1 The Roads to New Hampshire’s Future

2 Transportation excellence enhancing the quality of life in New Hampshire Mission

3 Preserve Existing Infrastructure – bridges, roads Maintain Mobility Improve Safety Support the Economy Strategic Direction – 4 Step Approach

4 Roads in need of repair cost each NH motorist an average of $330 annually in extra vehicle operating costs - $300 million statewide. China invested last year; $108B or 9% of GDP into Transportation Infrastructure, vs. USA will spend 1.7% GDP, with Canada 4%. GDP – Message is USA continues to lag behind competing countries. NH “Highway Fund” includes gas tax “road toll”, registrations and court fines: NH “Turnpike Fund is a separate fund (Enterprise Account) Transportation Factoids

5 1,650 permanent employees (FY14) – 20% steady decrease since 1992 Responsible for: 2,143 State Bridges State Red List – 145 (8%) State Near Red List – 261 1,685 Municipal Bridges Municipal Red List – 353 (21%) All bridges are inspected at least once every two years State red list bridges are inspected twice every year Municipal red list bridges are inspected once every year 4,559 centerline miles of roadway maintained (additional 290 town maintained) 8,868 lane-miles of roadway maintained Annual paving totals 200-300 miles per year (40,000 tons asphalt) Maintain 100,000 highway signs Key Facts About DOT

9 GACIT Process –DRAFT Plan, Financially Constrained Work in progress –Public Hearing Input Regional priorities and needs –GACIT Recommendation to Governor – December 2013 –Governor Recommendation to Legislature – January 2014 –Legislative approval – June 2014

10 I-93 Funding NH’s #1 Priority I-93 Funding NH’s #1 Priority No Current Financing Plan $250 M Unfunded Remaining Needs Not in Ten Year Plan – Capacity Improvements Exit 3 NB to I-293 split (excl. Exit 5) Financial plan delivered to FHWA – remaining I-93 project in jeopardy without statement of legislative intent to fully fund project Environmental Permits lapse in 2020 Exit 4A – not funded Continuing Negative Impact on Ten Year Plan – 2030

11 Prioritizing Resources NH Road System (4,559 mi) 1.National Highway System (NHS)(790 mi-18%) Turnpikes Interstates Select US Routes Select State Numbered Routes 2.US Routes and State Numbered Routes (2,799 mi – 61%) 3.Unnumbered State Roads (970 mi-21%)

12 New Hampshire Pavement Conditions: 1996-2016 ADDITIONAL $12M PER YEAR NEEDED 1. Influenced by additional ARRA funding 2. 2004 data is not included due to known problems with the data collection vehicle.

14 Average Price of Asphalt Cement 1992 to 2012  The cost of asphalt cement increased 460% over this period  Diesel, gasoline, road salt increases…..

15 Statewide Pavement Condition  19 % good condition - 828 miles  44 % fair condition - 1,867 miles  37 % poor condition - 1,565 miles  $615 million would be needed to bring all poor condition pavements to good condition (not including drainage, guard rail & bridges)  $3.7 billion is the estimated total value of the state-owned pavements  Pavements are the State ’ s most valuable asset other than land and bridges (4,559 total centerline miles 299 unrated)

16 4,559 Miles The DOT Maintained road network would stretch from Concord, NH to Anchorage, AK Anchorage, AK Concord, NH A VERY LONG DRIVE!

17 Anchorage, AK Concord, NH Fargo, ND Lake Watson, Yukon Would your car survive? GOOD FAIR POOR Poor Road Conditions 4

18 NH Bridge Condition  Red List – Bridges where one or more major structural element is rated as poor condition or worse, or require weight limit posting.  Near Red List – Bridges where one or more major structural element is rated as fair condition.  Good – Bridges where no major structural element is rated as fair or poor.

