Life Cycle of a Candidate Project How it’s planned. How it’s scored. How it’s funded. Long-range, statewide Must meet a need in VTrans Removes the 40-30-30 formula put in place in by the 1986 Special multimodal policy plan. 2040 to be scored. Session legislation. Serves two functions and Project located within one of FY17-20 (funds not programmed to produces two independent, but following areas: connected documents: • Corridors of Statewide projects distributed to • High Priority Projects statewide • VTrans2040- 25 year vision Significance – 50% document • Regional Networks • District Grant Program – 50% • VTrans2040- Multimodal • Improvements to promote Effective FY 21 Transportation Plan (VMTP) urban development areas • Or addresses an identified • State of Good Repair – 45% • High-Priority Projects Program safety need (Statewide) – 27.5% • District Grant Programs – 3 27.5%

Funding Subject to HB22 What funds are subject to HB2? • Funds that are subject to HB2 include state and federal highway funds (small proportion of total funding over 6 years) • Legislation excluded the following projects and types of funding from the prioritization process:  Asset management  Revenue sharing  Regional revenues  CMAQ federal funds  Highway Safety federal funds  Transportation Alternatives funding 4

Funds Available for 77711 Funding Available for HB2 and State of Good Repair (SGR) (in millions) * Amounts Subject to Revision 5

HB2 Project Types Eligible Project Types: Project Types Excluded: • Highway improvements • Asset Management  Widening projects  Structurally deficient  Operational bridges improvements  Reconstructive paving  Access management  Routine maintenance • Transit and rail capacity  Transit and Rail State of expansion projects Good Repair projects • Transportation demand management  Van Pools  Park & Ride facilities  Telecommuting • Passenger Rail 6

HB2 Factor Areas Goals that guided measure development: • Safety – reduce the number and rate of fatalities and severe injuries • Congestion – reduce person hours of delay and increase person throughput Accessibility – increase access to jobs and travel options • • Economic Development – support economic development, improve goods movement and improve travel time reliability • Environmental Quality – improve air quality and avoid impacts to the natural environment • Land Use – support transportation efficient land development patterns 7
