1. Introduction & Executive Summary

1.1 About This Report

Mathtech, Inc. was engaged by the ODOT DMV to assist in creating a vision for future DMV operations and a plan for moving forward. This included:

Review and Evaluation of Current and Future Business Needs Assessment of Current Environment and Gap Analysis Peer Analysis and Identification of Best Practices Development of a Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

This document is the final Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization and it was developed in collaboration with senior leadership and user groups representing the following business functions:

Driver Licensing Vehicle Title & Registration Driver Record Management Driver & Vehicle Record Information Sharing

1.2 Executive Summary

1.2.1 Project Background DMV Modernization Goal The DMV operates with substantially antiquated computer systems and sought to begin the planning process to modernize its systems. Modernization processes are complex and include enterprise technology planning, business process modernization, and large scale system development. In short, a large modernization project is an opportunity to transform the organization.

Mathtech, Inc. – Planning Vendor The DMV engaged Mathtech, Inc. to conduct the planning engagement. Mathtech has a 50-year history serving clients with complex projects. Mathtech is active in the AAMVA (American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators) community and has experience planning and implementing motor vehicle system modernization projects working with jurisdictions including NJ, MN, WA, WI, MD, and others. Mathtech started work with the DMV in March 2013 and delivered this final report in August 2013.

The project included working with the DMV on-site and off-site to complete the following deliverables:

Business Needs Analysis Gap Analysis Comparing Current Systems to Business Needs Peer Analysis of DMV modernization project in other Jurisdictions Strategic Plan for System Modernization (this document)

1.2.2 Status of the Current System An agency’s primary computer systems must evolve to meet ever changing needs which include:

Legislative changes Improvements in operational effectiveness Expanding customer service requirements Increased security requirements Need to identify and prevent fraud Staff Changes Improvements to available technology over the past 60 years

The DMV’s systems are completely out-of-date and rely on 40+year old technology, often referred to as “Legacy Systems”. The effort required to enhance or expand the current system is substantial and the system’s lack of flexibility effectively keeps the agency “frozen in time” and unable to meet evolving expectations.

Using the Federal Highway Administration National Bridge Inspection Standards that the ODOT Highway Division uses for evaluating conditions of its bridges, the DMV IT systems would be considered STRUCTURALLY DEFICIENT based on the following appraisal rating: “2 – Basically intolerable requiring high priority of replacement.”

Problems to Be Solved The following is an abbreviated list of operational challenges which remain continually unaddressed and are basically unobtainable given the status of the current systems. These are significant deficiencies in the systems which prevent the DMV from improving operations, customer service, fraud detection, and general efficiency.

Vehicle title & registration transactions are not handled in real time – they are sent to the headquarters office for processing, rather than being handled in a field office

User interfaces of current systems are out-dated and very difficult to use Web site needs to offer more online services Mail-in transactions are very error prone Operations are very paper-centric Holes in financial reconciliation and cash handling systems, especially in Field

Offices Too many hand-written products (permits, receipts, etc.) Limited tracking of received documents Business rules not sufficiently enforced in system Reporting and analysis limited due to lack of data and reporting tools Staff need to access multiple systems to complete tasks Insufficient transaction auditing tools No complete customer interaction or correspondence log

1.2.3 Vision for the Future Mathtech worked with all levels of employees in the DMV to develop a vision for future operations and expectations of a modernized computer system. The following are highlights of the future vision for operations and technology.

Vision of Future Operations 360 Degree View of Customer Information – Future DMV systems will provide

staff with a consolidated view of all customer information allowing for better customer service as well as fraud detection.

Single Voice – Future DMV systems must sufficiently support the staff so that they can provide consistent guidance and answers to the customers. This includes features ranging from automated assessments of driving records to comprehensive customer interaction logs.

On-line DMV and Full Featured Web Site – Future systems must provide new tools and capabilities for our customers that will let them serve themselves, answer questions, and better understand DMV processes.

Consistent, Integrated Systems – Future DMV systems will be integrated and eliminate the need to re-enter data. The systems will use a consistent technology and user interface that will make them easier to use and easier to train new staff.

DMV “Wikipedia" – Staff will be supported by a comprehensive knowledge repository. It will track policy, procedures, forms, training information, and historical information.

Real Time DMV – Future DMV systems must operate in real time. Real time information is critical for timely and accurate transaction processing and customer support.

Simple DMV – Complex business processes, codes, fee structures, and rules create an unnecessary burden on customer and staff and they must be simplified.

Smart Systems That Enforce Business Rules – Future DMV systems must enforce business rules, check data entry, insure complete transactions and provide appropriate security.

Effective Reporting & Analysis Capabilities – Future DMV systems will provide staff with a suite of tools to access clean and well-defined data to create reports and perform analysis.

Flexible Systems – Future DMV systems must be built to adapt to changes in business rules and allow for new services to be added.

Better Financial Reporting (and More Payment Options) – Future DMV systems must fully track transactions and payments received at the detail level for reconciliation.

Eliminate Paper –Reduce or eliminate the reliance on paper documents for transactions as they negatively impact efficiency and security.

Engage Partners and Customers for Self Service – Future DMV systems must allow partners and customers to complete transactions and perform self service functions to meet their needs.

Future System Blueprint Mathtech and the DMV created a Future System Blueprint which identifies the architecture and capabilities of the modernized systems.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 8 of 61

The blueprint describes a modern, flexible system that can expand over time and adapt to the needs of the agency.

The blueprint combines pre-built commercial software packages with custom software to meet the needs of the agency. When available, commercial software packages are easier to implement than building custom software and allow for easier upgrades.

The blueprint describes an “enterprise approach” for building the DMV systems. This approach emphasizes the need to create common components that support and link all business areas. Three examples of common components are Common Customer Information Management – All business operations

and customer related activities are supported by a central customer management system.

Common Web Transactions Site – Customers access one common, consistent web site for all online transactions and access to their account information regardless of whether they are performing vehicle or driver transactions and regardless of access device.

Common Revenue Management Functions – All systems that generate and collect revenue will use a common financial component so the DMV can collect and track revenue.

The blueprint is used as a planning tool to decompose the modernization effort into smaller, manageable projects.

1.2.4 Strategic Planning Considerations The planning effort considered many factors in the analysis including

Business Needs and Priorities – Business needs were identified through Vision Sessions and other collaborative meetings with DMV operations and technology staff

Technology Refresh Needs – The DMV’s aging technology has a number of “ticking time bombs” which must be addressed before the system literally runs out of codes and configurations for new fees, suspension types, and other expansion needs.

Guiding Principles – The process considered a number of ideas that kept the planning on target including: Improve customer service Avoid an “all at once”, “ Big-bang” approach Provide quick and incremental business value Build toward long term vision/blueprint Address high priority needs sooner Plans must be realistic and achievable Leverage commercial software products where available Adopt modern programming environments Solution must be flexible to support future requirements and processes

Leverage/remain consistent with State standards and technology investments

1.2.5 Peer Analysis Findings Other states have found modernization of their DMV Systems very challenging and some have failed. Typical problems include attempting projects that are too large and complex for the agency to handle. Poor performance by implementation vendors was also a problem. Recommendations include having strong project management, thorough planning, attention to business process changes, and complete participation by Business Operations staff.

1.2.6 Options for Moving Forward The following four options were developed to guide the planning process.

No Action – A “wait and see” approach will not address the DMV’s modernization needs and better options are available.

All Custom Software Development – This approach is time consuming and high risk. It best describes the approach used so far.

Whole Solution COTS Vendor – There are vendors in the market who propose to offer a “Commercial Off-The-Shelf” package. These offerings are typically the remarketing of custom built solutions and they have had a very mixed success record. Moving forward additional vendors are entering the market and their solutions may need to be evaluated.

COTS + Custom Software Hybrid Approach – This approach combines smaller software packages with custom software to meet the DMV’s specific needs incrementally over time. This approach offers the most flexibility to the DMV.

Mathtech and the DMV believe that the COTS + Custom Software approach is the desired solution for moving forward. This approach allows the DMV to begin making progress and leaves open the option to later consider a Whole Solution product.

1.2.7 Program of Manageable Projects The DMV needs to move forward at a pace that is manageable by the agency. Others have failed because they have contractually over-committed the agency and vendors to an aggressive schedule.

Mathtech and the DMV propose “A Program of Manageable Projects” to accomplish the full modernization. The projects are grouped into three categories.

Business Process Improvement – All business areas must review existing processes and identify business rules, legislative changes, system requirements, and opportunities for improvement.

