mechanisms for the program and the metrics for the evaluation, including a

customer survey. Ms. Ogilvie noted that road calls for vehicles were an area that

did not meet the standard, but that these calls were down from the previous

evaluation. Gloria Mills wanted clarification on the formula that CTD uses for trip‐

counting procedures. Scott Clark provided clarification.

Becki Forsell asked Mr. Clark if he was coming to the CTC meeting in Tallahassee

and suggested asking for a motion to bring the issue forward and explain to

legislators. Ms. Forsell also wanted to know where HART was with the fare box

technology. Dr. Gordon wanted more information on the reliability of Sunshine

Line by the number of road calls. Sunshine Line just surplused the last 2007 vehicle.

Mr. Clark said that by 2018 the Sunshine Line should be back to their normal

schedule of vehicle replacements. Mr. Clark reported that 2016 had seen a decent

on time service report. The Fleet Director has advocated to get buses replaced and

Sunshine Line has been replacing the vehicles.

Following the presentation, Dr. Gordon made comments about the display of the

performance criteria and that it should read consecutively by year and moving left

to right so that it is easier to read.

MOTION by Artie Fryer to approve the CTC Evaluation and its

recommendations and transmit to the Florida Commission for the Transportation

Disadvantaged. The motion was seconded by Gloria Mills and carried.

Board members acknowledged work done by Tindale Oliver and staff on the report.

B. George Road Health Impact Assessment

Allison Nguyen, Florida Department of Health – Hillsborough and Wade Reynolds,

MPO staff presented the update.

Nancy Pacifico wanted clarification on the speed limit of the segment near Memorial

Hwy. Mr. Reynolds stated that it was 35 MPH on George Road.

Becki Forsell asked about statistics on crime in the area/related to costs for the project

for additional lighting and if that would take priority over sidewalks or other

improvements.

Mr. Reynolds stated that data is available from the last 5 years and that crime maps

are in the report. Ms. Ogilvie clarified that all the improvements are proposed as a

package.

Ms. Ogilvie stated that the report can be emailed to the board and that it is available

on the MPO’s website.

Nancy Pacifico mentioned the importance of lighting on Memorial Hwy.

Following the presentation, there were no questions.

MOTION by Artie Fryer, seconded by Kristina Melling to accept the report and

recommend approval to the MPO Board. The motion passed.

Forsell has been the representative in Tallahassee over the past few years. The

request is for Board approval.


4

Nancy Castellano plans on being in Tallahassee and struggles with the TD trips

provided vs. what the formula is in other places (suggested adding a footnote to

state how the count is made – counting mechanism vs. service point).

Dr. Barja made comments regarding being treating fairly in the allocation of

funding. Mr. Clark suggested a total of all three agencies to give a picture of what

the tri‐county region is doing or take out altogether. Ms. Forsell stated that she has

contacted all senators and has received 30 responses. Kristina Melling suggested

including client testimony to put a face on who we are serving. TD consumer served

(comparison of clients and who we served). Capture what the need and GAP are

and show what additional funds are needed and what they are needed for.

MOTION by Nancy Castellano, seconded by Becki Forsell. The motion carried

unanimously.

D. TDCB Appointee to the Citizen Advisory Committee

Wade Reynolds, MPO staff told the Board that the MPO Citizen’s Advisory

Committee is seeking a volunteer for the Transportation Disadvantaged appointee.

MOTION by Dr. Barja and seconded by Becki Forsell. Motion carried.

Nancy Castellano agreed to be the backup.

STATUS REPORTS

A. Northwest Transit Study

Sarah McKinley, MPO staff provided an update.


5

The study evaluated the use of transit in the area and how the population could best

be served noting that some of the lines were underperforming. A Metrorapid line

is planned for the Northwest Corridor and a flex route is proposed. Becki Forsell

mentioned that the Northdale area was not talked about and that all buses were

taken from this area; Ms. Forsell explained this are needs more transportation and

previously had better service. Ms. McKinley mentioned that HART does have a

Metrorapid route planned for Dale Mabry.

Nancy Castellano had questions regarding the Town ‘n Country Flex Route. Nancy

Pacifico wanted clarification on HyperLINK and thinks adding the Oldsmar and

Westchase areas is a nice addition.

There was extensive discussion on routes and ridership in the northwest.

Nancy Castellano asked how many surveys were sent out, Ms. McKinley clarified

that large numbers of surveys were distributed via email through Constant Contact

and through HART as well as at events in the community.

B. Transportation Disadvantaged Return on Investment – Hillsborough

Mr. Brandon Berry, MPO Intern presented the study and explained that these

trips include medical, training, nutrition, employment, and life sustaining

trips.

Dr. Gordon had an inquired about the assumption of benefits of medical and

nutritional trips. Nancy Castellano wanted to know what was included in the

number of trips (Ambulatory/non‐wheelchair trips). It was suggested to

include the benefits of medical & nutritional trips dollar figure being added to

the information that is being presented in Tallahassee in order to present these


6

statistics in the best possible way. It was suggested to include ambulance trips

as well. (The information will be used in the narrative)

C. Federal Transit Administration 5310 Applicants and Awards for Fiscal

Year 2016‐2017

Dave Newell, FDOT reported that applications were due in December. 35

applications were received from 29 agencies. As always there was more asked

for than funds available. Approximately $3.7 million was awarded last year.

A breakdown of the numbers will be sent out to Board.

Mr. Clark wanted to know if we could get the list and asked if vehicle life

expectancy information is available?

Mr. Clark suggested they we should advocate for funding with the 5310 funds

and that we should bring up when we go to Tallahassee.

D. Sidewalk Inventory and Construction Costs Update

Wade Reynolds, MPO staff provided an update on the presence of sidewalks

in all four jurisdictions.

Dr. Barja had a question regarding the cost of cement vs. the cost of installed

sidewalks.

Ms. Forsell said that she spoke with Representative Castor and there’s extra

money available from the federal government. If there’s money available, we

should be asking for it and protecting our population. Ms. Forsell suggested

that we get a proposal to Representative Castor to fund sidewalks in the area.


7

Councilman Cohen stated that he was in the process of getting information.

(Ms. Castor wanted to know if the group could get something together within

the next couple of months)

MOTION from Becki Forsell and seconded by Nancy Castellano to compile

the need and data on sidewalks and work with the jurisdictions to present a

proposal to Representative Castor (Mr. Reynolds restated the motion). The

motion was approved.

E. Sunshine Line Report

Mr. Scott Clark, Sunshine Line informed the Board of compliments that have

been received regarding drivers and staff. Two dimensions were added to the

door‐to‐door survey and there have been increased HART Plus passes.

Sunshine Line has started Saturday service and it has been extremely slow.

Also, they have started a pilot project with Aging Services with their active

seniors program.

