local and state level. It is also understood that the overall amount for a subsequent call for projects may thus be reduced.

5. Reduction in Funds In the event that programmed funding is lower than anticipated due to decreased appropriations, changes in federal grant programs, or a rescission of unobligated balances, previously awarded projects will remain a top priority to be reprogrammed as revenues are restored.

6. Carry-over of Un-Obligated Funds All previously programmed but not yet obligated projects will automatically have funds carried forward to next year’s M/RTIP, unless the project sponsor rescinds project support.

7. Reasonable Progress A. Project Tracking and Obligation Balancing In order to ensure the timely expenditure of available funding, progress tracking interviews are conducted as part of Technical Advisory Committee meetings in January/February and again in April/May. During each discussion, project sponsors provide readiness status on programmed projects and progress updates on obligated projects.


Guided by the region’s annual allocation of federal Surface Transportation Block Grant and TA Set-Aside funding and the associated obligation target, WWVMPO/SRTPO member entities will discuss and determine readiness of their programmed projects to balance federal obligations across the region. Should a potential shortfall of the required obligation target occur, or possibly an over-obligation of funds, WWVMPO/SRTPO staff will share this information with WSDOT and all other MPOs or RTPOS at the February and again at the May Coordinating Committee Meetings to allow for balancing of obligations at the statewide level. B. Procedures and Enforcement Based on the documented findings of the “Project Tracking and Obligation Balancing” interviews, projects that were determined to move forward, but failed to obligate programmed federal funds by the WSDOT-prescribed and Policy Board-approved suspense date of August 1, will put the federal funding at risk of forfeiture. In order to avert potential funding loss, the project sponsor will have the opportunity to ask for consideration of a “one-time extension”, which has to be made before August 1 of the current fiscal year. To be considered for this extension, the project sponsor should demonstrate:

• The delay is beyond their control and the sponsor has done due diligence in moving the project forward; • Federal funds have already been obligated for prior phases of the project, or if no federal funds are used

for PE or ROW acquisition phases, there has been significant progress toward final plan preparation; and • There is a realistic strategy in place to obligate all funds.

One-time extensions of up to three months may be granted by WWVMPO/SRTPO staff; whereas extensions greater than three months, but not beyond May 1 of the following year, will go to the Policy Board for consideration and approval. Should the project sponsor not request an extension, or the extended project does not progress to the stage of funding obligation by May 1 of the following year, the project will be removed from the M/RTIP, and the federal funds associated with the project will be returned to the regional funding pool for redistribution. In that case, the removal of projects from the TIP will require no further Policy Board action. C. Inactive Projects In line with federal and WSDOT guidance, project phases for which federal funds have been obligated, but no expenditures have been billed for at least nine months, are considered “inactive” as described in 23 CFR 630.106. Inactive projects are subject to de-obligation of awarded funds, which are then returned to the regional funding pool. 8. Cost Overruns and Increases In case of a cost increase or overrun on a programmed project, the WWVMPO/SRTPO is not responsible for awarding additional, regionally managed STBG and TA funds beyond those approved in the M/RTIP. The responsibility for increases and overruns on a project already under contract will be determined by the prevailing contractual agreement between the project sponsor and WSDOT. If awarded funds are insufficient to fulfill the scope of the project as programmed, the project sponsor may shift funding across phases and/or years to cover cost increases for the affected phase pending availability of funding. Should additional funds be required to implement the remaining phase(s), the project sponsor is responsible for securing them from an alternative source of revenue or compete for additional funds at the next call for projects. 9. Scope Changes Projects are evaluated and selected for programming based on how well they advance regional transportation goals and objectives. All scope changes for projects programmed with STBG and TA funding must be communicated to the WWVMPO/SRTPO. Any change that significantly alters the original scope, and thus affects the objective of the project, may warrant project removal from the M/RTIP. In compliance with WSDOT guidance, significant scope changes must therefore be reviewed by the Technical Advisory Committee and approved by the Policy Board through the M/RTIP amendment process. If the project is subsequently removed from the M/RTIP, it may compete in future calls for projects. 10. M/RTIP Amendment Schedule The WWVMPO/SRTPO will develop the calendar year internal amendment schedule for Washington projects by November of the preceding year.