Core Systems – The core systems will be replaced including DRIVE, back-office systems, and other supporting systems. Replacement would occur in the following order: Vehicle Title & Registration Dealers Licensing & External Interfaces Driver Licensing & Driver Records

Record Requests Priority Projects – The following projects supplement the core system and

address critical operational needs. Point of Sale System Data Warehouse/Next Generation Database Document Imaging & Workflow MyDMV Online Service (Customer Portal)

1.2.8 Approach Implementing the Program of Manageable Projects is a substantial undertaking that is complex in nature and requires significant resources and funding. The plan developed leverages Mathtech’s and the DMV’s experience with other projects, learns from the challenges of other jurisdictions, and addresses the priorities of the DMV.

Schedule The work effort is scheduled over a 9 year period. Projects have been planned over time so as to consistently deliver business functionality while not creating an overwhelming work effort for the DMV or any contractors.

Staffing This project will require a significant, sustained effort by both the DMV business operations and IT staff. Total FTE headcount for the project ranges from 40 to 70 and peaks in year 5. A large portion of the work is expected to be performed by contracted vendor staff but participation by internal staff is critical and the estimated headcount ranges from 20 to 30 FTEs.

Costs The cost for the project includes vendor staff, internal staff, as well as hardware & software. The total cost for the project including all of these components is approximately $90M over a 9 to 10 year period. This cost is consistent with the experiences of other states.

The existing DMV operations have considerable costs associated with them in part due to inefficiencies imposed by the current systems. One example of cost savings showed over $4M annually which could be saved if more modern systems were used. Other

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 11 of 61

costs are seen continually because even modest changes to the existing systems are very time consuming.

2. Status of Current ODOT DMV Systems – Structurally Deficient An agency’s primary computer system must evolve to meet ever changing needs which include:

Legislative changes, Improvements in operational effectiveness, Expanding customer service requirements, Increased security requirements, and the Need to identify and prevent fraud.

Systems which cannot continually evolve to meet new requirements keep an agency operationally and technically “frozen in time.”

The DMV’s systems are substantially outdated and limit the DMV’s ability to evolve and meet ever changing needs. Taking a page from the Federal Highway Administration Nation Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS), the DMV systems would be considered:

Structurally Deficient (SD) – A highway bridge is classified as structurally deficient if the deck, superstructure, substructure, or culvert is rated in "poor" condition (0 to 4 on the NBI rating scale). A bridge can also be classified as structurally deficient if its load carrying capacity is significantly below current design standards or if a waterway below frequently overtops the bridge during floods.

This status is determined for the DMV systems because the Appraisal Rating would be a “2 – Basically intolerable requiring high priority of replacement.” This rating is selected because the current systems cannot be salvaged or sufficiently repaired to allow the agency to properly perform its mission in an efficient manner or to evolve to meet modern expectations. Substantial staff effort is required to work around the deficiencies of the system.

Appraisal Rating

9 Superior to present desirable criteria

8 Equal to present desirable criteria

7 Better than present minimum criteria

in place as is is” because it does not support modern business practices, is difficult to maintain, and uses obsolete technologies.

3 Basically intolerable requiring high priority of corrective action

“Corrective action” implies that there are existing components of the system which can be upgraded or corrected. The age of the system and its overall design do not indicate that this is an option.

2 Basically intolerable requiring high priority of replacement

The systems are intolerable and must be replaced.

3. Strategic Planning Considerations Developing the strategic modernization plan has many inputs as described in this section. The planning process must balance all inputs.

Business Needs, Future System Blueprint, and Priorities – Over the course of the planning project, Mathtech has worked with DMV staff and leadership to develop a vision for future operations and a Blueprint for the future systems. These functional needs and goals are the basis for the planning process because they represent “what” needs to be built.

Technology Needs –The future vision includes expectations for flexible, modern technology. The planning process must address this need and also address current technology conditions and system weaknesses.

Guiding Principles – There are many ways to implement systems and enhance business processes. Guiding principles were developed to guide and help describe the planning approach and resulting strategy.

Peer Analysis and Best Practices – Lessons learned and best practices from other States, the DMV, and Mathtech are important in guiding the planning process and avoiding the mistakes of other projects.

3.1 Business Needs, Future System Blueprint, and Priorities

The scope of the DMV system modernization effort touches all aspects of the agency’s operations including:

Driver Licensing Driver Record Management Vehicle Title & Registration Driver & Vehicle Record Information Sharing

DMV must…

Improve Efficiency Provide New Services Improve Quality Provide 21st Century Tools in order to recruit and retain employees

3.1.1 Future System Blueprint Mathtech worked with the DMV to identify future business needs which were organized into a Future System “Blueprint” describing the expected functions of a new DMV system. The Future System Blueprint consists of conceptual subsystems and serves as a planning tool for the project. It allows the project to define the overall scope of the modernization effort. The blueprint describes a modern, modular approach to building the system. It also describes how the system can be built incrementally and how all functions, over time can be integrated.

The Blueprint is comprised of three layers. Each layer is a logical grouping of subsystems and functions. The three Blueprint layers are:

Business Layer – This layer contains subsystems and functionality which are specific and fairly unique to each business area.

Base Layer – This layer contains subsystems and functionality which are commonly required by most business areas. This includes customer management and offering services on the internet. Subsystems in this layer might be purchased as “off-the-shelf” products or custom developed for the DMV.

Foundation – This layer contains technologies and tools that could be used to consistently build common systems and functions. The creation of a common toolset for system modernization allows IT staff to maximize effort and create a system that is easier to maintain and naturally more integrated.

The following diagram is the initial version of the Blueprint for the DMV. It contains the three layers as described above. Each layer contains a number of subsystems.

From the strategic planning perspective, the project team must determine how to build these components and in what order. Some of these components can be implemented with “off the shelf” commercial products and some must be custom developed.

The Future System Blueprint describes a modern, modular system

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 15 of 61

3.1.2 High Priority System Enhancements In addition to replacing the core systems, the planning process identified ten high priority system enhancements to existing system capabilities. If planned properly, these priority enhancements can be part of the larger modernization effort.

Priority Project Description

1. Data Warehouse/ Next Generation Database

Create a data warehouse for reporting and analysis that consolidates important DMV information. Begin to analyze and cleanse the current DMV data in preparation for system modernization.

2. Point of Sale System

Implement a point of sale system at all locations to support electronic payments such as credit and debit cards. The system would allow automate printing of receipts, tracking of funds collected, and end of day reconciliation.

3. Customer Management

Implement a customer information management system that consolidates all customer information and provides a “360 degree view” of all customer information to staff. The system would support tracking of all interactions and correspondence.

4. Document Imaging Phase II & Workflow

Implement document imaging and retrieval at all locations along with automated workflow to route documents to staff for processing. This will significant decrease the amount of physical paper being processed and improve the security and tracking of documents.

5. Correspondence Management

Implement a system to consistently design and produce correspondence and notices. The system would support both individual and bulk documents and support automatic storage of documents in the document imaging system prior to printing or electronic distribution.

All documents would then be available for access via the Customer Management system.

6. MyDMV (Customer Portal)

Implement a framework of tools that allows the DMV to continually offer more services via the internet. This includes allowing customers to check driver license and vehicle information, start and submit transactions, and make payments.

7. DMV Knowledge Base (DMV “Wikipedia”)

Implement a knowledge management system that organizes and consolidates policy, procedures, training information, and other institutional knowledge into one accessible, searchable system for all staff.

8. Record Requests

Implement an online system for customer to submit and pay for record request and have most requests automatically prepared and delivered to the customer electronically rather than manually via paper.

9. Interfaces to External Systems

Upgrade external interfaces between the DMV and third parties to collect more information in an automated, real-time manner. New interfaces would include advanced error correction and rejection of incomplete records back to the source organization for correction.

10. DMV Website Simplify and reorganize the DMV website to provide better access to the most commonly needed information. The website could provide tutorials

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 16 of 61

and other information needed by new drivers, those interested in commercial driving privileges, and others.

3.2 Technology Needs

This section describes weaknesses in the current DMV Systems which must be addressed. While none of these issues are fully critical the need to address them impacts the overall planning process.

Billing System There are a limited number of record inquiry types remaining in the billing system. The DMV will soon will be unable to accommodate any legislative or federal mandates which require new types.

Unsupported MS Access Systems There are a variety of systems using obsolete technology to which no changes can be made, knowledgeable staff is gone, and/or the system is undocumented and unsupportable.

Configuration of Plate Numbers The current Information Technology team continues to modify and rework the existing system to accommodate additional sequences of License Plates to meet growing demands.

Field Sizes The systems have many data limitations that continually prevent normal business operations or the proper accommodation of new procedures. This includes:

Suspension/Revocation/Cancellation Type Codes Field size for fees Expansion of the types of fees collected (sales tax, donations)

Space for New Fields on Screens The current screens are overcrowded with data fields and provide no opportunity to adapt with new operational needs.

Mainframe Memory and Transaction Configuration The current mainframe software uses antiquated programming techniques which inhibit it from taking advantage of newer mainframe technology.