Nancy Castellano wanted to know if the customer service representatives

informed seniors of Saturday services. They are working with Kemly (HART)

informing their customer service about Sunshine Line and use this as a joint

training opportunity. Also, they are having a call center school for customer

service representatives. By May/June they should be moved into a new facility.

A meeting with Hillsborough Hope, focusing on the elderly, took place this

year and looked at population growth of seniors and addressing transportation


8

needs. 12 buses are being purchased this year and 4 Toyota Siennas are being

replaced with MV1s.

MINUTES

I. CALL TO ORDER AND PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE

The public hearing was called to order by Vice Chair Gloria Mills at 6:07 PM and was held in the Plan Hillsborough Room on the 18th floor of the County Center Building. Roll Call and the Pledge of Allegiance were held at this time.

II. PUBLIC HEARING

Roll Call of Board Members: Dr. Fred Barja, Penelope Barnard, Kelly Kelley, Kristina Melling, Vice Chair Gloria Mills

Others present: Beth Alden, Wade Reynolds, Allison Yeh – MPO Staff, Greg Brackin, Gamal Gasser, Georgette Petit-Homme, Scott Clark, Karen Smith

Welcome (TDCB Chair, Councilman Cohen)

As Councilman Harry Cohen was not present, Vice Chair Gloria Mills welcomed the board members and public attendees.

Public Comment:

Georgette Petit-Homme suggested that ADA revise safety for customers using HARTPlus, recounting two customer service experiences she felt were not handled adequately. She also thanked the TDCB for making transportation available to everyone.

Gamal Gasser, a member of Hillsborough Organization for Progress and Equality, requested that the Board of County Commissioners set up an affordable housing trust fund. He also requested senior citizen care, such as providing elderly individuals transportation to a place of worship once per week. He suggested that individuals often

do not know about the services available to them, and recommended promotion or advertising.

Adjourn Public Hearing & Call Regular Meeting to Order:

Ms. Kelly Kelley moved to adjourn the public hearing at 6:14. Vice Chair Mills immediately called the next meeting to order.

III. ACTION ITEMS

A quorum was not reached during this meeting. While Community Transportation Coordinator Service Rate and Unified Planning Work Program Update presentations were held, members did not vote on these action items.

A. Approval of Minutes – February 24, 2017

A quorum was not reached, so approval of February 2017’s minutes was moved to the following meeting.

B. Community Transportation Coordinator (CTC) Service Rates for 2016/2017 (Karen Smith, Sunshine Line)

Ms. Karen Smith of Sunshine Line presented on the CTC service rate updates for 2016 and 2017. Ever year the CTC completes a rate worksheet, which determines the rates reimbursed for each trip provided. The CTC submits projected trips and miles for the following year, which determines rates for the following year’s grant. The CTC expects this year’s grant amount to be the same as for the prior year, which was approximately $2.1 million. From the prior year, the rates are increasing approximately 2%. Ms. Smith mentioned that the rates will need to be approved at the June 2017 meeting so that they are included in the grant agreement, and so that the language is included in the Transportation Disadvantaged Service Plan.

As the TDCB did not meet a quorum, no action was taken. There were no questions.

C. Transportation Disadvantaged Coordinating Board Grievance Procedures

A quorum was not reached, so the TDCB Grievance Procedures action item was moved to the following meeting.

D. Transportation Disadvantaged Coordinating Board By-laws

A quorum was not reached, so the TDCB By-laws action item was moved to the following meeting.

E. Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) Update (Allison Yeh, MPO Staff)

Ms. Allison Yeh of the MPO presented on the UPWP update, as the MPO is nearing the end of its fiscal year. The UPWP outlines major planning tasks, documents federal and state funding, ensures the MPO is complying with federal and state rules, and coordinates federally-funded planning tasks performed by the MPO, HART and FDOT. The purpose of the update is to make final adjustments to the Fiscal Year 2017 budget, update the budget and tasks based on annual funding allocations, and update administrative documents.

The UPWP contains the MPO’s six major planning tasks, including transportation planning management, system and corridor planning, the Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and data collection, the Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP), public participation, and local and regional coordination and planning. Ms. Yeh outlined the projects to be completed in FY 2017, continuing projects in FY 2017, and projects identified for FY 2018. She ended the presentation outlining the funding for the six UPWP tasks in FY 2017 and 2018.

As the TDCB did not reach a quorum, no action was taken. There were no questions.

IV. STATUS REPORTS

A. Plant City Walk-Bike Plan Update (Wade Reynolds, MPO staff)

Mr. Reynolds provided an update on the Plant City Walk-Bike Plan. The team is currently in the process of developing a draft plan, after which it will finalize the plan in May 2017. A public meeting was held in February, which produced additional points of interest for the plan and a general comment map. The plan is structured to provide a vision and executive summary, which includes a list of community priorities, an existing conditions assessment, recommendations, and an action plan. The priority projects for the Plan are providing a minimum grid for bikeways, a canal trail, and pedestrian safety improvements. Next steps will involve completing the assessment, identifying bicycle network facility recommendations, holding a steering committee meeting to finalize recommendations and policies, completing a draft document, and presenting the document to the Plant City City Commission. After the document is finalized, the Plan will be presented to the Hillsborough MPO Committees and Board.

There were no questions.

B. HARTPlus Customer Choice Voucher Program – 1st year report (Greg Brackin, HART)

Mr. Greg Brackin of HART presented on the first year report for the HARTPlus Customer Choice Voucher Program, also known as the paratransit voucher or Yellow Cab program. The program began in January 2016. As of March 2017, 56,606 trips have been taken using the Voucher Program. The current rate paid to Yellow Cab is $16 per trip of 7.6 miles or less, with a cost to the customer of $4. The Voucher Program has saved HART

over $1 million compared to providing the trips themselves, and has helped absorb the 8% growth rate in paratransit over prior years. Customer pick-up and drop-off metrics have improved in 2017 compared to 2016 metrics as well. Mr. Brackin ended the presentation with a discussion of recent updates, including HART’s Tesla last-mile rollout in the University Area.

Discussion ensued about the positive impact of the Yellow Cab program on planning for paratransit trips, managing peak time response, customer service call volume, and contract length.

C. Sunshine Line Report (Scott Clark, Sunshine Line)

Mr. Scott Clark reported on some of the compliments that the Sunshine Line recently received, and followed by presenting the March monthly report. In March 2017, 14,246 Sunshine Line trips were completed. That number is more than a 12% increase from previous months. Sunshine Line received 27 compliments, 2 complaints, and had a 93% on-time rate during this month. The average caller hold time for customers was 60 seconds, down from a standard of 120 seconds. Sunshine Line’s average cost per trip was $27.34 during this month.