Appendix F - Criteria and Process Used for Prioritization of Projects The Walla Walla Valley MPO/SRTPO conducted a competitive application cycle and issued a regional call on April 10, 2018 for Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG) and Transportation Alternatives (TA) eligible projects for jurisdictions and agencies located in Washington State. Available funding for the call for projects included $2,762,000 in STBG and $252,000 in TA federal grants, subject to urban and rural area caps per project funding request.

• The STBG grant program provides flexible funding for roadway, bridge, safety, transit capital, planning, recreational trails, pedestrian, and bicycle projects.

• The TA grant program provides funding for bicycle and pedestrian facilities; scenic viewing areas and overlooks; and transportation-related community improvement projects such as historic preservation, wildlife mortality mitigation, and water and environmental quality improvements.

The projects included in this M/RTIP were selected as part of this competitive application process, which took place in April and May of 2018. The project selection criteria shown on the following pages are based on the region’s 2040 Plan and were adopted by the WWVMPO/SRTPO’s Policy Board on April 4, 2018.

Washington State’s Target Zero Strategic Highway Safety Plan is the basis for setting targets in Washington State – with the goal of zero fatalities and serious injuries by 2030. Proposed targets were developed using a straight-line projection to a zero value at 2030. All Washington MPOs agreed to support the WSDOT targets and were provided a proportional share based on a percentage of fatal and serious crashes within their metropolitan planning area.

Appendix H - Project Funding Source Overview Federal Funding The following are descriptions of the most common federal transportation funding sources for which the WWVMPO/SRTPO area is eligible. Please note that the list is not inclusive of all funding programs authorized under the most recent surface transportation law – Fixing America’s Surface Transportation (FAST) Act, which was adopted in December 2015:

• Surface Transportation Block Grant (STBG): This program replaces the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21) Act’s Surface Transportation Program (STP). The STBG continues to provide flexible funding that may be used by state DOTs, counties, and cities for projects to preserve and improve the condition and performance on any Federal-aid highway, bridge, and tunnel project on any public road; pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure; and transit capital projects, including intercity bus terminals. The STBG program includes sub-allocated funds based on population and flexible funds for use anywhere. In line with previous STP categories, funds are divided as follows:

The Bridge STBG (BR) funds replacement, rehabilitation, preservation, and protection of “off-system” local bridges and tunnels on public roads of all functional classifications. The state prioritizes and programs bridges for funding.

The Regional STBG (U), (US), (R), etc. provides funding to MPOs, RTPOs, and county lead agencies through allocated STBG funds for prioritization and selection according upon their established procedures. The allocations are based on population as follows: Urbanized areas with more than 200,000 people (U = Urban); areas greater than 5,000 but no more than 200,000 (US = Urban Small); areas of 5,000 or less (R = Rural); and “any area” for use anywhere in the state.

A portion of State DOTs’ STBG funds that can be applied anywhere, are used for state highway system preservation and interstate reconstruction. State DOTs prioritize and program these projects.

The Transportation Alternatives Program (TA) is now a set-aside under the STBG program. Unchanged from MAP-21 with its separate Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP), the TA program provides funding for 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 trail program projects; safe routes to school projects; and projects for the planning, design or construction of boulevards and other roadways largely in the right-of-way of former Interstate System routes or other divided highways. As with STBG funds, TA allocations are also based on population (U = Urban, US = Urban Small, R = Rural, and “any area”).

A set-aside for the Recreational Trails Program (RTP) is also provided.

• National Highway Performance Program (NHPP): If located on the National Highway System (NHS), projects eligible for NHPP funding include construction, reconstruction, resurfacing, restoration, rehabilitation, and preservation of highways and bridges; bridge and tunnel inspection and evaluation; safety projects; environmental restoration and mitigation; intelligent transportation systems (ITS); and bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure.

• Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP): HSIP provides funding to implement engineering countermeasures to reduce fatal and serious injury collisions to achieve a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads. These funds are made available to all state and local agencies and tribal nations and can be applied to all public roadways. State DOTs prioritize and program state and local projects based upon the respective Strategic Highway Safety Plan – Oregon’s Transportation Safety Action Plan (TSAP) and Washington State’s Target Zero. The HSIP program has a set-aside for the railway/highway crossing program.

• The National Highway Freight Program (NHFP) is a new formula-based, surface transportation program that provides states with funding to bolster the movement of goods on roads. The program was created through the FAST Act.


• The Nationally Significant Freight and Highway Projects (NSFHP) is also a new program under the FAST Act. NSHFP is a competitive grant program that provides funding to address large-scale projects of regional and national importance.

• Transportation Infrastructure Finance and Innovation Act (TIFIA): The TIFIA program provides Federal credit assistance in the form of direct loans, loan guarantees, and standby lines of credit to finance surface transportation projects of regional and national significance.

• Federal Lands Access Program (FLAP): The Federal Lands Access Program was established in 23 U.S.C. 204 to improve transportation facilities that provide access to, are adjacent to, or are located within Federal lands. The Access Program supplements State and local resources for public roads, transit systems, and other transportation facilities, with an emphasis on high-use recreation sites and economic generators.

• Federal Lands Transportation Program (FLTP): FLTP funds projects that improve access within Federal lands, such as national forests and national recreation areas, on infrastructure owned by the Federal government. This program combines the former Park Roads and Refuge Roads programs, and adds three new Federal Land Management Agency (FLMA) partners. Funding for projects in the WWVMPO/SRTPO area are administered by the Western Federal Lands (WFL) Highway Division, located in Vancouver, WA.

• Tribal Transportation Program (TTP): TTP funds projects that improve access to and within Tribal lands. This program has set asides for tribal bridge projects and tribal safety projects.

• Community Development Block Grant (CDBG): CDBG program funds are primarily for low and moderate-income communities, to partially pay for projects advocating for the interests of a low-income neighborhood, such as providing new street infrastructure and supporting neighborhood revitalization. These grants are either directly allocated to eligible cities or awarded through the Oregon Business Development Department and the Washington State Department of Commerce.

• FTA Section 5303 and 5304 – Transportation Planning: These formula funds are apportioned to each state for metropolitan and statewide planning that supports cooperative, continuous, and comprehensive planning and other technical assistance activities for making transportation investment decisions. States are direct recipients of Section 5303 and 5304 funds, and subsequently allocate 5303 funds to Metropolitan Planning Organizations by formula.

• FTA Section 5307 – Urbanized Area Formula Grants: These funds are apportioned by a formula to each urbanized area, and are available for planning, capital and operating assistance. Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) program activities, which focused on providing services to low income individuals to access jobs, became eligible activities under the Urbanized Area Formula program following the adoption of MAP-21. This includes operating assistance with a 50 percent local match for job access and reverse commute services. In addition, the urbanized area formula for distributing funds includes the number of low-income individuals as a factor.

• FTA Section 5309 – Fixed Guideway Capital Investment Grants (New Starts): The program provides grants for new and expanded rail, bus rapid transit, and ferry systems that reflect local priorities to improve transportation options in key corridors. This includes core capacity projects, which expand capacity by at least 10% in existing fixed-guideway transit corridors that are already at or above capacity today, or are expected to be at or above capacity within five years. The program also includes provisions for streamlining aspects of the New Starts process to increase efficiency and reduce the time required to meet critical milestones. This discretionary program requires project sponsors to undergo a multi-step, multi-year process to be eligible for funding. Typically, projects receive these funds through a full funding grant agreement (FFGA) that defines the project scope and specifies the total multi-year Federal commitment to the project.