Age of Microfilm Readers Existing support systems are aging with limited ability for replacement or supplementation.

3.3 Guiding Principles

Over the course of the planning process, these principles have been developed to guide the DMV effort.

3.3.1 Improve Customer Service and Staff Efficiency Without a doubt, the modernization effort must improve customer service and allow the DMV to offer new services. New services which are web based will allow for increases in staff efficiency and reduce errors when communicating with the public.

Page 22: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 17 of 61

3.3.2 Planning No “Big-Bang” or Whole Program Contract – The project will avoid bundling all tasks into one large project and awarding the contract to one vendor for a long term implementation period. This type of approach requires the creation of a very detailed and large RFP. It also requires the vendor to create a clear multiyear proposal. As the work effort becomes larger and longer in duration unknown events make the original commitments difficult or impossible to uphold resulting in contract challenges and potential project failures. Additionally, fixed price contracts incent the vendor to move quickly, often at a pace that is unreasonable for the state.

Provide Quick and Incremental Business Value – This principle is critical to addressing DMV business needs and to maintain long term support for the project.

Build Toward Long Term Vision/Blueprint – Disparate, siloed systems are the result of insufficient long-term planning. The blueprint will be used to ensure that all systems are built in an integrated manner that helps to achieve the long term system goal.

Address High Priority Needs Sooner – Some business needs have urgent requirements and will have quick benefit to the business. These projects should be prioritized and implement consistent with the Blueprint.

Plans Must Be Realistic and Achievable – Many states have created elaborate plans on paper and have suffered because, after contracting a vendor, they have found the required effort overwhelming.

Link to Legislative Schedule – Project planning and funding must be coordinate with the legislative schedule and the two year budget cycle. This requires executing and evaluating existing projects while preparing funding requests for the next cycle.

3.3.3 Architecture & Solution When planning for a modern system, the following will be included in the implementation approach.

Leverage COTS Products Where Available – It is easier to implement a pre-built system component rather than building a custom component from scratch. Where possible, pre-built components will be used.

Adopt Modern Programming Environments –The current technical environment at the DMV is consistent with the existing technologies. The modernization effort must plan to modernize the systems and the programming environments.

Solution Must Be Flexible To Support Future Requirements and Processes – Legislative requirements and DMV business needs are constantly changing. New systems must be developed to be flexible and allow for changes in processes and business rules without the need for extensive custom programming or long implementation periods.

Leverage/Remain Consistent With State Standards And Technology Investments – The State has considerable investments in many technologies. These investments represent available technology resources and skill sets. As possible, the modernization effort will leverage these resources to move forward.

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) – SOA is a modern programming technique and architecture approach for building modern computer systems. Conceptually, it is very

Page 23: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 18 of 61

similar to the components of the blueprint presented above in that it organizes the system software into functions or services.

Data Access Services (DAS) – DAS is another programming technique and architecture approach which is used to separate data from system software. This separation allows for the long term maintenance and upgrade of software without always impacting the data. It also allows new system software to access existing data.

3.3.4 Design As the project moves forward to implement each subsystem, the design and approach will continue to focus on the following.

Simplify User Experience – Current DMV systems use 40-50 year old/outdated “user interface” technologies that are not comparable to today’s window and web based systems. This results in increased training, adoption, and productivity issues for staff. Likewise, as more functions are made available directly to the customer, the system must be as easy to use as possible.

Push Data Entry To Customers And Business Partners As Much As Possible – Most DMV business processes are based on paper forms requiring manual processing by DMV staff. New processes and web-based system functions will push the data entry task to the customer and allow the DMV staff to focus on higher value activities.

Move Toward Web-Based Transactions – User groups determined that almost every business transaction can be partially or fully completed using web based solutions.

3.4 Peer Analysis & Best Practices

Modernization projects are complex efforts that are significantly more challenging than a typical IT project. The project team assembled best practices and advice from other states, internally, and from Mathtech.

3.4.1 Strong Project Management is Critical Modernization projects require coordination across many participants and project management is critical to understanding the interdependencies of many efforts as well as the resources requirements necessary. As the project executes there will be many challenges requiring coordination and planning.

Independent Third Party Assistance – Mathtech and other States suggested that getting assistance from a third party project management/oversight vendor proved helpful in managing the project. This is consistent with the DMV’s requirement to have some level of third party oversight involved in the project.

3.4.2 Business Process Improvement is a Requirement Current DMV business processes are tied to the current computer systems. Business processes must also be modernized along with the systems and they must be assessed and improved prior to implementing new systems.

Other States have recommended starting this process early and using knowledgeable facilitators to assist with the work.

There are many examples of business process improvements that will impact external stakeholders and partners or that may require legislative changes to implement. These “details” must be resolved prior to starting work on new systems.

Page 24: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 19 of 61

3.4.3 Address Data Early Legacy systems often contain data which is substantially disorganized and in need of “cleaning” prior to converting and loading it into a new system.

Mathtech and other States recommend starting a data assessment and clean-up project as early as possible and this is consistent with the DMV’s internal planning.

3.4.4 Overly Aggressive Schedules Mathtech and other States have advised that it is easy to develop aggressive modernization schedules and vendors will often support and encourage them. Plans must be reasonable in effort and each jurisdiction is different in terms of business and technical staffing capacity.

3.4.5 Be Cautious of Vendor Promises and Performance The DMV modernization market is fraught with fully and partially unsuccessful modernization projects. Challenges are often due to poor vendor performance. Large complex projects are not only challenging for the State but will likely also be challenging for the vendor.

4. Options for System Modernization The following section describes four fundamental options for modernization that must be considered.

All Custom Development Engage “Whole Solution” COTS Vendor Custom + COTS Approach Do Nothing

The following diagram shows these four options.

Page 25: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 20 of 61

4.1 All Custom Development

Custom development best describes the software approach currently used at the DMV and many others around the country. All functionality is custom coded. Custom development takes a long time to construct and test new systems. Custom software must be designed “from scratch” and it never gets an upgrade of functionality as would a commercial software product. Many standard functions such as inventory or financial management, reporting, and other functions can be better and more easily implemented by using commercial off the Shelf (COTS) products. These products have been built, refined, and used by many customers.

“All Custom Development” is generally not considered an effective approach for large, complex systems.

4.2 Engage “Whole Solution” COTS Vendor

While it would appear to be generally desirable to buy a pre-built DMV software system, they are not clearly available in the market. Some vendors have custom built unique solutions for a specific jurisdiction and will transfer that solution to a new state and re-customize the system into a new custom solution. Such efforts require the system to be re-customized as much as 50% to meet the needs of the new State. This approach suffers from two perspectives. First, the original system built for the prior State may in fact work, but was likely not developed to the highest software standards and may not have been designed to be flexible enough to accommodate the needs of other States. Second, the process of “ripping apart” and reworking up to 50% of an existing system contains many risks that impact the quality of the project and the resulting system.

A new set of products have begun to emerge and have had general success with the first installations. These products can be reviewed for potential viability and suitability as an enterprise solution for the DMV.

In general, these “complete package” solutions have been marginally successful and are typically large, complex, overwhelming projects for the vendor and the state.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 21 of 61

4.3 Custom + COTS Approach

This approach combines COTS components with custom development. COTS packages are used for a variety of technical functionality including document imaging, financial management, business rules management, and reporting. The use of commercial software components will reduce the implementation and testing time and naturally result in a more error-free product. Custom software would be developed for many functions where a commercial solution is not available. In these cases, powerful software tools are used to assist in the development.

The blueprint developed by the team describes a modular environment that can be built using this hybrid approach. This approach allows the DMV to move at an appropriate pace over time and achieve quick wins.

4.4 Do Nothing

A “wait and see” approach is always an option. However, the DMV has a variety of technologies which must be replaced. Any movement forward to replace technologies or implement new functions should be done in the context of a larger improvement plan and system blueprint as has been developed by the project.

4.5 Strategy Variations and Combinations

Within the Custom + COTS approach there are multiple strategies for deciding where to start and in what order to implement functionality. This strategy leverages the future DMV system blueprint to identify potential projects and software components for moving forward

Perimeter Approach – This approach focuses on the DMV’s interactions with external groups including other government agencies, third party partners, customers, and businesses. The goal is to begin automating and enhancing our interactions with the groups. For example, by providing additional on-line services to customer the DMV can reduce the amount of paper and manual transactions performed. Also, by automating interfaces with third parties manual work and work associated with returning bad data can be reduced.

Hub & Spoke Approach – This approach focuses on building a new customer information system and database that can serve as the hub for all new functionality. This central customer management function would support all business areas.

High Priority Approach – This approach focuses on specific, critical needs of the DMV and develops an approach for meeting those needs by building components that are part of the larger modernization effort.