Mr. Clark followed with a vehicle update. The purchase price of buses has increased to more than $80,000, resulting in Sunshine Line updating their fleet projections. Sunshine Line originally intended to purchase 16 buses, but have now decided to purchase 10 buses and six MV-1s. The MV-1s cost approximately $30,000 less up front and $37,000 less to maintain over their lifespan. Both vehicles are ADA compliant.

Discussion ensued about the cost per trip to Sunshine Line.

V. OLD BUSINESS & NEW BUSINESS

A. MPO Regional Coordination Structure Research & Best Practices Study (Beth Alden, MPO Director)

Ms. Beth Alden of the Hillsborough County MPO informed members of the Board about an upcoming stakeholder workshop regarding best practices for regional planning organizations. This workshop precedes independent research that will begin on July 1, 2017. The stakeholder workshop will be held at St. Petersburg College’s Collaborative Labs on Friday, May 12 from 10 AM to 2 PM, and the MPO will provide transportation to anyone who requests it. The workshop will involve four subjects, including how a regional planning organization should advance major regionally-significant partnerships, how cities and counties can maintain their unique character under a regional organization, the kind of planning that will ideally occur at the regional level, and how to house and pay for a regional organization. Interested members were informed to RSVP with Anthony Matonti.

Discussion ensued about how to confirm attendance and the location of the workshop.

ADJOURNMENT

There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 7:03 PM.

Board & Committee Agenda Item

Agenda Item: Community Transportation Coordinator (CTC) Eligibility Procedures Presenter: Michele Ogilvie, MPO staff and Kelly Kelley, Board Member Summary: Florida Administrative Code Chapter 41-2 establishes the Commission for

the Transportation Disadvantaged (CTD) with the assigned responsibility to accomplish the coordination of transportation services provided to the transportation disadvantaged. The statute also establishes the role of the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) as the designated official planning agency to perform long-range planning and assist the Commission and a Local Coordinating Board in implementing the transportation disadvantaged program in designated service areas. The Code includes the purpose and responsibilities of the Coordinating Board to identify local service needs and to provide information, advice, and direction to the Community Transportation Coordinator on the coordination of services to be provided to the transportation disadvantaged through the Florida Coordinated Transportation System. Each Coordinating Board is recognized as an advisory body to the Commission for Transportation Disadvanatged (CTD) in its service area. Recently, the CTD issued a letter stating that the eligibility process for the CTC-Sunshine Line “would not meet the requirement of obtaining an application and backup documentation in order to determine eligibility”. The letter is attached. The Planning Subcommittee of this Coordinating Board met on May 31, 2017 to discuss the letter from the CTD. The Subcommittee made the following observations: a. The Sunshine Line provides a safety net for essential door to door

transportation to clients within 2 days of eligibility including HARTPlus clients who may wait as long as 45 days for eligibility

b. The Sunshine Line eligibility process meets the standard for non- self-eligibility declaration

c. Sunshine Line serves 350 clients per month d. Implementation of a paper process will incur costs that cannot be

immediately absorbed by the agency e. The Priority for the Transportation Disadvantaged is RIDES, RIDES,

RIDES.

Agenda Item

HART Operations and Maintenance Feasibility Study

Presenter

Rick Sparer, AECOM and Allison Yeh, MPO staff

Summary

HART’s service area covers approximately 1,000 square miles in Hillsborough County. The existing Operations and Maintenance facilities, located at 4305 E. 21st Avenue, services its entire bus fleet of almost 200 vehicles, which includes variously-sized transit buses, para-transit vehicles, and staff vehicles. The fleet consists of diesel, gasoline and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) fueled vehicles. This operations and maintenance site is at maximum capacity. In addition to current overcrowding, changes in fleet size could occur due to expansion of para-transit services, adding additional CNG fueling tanks, or recommendations from on-going studies such as the Premium Transit Study or the Tampa Bay Next initiative. To efficiently respond to future needs, HART coordinated with the Hillsborough MPO on a preliminary feasibility study to determine the general “order of magnitude” of utilizing an additional location for operations and maintenance, considering short-range (relocating para-transit vehicles only) to long-range (relocating up to 100 vans and 100 buses) options. The existing facility at 21st Avenue would remain in operation and serve as the main Administration, Operations and Maintenance facility. The satellite facility would support parking and daily needs for drivers and minimal staff to operate the facility.

The study included working with HART to develop specific building and maintenance facility needs, real estate acreage requirements, and pre-concept level programming and budget requirements to be used by HART for future considerations. The general layout site plans included fueling, washing, fare collection and parking for vehicles, drivers and staff. The study lists the various minimal components of developing a new satellite facility, possibly combining services with other county facilities, or leasing a property that can serve as an interim solution. Developing these technical specifications for a future operations and maintenance facility will help HART to anticipate future needs and advance implementation as needed.

HART Operations and Maintenance Feasibility Study – Final Draft

i

Executive Summary Hillsborough Area Regional Transit (HART)’s existing Operations and Maintenance site located at 4305 E. 21st Avenue, Tampa Florida services approximately 200 transit buses, para-transit vehicles and staff vehicles is at maximum capacity. Diesel and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) vehicles are fueled at this facility. Vehicles (including buses) that require gasoline are taken off site to be refueled for the next day. All vehicles will be fueled by CNG, as the fleet is updated. With current overcrowding, proposed fleet changes that could occur such as expansion of para-transit service, adding additional CNG fueling tanks, or implementing recommendations from studies such as the Premium Transit Study or the Tampa Bay Express, will be difficult to accommodate efficiently. In coordination with the Hillsborough County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), HART requested that a preliminary feasibility study be conducted to determine the general “order of magnitude” of utilizing an additional location for operations and maintenance of HART vehicles. This study will consider options for near-term (5 years) relocating/ expanding para-transit vehicles only and long-term (10-15 years) relocating/expanding up to 100 vans and 100 buses. The existing facility at 21st Avenue would remain in operation as the main Administration, Operations and Maintenance facility. The satellite facility would support a short to long-range scenario if deemed necessary in the future with parking and daily needs for drivers and minimal staff to operate the facility. The study included working with HART to develop specific building and maintenance facility needs, real estate acreage requirements, and pre-concept level programming and budget requirements to be used by HART for future considerations. The general layout site plans included fueling, washing, fare collection, support facilities and parking for revenue vehicles, drivers, and minimal staff. The study lists the various minimal components of developing a new satellite facility, possibly combining services with other county facilities, or leasing a property that can serve as an interim solution. The site screening process did not include contacting property owners. It was a general screening of properties located within a reasonable distance of current service routes, and met the size requirements for a small, medium or large facility. The site screening analysis determined if any potential sites existed within 8 miles (a reasonable distance for deadhead miles) of the current HART 21st Avenue facility. Site location criteria assumed a property could qualify for a “Categorical Exclusion” (CatEx) to avoid excessive time in securing the property. This requires the site to have a number of critical features such as the following: a) located in an area predominately zoned for light industrial and heavy commercial activities; b) access to arterial streets with adequate capacity to handle increased traffic and minimal traffic control improvements (no specific calculations were conducted); c) limited identification of known environmental issues; d) minimized deadhead cost; e) suitable size and geometric shape to permit efficient facility design; and f) availability and location of utilities, including CNG, and stormwater conveyance. Three scenarios identified the space planning and programming requirements for a small (100 para-transit vans), medium (50 bus and 50 para-transit vans) and large (100 bus and

ii

100 para-transit vans) site. Representative sites were identified and concept site plans were provided for each. Depending upon HART’s needs, phased construction could be considered in the design and construction of the selected site.

