CALIFORNIA TRANSPORTATION PLAN 2040 TECHNICAL ADVISORY COMMITTEE, PART 2 April 25, 2013

Today’s Goals  Goal 1: Identify definition and implementation of Surface Transportation GHG Reduction Strategies  Goal 2: Discuss fiscally constrained “anticipated” or “reasonably available” revenues contained with RTP/SCS and fiscally unconstrained project gap.  How do we apply strategies on a statewide basis without double counting regional strategies?  How do we identify additional projects beyond 2035?

Goal 1  GHG Reduction Groups  Vehicle Efficiency  Low-Carbon Fuels  VMT Moderation or Reduction  Vehicle/System Operation  Construction, Maintenance, Operation, and Administration of Transportation System

Goal 1  VMT Moderation  Strategy Clusters Pricing Transportation Alternatives Mode Shift

Goal 1:VMT Moderation  Pricing  VMT fee  Congestion Pricing  Cordon Pricing  Tolling  Carbon-taxes or cap-and-trade programs that raise fuel prices  Pay-as-you-drive insurance  Parking fees  Reduce parking capacity

Goal 1:VMT Moderation  Transportation Alternatives  Telecommute programs  Alternative work schedules  Carpool/vanpool programs for both work and non- work trips  Car sharing programs

Goal 1:VMT Moderation  Mode Shift  Expand transit, bike, pedestrian, HSR services  Expand rail, air, marine, freight cargo

Goal 2  MTC’s Regional Gas Tax  Regional gas tax revenues included in the financially constrained plan represent revenues collected from a regional 10 cent excise tax on gasoline beginning in FY The revenue is base on the Bay Area’s share of the statewide gasoline consumption.  SCAG’s VMT Fee  Mileage-based user fees would be implemented to replace gas taxes – estimated at about $0.05 per mile starting in 2025 and indexed to maintain purchasing power. This funding source was considered to be reasonably available and are included in the financially constrained plan.

Goal 2  Some of the RTP/SCS’s horizon year is 2035, yet the CTP’s horizon year is  This gap has been identified to be addressed in the CSTDM update.  Do any TAC members have any suggestions on how they would like their fiscally unconstrained projects included?

Meeting Wrap-Up  Questions/Comments  Next meeting scheduled for May 23, 2013  Topics:  Continue strategies discussion  Provide strategies framework to 2 nd PAC meeting  Suggestions?