The DMV leadership and Mathtech have reviewed these options and developed a hybrid approach that combines aspects from each.

4.6 Flexibility Moving Forward

Moving forward with a Custom + COTS approach does not eliminate the possibility of engaging a whole solution COTS vendor at a later date in time. Engaging a whole solution vendor would take time to complete business process analysis along with the development of an RFP and an implementation support team. During that time, the DMV could accomplish significant projects that address important modernization needs and help prepare for a new system.

The following diagram shows how a Whole Solution COTS product could become one of the major COTS components of a future solution.

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 23 of 61

5. Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Challenges This section presents a discussion of issues and considerations which guided the planning process and will need to remain a focus throughout the project.

5.1 Strengths

5.1.1 Project & Portfolio Management Processes The DMV has mature project management processes compared to many other agencies. Processes are documented and implemented for the entire project management life cycle which helps to address consistency in delivery and it supports the creation of necessary documentation.

The current set of DMV projects is similar to the small to medium projects that this modernization plan proposes. Moving forward, a continued effort on project management will be necessary.

As the modernization effort is planned, the DMV must continue to monitor whether its processes are mature enough to manage a large scale program. Options include engaging a third party vendor to assist with project management as well as hiring contract resources to support the effort.

5.1.2 Process Improvement Maturity The DMV has used business process mapping in support of various process improvement efforts. This modernization effort will require that all areas are reviewed and that business processes are assessed to understand how they will be modernized. This scale of process mapping and improvement will likely require assistance from external resources.

5.2 Weaknesses

5.2.1 SDLC and PM Processes The DMV has developed and implemented a variety of processes for project management and the system development life cycle. While these processes support a variety of small to medium projects, they may need to be adapted to support a large scale modernization program.

5.2.2 Experience with Modern Technology Architecture & Planning The current DVM technology staff has spent considerable time supporting the current mainframe environment and the related systems. As such, no significant time has been spend reviewing new technologies, planning for new technologies, or gaining experience by developing more modern systems. This focus leaves the team insufficiently prepared to evaluate options and plan the overall modernization effort. Moving forward, a component of the modernization effort will need to include the addition of some staff with modern technical skills and the training of existing staff.

5.2.3 Existing Technology Foundation Base Almost every component of the DMV’s technology base is outdated. Notable exceptions include the automated testing system and a document imaging system which is currently being implemented. Other than these, the current environment leaves little upon which

Page 29: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 24 of 61

to build. This increases the scope of the modernization project which will require new servers, new development tools, new databases, new interfaces, new web based systems, and new application software.

5.2.4 Reliance on Paper The DMV’s operations are substantially dependent upon paper. Paper is used to collect data, to transfer transactions from the front office to the back office, for auditing, and for storage. This approach is very time consuming and means that any modernization effort must begin with basic, paper-based transactions and improve both business processes and technology. Paper is also generally a security risk as the information on paper documents can easily be accessed by staff and such access is not tracked.

5.2.5 Procurement Processes The State of Oregon’s procurement processes are cumbersome and will need to be managed carefully to support DMV’s large modernization effort. The modernization program will need to procure a wide range of consulting services, staff support, software, hardware, and other services. These cannot be combined into one Request for Proposal procurement. The procurement process will be a critical task in every project so effort should be invested to ensure that it is as consistent and efficient as possible.

5.2.6 Process Improvement Staffing Process mapping and improvement efforts will require a substantial effort to cover all business areas. The existing process improvement staff will need to be supplemented in order to complete all of the work in a reasonable time period.

5.2.7 Aging Workforce The current workforce has knowledge of the existing systems and operations that is not sufficiently documented. This workforce is aging and institutional knowledge will be lost as these staff members retire. This can create gaps in knowledge of operations, data, and business rules that will be necessary for the modernization effort.

5.3 Opportunities

5.3.1 Vehicle Transactions Vehicle transactions are collected and paid for in field offices but they are not really evaluated or otherwise processed until they are sent to the headquarters for processing. This results in a significant number of errors and misprocessed transactions. In some cases, vehicle owners have been given a license plate and stickers when their transaction was not complete. The goal is that transactions started in the field will be completed in the field. These field transactions are completed even if the actual title document is produced and issued from a secure central facility.

This process represents a significant opportunity for the DMV to improve the accuracy, efficiency, and customer service of these transactions. A focus of the modernization effort must focus on the improvement of the systems and business processes for vehicles so that all transactions are started and fully processed in the field office to ensure that the transaction is completed with the customer and that an accurate payment is collected.

Page 30: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 25 of 61

5.3.2 Web Transactions The DMV does not offer a sufficient number of on-line transactions to customers and businesses. The staff identified a wide range of transactions that could be offered. These transactions will reduce the amount of paper transactions needing to be processed and are inherently easier to automate.

5.3.3 Document Imaging An enterprise wide document imaging, storage, and retrieval system will greatly automate the core of many transactions and provide necessary flexibility to all operations.

Current document imaging capabilities are insufficient to support the DMV’s operations. Employees are not able to scan and store documents from the field offices or the headquarters. This results in all transactions being processed manually using paper forms and manual routing. Additionally, the storage of documents consumes considerable time and space. Documents which are needed remotely in a field office are no longer accessible once they have been stored at the headquarters without manual retrieval and delivery. Some documents are stored on microfiche, a technology that is also obsolete.

5.3.4 Point of Sale Capabilities An automated Point of Sale system would provide needed support to field office operations and allow for better tracking and reconciliation of funds collected each day. The system would also provide the capabilities to print receipts and more easily accept credit and debit card payments and other payment options.

5.3.5 Data Management – Quality/Organization/ Accessibility System modernization and an improved database would provide many necessary data management capabilities to the DMV that includes expanded data collection for transactions as well as expanded reporting and analysis.

Any modernization effort must look at how data is used across the organization and ensure that all needs are built into a new “Next Generation” database. The DMV must improve the data management effort that accompanies a new database to ensure that data needs are properly understood, designed and implemented consistently.

5.3.6 Data Exchange The DMV exchanges data with a variety of partners in both the public and private sector. All data exchanges need to be automated and implemented so that only valid data is accepted from the source. Rather than accepting and manually processing invalid data it should be rejected back to the source for correction.

5.3.7 Operational Efficiencies Many of the DMV’s operations are “frozen in time” and not able to evolve or become more efficient because the systems are not capable of supporting modern processes. This has resulted in a variety of inefficiencies that cost the DMV millions of dollars each year.

New systems would allow new business processes to be implemented and would automate many currently manual tasks.

Page 31: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 26 of 61

5.3.8 System Flexibility and Technical Efficiencies The current systems are not flexible and use substantially out-of-date technologies. Modernization would introduce new systems and technologies that should improve the DMV’s ability to respond to business needs and legislative changes more quickly and efficiently.

5.3.9 Improved Customer Service Improved customer service is a significant opportunity for the DMV. Many services are not available on-line and therefore require an on-site visit. Additionally many services are performed with hand written products and manually calculated fee amounts – which is time consuming and error prone. This is inconvenient for the customer if the transaction is performed incorrectly and needs to be reconciled at a later date. Also, payment options are very limited.

5.4 Challenges/Risks

5.4.1 Limited Subject Matter Resources to Support Existing and New Projects

Every jurisdiction planning for a large modernization project must address the staffing needs of the project. Business operation staff must participate in these projects as they are the subject matter experts and end-users of the new systems. The DMV will need to balance the efforts of existing and new projects to ensure that all projects receive sufficient participation. Partial solutions may include limiting unnecessary projects in favor of the modernization effort. Critical business operations staff may be able to be backfilled with new staff to allow them to participate on the modernization project.

5.4.2 Balancing Maintenance with New System Development As with the limited supply of subject matter staff, technical staff will also be stretched to support existing projects and system maintenance as well as participate on the system modernization effort. Again, partial solutions may include limiting unnecessary projects in favor of the modernization effort. Critical technical staff may be able to be backfilled with new staff to allow them to participate on the modernization project.

5.4.3 Documentation of Business Rules The DMV has substantial business documentation that should assist in planning and executing the modernization effort. However, no jurisdiction ever has all of its processes, rules, and calculations fully documented and this effort will be a challenge for staff as the new system will require such information to be documented and explained for implementation. The collection and updating of business rules can be part of an early business process improvement effort.

5.4.4 Managing Vendor Performance and Deliverable Quality Other States and Mathtech have advised that vendor performance on large modernization projects can be a concern. A wide variety of skills are needed to oversee and evaluate the quality of vendor work during a complex system project. Some States have used Oversight or IV&V (Independent Verification and Validation) vendors to support the vendor oversight process.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 27 of 61

5.4.5 Architectural Design & Coordination The current DMV technical staff is very focused on supporting the existing technologies and systems. As such, their experience does not include modern system development practices. This will leave the DMV at a disadvantage when moving forward in the planning process as all new projects should implement modern technologies and be consistent with the Future System Blueprint. Training, new hires, staff supplementation, and external support will be necessary to being the necessary skills to the project.

