Current Average Allocation for Pavement = 13 $45MM per year Traffic signalling HTA’s estimated steady state 33 CIP is $261.8M in hard costs Safety per year [1] Bridges 86 130 Pavement [1] HTA developed a long-term, steady-state CIP for its highway infrastructure it believes it needs to keep the highway system in a state of good repair and critical to HTA receiving full federal funds. To develop these funding levels, HTA used available data on asset condition, lifecycle, and historical costs. Following its initial analysis, HTA hired an outside engineering consultant to conduct a validation the CIP. After integrating the results of the external study, PRHTA estimates a steady-state CIP of $261.8M per year. * Includes both construction and soft costs and does NOT include CIP for Transit Asset 5
Projected Disbursements (Excluding EFLHD) Only in the next 5 years, it is expected a disbursement $500,000,000 projection totaling $1,684MM on regular $400,000,000 projects (Mostly in reconstruction $300,000,000 activities) From ER program, $200,000,000 additional disbursements in the $100,000,000 order of $700MM are anticipated in the $- same period of time.

Recent experience in construction cost increases: ◦ In May 23, 2018, based on limited information, FHWA projects were estimated to increase from $146.5 M to $184 M (26% increase) ◦ After having awarding about half the bids, the estimated increase is from$146.5 M to $214 M (46% increase) ◦ This increase is mostly attributable to hurricane Maria market effect 8
Innovation in Project Delivery – Use of Abbreviated PS&Es, Georeferenced videos for roadway condition assessments. Quality Assurance Program (Design) Design Build SOPs for Small Projects – Future consultation to Transportation Innovative Council – TIC) Update of Design Manual, Standard Specs and Standard Drawings Strategic Highway Safety Plan Transportation Asset Management Plan
• FHWA MOU (Financial, Billing, Electronic Bidding process) • Strengthening In-house offices with external resources (i.e., Procurement, Environmental, Design) • Outsourcing O&M of Toll Roads • Use of local funds for Pre-construction efforts, while maximizing FHWA funds to cover construction costs • Improving Cash Flow of Contractors/Suppliers • Project bundling to attract contractors from other jurisdictions • Strategic Partners 10

Safety + Reconstruction Infrastructure - Our Top Priorities Jan 26, 2017
90% (approx.) of the PRHTA’s projects to be procured in the next 6 years are focused on preservation / reconstruction and improving safety of our Highway highway infrastructure Safety Pavement Preservation / Reconstruction Bridge Preservation / Rehab / Replacement Program 13
PRHTA is managing an investment of $652MM in Reconstruction, where 80% or more are related to Pavement Preservation, Maintenance and/or reconstruction Pavement PEMOC Repair ABRIENDO $75MM $327MM CAMINOS PROGRAM FHWA Reconstruction $250MM 14

High Quality Pavement Repair 8/8/2019 16
Focused on preservation/maintenance of highly deteriorated pavements using higher standards and quality control. Divided in 4 phases: Phase Funding Priorities I $80,000,000 Priorities to Toll roads and primary system. About 30% of projects in Secondary and Tertiary System. Engaging mostly Asphalt Pavement II $80,000,000 Higher priority to Secondary and Tertiary system. Will Consider concrete pavement, pavement marking, and retroreflective pavement markers III $80,000,000 TBD – Based on current conditions and lessons learned IV $87,000,000 TBD – Based on current conditions and lessons learned 8/8/2019 17
Damage assessment using georeferenced video. Repair work is defined in Task Orders. Adjustments can be made during construction, based on contracted unit prices. Training to Contractor and Inspector on contract specs. Use of PRHTA’s standard specifications for asphalt mix (use of warm mix) Set of standard details for cold milling Material testing program (lab and field) Field Inspections 8/8/2019 18

PRHTA will be procuring $75MM (Phase II of High Quality Pavement Repair - HQPR) $5MM will be used for program/project management, data gathering, design, construction management and inspection services. PRIFA will assist PRHTA in procuring Phase II of HQPR Second Phase will include: ◦ Pothole Repair Contracts ◦ WTBP Contracts – including Potholes, Strips and Sections ◦ Sections Repair Contracts ◦ Pavement Marking Contracts ◦ Concrete Slab Replacement Contracts 26
PEMOC and FHWA Reconstruction Program 8/8/2019 27
Programa Estatal de Modernización de Carreteras (PEMOC) ◦ Main objective is the reconstruction of secondary and tertiary roadway system. ◦ Work includes cold milling, resurfacing, drainage improvements, safety devices, minor retaining walls, pavement marking and signing. ◦ 11 contracts islandwide with an investment of $75MM FHWA Reconstruction Program ◦ Highway Safety Improvements and Pavement Reconstruction ◦ 75% or more of funding is allocated for National Highway System (NHS) ◦ Closely coordinated with Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP). ◦ Includes bridge preservation, reconstruction and replacement 28