Background HART’s service area covers approximately 1,000 square miles in Hillsborough County, Florida. The existing Operations and Maintenance facilities are located at 4305 E. 21st Avenue, Tampa, Florida. HART services its entire fleet of approximately 200 vehicles at this facility, which includes various sized transit buses, para-transit vehicles, and staff vehicles. The fleet consists of diesel, gasoline and Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) fueled vehicles. Only the diesel and CNG vehicles are fueled at this facility. Vehicles (including buses) that require gasoline are taken off site to a nearby gas station and refueled for the next day. The 21st Avenue facility is currently operating above maximum capacity, and every available space is being utilized. With current overcrowding, proposed fleet changes that could occur such as expansion of para-transit service, adding additional CNG fueling tanks, or implementing recommendations from studies such as the Premium Transit Study or the Tampa Bay Express, will be difficult to accommodate efficiently. In coordination with the Hillsborough MPO, HART requested that a preliminary feasibility study be conducted to determine the general “order of magnitude” of utilizing an additional facility for operations and maintenance. As part of the feasibility exercise, HART is reviewing the parameters for an operations and maintenance satellite facility for a near term (5 years) relocating/expanding 100 para-transit vehicles to long-term (10-15 years) relocating/expanding 100 para-transit and 100 buses concept. The new site would be comprised of a combination of standard transit vehicles and para-transit vehicles. Fueling for all new vehicles is planned to be CNG at the new site, thus CNG must be available at the proposed site. HART has expressed the possibility of considering phasing construction of the new facility to start with all para-transit vehicles (up to 100), with the additional expansion of 100 buses over time. The existing facility at 21st Avenue will remain in operation and serve as the main Administration, Operations and Maintenance facility. The satellite facility would support parking and daily needs for drivers and minimal staff to operate the facility.

Introduction This technical memorandum provides HART and the MPO with basic order of magnitude programming and budget information for a potential satellite operation and maintenance facility. This memorandum includes documentation of the evaluation of HART’s current and future needs, identifies facility and real estate acreage requirements, and provides pre-concept level programming and budget requirements for the project. The objective of this technical memorandum is to identify the number of vehicles near term (5 years), and long term (10-15 years), which the new transit satellite facility could be designed to support. Based on input from HART and the MPO, it was recommended to consider three possible scenarios for a satellite facility:

2

Small - 100 para-transit vehicles Medium - 50 para-transit vehicles and 50 buses Large – 100 para-transit vehicles and 100 buses.

These scenarios will include fueling, washing, fare collection and basic daily needs for drivers and minimal staff. This technical memorandum outlines the various components of developing a transit facility. It is general in nature, but provides enough detail to outline the required acreage necessary to support each scenario.

Space Planning and Programming Requirements The space plan and program assessment provides requirements and space needs for each type of function and operational characteristics of the services that will be located at the new facility. The programs are divided among the six major components of the operation:

• Administration • Transportation/operations, including fare box drop and money counting room • Maintenance, including fueling (diesel and CNG) and bus wash • Service, including transfer center maintenance • Yard/parking • Site circulation and detention/retention of water.

This data will be used to determine the approximate size necessary for each facility. A matrix that shows the site size requirements versus the number of vehicles is provided in Appendix A, Tables 1-3 and illustrates scenarios for small (100 para-transit vans), medium (50 buses and 50 para-transit vans) to large (100 para-transit vans and 100 buses) options. A conceptual site plan for each facility is provided in the body of this document.

Space Programming Requirements Summary As expressed by interviews with HART staff and considering input from the MPO, the most immediate need would be a facility that would service para-transit vehicles. It was suggested that this feasibility study consider accommodating approximately 100 para-transit vehicles to support the existing fleet of approximately 40 vehicles, and any future expansion of service. Developing a para-transit satellite facility would also increase available space for transit buses at the existing 21st Avenue facility. A space planning assessment was completed by interviewing HART staff. The assumptions used for this exercise are the new site would only accommodate the needs for the administration, dispatching, and maintenance of the para-transit operations. The current fleet of gasoline powered vehicles at the 21st Avenue site will eventually change over to all CNG. All other HART administrative requirements such as procurement, purchasing, and planning would remain at the HART 21st Avenue facility. Maintenance requirements relating to painting vehicles, and storage of other equipment would remain at HART’s 21st Avenue facility.

Small Scenario: 100 Para-transit Vehicles (7-10 Acres) The assumption for this facility is it would service 100 para-transit vehicles and require approximately 7-10 acres, (10 acres are preferred), including a stormwater treatment pond. Appendix A, Table 1 provides a detailed breakdown of the space planning requirements for this type of small facility. The assumptions are that the satellite facility would only accommodate the needs for the administration, dispatching, and maintenance of the vehicles assigned to this location. The current fleet of gasoline powered vehicles at the 21st Avenue site will eventually change over to all CNG. The following is a summary of the findings:

The Operations Building would require 9,447 sq. feet. This includes administration area, dispatch, and driver’s area, which includes lockers, restrooms/shower, exercise room and driver’s lounge area. The Maintenance Building would require 26,920 sq. feet and include office areas for maintenance management staff, support areas such as a break area, restroom/locker/shower area, repair bays, including lifts, tire shop, shop storage areas, and parts storeroom. The Fuel and Bus Wash building and lanes would require 6,710 sq. feet. Fare collection would be included in the adjacent building. Parking for 100 para-transit vehicles and 37 non-revenue vehicles would require 76,000 sq. feet. Parking for employees and visitors would require 78,336 sq. feet. Storage area, including CNG compressor and tank area, generator and used tire storage, would require an additional 20,600 sq. feet. Circulation/landscape/setback/stormwater would require an additional 218,014 sq. feet. Total sq. feet is 436,027 sq. feet or 10.0 acres.

Figure 1 is a conceptual site plan that could accommodate these program requirements.

Medium Scenario: 50 Buses – 50 Para-transit Vehicles (15-18 Acres) Based on discussions with HART and MPO staff, a second option was considered. This medium scenario could accommodate up to 100 vehicles, and would include moving over the current para-transit service of 40+ vehicles and provide space for up to 50 buses. This scenario would also alleviate overcrowding at the 21st Avenue site. The assumptions are that the new site would only accommodate the needs for the administration, dispatching and maintenance of the vehicles assigned to this location. The current fleet of gasoline powered vehicles at the 21st Avenue site will eventually change over to all CNG.