5.4.6 Aging Workforce The DMV’s aging workforce means that institutional knowledge could leave the agency in the next few years. This includes technical system information as well as business process information. These gaps in knowledge could impact the modernization effort which may struggle to understand how certain systems work and why certain process steps exist. Succession planning, knowledge capture, and knowledge transfer plans are the most typical solutions.

5.4.7 Existing System Age & Lack of Flexibility, Years of Patchwork New systems must co-exist and interact with existing systems. Older systems that lack flexibility may be difficult to work with during transition years. Experienced staff with knowledge of the existing systems will be critical for all migration, data conversion, and interfacing activities.

5.4.8 Redesign of Business Processes Business processes must be modernized along with the systems and they must be assessed and improved prior to implementing new systems. This effort will touch all business areas and require coordination and a structured approach. The vision session process performed by Mathtech should be a starting point for this effort as it identified many opportunities for improvement. Governance and active decision making will be critical if the process is to be efficient and effective.

6. Approach This section describes the overall approach for the DMV Modernization Plan and its components.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 28 of 61

6.1 Program of Manageable Projects

6.1.1 Break the Project Down into Manageable Pieces Modernization is a complex undertaking involving all aspects of the organization. Modernization is not accomplished with one new piece of software, one contract, one vendor, or a small project team. Modernization will require many different activities and many decisions over multiple years.

The Future System Blueprint outlined in this document defines the functionality of the complete systems and further organizes functions into common layers and subsystems. This allows the DMV to build the new system incrementally in manageable pieces. This approach is different from many other States that have attempted one very large project.

6.1.2 Responsive & Flexible An incremental approach allows the DMV to be responsive to changing needs and priorities. It also eliminates the need to develop a single, comprehensive RFP with one vendor which locks all parties into a pre-defined multi-year commitment with too many unknowns.

The Program of Manageable Projects allows the DMV to build the future system in a flexible manner that adapts to changing needs, conditions, and progress while still achieving the final goal.

6.1.3 Move at a Pace That Is Realistic Flexibility in the approach allows the DMV to speed up or slow down as the project progresses. This allows DMV to also respond to external changes that may also occur in the midst of the project. E.g. new legislative mandates. Many States have contracted

and committed to a predefined pace with a vendor only to find that either or both the State and the vendor cannot keep up.

The Program of Manageable Projects allows the DMV to develop a plan and incrementally achieve milestones. Once reaching a milestone and delivering business value, the state can assess the pace and adjust the schedule accordingly for the next milestones. This can be done in collaboration with vendors on a milestone and project basis but does not need to be locked in for the entire program.

6.1.4 Minimize Risk The Program of Manageable Projects is intentionally risk averse and places a high degree of control with the State. The Future System Blueprint, project definitions, and schedule are able to evolve over time.

6.1.5 Show Results Incrementally The Program of Manageable Projects is designed to deliver incremental business value by sequencing larger and smaller projects that provide new business functionality and incrementally build the future system.

6.1.6 Address High Priority Business Needs The Program of Manageable Projects allows the DMV to evaluate business needs and prioritize projects. Out of ten specific projects, four have been prioritized to address current needs:

Point of Sale System Data Warehouse/Next Generation Data Base Options Document Imaging II MyDMV (Customer Portal)

Over time, projects can be reprioritized as necessary to meet changing needs.

6.1.7 Impact on Other Plans – Code Freeze The modernization project will require the full dedication of all DMV business and technical resources. DMV should minimize enhancements to the legacy system during the modernization process unless necessitated by audit requirements, or changes in Federal or State laws.

6.2 Ten Priority Projects

Ten priority projects were developed during the planning process. Based on the current prioritization, they will be implemented as follows:

Separate, High Priority Project Incorporated into Core System Replacement

Point of Sale System Data Warehouse/Next Generation

Database Document Imaging II MyDMV (Customer portal)

Customer Management Correspondence Management DMV Knowledge Base (DMV

“Wikipedia”)

Record Requests Interfaces to External Systems DMV Website

6.2.1 Data Warehouse/Next Generation Database Project Description Design and Implement a Data Warehouse/Next Generation Database populated from the existing DMV databases to serve operational reporting, data analytics, and other data access needs. A data warehouse allows transaction level information to be analyzed in an efficient manner without impacting the performance of the operational database. The data warehouse would also be used to provide improved audit data. Business areas will have direct access to the Data Warehouse to meet their reporting needs.

Reporting and analysis tools used with the data warehouse would have the following features:

Standard Reporting – These reports are designed to meet the regular needs of DMV operations. The reports are run and distributed on a regular basis and used to manage DMV operations. Future systems must have tools that will allow these reports to be developed using primarily graphically means and scheduled to process automatically.

Ad-hoc Report – These reports are designed to meet special purpose needs. While similar to standard reports, they may not be scheduled or run repeatedly. Future systems should allow analysts to copy logic and designs from other reports to create new ones quickly.

Analysis – Analytical “number crunching” focuses on accessing and performing unique calculations. Future systems must provide reporting tools that manipulate data and allow it to be extracted for reporting.

Data Dictionary – A comprehensive data dictionary must be available that allows analysts to quickly understand and use the data that is in the system. The future system’s database will contain many tables and fields with complex definitions.

Report Library – The Reporting and Analysis tools must have a function for documenting the library of reports, their purpose and current usage statistics.

Scheduler and Distribution – The future system must be capable of scheduling reports to be run either one time or on a regular basis. In addition, it must have a facility for storing, managing and distributing completed reports electronically for access by authorized staff around the state.

Developing a Next Generation Database for Future Systems The data warehouse could also serve as a guideline for the next generation database that would support future system development. The data warehouse project would support data cleanup activities and the creation of a data dictionary.

Rollout Approach The data warehouse could be rolled out by business areas with the customer information being the logical starting point. The rest of the business areas would follow in some order. Those are Drivers, Vehicles, Records and Business Regulations.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 31 of 61

6.2.2 Point of Sale System Project Description The DMV operates many field offices and central groups that collect payments on a daily basis. The DMV field office operations include complete retail functions. The DMV system must support a complete “cash register” function that allows staff to offer and process services and collect appropriate payments for those services. The system must support multiple payment types and mixed types for a single transaction.

The system must interface with the other DMV functions that actually process the transactions and with the financial system that records and allocates all funds.

This project would implement a Point of Sale system to capture the financial portion of transactions performed in the field and headquarters. The system would include a cash drawer and receipt printer.

The system needs to support field and headquarter operations. The system must provide reconciliation functions and produce receipts that match to

the transactions performed. The system should accept all forms of payment including credit/debit card. It should

also support electronic check deposit. One payment can be made for multiple transactions and multiple forms of payment

are accepted for a single transaction. The system would need to interface to the core transaction systems (currently

referred to as DRIVE) to associate payments to base transactions. The system should support end of day reconciliation and bank deposits The system should provide an export of financial data to the central financial systems

for further reconciliation.

Rollout Approach The system should be implemented in a limited number of field offices (3 to 5) and headquarters as a pilot. The remaining field offices would be implemented weekly (5 to 7 per week) until all offices are using the system.

6.2.3 Customer Management Project Description Implement a centralized, comprehensive Customer Management (CM) system that would support all business functions. The system would be capable of accessing existing DMV databases and presenting a unified (360 degree) view of all DMV information and interactions with each customer. The system will manage an expanded set of customer information including the ability to collect and retain:

Longer names Multiple addresses Additional contact information Identity information Customer Interactions Correspondence log linked to document imaging Driver license and vehicle information Alerts for pending/upcoming transactions or expirations

Page 37: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 32 of 61

The Customer Management system would allow staff in the field and headquarters to better support the customer and identify potential fraud. The system must have role based security so that staff sees only appropriate information for their position.

Each customer in the DMV system needs to be assigned a unique customer number and the system must assist in managing unique numbers and not issuing duplicates to the same entity. This will allow the DMV to properly track and serve each unique business and individual.

DMV customers will be divided into two distinct but similarly managed categories, businesses and individuals. While specific information will be managed for each type of customer, the same basic functions and services will apply consistently to both. Customer data will be cleansed and organized to eliminate duplicates and other errors.

The system must also support the DMV’s identity verification process and similar functions where identifying documents are collected and tracked. Such documents and other related documents should be scanned and stored in a document management system when that function is available.

Rollout Approach The system would be incrementally rolled out to each functional area. Later phases could add functionality such as the tracking of customer correspondence, tracking of customer interaction and providing alerts to customers and staff for pending actions.

