Pre-Reading for Summit DiscussionsAsheville/Candler – March 20, 2012
Recommend investment strategy(s) to the Secretary of Transportation and the Board of Transportation (BOT) as INPUT into NCDOT’s Draft 10-Year Program and Resource Plan which is scheduled to be released in the Spring 2012 • Build greater awareness of the state’s transportation challenges, i.e., purchasing power is declining, needs are increasing, performance is impacted • Result: Today’s summit will produce at least one statewide investment strategy and one Division-specific (Div. 13 & 14) strategy based on how YOU would like to SPEND transportation dollars Summit Purpose and Outcome
Today’s Summit Objectives • To review NCDOT’s Strategic Prioritization Process to ensure everyone understands its purpose, goals, and outcomes • To explain how a performance evaluation (Level of Service) of NC’s transportation system informs your development of investment strategies • To understand how your investment strategy & input will be used by NCDOT, i.e., prioritization and performance impact do not always equal programming
Agenda • Morning Session (9 am – Noon) • Review Summit purpose, objectives, investment strategies (SPOT Office) • Develop a recommended statewide investment strategy based on 2018-2022 projected needs ($63 Billion) against available revenue ($10 Billion) (Breakout Groups) • Lunch Break (noon-1:00) • Afternoon Session (1:00 pm – 3 pm) • Brief explanation of NCDOT Programming process (TIP staff) • Develop a NCDOT Division–specific (Divisions 13 & 14) investment strategy based on the revenue available (subject to the NC’s Equity Formula).
Participant Expectations • Morning Session Breakout Discussion • Nominate someone at your table to be the facilitator • Discuss your views of where transportation dollars should be allocated on a statewide basis across all modes of transportation (i.e. airports, rail, ferry, public transportation, bicycle/pedestrian, highways and bridges). • No constraints except available revenue, i.e., highway money can be spent on non-highway needs • Participants will have to make tough decisions on where to recommend using limited resources. • Engage your group on what you see as the most important investment priorities for NC over the next decade – more money in maintenance vs. new construction? • Use the large spreadsheet on your table to document your decisions/take notes and enter the final dollars amounts per transportation category into the laptop
Participant Expectations • Afternoon Session Breakout Discussion • Nominate someone at your table to be the facilitator • Sit in groups with others from your Division • Discuss your views of where transportation dollars subject to equity should be allocated amongst programs within your respective NCDOT Division (highways, bridges, bicycle/pedestrian, ferry). • Participants will have to make tough decisions on where to recommend using limited resources. • Engage your group on what you see as the most important equity based investment priorities for your Division over the next decade – more money in bridges vs. new roads? • Use the large spreadsheet on your table to document your decisions/take notes and enter the final dollars amounts per transportation category into the laptop
