1 Regional Transit Asset Management Performance Targets Transportation Operators Committee May 24, 2017

2 Transit Performance Measures Federal Requirements Transit Asset Management o Rolling Stock o Facilities o Infrastructure o Equipment Transit Safety o Fatalities o Injuries o Accidents o System Reliability

3 What is Transit Asset Management? Systematic Process for Transit Agencies to: Count and categorize their assets Inventory Assess condition of assets Use asset condition to rank assets in importance to system and agency Prioritize transit agency funding to improve or maintain assets identified as the highest priority Applicability: All fixed-route transit operators in the region and all ferry operators

4 MPO s Role in Transit Asset Management? The Final Rule indicates that MPOs should: Integrate transit agency Transit Asset Management plans into regional planning process Coordinate with transit providers to implement a performance-based planning process that prioritizes investments that meet regional performance targets for transit State of Good Repair. MPOs are being asked to assess progress toward region-wide attainment of transit State of Good Repair performance.

6 What Do Agencies Include In Transit Asset Management? Four categories of capital assets that must be included: Rolling Stock Facilities Infrastructure Equipment Agencies must include all capital assets in each of the categories that the agency owns, operates, or manages. Only assess condition of assets for which the transit agency has direct capital responsibility. What is the agency s financial obligation for replacement or refurbishment of the asset?

7 How Do Agencies Conduct Asset Assessments? Age-based, Useful Life Benchmark used for Rolling Stock and Nonrevenue service vehicles under Equipment category FTA provides default Useful Life Benchmarks for vehicles Agencies can set their own agency-specific Useful Life Benchmark for vehicles based on operating conditions Condition Assessment for Facilities and Construction or Maintenance Equipment 5-point scale (5.0 = Excellent; 1.0= Poor)

8 Transit Asset Management Performance Measures Asset Category Examples of Assets Covered Performance Measures Rolling Stock Rail vehicles, Buses, Ferries, Other passenger vehicles (vans, etc.) Facilities Passenger facilities like a rail station; Parking facilities; and Support facilities (e.g., transit base) Percent of those vehicles that have either met or exceeded their useful life benchmark (ULB). ULB is often expressed in a number of years. The percentage of facilities within an asset class, rated below an Adequate condition (e.g., a condition 3 on the Transit Economic Requirements Model [TERM] scale). Infrastructure Fixed Guideway, Signal systems, Power, and Structures (bridges and tunnels) Equipment Non-revenue service vehicles such as tow trucks; Construction or maintenance equipment The percentage of track segments with performance restrictions. Percent of non-revenue service vehicles that have either met or exceeded their useful life benchmark (ULB). Percent of construction and maintenance facilities rated below Adequate condition.

9 Transit Asset Management Setting Performance Targets Performance targets should be based on realistic expectations, including Use of most recent data available Incorporate transit provider financial resources from all sources during planning period Performance targets will change year-to-year based upon Aging of fleet and changing facility conditions Funding replacements or refurbishment of capital assets

10 Converting Agency Targets into Regional Performance Performance Targets Targets Regional Targets are informed by the agency transit asset management planning and inventories Regional Targets are NOT the same a agency-specific targets Weighted average of all agencies with assets in a particular asset class

11 Regional Rolling Stock ASSET CLASS EXAMPLES OF INDIVIDUAL ASSETS REGIONAL PERFORMANCE TARGET Bus 40-foot bus Articulated bus Double-decked bus Other Passenger Vehicles Vans Minivans Rail Vehicles Light rail vehicles Commuter rail vehicles Streetcars Ferries Auto ferries Passenger only ferries No more than 2% of buses meet or exceed their Useful Life Benchmark (ULB) No more than 28% of other passenger vehicles meet or exceed their Useful Life Benchmark (ULB) No more than 0% of railcars meet or exceed their Useful Life Benchmark (ULB) No more than 5% of ferries meet or exceed their Useful Life Benchmark (ULB)

12 Regional Facilities ASSET CLASS EXAMPLES OF INDIVIDUAL ASSETS REGIONAL PERFORMANCE TARGET Support Facilities Maintenance Facilities Administrative Facilities Passenger Facilities Rail Terminals Bus Transfer Facilities Parking Facilities Parking Garages Park-and-Ride Lots No more than 11% of support facilities rated below Adequate on the 5-point condition assessment scale No more than 0% of passenger facilities rated below Adequate on the 5-point condition assessment scale No more than 7% of parking facilities rated below Adequate on the 5-point condition assessment scale

13 Regional Infrastructure ASSET CLASS EXAMPLES OF INDIVIDUAL ASSETS REGIONAL PERFORMANCE TARGET Fixed Guideway Track Segments Exclusive bus right-of-way segment No more than 3% of fixed guideway track segments have performance restrictions

14 Regional Equipment ASSET CLASS EXAMPLES OF INDIVIDUAL ASSETS REGIONAL PERFORMANCE TARGET Non-revenue service vehicles Tow Trucks Emergency Response Vehicle Supervisor Car No more than 19% of meets or exceeds its Useful Life Benchmark (ULB) Construction Equipment Crane No more than 0% of construction equipment rated below Adequate on the 5-point condition assessment scale Maintenance Equipment Vehicle lift No more than 7% of maintenance equipment rated below Adequate on the 5-point condition assessment scale

15 Coordinated Plan: Prioritized Strategies & Performance Through Plan Update we will seek the answers to : How should needs, gaps and duplications be prioritized? Which strategies are higher priority than others? How can we measure performance of a program/project to tell if it is succeeding or failing? How should special needs Gil Cerise transportation funding from federal and state sources be prioritized gcerise@psrc.org though 2022?