Appendix A, Table 2 provides a detailed breakdown of the space planning requirements for this type of medium-sized facility. The following is a summary of the findings:

This facility would service 50 buses and 50 para-transit vehicles and require approximately 14 acres, including a stormwater treatment pond. The Operations Building would require 12,288 sq. feet. This includes an administration area, dispatch, driver’s area, which includes lockers, restrooms/shower, an exercise room and driver’s lounge area. The Maintenance Building would require 45,063 sq. feet and include office area for Maintenance Management staff, support area, such as a break area, restroom/locker/shower area, repair bays, including lifts, tire shop, shop storage areas, and parts storeroom. The Fuel and Bus Wash building and lanes would require 10,740 sq. feet. Fare collection would be included in the adjacent building. Parking for 50 standard 40 ft. buses and 50 para-transit vehicles, and 16 non-revenue vehicles would require 91,200 sq. feet. Parking for employees and visitors would require 88,776 sq. feet. Storage area, including a CNG compressor tank, above ground fuel tanks, generator, and used tire storage, would require 24,700 sq. feet. Circulation/landscape/setback/stormwater would require an additional 272,766 sq. feet. Total sq. feet is 545,532 sq. feet or 12.5 acres.

Figure 2 is a conceptual site plan that would meet these program requirements.

Large Scenario: 100 Buses – 100 Para-transit Vehicles (24-27 Acres) Based on discussions with HART and MPO staff, a third option, or long-range need, would be for a large facility that would meet the needs for 200 vehicles, including 100 buses and 100 para-transit vans. This site could be phased in construction to meet the current 100 para-transit needs and provide for potential future expansion to meet HART’s long-range bus needs. This may be necessary if studies such as the Premium Transit Study or Tampa Bay Express recommend expansion of transit services. The assumptions are that the new site would only accommodate the needs for the administration, dispatching and maintenance of the vehicles assigned to this location. The current fleet of gasoline powered vehicles at the 21st Avenue site will eventually change over to all CNG. Appendix A, Table 3 provides a detailed breakdown of the space planning requirements for this facility. The following is a summary of the findings:

This facility would service 100 buses and 100 paratransit vehicles and require approximately 23 acres, including a stormwater treatment pond. The Operations Building would require 15,115 sq. feet. This includes an administration area, dispatch, driver’s area, which includes lockers, restrooms/shower, an exercise room and driver’s lounge area. The Maintenance Building would require 63,380 sq. feet and include an office area for Maintenance Management staff, support area, such as a break area, restroom/locker/shower area, repair bays, including lifts, a tire shop, shop storage areas, parts storeroom. The Fuel and Bus Wash Building and lanes would require 11,124 sq. feet. Fare collection would be included in the adjacent building. Parking for 100 standard 40 ft. buses, 100 para-transit vehicles, and 20 non-revenue vehicles, and would require 174,400 sq. feet. Parking for employees and visitors would require 163,296 sq. feet. Storage Area, including a CNG compressor tank, above ground fuel tanks, generator and used tire storage would require an additional 26,700 sq. feet. Circulation/landscape/setback/stormwater would require 454,015 sq. feet. Total sq. feet is 908,029 sq. feet or 20.8 acres.

Site Screening Process Various roadway improvements are either planned or underway throughout Hillsborough County that will improve supporting increased access for transit on arterials and the interstate system. As part of this planning exercise, the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) coordinated with HART and MPO staff to inquire about the feasibility of locating a satellite maintenance facility under the interstate as part of the Tampa Bay Express project or other projects supported by the FDOT. FDOT requested that HART and the MPO provide preliminary findings as to the feasibility of considering a small maintenance site, including an approximate acreage, when conducting the site screening task. Once a preliminary acreage of 7–10 acres for a small para-transit facility (100 vehicles) was determined), a summary memo was provided to the MPO, HART and the FDOT detailing the types of services that are integral to an operations and maintenance facility, and what a general small scenario site would require regarding safety and security. Appendix B includes the summary memo provided to the MPO, HART and FDOT. Considering that a satellite facility for HART would include CNG fueling (a safety concern), and the need to be fenced for security to accommodate 24-hour parking and fare collection, it was concluded that , a maintenance site was not the most appropriate transit facility to be placed under the interstate to improve transit access. This feasibility study did not focus on possible sites under the interstate as it moved forward. The site screening process did not include contacting property owners. It was a general screening of properties that are located within a reasonable distance of current service routes, and met the size requirements for a small, medium or large facility. The site screening analysis determined if any potential sites existed within 8 miles (a reasonable distance for deadhead miles) of the current HART 21st Avenue facility. Site location criteria assumed a property could qualify for a “Categorical Exclusion” (CatEx) to avoid excessive time in securing the property. This required the site to have a number of critical characteristics and features such as:

• Located in an area predominately zoned for light industrial and heavy commercial activities

• Located near an arterial street with adequate capacity to handle increased traffic due to the development of the facility. The level of service for the roadways will be identified at a later date. No calculations were conducted at this time.

• Limited identification of known environmental issues • Minimized deadhead cost • Access to arterial streets – minimal traffic control improvements • A suitable size and geometric shape to permit efficient facility design • Availability and location of utilities, including CNG • Stormwater conveyance

The site search included sites that are currently listed for sale, publicly owned property, or sites that have similar zoning compatible with a transit operations and maintenance facility. The screening also included coordination with TECO Gas to develop a listing of potential sites based on availability of CNG, or the possibility of CNG coming to that

10

area. Representatives from the Hillsborough County Public Schools were also contacted regarding potential use of school property near the existing HART 21st Avenue facility, and this coordination was documented for future coordination if HART resumes this study in the future.

Screening Methodology Potential sites within 8 miles of the existing HART facility were identified that were from 7 to 30 acres. The initial screening investigated vacant, industrially-zoned properties and locations that either have or could be serviced in the future by TECO for CNG. The search began with properties closest to the existing HART facility on 21st Avenue and expanded to approximately 8 miles outward. Initially, 19 potential sites that could support a satellite facility were identified using the following location criteria: availability of CNG service (coordination with TECO staff), surrounding land uses compatible with a maintenance facility, available acres, access to major arterials, distance from the existing HART 21st Avenue facility, and distance from a gasoline service station as back-up to any vehicles that may use the new facility, but would not be CNG-compatible.

