  1. California Transportation Plan 2040 Technical Advisory Committee, Part 2 April 25, 2013

  2. Today’s Goals • Goal 1: Identify definition and implementation of Surface Transportation GHG Reduction Strategies • Goal 2: Discuss fiscally constrained “anticipated” or “reasonably available” revenues contained with RTP/SCS and 2035 -2040 fiscally unconstrained project gap. • How do we apply strategies on a statewide basis without double counting regional strategies? • How do we identify additional projects beyond 2035?

  3. Goal 1 • GHG Reduction Groups • Vehicle Efficiency • Low-Carbon Fuels • VMT Moderation or Reduction • Vehicle/System Operation • Construction, Maintenance, Operation, and Administration of Transportation System

  4. Goal 1 • VMT Moderation • Strategy Clusters • Pricing • Transportation Alternatives • Mode Shift

  5. Goal 1:VMT Moderation • Pricing • VMT fee • Congestion Pricing • Cordon Pricing • Tolling • Carbon-taxes or cap-and-trade programs that raise fuel prices • Pay-as-you-drive insurance • Parking fees • Reduce parking capacity

  6. Goal 1:VMT Moderation • Transportation Alternatives • Telecommute programs • Alternative work schedules • Carpool/vanpool programs for both work and non-work trips • Car sharing programs

  7. Goal 1:VMT Moderation • Mode Shift • Expand transit, bike, pedestrian, HSR services • Expand rail, air, marine, freight cargo

  8. Goal 2 • MTC’s Regional Gas Tax • Regional gas tax revenues included in the financially constrained plan represent revenues collected from a regional 10 cent excise tax on gasoline beginning in FY 2017-18. The revenue is base on the Bay Area’s share of the statewide gasoline consumption. • SCAG’s VMT Fee • Mileage-based user fees would be implemented to replace gas taxes – estimated at about $0.05 per mile starting in 2025 and indexed to maintain purchasing power. This funding source was considered to be reasonably available and are included in the financially constrained plan.

  9. Goal 2 • Some of the RTP/SCS’s horizon year is 2035, yet the CTP’s horizon year is 2040. • This gap has been identified to be addressed in the CSTDM update. • Do any TAC members have any suggestions on how they would like their fiscally unconstrained projects included?

  10. Meeting Wrap-Up • Questions/Comments • Next meeting scheduled for May 23, 2013 • Topics: • Continue strategies discussion • Provide strategies framework to 2nd PAC meeting • Suggestions?