6.2.4 Document Imaging Phase II & Workflow Project Description Provide for up front capture of paper and electronic documents, tracking of documents, routing of documents to staff, and storage of documents for later use. Image capture includes paper documents (mail, fax, hard copy), system generated images, and other related electronic correspondence both in the field and central office. Document management requirements such as retention schedules also will be addressed in this project.

Electronic workflow improves efficiency by routing transactions and documents directly to staff that need to perform a process. This reduces the chance that a transaction might be lost. Workflow also provides a better method of tracking documents received and transaction status along with a transaction’s elapsed processing time. In addition, it allows tasks to be automatically distributed to staff based on their changing availability to support the function.

This project would be considered Phase II of the current document imaging project to replace the microfilm archive system.

When documents are scanned, some amount of data entry will be necessary to identify and index the documents.

This project could include the redesign of existing paper forms for better scanning and data capture. This could result in forms being bar-coded to include Form Numbers, Driver License Numbers, and Transaction Numbers

OCR (Optical Character Recognition) and bar-coded data may be used to automatically capture document data.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 33 of 61

Rollout Approach The system would be implemented and rolled out incrementally to the business areas. The Vehicles business area would be a logical starting point to improve transaction processing between the field and central offices.

6.2.5 Correspondence Management Project Description The DMV generates a significant amount of documents and notices which are used for both in-person and batch transactions. These print requests include many legal documents such as Vehicle Titles, Registrations, License Records, and notifications.

This project should build a Correspondence Management system that will merge document templates with appropriate data to produce a finished document. This system will allow the DMV to better manage the layout and consistency of documents and correspondence. It will also allow the DMV to manage production of documents to multiple media including paper, PDF, HTML, email, SMS Text, and fax.

This system will support all future DMV systems that generate documents and will thereby provide a common infrastructure for printing.

The system will enable users to directly modify templates and text. It will include templates to provide consistent correspondence to customers.

As the system becomes further integrated with existing and future systems, correspondence should automatically be generated from the transaction processing screens, and data will pre-fill, based on the application logic and data. Correspondence content could be automatically generated based on checklist and business conditions.

All correspondence will be saved to the document imaging system and linked to the customer. The system will need appropriate controls on edits and tracking for auditing.

Rollout Approach The approach for this project would be to provide Correspondence Management by business area.

6.2.6 MyDMV (Customer Portal) Project Description Design and implement a MyDMV Transaction Center where customers can perform online transactions, maintain their profile, check status, and track their transactions. The system could provide alerts to customers electronically for upcoming renewals or reminders for pending transactions. MyDMV will provide the capability to upload and download documents so that customers can attach documents to transactions. Customers will have a single logon credential and this will be the point of entry for the customer. Transactions will have business rules and data edits applied prior to submission so that applications and forms are submitted accurately and completely.

Implementation of a MyDMV Transaction Center should substantially reduce mail in transactions and potentially provide the opportunity to remove mail in transactions as an option.

A web-based transaction center will allow customers to securely identify themselves and process transactions. These may include:

Create a customer account (that may need to be confirmed with an in-person visit)

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 34 of 61

Apply for or change driving privileges Title or register a vehicle Request driver or vehicle records View the status of driving privileges and vehicle information Submit required documents & information Check the status of a transaction or application Submit payments for existing transactions Schedule appointments or transactions Request & schedule hearings File a complaint Provide proof of insurance

A similar partner-focused MyDMV could also be used for partners to access or provide information to the DMV. Potential partners and third parties include:

Courts Insurance Companies Law Enforcement Vehicle Dealers Ignition Interlock Device Installers DEQ Medical Professionals Other State Agencies Financial Institutions Instructors (Drivers’ Education, CDL, Motorcycle) Dismantlers/Salvage

Rollout Approach The system would be developed and rolled out incrementally. An initial framework would be developed with a first set of transactions and additional transactions and features would be added over time.

6.2.7 DMV Knowledge Base (DMV “Wikipedia”) Project Description Create and populate a DMV knowledge base to contain and cross reference manuals, procedures, and policy documentation. The information must be searchable and organized so that it is easy to navigate and supports the processing of transactions. The system should also allow staff to capture institutional and historical knowledge of procedures. Training materials could be stored and accessible and linked to manuals. This knowledge base would be used by DMV staff and limited access could be provided to external areas and customers as appropriate.

Features should include:

Robust searchable knowledgebase for processes and system instructions

Page 40: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 35 of 61

Framework for creating policies and procedure manuals that are consistent, up-to-date, and searchable

Consolidation of disparate manuals and sources of information including: Policy and procedures Best practices Institutional knowledge and process history Training and tutorial information

The approach to knowledge management must include staffing and support for collecting and maintaining information. The system could also be used to collect suggestions and process improvements and to disseminate process updates.

Rollout Approach After the framework is developed, each business area could migrate information on its own schedule.

6.2.8 Record Requests Project Description Implement a system to provide electronic records to low volume account holders. The records provided need to be easily understood and an explanation should be provided with the records. The requestor should be able to request and receive the records electronically using the DMV website. Records could also be provided overnight via mail if requested.

This project would automate the request, payment, and fulfillment of the records request transaction.

Account holders would be those not currently using the NIC website to order records. This process would replace or be used in addition to Interactive Voice Response. Account holders would order records directly instead of DMV needing to manually enter the order.

Rollout Approach A phased approach could be developed that would incrementally support new request types and customer groups.

6.2.9 Interfaces to External Systems Project Description Create improved (and possibly real-time) data interfaces between the DMV and external partners or third parties (Courts, Insurance Companies, Municipalities, etc.). The interfaces would include, as possible, enhanced validation of the data received. Any data that did not pass validation would be returned for error correction and resubmission.

This project would also begin the implementation of a new, standardized approach for building interfaces which are more consistent, easier to maintain, and easier to implement. This approach would allow the DMV to consistently support flat file, XML, web services and other interface approaches.

The Interface/Data ETL (Extraction/Transformation/Load) function must also manage a data dictionary that is used to support the definition of the fields and tables in the DMV data model.

Page 41: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 36 of 61

As possible, the new interfaces which read and provide DMV data could be built to access a new “Next Generation Database”. Once partners are accessing information from the new database it will allow the DMV to implement substantial changes to the core systems without impacting the external parties.

Interfaces with stronger validation prevent partners from submitting incomplete data or data with errors. Such data would come into DMV systems and then need to be reviewed by DMV staff.

Rollout Approach As the new interface approach is built interfaces could be identified, prioritized, implemented and rolled out incrementally.

6.2.10 DMV Website Project Description The DMV’s effectiveness depends upon getting proper information to its customers. A web-based information center will allow anyone to view a variety of important information that is publicly available. No User ID or authentication will be required for this system. The information available will include the following.

License Requirements – The public will be able to view the requirements and process for obtaining various personal and commercial driving privileges.

Consumer Reference Materials – Driving manuals, tutorials and other references will be available for viewing and downloading.

Business Reference Materials – Information for businesses that will allow them to more easily reference procedure guides, understand their responsibilities and easily conduct business with the DMV.

How-To Guide – Simple guides including video for completing transactions and conducting business with the DMV.

Obviously, the DMV has an existing public web site. Feedback from the user groups indicated that the web site either contained too much information or did not have sufficient search capabilities. The objective of this project is to create a “new and improved” version.

An example of new content would be a “So You Want to Be a Truck Driver – CDL Tutorial.” This type of online tool could provide extensive information that may reduce customer calls and questions.

Rollout Approach An initial review of existing web site content would be used to develop a new structure and a plan to incrementally develop and deploy or remove content.

6.3 Governance

Governance is critical for guiding the portfolio of projects and maintaining consistency. In addition, governance must be used to ensure that all projects and systems are part of a greater vision and that each is planned and designed to fit together.

Oversight Governance – Must coordinate with all business areas both operational and administrative to ensure that the impact of each project on each area is addressed.

Page 42: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 37 of 61

Project Management – Must ensure that each project is properly planned and organized. Each project will require participation from many groups and tasks must be assigned and progress tracked.

Functional/Change Management Governance – Must ensure that there is functional consistency among all of the systems being developed. It is too easy for one project to design screens or process steps that are not consistent with those of another project. Governance must coordinate and enforce across projects so that common designs and ideas are used consistently. This governance will also coordinate how change is introduced into each area.

Architectural Governance – Must ensure that technical approaches and tools are used in a consistent and maintainable approach and that all systems will “fit together”.

Quality Management – Must ensure that processes are being followed and that quality deliverables are being prepared.

6.3.1 Oversight Governance Oversight Governance must coordinate with all operational and administrative areas and must coordinate the Project Management, Functional, and Architectural Governance.

A strong governance structure is a forum for …

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 38 of 61

Governance must evaluate how current projects are being run and identify current strengths and weaknesses in delivery. Project management and delivery must be effective and focused and it must be scaled to address the proposed projects.