Representative Sites After reviewing these possible 19 locations with HART and MPO staff, three sites were matched to the criteria for the small, medium and large sites as shown in Figure 6. This next step was conducted to create an order of magnitude for development costs. If HART is interested in pursuing additional feasibility analysis at any time in the future, a new property search will need to be conducted. Sites #7A and #7B best matched the representative small scenario (7-10 acres required) was a site that is 7.7 acres located approximately 2.4 miles from the existing HART facility. This site is assumed to support the dispatch of 100 para-transit vans. It is vacant land that is zoned commercial and has excellent access to major arterial roadways. The surrounding land uses are commercial and warehouse. Gasoline is available .65 miles from this location. CNG service is not currently available; however TECO Gas has indicated that it may be possible in the future. There are no known environmental issues. Site #8 best matched the representative medium site (approximately 17 acres required) was a site that is 18 acres, located approximately 4.5 miles from the existing HART facility. This site is assumed to support the dispatch of 50 buses and 50 para-transit vehicles. It is vacant land that is industrial. The access roads to the site may require some improvement considering the heavy bus traffic. It is within one mile of major arterial roadways. The surrounding land uses are commercial and warehouse. Gasoline is available 2.2 miles from this location. CNG service is available and can provide the 125 psi service required. There are no known environmental issues. Site #10 best matched the representative large site (approximately 21 acres required) was a site that is 27 acres located approximately 3.0 miles from the existing HART facility. It is vacant land that is zoned commercial and has excellent access to major arterial roadways. The surrounding land uses are commercial and industrial/warehouse. Gasoline is available 0.52 miles from this location. CNG service is available and can provide the 125 psi service required. The site may require additional fill to adjust the grades on the site. There are no known environmental issues.

Comparison of Deadhead Miles and Cost for Representative Sites Annual deadhead costs are a key factor in operating costs, therefore HART would prefer to minimize deadhead miles when considering a satellite facility location. Currently, all buses and para-transit vans begin and end their trips at the HART facility located at 4305 E. 21st Avenue. Data for all bus routes indicates that the 153 buses dispatched have a total of 3,300 daily deadhead miles. Using HART’s marginal cost of $3.79 per mile, this is estimated to be $12,507 daily for buses. HART’s 36 para-transit vehicles average 565 total daily deadhead miles. Using HART’s marginal cost of $2.55 per mile, this is estimated to be $1,440 daily.

Figure 6 - Small, Medium, and Large Sites

Representative Site Calculation for Deadhead miles – Three scenarios: The distance from the beginning and end points for revenue service for each bus route was calculated for each of the representative sites (small, medium and large). The estimated deadhead miles was calculated and divided by the 153 daily buses in order to get the new deadhead miles per bus. The bus cost per mile of $3.79 was applied to the new deadhead miles per bus to calculate the new estimated deadhead cost per bus. Since the deadhead miles for the para-transit vehicles is calculated based upon total revenue miles of service and vehicle miles of service, it is not possible to calculate the change in miles for each of the representative sites per vehicle. The para-transit vehicles begin and end for revenue service is variable based on first and last dispatched pickup. The distance from the representative sites and the existing HART facility was used to calculate the change in deadhead miles per vehicle. The para-transit cost per mile of $2.55 was applied to the new deadhead miles per vehicles to calculate the new deadhead cost per vehicle. Estimated Deadhead Cost for Small Site: The small site would be sufficient for 100 para-transit vehicles and the cost for the 100 vehicles was estimated at $4,638 per day. Estimated Deadhead Cost for Medium Site: The medium site was estimated for 50 buses ($4,770) and 50 ($2,447) para-transit vehicles or $7,217 per day for the 100 vehicles. Estimated Deadhead Cost for Large Site: The large site was estimated for 100 buses ($9,153) and 100 para-transit vehicles ($4,766) or $13,919 per day for the 200 vehicles.

Order of Magnitude Cost Estimate The purpose of this order of magnitude cost estimate is to provide cost information to plan, design, acquire land, construct and commission the proposed project. Order of magnitude costs provide an upper range of “expected” costs required to complete the planned conceptual scope for a facility. The site acquisition cost includes the fair market value of the representative property, costs associated with the real estate transaction (including buyers and owner’s appraisal fees), agency fees, broker fees, legal fees, surveying costs, and recording fees. This cost was developed based on average transactions in the area. It did not represent individual properties. The estimate included with this technical memorandum reflects order of magnitude cost for both Hard Cost and Soft Cost Program items.

Hard Cost items include: • Land Acquisition • Mobilization, general conditions, and demobilization • Site work and site development (excluding demolition, if required) • Facility utility services • Facility structures and roadways • Facility systems • Facility finishes • Vertical people movers • Testing and start-up

Soft Cost items include: • Project Planning and Development • Environmental Documentation and Clearance • Cost Estimating and Scheduling • Program Management and Controls • Permitting services and fees • Design services • Project insurance • Construction Management services • Outside agency force accounts; and • Transit Authority force accounts

Both the Hard Costs and Soft Costs include a contingency of 30 percent of their respective estimated amounts using 2017 dollars. Appendix C includes the detailed breakdown of the order of magnitude cost estimates for the small, medium and large representative sites. Small Scenario: A summary of the costs related to the representative Small Scenario site (100 para-transit vans) is as follows:

19

Land Acquisition (7 acres) $ 2,700,000 Building, Equipment, Site Development $32,200,000 Soft Costs (PE, Final Design, Const. Mgmt.) $ 8,000,000 Total $42,900,000

Note: costs include 30% contingency Medium Scenario: A summary of the costs related to the representative Medium Scenario site (50 buses and 50 para-transit vans) is as follows:

Land Acquisition (18 acres) $ 4,300,000 Building, Equipment, Site Development $43,000,000 Soft Costs (PE, Final Design, Const. Mgmt.) $10,800,000 Total $58,100,000

Note: costs include 30% contingency Large Scenario: A summary of the costs related to the representative Large Scenario site (100 buses and 100 para-transit vans) is as follows: Land Acquisition (27 acres) $ 5,600,000 Building, Equipment, Site Development $55,900,000 Soft Costs (PE, Final Design, Const. Mgmt.) $14,000,000 Total $75,530,000

Note: costs include 30% contingency

Findings This technical memorandum provides a preliminary feasibility study that determined the general “order of magnitude” of utilizing an additional facility for operations and maintenance for HART. Three scenarios identified the space planning and programming requirements for small (100 para-transit vehicles), medium (50 bus and 50 para-transit vehicles) and large (100 bus and 100 para-transit vehicles) sites. Representative sites were identified and concept site plans were provided for each in the body of this technical memorandum and in the Appendices. Depending upon HART’s needs, phased construction could be considered in the design and construction of the selected site. Order of Magnitude cost range from $42 million to $75 million. These findings can be used in the future by HART and the MPO if the need for a satellite facility is considered necessary for further study.

