2 Remarks from the Chair Roadmap to June 30 th Review of proposed scoring system New objectives Incorporating cost effectiveness Weights Next steps Public Comment Today s Agenda 2

3 The Plan Ahead April 1: Project mix April 15: Illustrative projects testing May 1: Revisions and process May 15: Present draft report outline June 1: Discuss draft report June 30: Final report 3

4 Efficient Project Delivery Local Support Ability to obtain necessary environmental permits Bonus New Objectives MBTA SGR alignment with CIP criteria 4

5 Incorporate cost effectiveness measures into benefit screen: Cost per user Cost per time savings Cost per new unit of service Cost per unit change in condition Etc. New Approach to Cost 5

6 MassDOT (Auto, Bike, & Ped modes) SGR Primary Criteria Objectives Weight System Preservation Ensure preservation of existing 55 infrastructure Mobility and Access Improve reliability Economic Development Support economic development goals Cost Effectiveness Cost per AADT Cost per Lane Mile Cost per Unit Change in Condition Bonus Extra points for improvements that create or improve modal options, increase speed/efficiency (PMT), or for projects that have a benefit that has not been addressed Safety Reduce the frequency and severity of collisions 5 6

7 MassDOT (Auto, Bike, & Ped modes) Capacity/Expansion Primary Criteria Objectives Weight Cost Effectiveness Cost per AADT 45 Cost per Lane Mile Cost per Travel Time Savings Local Support Advance projects with strong local legislative support Environment/Efficient Project Ease of obtaining the required Delivery environmental/row permits Mobility and Access Support modal options Improve efficiency Economic Development Support economic development goals Health/Environment Reduce GHG 5 Safety Reduce frequency and severity of collisions for all modes Equity Target underserved communities 5 5 7

8 MBTA System Preservation Primary Criteria Objectives Weight *System Preservation SGR Database Rating Lifecycle Management Reduce Environmental Vulnerability *Operations Impact (Includes reliability, Improve Customer Experience safety, comfort) Operations Critical Number of Riders Affected Operational Sustainability Cost Effectiveness/Financial Considerations Cost/ rider Cost/mile Cost/minute of travel time savings Impact on Operating Costs Impact on Operating Revenue *Impact on the Environment/Alignment to Reduce Pollution and GreenDOT objectives Consumption of Natural Resources (Reduce GHG) Promote Mode Shift Economic Development Support economic development goals

9 RTA System Preservation Primary Criteria Objectives Metric Points Preservation Ensure preservation of existing 50 infrastructure Economic Development Support long-term economic competitiveness of the Commonwealth Mobility Improve reliability Bonus Extra points for improvements that create or improve modal options, increase speed/efficiency (PMT), or for projects that have a benefit that has not been addressed. Cost Effectiveness/Financial Considerations Cost/ rider Cost/mile Cost/minute of travel time savings Impact on Operating Costs Impact on Operating Revenue Safety/Security Reduce frequency and severity of collisions 5 Health/Environment Reduce GHG 5 9

10 MBTA/RTA Expansion Primary Criteria Objectives Weight Cost Effectiveness/ Financial Cost/new rider 40 Considerations Cost/mile of new service Cost/minute of travel time savings (for capacity, not expansion) Impact on Operating Costs Impact on Operating Revenue Local Support Advance projects with strong local legislative support Environment/Efficient Project Delivery Ease of obtaining the required environmental/row permits Health/Environment Reduce pollution and consumption of natural resources (Reduce GHG) Mobility Support modal options Improve efficiency Economic Development Support economic development goals Equity Target underserved communities 5 Safety/Security Reduce identified threats to safety 5

11 Discussion Questions Will all of these metrics effectively differentiate between projects? Are we missing any important differentiators? Should we have bonus points? Negative points? 11