• FTA Section 5310 - Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and Individuals with Disabilities: This program is intended to enhance mobility for seniors and persons with disabilities by providing funds for programs to serve the special needs of transit-dependent populations beyond traditional public transportation services and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) complementary paratransit services. It consolidates the New Freedom Program and Elderly and Disabled Program. Projects selected for funding must be included in a locally developed Coordinated Public Transit-Human Services Transportation Plan and included in the


RTPO program in their respective area. State DOTs administer these funds through a competitive grant program.

• FTA Section 5311 – Rural Area Formula Grants: These formula funds are apportioned to each state, and eligible activities include planning, Rural Transit Assistance Program (RTAP), intercity bus programs, state administration, and both capital and operating assistance. State DOTs administer these funds through a competitive grant program serving the general public in rural areas of the state. Following the adoption of MAP-21, activities eligible under the former Job Access and Reverse Commute (JARC) program, which provided services to low-income individuals to access jobs, became eligible under the Rural Area Formula program. In addition, the formula includes the number of low income individuals as a factor.

• FTA Section 5329 – Transit Safety & Oversight: This program establishes a comprehensive framework to oversee the safety of public transportation as it pertains to heavy rail, light rail, buses, ferries, and streetcars. The program also includes important safety provisions for bus-only operators.

• FTA Section 5337 – State of Good Repair: Established in MAP-21, this program is dedicated to repairing and upgrading the nation’s rail transit systems along with high-intensity motor bus systems that use high-occupancy vehicle lanes, including bus rapid transit (BRT). Projects are limited to replacement and rehabilitation, or capital projects required to maintain public transportation systems in a state of good repair. Grantees are required to establish and use an asset management system to develop capital asset inventories and condition assessments, and report on the condition of their system as a whole.

• FTA Section 5339 – Bus and Bus Facilities: The program provides formula-based and competitive grants for capital funding to replace, rehabilitate, and purchase buses and related equipment and to construct bus-related facilities.

State Funding

• Oregon and Washington State Departments of Transportation (ODOT and WSDOT): Both state DOTs provide funding for DOT-managed projects.

Oregon Additional Funding Sources • ConnectOregon: Created by the Oregon Legislature in 2005, ConnectOregon is a lottery-backed bond

program, which provides for investments into air, marine, rail, and public transportation infrastructure. It is important to note that funds are reserved for those projects which are not eligible for funding from fuel tax revenues. To date, six ConnectOregon programs have been authorized (2005, 2007, 2009, 2011, 2013, and 2015) by the Oregon Legislature.

• Keep Oregon Moving (House Bill 2017): Created in 2017 by the Oregon Legislature, HB 2017 is funded through increased gas tax, vehicle registration, and title fees. HB 2017 funds road maintenance and preservation, congestion reduction, safe walking and biking projects, improvements to rail and ports, and electric vehicle incentives. Direct funding is provided to 43 select state and local road projects. HB 2017 also establishes a new, dedicated source of funding for expanded public transportation services.

• ODOT Fix-it and Enhance Program: To distribute state (and federal) gas tax revenue, ODOT funds “Fix-it” projects, which maintain or preserve existing infrastructure and are typically identified via an infrastructure management system, and “Enhance” projects, which enhance, expand, or improve the transportation system and are selected via a competitive process.

• Transportation and Growth Management Program (TMG): Oregon's Transportation and Growth Management Program supports community planning efforts to expand transportation choices. Local governments can use TMG funds for the development of transportation system plans and other plans that integrate land use and transportation planning in support of mixed-use development and improved pedestrian, bicycle, transit, and multi-modal street facilities.

• Created in 1989, the Special Transportation Fund (STF) is administered by ODOT’s Rail and Public Transit Division and provides supplementary support for selected transit-related projects to counties, transit districts, and Tribal governments. The funds are awarded using a population-based formula and are designated for any transit operator serving seniors and people with disabilities. The revenue for the program primarily comes from the State’s cigarette tax.


Washington State Additional Funding Sources • Connecting Washington (CWA): The program provides earmarked funding for select projects included in