6.3.2 Project Management Project management tasks must be consistent across all projects.

A Project Director or Project Management Office (PMO) must be able to consolidate project status and information for overall reporting and management. Responsibilities include:

Evaluate DMV priorities and evolve the project strategy Develop metrics that measure projects and link to operational goals Develop and deploy project management standards Coordinate internal resources Collect status, report, and assess project progress Review the reasonability of project schedules Mentor project managers Serve as change agent to overcome resistance Keep project teams focused Develop procurement documents, such as Statements of Work

6.3.3 Functional Governance/Change Management Functional Governance must ensure consistency across the design of all projects and ensure that the DMV’s functional goals are being met. Responsibilities include:

Develop consistent models for business transactions Standardize the approach for business requirements & business rule

documentation Coordinate operational process changes and the development of new business

requirements Oversee consistent user interface designs across projects Coordinate the development of help files, procedure manuals, and training

documents across multiple projects Assist and mentor operational staff in project participation Coordinate with and guide operational areas to incorporate and implement

process changes

6.3.4 Architecture Governance Architecture Governance oversees the Future System Blueprint and the technology of the project. Responsibilities include:

Oversee and coordinate technology and approach Ensure all projects are consistent with Blueprint Continue to interpret and evolve Blueprint

Page 44: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 39 of 61

Provide and ensure that consistent architecture guidelines, design, and development standards are followed on all IT projects

Provide technology direction for the entire division Evaluate new technologies and how they can be applied to the on-going projects

or future projects Guide the projects on use of the new technology, if applicable Quality assurance on the code and design re-usability

6.3.5 Quality Management Quality Management includes both Quality Control (Testing) and Quality Assurance (Process Monitoring). All project work performed by vendors or State staff should be part of a Quality Management process.

Develop Test Plans & Tools Coordinate Testing Efforts Oversee and coordinate reviews of vendor deliverables Reporting and analysis of quality metrics

6.4 Procurement Document Development

It is not possible for the DMV staff to internally implement all of the projects needed to accomplish the modernization goals. Even if some level of new staff are hired, the projects will still require specialized skills and additional staffing levels to complete.

The DMV will need to procure services from various vendors to complete the modernization program. These services could include:

Business Process Mapping & Improvement Project Management & Technical Oversight Development of procurement materials, (RFI, RFQ, RFP, etc) Implementation of COTS products such as Document Imaging & Point of Sale

systems Custom Software Development Whole Solution COTS products Data Architect System Architect

The modernization program depends upon the State of Oregon’s procurement processes to finalize required documents, such as RFPs which are clear and thorough. The program could easily require the development of a range of Statements of Work (SOW) to be used in a variety of procurement bidding documents.

All procurement materials must be clear in terms of:

What Functional & Technical Requirements Deliverables

Process Bidding Process Response Format Evaluation Process

6.5 Procurement

In addition to design and development services, the project may require hardware, software, quality assurance, as well as staff supplementation. Whether these are available on existing state price agreements or require an RFP, the procurement process must be:

Efficient: Procurements move quickly and all parties know the process and their role.

Effective: Procurements result in unprotestable awards, without rebidding, including a fair number of qualified bidders.

6.6 Vendor Management

As multiple vendors are engaged to participate in the modernization effort, the DMV must organize the skills, staff, and resources necessary to oversee and coordinate them.

The DMV has organized, capable project management and portfolio management processes which must be supported and applied to each vendor.

7. Data Management Approach to Incremental Expansion As the DMV continues to build new functionality using modern technology, old and new systems must be bridged, able to share data, and co-exist. A preliminary approach has been identified that will allow new systems to exchange data with old systems. This approach is important because it allows the DMV to modernize incrementally, rather than with one giant replacement of all systems.

The opportunity to build incrementally allows the DMV to consider a broader array of strategies when planning the modernization.

7.1 The Role of the Next Generation Database

Currently, DMV data is stored in the mainframe DB2 legacy database as well as other systems. These databases and data structures are not consolidated and not properly organized for expandability. Moving forward, all DMV data will be combined into a “Next Generation” relational database capable of expansion while better supporting operational and reporting needs.

Page 46: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 41 of 61

The following diagram shows how multiple existing data sources would be linked to a Next Generation Database. Data could continually flow from existing systems to the New System and both would have up-to-date data.

As this system is architected and implemented, disaster recovery capabilities will be enhanced for both current and future operations. This includes maintaining a separate full copy of customer data and the creation of a database that is designed to be more resilient.

7.2 Linking Existing and New Systems

In the following diagram, existing systems update the existing databases and that information is forwarded to the new database. Also, new systems update the new database. The new systems also update the existing systems so that they stay up-to-date and operational.

The following diagram shows how the project incrementally builds different subsystems in the Future System Blueprint.

The result is that all of the needed subsystems in the Blueprint are accounted for as shown in this final diagram.

The only systems not specifically accounted for are the Testing Systems which were lower in priority because of their current condition and Knowledge Management which can be addressed with any number of solutions as necessary as the project progresses.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 45 of 61

8.1 Schedule Overview

8.2 Business Process Improvement & Requirements Analysis

The DMV has already begun the effort of business process improvement through its work with Mathtech to create a vision for each business area. These documents describe current challenges and opportunities for improvement. They also describe a general plan for modernizing services. This completed work will guide and structure this project.

This project is expected to be 18 months or less in duration depending upon the availability of staff to participate, the number of facilitators, the experience of the team, and availability of current business rule and process documentation.

Key tasks include:

Review of business processes that have been “frozen in time” due to system inflexibility

Identify opportunities for improvement needed to achieve the operational vision Review and document business rules and process steps for implementation in

new systems Identify operational improvements that may require legislative changes Collect functional requirements for the core system to use in procurement

document development Identify technical requirements that may impact procurement document

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 46 of 61

Consider release of Request for Information (RFI) of existing systems to evaluate potential partial or whole solution COTS products that can support the modernization.

8.3 Priority Projects

Ten priority projects were identified in the earlier planning steps that resulted in this strategy. Each of these projects was described in Section 6.2 of this document. Four projects were prioritized by DMV leadership for early implementation and the others were schedule to be implemented as part of the core systems. The four projects are:

Point of Sale System Data Warehouse/Next Generation Database Document Imaging II MyDMV (Customer Portal)

8.3.1 Point of Sale System The Point of Sale system implementation will begin in Year 1. This project includes requirements analysis and RFP development. It is expected that a Commercial Off-The-Shelf (COTS) package will support many necessary functions and will be part of the foundation for the modernization.

This effort could leverage vendor resources to perform the implementation.

8.3.2 Data Warehouse/Next Generation Database . Database The DMV will begin design and construction of a next generation data warehouse in Year 1 of the project. The new database will serve as a staging and cleansing tool for existing data and a base for new system functionality. This project

Page 52: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 47 of 61

This effort will be competed using internal resources for the database design but could leverage vendor resources to install and configure data transformation and interface tools and report writers.

8.3.3 Document Imaging & Workflow - Phase II Document Imaging and workflow is a critical component for modernization. The scheduling should be consistent with the ongoing document imaging project but must be completed timely in order to support the Vehicle Title & Registration project.

The system will include workflow management to link them to customer transactions and route documents between staff.

Currently, this project is scheduled to start in year 1 with planning, the actual implementation proceeds after the development of an RFP and procurement which should align it with the current document imaging project.

8.3.4 MyDMV Web based transactions are a critical element of the future vision. This project begins in Year 1 to develop additional services that will interact with the current systems. The approach includes continual iterations that will add new web services supporting the existing systems and then the new core systems.

The DMV will likely leverage external resources to develop the MyDMV framework and build new services. The architecture must be designed so that services can be provided using existing systems and then later, the new systems, once they are implemented.

Page 53: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 48 of 61

DMV IS resources familiar with the current systems will be critical in interfacing MyDMV to current systems.

This project will continue iteratively for years as new services are created and deployed.

8.4 Core System RFP Development

As described in Section 6.4, the development of procurement documents will be an important task supporting modernization. This project focuses on the develop of one or more solicitations to implement the core Vehicle Title & Registration and Driver Licensing & Records systems as well as support for Dealers and Record Requests.

The DMV could engage external support to organize the procurement process, facilitate collection of information, draft the RFP, and even assist with the evaluation of proposals.

8.5 Core System

The Business Process Improvement project will collect requirements for the core systems and determine what COTS products are available to be part of the solution. This could result in the identification of a Whole Solution COTS product or smaller components. These findings will shape the implementation of the core systems.

Vehicle Title & Registration will be the first systems to be replaced. In conjunction with this, support for Dealers and Electronic Vehicle Records will be implemented.

Driver Licensing & Driver Records would precede only after successful completion of the vehicle systems is nearing completion.