Memorandum

The FDOT District Seven is conducting multiple community and agency outreach events as part of the

Tampa Bay Express project, with the project’s limits including proposed improvements to both Interstate

275 (I-275) and Interstate 4 (I-4) in Hillsborough County. As part of the FDOT’s continued outreach

efforts to document the communities’ needs and desires for transportation services, the TBX team is

coordinating with the MPO and HART to identify potential opportunities to support transit services as

part of the TBX reconstruction. As part of the FDOT’s agency coordination on current projects, the

FDOT has inquired about this current Pre-Concept Study to identify if this type of transit facility could be

accommodated as part of the design features under the I-275/I-4 Interchange.

Project Background and Description: AECOM was issued a NTP in October 2016 to conduct a study

funded by the Hillsborough County MPO in support of the Hillsborough Area Regional Transit (HART)

Agency entitled: Pre-Concept Development for a New Satellite Operations and Maintenance Facility:

Feasibility Analysis and Site Location Study.

As part of the scoping process, HART provided the following parameters: HART’s service area covers

approximately 1,000 square miles in Hillsborough County, FL. The existing operations and maintenance

facilities are located at 4305 E. 21st Avenue and over time have been reconstructed to address an

expanding fleet. Changes in policy regarding fueling by CNG has also impacted use of the 21st Ave.

site as the total fleet eventually will be fueled by CNG and more CNG capacity will need to be added.

HART currently services its entire fleet of almost 200 vehicles, which includes various sized transit

buses and paratransit vehicles, at the 21st Ave. facility. The fleet consists of diesel, gasoline and CNG

fueled vehicles, and diesel and CNG fueling occurs at the current site. All gasoline-fueled vehicles are

taken for fueling off-site during the night. The existing facility has extensive flooding issues and HART

will be securing a design-build project in 2017 to reconstruct the heavy maintenance infrastructure at

the 21st Ave. site (grant funding) to improve the drainage issues and general construction features of

the building. However, the reconstruction will not increase capacity at the current facility, limiting

HART’s ability to effectively receive new CNG vehicles and retire vehicles over time, and most

importantly, to plan for growth.

Agency Coordination:

FDOT District Seven Request for Progress on Pre-Concept Development for a

New Satellite Operations and Maintenance Facility; Feasibility Analysis and Site

Location Study

From Kasey Cursey, AICP, AECOM Tampa, FL

Date December 11, 2016

B-1

With current overcrowding of the existing facility and the anticipated expansion of the fleet, HART is

considering a new satellite facility that would service 200 vehicles (a combination of new vehicles and

existing vehicles from the 21st Avenue site). The new site would be comprised of a combination of

standard transit vehicles and para-transit vans, and the new satellite facility will need to include CNG

fueling. HART has expressed an interest in phasing the new facility to start with all vans (up to 100),

with the additional expansion of 100 buses. The existing facility at 21st Avenue will remain in operation

and serve as the main Administration, Operations and Maintenance Facility.

This AECOM study will be completed by June 2017 and will provide HART with basic “order of

magnitude” programming and budget information for the proposed new satellite site. AECOM will study

and evaluate HART’s current and future needs, identify facility and real estate requirements, and

provide pre-concept-level programming and budget requirements for the project. The result will be a

report that provides recommendations for acreage and potential locations for three possible satellite

scenarios: minimum (100 vans at new satellite site); mid-term (combination of 50-100 vans and 50

buses); and long-term, maximum (100 vans and 100 buses).

The Hillsborough County MPO has requested that AECOM respond to the FDOT’s agency coordination

request, and provide a draft finding on the minimum acreage needed to support a new satellite

maintenance facility (low-end scenario). As of December 9, 2016, AECOM has met with HART

planning, operations and maintenance staff to document current and projected services. At a minimum,

the new satellite facility would need to meet these fundamental requirements:

a) Acreage: A site that can accommodate a minimum of 100 vans, on-site CNG fueling, parking for

both drivers and dispatch employees, limited administrative services and restroom facilities, rest

and eating facilities for up to 100 drivers and other employees, and other required services such as

fare collection, maintenance and wash services.

b) Security: A site that can be fully-secured with fencing and an entrance gate to protect staff,

vehicles, CNG fueling tanks, and fare collection.

c) Access: A site that has adequate roadway access for 100 vans and employees to enter and exit

throughout the day, and eventually have adequate access for up to 100 buses (a total of 200

vehicles) to enter and exit with minimal delay during operating hours.

AECOM has documented the initial facility requirements and is working on detailing the recommended

site acreage and location. For FDOT’s request, this memo has been prepared to provide an initial idea

of how much acreage would be needed to meet a minimum maintenance facility for 100 vehicles.

AECOM has developed this initial acreage recommendation and compared it to requirements from

national examples and recent operations and maintenance facility design work conducted by AECOM

for LYNX in Orlando, FL and LeeTran in Fort Myers, FL.

Initial Site Acreage Requirements for Phase 1 Scenario (100 vans with CNG fueling on-site):

Based on needs identified by HART’s planning, operations and maintenance staff, AECOM’s initial

finding is for HART to consider sites that are a minimum of 10 acres (suburban site) to accommodate

the features of a maintenance facility (100 vans with CNG fueling and fenced-security) as identified in

data collection meetings with HART in November 2016. This draft finding is preliminary to assist

FDOT in providing agency project information during the community outreach process, and still

must be approved by HART and the MPO before a final recommendation is published in June

2017.

Karen Smith, Sunshine Line

Summary

Each year the Community Transportation Coordinator (CTC) is required to submit a completed Rate Calculation Model worksheet to the Commission for the Transportation Disadvantaged. This rate model determines the trip rates for reimbursement to the CTC from the Trip/Equipment Grant from the Commission for the Transportation Disadvantaged (CTD). Rates are determined by the model using budget and estimated trip and mileage data from the current fiscal year. Staff will report on the CTD Disadvantaged Rate Calculation Model for the 2017/2018 grant year effective July 1, 2017: DOOR-TO-DOOR SERVICE RATE PER ONE-WAY TRIP AMBULATORY TRIP $25.89 (currently $24.33) WHEELCHAIR TRIP $44.38 (currently $41.71) GROUP TRIP* $12.71 (currently $12.13) *(5 or more passengers going to or from the same address at the same time such that all passengers can be picked up and dropped off within one hour) BUS PASSES/TICKETS: Cost of pass or ticket plus administration.* *The per - trip co‐payment is on a sliding scale, depending on the client’s household income as follows: Household Income Co‐Pay per Trip 125% (or less) of Federal Poverty Guidelines No Co‐Pay 126%‐300% of Federal Poverty Guidelines $2.00 More than 300% of Federal Poverty Guidelines $5.00

transportation providers with an impartial body to hear complaints and make recommendations on disputes concerning services rendered.

