2050 Metropolitan Transportation Plan
Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana Regional Council of Governments
June 2019
New horizon year for the Plan will be 2050

2. 2050 OKI is updating the Metropolitan Transportation Plan
(a.k.a. the long range plan)
2050

3. Overview Prerequisite for federal funds Required update every 4 years
Minimum 20 year horizon
Conformity required (fiscal & AQ)
Multi-modal
Address the 10 Planning Factors
Moving now to our Plan Summary presentation…:
Permit me to share the Plan’s prerequisites – with which we must adhere, so that OKI may receive and invest federal funds for regional transportation improvements:
We are required to update the Plan document every 4 years
The Plan must contain a minimum 20 year planning horizon
The Plan must exhibit BOTH fiscal constraint and air quality conformity.
The Plan must be Multi-modal
The Plan must seek to provide safe and efficient movement of people and goods – thus reducing crash rates and congestion.
It is important to note that although the plan is updated every four years, we do have the ability to amend it as needed.

4. 10 Transportation Planning Factors
Support the economic vitality
Increase safety
Increase security
Increase the accessibility and mobility options
Protect and enhance the environment
Connectivity across & between modes, for people & freight
Efficient system management and operation
System preservation
Resiliency and reliability of the system and reduce or mitigate stormwater impacts of surface transportation
Enhance tourism

5. Transportation Planning Process
(Summer 2019)
Existing conditions Needs Assessment Account for changes
The usual stuff:
The update of this Plan has followed a traditional application of the transportation planning process:
First, staff worked with members, local and state agency representatives, and the public to IDENTIFY EXISTING and FUTURE transportation CONDITIONS
Second, all resources will be used to ANALYZE the region’s transportation NEEDS
We will conduct the typical inventory and needs assessment activities and track performance measure

6. Transportation Planning Process
(Summer 2019)
Existing conditions Needs Assessment Account for changes
New considerations since last plan update:
There has been a pretty significant change (additions) Uber/Lyft is an established option, scooters and e-bikes for short trips are out there now in CBDs of our region.
Connected and autonomous AV
What else?

7. What will the impacts of connected and autonomous vehicles be??
Planning for Change
What will the impacts of connected and autonomous vehicles be??
How quickly and in what form CAV saturation occurs (mostly vehicle based without a lot of infrastructure required VS a high dependency on infrastructure). Plus there is another dimension to consider…the amount of ride sharing which is closely related to the auto ownership model. Without ridesharing the system will have to deal with a lot more vehicle trips.

8. What will the impacts of connected and autonomous vehicles be??
Potential Changes in Investment Mix
What will the impacts of connected and autonomous vehicles be??
During this planning period we need to consider the impacts of changes in mode and autonomy the investment approach.
More/less/about the same. More infrastructure needed or less, what type. Do the modes exist as we know them today?