19 New Hampshire Red List Bridges  Total Number of State owned bridges in 2011 = 2,143  Additional Investment of $15m per year would repair as many as 10 bridges depending on size and conditions

20 2012: 11 Municipal Bridges Closed

21 Status and Estimated Costs – State Red List Ten Year Plan rehab/replace 98 of the 140 State Red List bridges. $680 M (2012 dollars) to rehabilitate or replace the current State Red List bridges. 100 State bridges were replaced last 10 yrs. Current 10-Year Plan, 98 State bridges to be replaced =10/yr. +200 years to replace all 2,143 State bridges. $7.82 Billion is the estimated total value of the state-owned bridges

22 1 Turnpike System Overview 3 Turnpike Segments 89 Miles Long 170 Bridges 10 Toll Facilities Enterprise Fund – All Turnpike revenue must be used on the System Turnpike Revenue pays for: –Operating & Maintenance Costs –Debt Service –R&R Work –Capital Improvements FY12 $108.7M transactions and $116.6M toll revenue

23 Unfunded Projects in Current Capital Program form HB 391 – Session 2009 Authorization: Bedford ORT - $18M (FY15 Adv) Dover End of N-D Project - $80M (FY14 Adv) Proposed Expanded Capital Program Bow-Concord: I-93 Widening (I-89 to I-393) - $195M (FY18 Adv) Nashua-Bedford: FEET Widening (Exit 8 to I-293) - $70M (FY17 Adv) Manchester: Reconstruction of Exit 6 & FEET Widening - $88M (FY17 Adv) Manchester: New Interchange at Exit 7 - $54M (FY 18 Adv) Spaulding Turnpike Toll Facilities (ORT or AET) - $15M (FY16 Adv) Spaulding Turnpike Maintenance Facilities - $8M (FY14 Adv) Turnpike Administration Building - $7M (FY15 Adv) Nashua-Bedford ITS Infrastructure - $4M (FY15 Adv) Merrimack Exit 12 Toll Plaza Removal - $2M (FY15 Adv) Sarah Mildred Long Bridge ($2M Annual Capital Contribution) - $18M (FY14 Start) TYP 2013-2022 includes PE & ROW for Bow-Concord ($13.0M) and for Manchester Exit 6 & 7 ($14.0M) *Reference: Transportation Infrastructure Report 2011 – Building America’s Future: Falling Apart & Falling Behind Proposed Turnpike Expanded Capital Program Potential to create 14,000 jobs* over a ten year period

24 FUNDING OUTLOOK

25 Challenges Ahead Federal Reauthorization MAP-21 expires September 2014 Shrinking revenue from fuel efficient vehicles and less miles traveled due to recession One-time solutions–Not Sustainable Funding Rising Costs - Petroleum based business 54

26 Increased Fuel Efficiency = Less HWY Revenue

27 DOT FUNDING SOURCES Highway Fund (road toll tax a.k.a. gas tax, motor vehicle fees, court fees, misc.) $260 m/ year) -$48 m deficit FY16, -$105 m FY17 Operating Budget Federal Aid ($143 m/year) – Capital Budget General Funds: Aeronautics, Rail, Transit ($900,000/year) Turnpike Fund: Turnpikes only (subject to covenants to bondholders): $117m/year tolls

28 One-time Non-Sustainable Operating Funding FY 06-07 Surplus from Highway Fund FY 08-09 Bonding $60m FY 10-11 Registration Surcharge $90m I-95 Transfer $50m FY 12-13 I-95 Transfer $52m FY 14 -15 I-95 Transfer $ 30m FY 16 -17 Deficit -$48m & - $105m

29 Summary $22m / yr. : Complete I-93 widening project $250m $15m / yr. : Red List Bridge additional funding $12m /yr. : Road Paving to repair poor roads $35m / yr. : Maintenance & Operations of entire transportation system $20 / yr. : Municipal Road & Bridge Repair

30 The Roads to New Hampshire’s Future

31 In light of the recent Global Competitiveness Report rankings from the World Economic Forum on infrastructure quality which has listed the United States at 25th place—down from 9th place in 2009—such a major disruption to federal transportation investment will produce serious losses that threaten the gradual macroeconomic recovery seen in the last few years.
