9 Projected Growth and Transportation Funding shortfall of $3.14 billion for transportation improvements in the region s long-range plan Congestion will cost the region $11.8 billion in delays in 2025 From 1995 to 1999, vehicle miles traveled (VMT) increased 18.4%, while signal and congestion delay time increased 37% Growth in VMT and congestion threatens air quality conformity

10 HISTORICAL TRENDS FOR 1-HOUR OZONE EXCEEDANCES DFW Nonattainment Area Highest Number of Exceedances at any Given Monitor Attainment Goal * Consecutive 3-Year Periods *Attainment Goal - According to the US EPA National Ambient Air Quality Standards, attainment is reached when there are no more than 3 exceedances per monitor within a consecutive 3-year period. Source: NCTCOG Transportation Dept September 2005

11 Projected Growth and Air Quality Urbanized area of the region violates both the 1-hour and 8-hour federal health standard for ground level ozone Transportation Funding is dependent on air quality conformity Mobile Sources are the leading cause of Nitrogen Oxide emissions Energy efficiency measures needed to reduce point source emissions from power plants On-Road Vehicles 50% Non-Road Engines 36% Point 10% Area 4% Source: Revisions To The State Implementation Plan for the Control of Ozone Air Pollution - Attainment Demonstration for the Dallas/Fort Worth Ozone Nonattainment Area, TNRCC, February 24, 1999, Figure 2.7-4

12 NCTCOG Regional Response Highland Park Village, Courtesy of Scott Polikov Target the Land Use Transportation Connection as a Long-term Air Quality Improvement Strategy Can I walk from here to there?

13 The Regional Transportation Council s Sustainable Development Policy Utilize Existing System Capacity Single use area type, non-transit, connected to existing infrastructure Infill rail Infill mixed use with rail access Commuter rail/light rail in single use areas Improve Rail Mobility Infill mixed use Mixed use with rail Promote Mixed Use Stand alone mixed use Improve Access Management Shared drives/parking, spacing of turns/signals

14 Local Strategy Improve Transportation Access to Infill Developments Cockrell Hill Interchange Example Completion Date: 2001 Project Cost: $16.2 million Increase in Total Value: (Land and Improvements) $4.8 million $193.4 million Cockrell Hill at I-30 (2000) Developing employment nodes in low income areas reduces vehicle miles traveled by older vehicles and improves air quality Cockrell Hill at I-30 (2004)

15 Local Strategy: Adopt Density, Building Use And Design Criteria Consistent With Historic Downtown Developments Central Fort Worth Example Wide range of housing and employment options are available within or a short distance from the city center Combination of land uses are arranged for pedestrians Building fronts and sidewalks are regulated to a pedestrian friendly form Transit service is effective and allows for maximum of activity while minimizing air quality impacts

16 Local Strategy: Establish A Zone Where TOD Can Be Accepted And Marketable McKinney Avenue Trolley Example Pre WWII - Part of Dallas original trolley car system 1950 s - Service abandoned 1980 s - Public and private partnerships develop to restore service in s - Trolley service helps to define and brand the surging Uptown District Current - Service extensions increase functionality and use; both the trolley and walking in the district improve air quality

17 Local Strategy Expand Rail Access Dallas Area Rapid Transit Example % greater increase in commercial valuations around DART Stations than control areas % greater increase in multifamily residential valuations around DART Stations than control areas % greater increase in office valuations around DART Stations than control areas $3.3 billion in new investment has been announced, broken ground or been planned near DART Stations since Data reported by the University of North Texas

18 NCTCOG Scenario Planning Rail Alternative Future Test Increased Transit Oriented Development And Preservation of Rural Areas Regional Control Total: 8.4 million people in the Metropolitan Planning Area in 2030

19 Regional Rail System

20 MARKET DEMAND FOR HOUSING NEAR TRANSIT Conservative Analysis* 25% of future households will desire a transit zone.** 2,344,320 additional people by 2025 = 586,080 new people desiring a transit zone household 100 new stations planned by 2025 = 24 units/per acre net needed at each new station * Market Includes New Households and Stations Only ** National Market Demand Study for 2025, Transit Zone is Defined as the ¼ Mile Radius Around a Rail Station.

21 Sensitivity Analysis 1 Benefits of Alternative Demographic Scenarios Data of Interest Rail Scenario 2 Infill Scenario 3 MPA Rail Transit Boardings + 52% + 9% MPA Vehicle Miles Traveled - 6% - 5% Total Vehicle Hours of Delay % % Lane Mile Needs % % Financial Transportation Needs (billions) - $9.5 - $6.7 Roadway Pavement Needs sq. mi sq. mi. NOx Emissions (Nitrogen Oxides) - 4.1% - 3.9% 1. Sensitivity Analysis of 2030 transportation system changing population and employment trends occurring between 2010 and Alternative demographic scenario that redistributed population and employment to rail areas 3. Alternative demographic scenario that redistributed population and employment to infill areas

22 Sample Local Land Use Policies with Transportation Benefit Expand direct access to freight rail for truck dependent businesses Promote multiple intense development centers Increase population and employment at rail stations Encourage central city and southern sector growth Address mobility needs around rail stations to mitigate localized congestion Limit residential densities away from rail service and existing employment centers Preserve large lots/small farms in rural/suburban areas

23 2001 Sustainable Development Call for Projects October 2001, RTC Approval 19 Land Use/Transportation Projects 1 Rail Corridor Study of 10 Corridors 1 Outreach Program: Center of Development Excellence $40.8 million in federal funds (CMAQ and STP-MM)

24 2001 Sustainable Development Call for Projects Lessons Learned NCTCOG should provide a clear definition of project types that reduce vehicle miles traveled early in the process. NCTCOG should provide more education on federal requirements regarding funding, air quality conformity steps, and the TxDOT process. City council endorsement of the development partner and prioritization of individual projects is needed. Local zoning/development regulations allowing the proposed project need to be in place by the submission deadline. Local government funds need to be identified and available. There should be more coordination between NCTCOG, the local government, and the developer on the specific capital investment strategy. * Funding will be removed from all projects awarded in the 2001 Call for Projects that do not have a signed LPAFA by January 20, 2006.

25 2005 Sustainable Development Call for Projects The Regional Transportation Council Approved $40.61 million to promote development types that reduce the overall demand for transportation infrastructure and improve air quality.
