1 MINISTRY OF TRANSPORTATION ONTARIO MANAGING OUR ASSETS Financial Management Institute of Canada November 19, 2008

2 Ministry s Assets Mature network - large inventory Over 16,500 km Over 2,800 bridges 8 ferries, 29 remote airports, 2 tunnels $57.92B to replace new Economically vital $1.2 trillion of goods annually 5 busiest border crossings 74% Canadians drive to work 75% U.S. trade transport by truck Over $2.0B capital program in 2008/09 2

3 Ministry s Assets Pavements Bridges and structures Culverts and drains Lighting and traffic signals Signs and sign structures Guiderail and median barriers Noise barriers Road weather sensing stations Truck inspection stations COMPASS traffic information Patrol yards Ferries 3

4 What is Asset Management? A comprehensive business strategy employing people, information and technology to allocate available funds amongst competing asset needs Quantifies relationship between outcome based performance targets, funding levels and infrastructure deficit Supports justification for funding new and existing infrastructure assets Enables trade-off analysis and decisions, using a full life cycle approach Asset Management is the right investment in the right place at the right time 4

5 Principles of Asset Management Must know Which assets we own Where the assets are How much the assets are worth What are the asset lifecycles What condition the assets are in (now and in future) What, when and how much investment is needed to maintain the assets In Ontario, ministries involved in capital assets to have an Asset Management Plan. 5

6 Why do we need AM? Improve asset stewardship Aging Ontario infrastructure Growing funding pressures Greater accountability required Ontario infrastructure worth $240B MTO assets worth $46B, 19% of total High competition for funding 6

7 Bridges and Annual Bridge Needs ($M) # Bridges and Annual Bridge Needs ($M) # Bridges Annual Bridge Needs

8 Putting Asset Management Into Practice 8

9 Corridor Investment Plans (CIP) Identify and define deficiencies within highway corridors 25-year plan to identify needs and plan for the future Compare highways with similar role and function Analysis of full agency costs - life cycle costing (capital and operating) for assets Platform for making trade-off decisions between various highways or between improvement types Brings all functions/investments together 9

10 Performance Measures - Current Performance Measures reported to Central Agencies Winter (time taken to regain bare pavement following snow storms) Pavements (percentage in good condition) Bridges (percentage in good condition) Internal Measures Percentage of highway capital spent on actual construction (Target 80%) Highway asset value 10

11 Assessing Pavement Condition Highway network divided into 1700 pavement sections generally of uniform age and structure average of 10 km in length Pavement Condition Index measured annually Ride measured mechanically (IRI) Distresses assessed visually (DMI) PCI is from Rut Depths measured annually with ARAN 11

12 ARAN 12

13 Pavement Condition Highway # 3, PCI # 85 Highway # 26, PCI # 42 13

14 Assessing Bridge Condition Inventory and inspection data for bridges and large culverts Analytical capabilities to generate individual bridge needs and conduct network analysis Direct entry of field inspection data using field computers and digital cameras 14

15 Bridge Components 15

16 OBMS Inspection Data Inspect every 2 years Data collection Quantity of defects in each of 4 condition states (Excellent, Good, Fair, Poor) recorded Maintenance needs and recommended work required Photographs of areas with defects 16

17 MTO s Asset Management Tools Priority Economic Analysis Tool (PEAT) Economic evaluation (benefit/cost, Net Present Value) Trade-Off Analysis Non-economic indicators such as industry capacity, access to municipalities, mobility Matrix ranking methodology Highway Infrastructure Business Solutions (HIBS) A suite of tools and data for consistent planning (highways, bridges, linear/spatial referencing) 17

18 Investment Planning Cycle

19 Pavement Deterioration 19

20 Major Rehab on Bridge or Replacement Various Concrete Repairs Barrier Walls, Railings Major Deck Rehabilitation Replace Asphalt on Deck (every 15 yrs) 15 yrs 30 yrs 45 yrs 60 yrs 75 yrs Age of Structure Deck Barrier and Railing 1 Beams Wingwall Abutment Pier 20

21 Life Cycle Costing of Pavement Rehabilitation

22 Life Cycle Costing (LCC) LCC is an economic assessment of competing pavement design alternatives Considers all significant costs to the owner over the life of the pavement expressed in terms of equivalent present day dollars Used to determine most cost effective rehabilitation or new pavement design Used on alternate-bid contracts (asphalt vs. concrete) 22

23 The Challenge Establish a strategy to ensure we have a long term capital program that prioritizes investment strategies which Provide safe and efficient movement of people and goods Delivers an appropriate infrastructure asset condition and Ensures the most effective use of limited funding 23

24 5-Year Rehabilitation Needs and Accomplishments Every 5 years we should address 33% of our pavements: km 15% of our bridges: bridges Forecast accomplishments for the next 5 years Pavements: 1300 km Bridges: 200 bridges 24

25 Investment Priorities, Strategies and Directions Decision Focus highway infrastructure investments on bridges and pavements Investments in Operational Improvements by exception. Reduce indirect costs 25

37 The Border Transportation Partnership Detroit River International Crossing Study 37

38 Purpose of the DRIC Study Provide for the safe, efficient and secure movement of people and goods across the Canada-U.S. border Construct a new end-to-end transportation system that will link Highway 401 to the U.S. Interstate system with inspection plazas and a new river crossing in between 38

39 Purpose of the DRIC Study The study must address the following regional transportation and mobility needs Provide new border crossing Improve system connectivity Improve operations and processing capabilities Provide reasonable and secure crossing options The Study Team seeks to implement transportation solutions which minimize community and environmental impacts as much as possible. In particular, the Canadian Study Team is looking to address the local communities goals to Improve quality of life Take trucks off local streets Improve traffic movement across the border 39