Section 6. Grievance Procedures

6.01 Grievance procedures will be those as specified by the Grievance Subcommittee as set forth below.

6.02 Complaints that emanate from continued tardiness, driver behavior, passenger discomfort, irregularities in the system of delivery, or decisions made to deny, reduce, or terminate services constitute grievances for users or funding agencies. Complaints about charges or billing constitute grievances by a funding agency or transportation provider. Other complaints can be heard at the discretion of the Grievance Subcommittee.


6.03 Complaints involving Medicaid Non-Emergency Transportation (NET) will be referred directly to the full TDCB in lieu of the Grievance Subcommittee. The TDCB will make a determination as to whether the complaint is a Medicaid NET issue or a CTC-related issue.

The CTC is selected and recommended by the MPO, while the Medicaid NET in Hillsborough County is selected directly by the CTD without MPO involvement.

6.05 If this effort is not successful, the grievant may present their grievance to the Grievance Subcommittee by securing a grievance form (Figure 4-1) from the program managers of the transportation providers care of the MPO. The client will also be advised about the CTD Ombudsman Program.

6.06 Upon receipt of the grievance form, the TDCB chairperson shall, within 15 working days, contact Grievance Subcommittee members and the CTC Program Manager to set a grievance hearing date and location.

Agenda Item

Vision Zero Hillsborough Update

Presenter

Gena Torres, MPO Staff

Summary

Vision Zero is an approach based on the belief that traffic death and injury is preventable – that these aren’t “accidents,” but the result of poor behaviors combined with unforgiving roadway designs. The resulting philosophy is to approach the problem from multiple angles, including targeted education and data-driven enforcement, as well as street designs that emphasize safety, predictability, and the potential for human error.

The MPO’s Policy Committee has taken the lead locally to develop a Vision Zero Action Plan centered around four Action Tracks:

Paint Saves Lives – about low-cost engineering strategies

One Message, Many Voices – about public education strategies

Consistent and Fair – about community-oriented law enforcement

The Future Will Not Be Like the Past – focusing on design standards

Three of four workshops to develop the plan have been held. The draft strategies for each Action Track will be presented at this meeting along with the responsible party for implementation and the expected timeframe. The last workshop is scheduled for August 22, 2017. The location is to be decided, but the public is welcome to attend.

Recommended Action

ONE TRAFFIC DEATH IS TOO MANY

S A F E S T R E E T S N O W

VISION ZERO. No more traffic-related deaths. No more pedestrians killed trying to cross the street. No more bicyclists and motorcyclists hit by unaware drivers. Safe streets for everyone.

IT’S AMBITIOUS. IT’S OUR MOTIVATION. IT’S OUR DRIVE.

WE HAVE A CRISIS IN HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY. No loss of life is acceptable. Between 2005 and 2016, there were 2,100 traffic-related deaths and 93,262 traffic-related injuries in Hillsborough County. Each one of these resulted in untold pain and suffering for the victims and their families. Moreover, every one of these was preventable.

Hillsborough County has the dubious distinction of being one of the highest traffic injury and death locations in the US. Pedestrians and bicyclists are particularly vulnerable. In 2015 there were 52 pedestrian traffic deaths and eight bicyclist traffic deaths in Hillsborough County. This is not surprising given the relationship between speed and pedestrian fatalities. Add in distracted driving, inadequate street lighting, and other contributing factors and we have a recipe for crashes.

HILLSBOROUGH COUNTY IS DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT.We are joining an international movement called Vision Zero. Many U.S. cities have joined and adopted Vision Zero, including New York, Chicago, Washington DC, Seattle, Austin, San Diego, and now Tampa and Hillsborough County.

At the core of the movement is the belief that death and injury on city streets is preventable – that these aren’t “accidents,” but the result of poor behaviors combined with unforgiving roadway designs. Vision Zero attacks the problem with a systematic approach that includes targeted education, data-driven analysis, enforcement, and street designs that emphasize safety, predictability, and the need for countermeasures for human error.

The Hillsborough Metropolitan Planning Organization is taking the lead, with help from local partners including Florida DOT, the Cities of Tampa, Temple Terrace, and Plant City, law enforcement, schools, hospitals, and media, among others. The MPO is engaging committed citizens to bring Vision Zero to reality, with four “Action Track” working groups:

ONE TRAFFIC DEATH IS TOO MANY

S A F E S T R E E T S N O W

“PAINT SAVES LIVES” Identifying low-cost engineering strategies

“ONE MESSAGE, MANY VOICES” Educating and informing the public

“CONSISTENT AND FAIR” Focusing on community-oriented law enforcement

“THE FUTURE WILL NOT BE LIKE THE PAST” Implementing context sensitive design

JOIN OUR CAUSE. We need your help to get the word out, locate problem areas, identify solutions, and advocate for investments in traffic safety. Join us to make Vision Zero a reality. Please check out our website, http://www.planhillsborough.org/vision-zero/ and follow us on Facebook at Vision Zero Hillsborough to learn more.

VISION ZERO.

ALL ROAD USERS.

ALL AGES.

ALL THE TIME.

Your opinion is critical in designing transit service as HART plans for the next 10 years.

PUBLIC HEARING AND OUTREACH MEETINGSProposed Service Changes & Transit Development Plan Update

HART is analyzing how public transportation in Hillsborough County is currently being delivered, and what that service might look like in the future. Doing both a review of the current network, and planning for service over the next ten years allows HART to essentially “reset” the transit network, providing a strong foundation for future expansion.

During the first phase of outreach on the Transit Development Plan, we asked for your input on your commuting habits and your preferences for service additions or changes.

In this next phase, we need your input on the proposed service changes, and the various options that are being considered.

Help plan the next 10 years of HART service.

Join us at any of the following open-house style community meetings:

Special Accommodations:Any person requiring special accommodations to attend or participate, pursuant to the Americans with Disabilities Act,

should contact HART within at least three (3) business days prior to the meeting at (813) 384-6553.

Any questions concerning these community meetings and the public hearing may be directed to HART Service Development, 1201 East 7th Ave, Tampa, FL 33605, or by email

The West Busch Blvd Corridor study limits extend from North Dale Mabry Highway to North Nebraska Avenue, a distance of approximately 3.3 miles. The study area includes portions of incorporated Hillsborough County and the City of Tampa. This notice has been sent to other public officials and agency representatives interested in the project. The meeting is scheduled for June 29, 2017, from 10:00 AM to Noon at the North Tampa Branch Library, 8916 North Boulevard, Tampa, Florida 33604. The purpose of the Corridor Study is to work with the community, stakeholders and a Project Advisory Group (PAG) to develop a vision and identify needs and issues in the corridor. At the kick-off meeting, we hope to identify PAG participants from the area to help develop a vision for the corridor that will guide proposed short and long-term recommendations. This may include issues related to capacity, traffic operations, safety, access and egress, mobility, freight movements, transit, bicycles, and pedestrian movements. Public participation is solicited without regard to race, color, national origin, age, sex, religion, disability or family status.
