  10. Cost/Revenue Outlook • Costs Are Currently within Expected Revenues for All Life Cycle Programs. • Major Cost Issues Are Expected in the Future as Scoping, Design Concepts and Environmental Assessments are Completed.

  11. Cost/Revenue Outlook(Cont.) • Freeways/Highways Cost increases may have a substantial impact on the ability to deliver the freeway/highway program identified in the RTP within the originally anticipated schedule. • Arterial Streets Significant construction and right of way cost increases may result in some of the arterial street projects being reduced in scope or delayed, since the regional contributions to street projects are fixed and the ability of local jurisdictions to provide the increased funding may be limited. • Public Transit Given recent trends of escalating wages, fuel prices, and construction costs, over the long term pressure will increase to balance transit costs with available revenues.

  12. Next Steps • March – Conduct Mid-Phase Public Hearing. • April - Approve for Air Quality Analysis. • May – Perform Air Quality Conformity Analysis. • June – Conduct Final Phase Public Hearing. • July – Adopt 2007 Update.
