1. Presentation to the Central Lane MPO Policy Committee March 08, 2012 Oregon Sustainable Transportation Initiative Statewide Transportation Strategy Statewide Transportation Strategy Update Amanda Pietz Interim Planning Unit Manager Oregon Department of Transportation

2. The Charge Legislative Directive In 2010, Oregon Legislature passed SB 1059 Planning to reduce GHG emissions in transportation Statewide Transportation Strategy (STS) Includes Statewide Transportation Strategy (STS) Aid in achieving Oregon’s GHG emissions reduction goals 75% reduction below 1990 levels by 2050 Interpretation Look out to 2050 Strive for ways transportation and land use can create better options for Oregonians, enhance livable communities, and promote health by searching for innovative solutions to reduce the potential impacts of climate change Highlight approaches that show the greatest potential for helping us get to where we want to get

3. Look into the future Out to 2050 The Pieces

4. The Phases

5. The Development Test transportation and land use options Land Use Change Vehicle Fuel Efficiency ITS and Technology Mode Share Pricing and Markets Evaluate potential outcomes Outputs GHG Emissions Energy Consumption Travel and System Performance Economic Impact Land Use and Resource Impacts Public Health Impacts Infrastructure and Implementation Costs Potential Implementation Risks Research and Analysis Level of intensity Inputs Select the mix of strategies with the best potential outcomes (Recommendations) Phase I

6. The Recommendations – Ground More Efficient Vehicles Cleaner Fuels Eco-Driving Mixed-Use Development Car Sharing Pay-As-You-Drive Insurance Transit Growth Phase I

7. More efficient freight vehicles Efficient industrial land use Efficient mode choices Idle reduction technology The Recommendations – Freight Phase I

8. Reduce carbon intensity of aviation fuel Optimize airline operations and fleet management Accelerate implementation of FAA “Next Generation” The Recommendations – Air Phase I

9. The Vision Broad vision for 2050 Description of what our future could look like and the benefits of getting there – designed to generate excitement about what the future could be. The same actions we can employ to reduce carbon emissions also allow us to: accommodate new residents reduce traffic delay maintain a healthy environment improve public health accommodate movement of goods reduce dependency on foreign energy save Oregonians money. Phase I

10. The Findings Technology is a significant strategy for all travel markets That said, there is no silver bullet There are low-cost short-term strategies we can start soon e.g. education around eco-driving Some strategies are complicated and need further analysis We must all work together Partnerships and collaboration is key Phase I

11. The STS – What is it? Identifies potential approaches for substantially reducing GHG while fostering other societal goals for Oregon Charts a general course; can adapt to unforeseen opportunities Is not regulatory Does not assign responsibility Each jurisdiction will have flexibility in what they choose to do We can try to make it easier for some things to occur We are willing to partner and work together Phase I

12. The Next Steps Prepare the STS document for outreach Go to the OTC prior to outreach Start outreach Get feedback on key priorities OTC public hearing Meet with STS committee Take to OTC for adoption Phase I April May July August October

13. Overall Next Steps – Phase II and III Phase II: FY-2012 Develop Implementation Plan Economic assessment of the STS actions Identification of performance measures, policy changes, programs, timelines, and responsibilities and partnership opportunities Begin implementing near-term actions Phase III: FY-2013 – on-going Implement mid- and long-term actions Assessment and adjustment timeline & elements Monitor and adjust as needed