This schedule includes

4 months for the RFP to be “on the street” and 4 months to

evaluate and award.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 49 of 61

8.5.1 Vehicle Title & Registration Beginning in year 3, the DMV will commence development of the Vehicle Title & Registration System. This project will implement all vehicle related functionality and implement a broad range of foundation technologies including Customer Manager, the Rules Engine, and Correspondence Management.

This project begins after two years of preparation including business process improvement, requirements analysis, review of solutions, and the development of an RFP and the award to a vendor.

Overall duration is three years to implement the system. Leverage ODOT system development methodology or a vendor’s methodology

as appropriate Includes substantial reengineering of title & registration processes. Builds on the Point of Sale, Next Generation Database, Document Imaging, and

MyDMV efforts

8.5.2 Dealers There are a number of support functions and smaller systems that must be migrated from the DMV mainframe and client/server environments and integrated into the modernized system. This includes:

Business Regulations System Dealer Business Regulations Dealers License Lookup Internet Dealer Notices EVR - Electronic Vehicle Registration Interface

EVR functionality to support external dealer service providers needs to be developed by September 2016. This requires a new interface that can support both the current system and the future system.

In addition, an RFP must be developed to procure external dealer services. These tasks are scheduled to begin in Year 2 of the project. Year 1 activities will guide the technical approach and help to determine if an RFP is needed for implementation services.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 50 of 61

8.5.3 Driver Licensing & Driver Records Beginning in Year 4, the DMV will commence with the design and development of the Driver Licensing & Driver Records systems. This system will build upon the foundation already implemented. Customer management, MyDMV, document imaging, workflow, and many other technologies will have been implemented and will reduce the complexity of this development effort.

From a planning perspective, this project includes both the driver licensing functions and the driver records management functions that perform suspension and restoration of driving privileges along with significant driver correspondence.

This project begins after the vehicle title & registration is significantly underway and entering the testing phases.

Overall duration is three years to implement Includes substantial improvements and automation of the driver licensing

process

8.5.4 Record Requests This project would begin in Year 6 of the modernization program. The goal is to automate all record request functions including request submission, request review, payment, record retrieval, and delivery. This project is scheduled to begin as the driver licensing functions are nearing the end of testing a rollout.

This project has a two year duration for implementation.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 51 of 61

As the modernization effort progresses, these functions may be implement through third party vendors or through the MyDMV project.

9. Staffing Requirements

9.1 FTE Staffing Estimates

The work effort required for the modernization projects was based on models developed by Mathtech. The models used input from general software development models as well as specific models used for DMV system development. The following staff levels were used for each project.

Project Name Starts in Year

Duration (Years)

IT FTEs Required

Business FTEs Required

Business Process Improvement 1 1.5 2.00 8.00

Data Warehouse and Reporting 1 1.5 4.00 2.00

Point of Sale 1 1.7 3.00 2.50

Document Imaging 1 4 6.00 3.00

MyDMV 1 9 5.00 2.25

Core System RFP Development 2 1 1.00 2.00

Dealers 3 2 9.00 2.00

Vehicle Title & Registration 3 3.1 18.00 5.50

Driver Licensing & Driver Records 5 3.1 25.00 6.00

Record Requests 6 2.1 8.00 2.00

The following table shows the staffing required for governance.

Governance FTEs Starts in Year

Duration (Years) Gov. FTEs

Project Management 1 9.5 2

Functional Governance 1 9.5 2

Architecture Governance 1 9 2

Quality Management 1 9 2

Staffing levels are dependent upon many factors including skill sets, experience, work quality, definition of scope of work, support tools, and management.

This chart shows the results of totaling the staffing levels for each project and for governance across all active project years. These staffing levels would be difficult to

Page 57: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 52 of 61

sustain for the DMV if all resources were filled with internal State employees, especially without substantial new hires.

Most of the projects have been described with some level of vendor support. Vendor staff would replace a portion of the State staff participation in the above model.

The following chart is developed by using the following parameters:

75% of the IT staffing is replaced by vendor staff 0% of the Business staffing is replaced by vendor staff 60% of the Governance staffing is replaced by vendor staff

When this substitution is made, the total count for State staff participation peaks at 29 FTEs.

ODOT DMV Strategic Plan Version 3 Final.docx Page 53 of 61

9.2 Staffing Skill Sets

Another aspect of the staffing challenge is developing the proper skill sets for the project where State staff are participating.

IT Staff – IT staff will require retraining and supplementation to participate on parts of the project using new technologies. Some aspects of the modernization will focus on interfacing new systems with existing systems. In these cases, the existing staff will have the required expertise.

Business Staff – Business staff generally have the expertise required to describe current and future business operations. Vendors cannot substitute for this role.

Governance Staff – State staff may not have the skills or experience necessary to manage such a large project or to oversee vendors. Training in project management, quality management and other skills may be necessary but may not substitute for large project experience.

9.3 Staffing – Dual Burden

An additional burden on staffing is the need to focus on the planning and development of the new systems while also maintaining the existing systems and, in some cases, expand the existing systems to meet legislative and other functional needs.

This issue must always be a consideration when planning and funding the modernization effort and every state deals with this challenge. Some states leverage vendors and staff supplementation, some hire new project staff, and some hire new staff to make existing staff available. In all cases, staffing must be attended to early in the project and it is critical to minimize or completely freeze changes to the existing system. See Section 6.1.7 Impact on Other Plans – Code Freeze.

10. Cost Estimates

10.1 Staffing Costs

The following cost estimates have been developed using the staffing models presented in Section 9. The following parameters were used:

Staff Hourly Rate

State IT Staff $ 70.00

State Business Staff $ 45.00

State Governance Staff $ 70.00

Vendor IT Staff $ 110.00

Vendor Governance Staff $ 130.00

Annual Inflation Rate: 2.00%

Though not realistic, the following chart shows the staffing costs if only State staff were used. The annual cost peaks at approximately $10M per year.

The following chart shows staffing costs when vendor participation is included. Annual cost peaks at under $14M in Year 5.

10.2 New Software Costs

The project budget estimates a core amount of COTS software products that will be used to implement some foundation and base subsystems. The overall solution will evolve over the course of the project but these components will need to be satisfied.

The current solution assumes that the mainframe will continue to be the primary database platform.

Strategic Information System Plan – Strategic Plan for DMV Modernization

11.2 Technology Costs

The current DMV systems are primarily based on the State’s Mainframe environment for which the DMV pays associated costs. While there are Client/Server based systems they are smaller and have fewer costs associated with them.

Moving forward, the new environment will still leverage the State’s Mainframe for database management but less so for business applications. The new environment will also include a substantial amount of new COTS software that will require annual licensing fees.

The following table includes estimates that show that the transition from the existing systems to the new system environment will not significantly change the annual technology costs.

Total $ 9,565,000 $ 4,080,000

$ 3,893,000 Negligible Reduction in Costs

11.3 IS Staffing Costs for Maintenance and Enhancements

The current DMV IT team consists of 55 staff. The most significant change that will occur in the staffing is that substantially new skill sets will be needed. Over the course of the modernization project, the systems will migrate from the legacy COBOL environment to new programming languages and COTS tools. This will require the IT staff to be retrained in these products. This transition will occur over a ten-year period during which some staff will naturally turn-over and need to be replaced.

The actual skill sets needed in the future cannot fully be determined until particular solutions are selected.

11.4 New Services & Mission Failure

This document and the preceding work have described significant operational impediments caused by the current systems. In addition, they describe a vision for future operations which is modern, but not groundbreaking relative to private sector business standards.

As the DMV moves forward with its existing system it will continue to face:

Legislative revisions and additions New revenue opportunities, Increased attempts at fraud, Demands for modern service delivery by residents and businesses, and Continued pressure to reduce operating costs.

None of these challenges can be practically addressed with the DMV’s current, outdated systems. Conversely, as time moves on without new systems, the DMV faces an increasing likelihood of failure to successfully conduct its day-to-day mission.

Taking a page from the National Bridge Inspection Standards (NBIS), the DMV systems would be considered: Structurally Deficient (SD)

This status is determined because the Appraisal Rating would be:“2 – Basically intolerable requiring high priority of replacement”

• DMV has spent considerable effort to maintain and maximize the current systems but they must be replaced.

• Current systems do not provide a platform to move forward.• IT staff skill sets are focused on the current systems.

GRANT AGREEMENT ConnectOregon IV

MULTIMODAL TRANSPORTATION FUND PROGRAM 2012 Project Name: Terminal 6 Wharf Optimization

THIS GRANT PROGRAM AGREEMENT, hereinafter referred to as “Agreement” is made and entered into by and between the STATE OF OREGON, acting by and through its Department of Transportation, hereinafter referred to as “ODOT,” and Port of Portland, hereinafter referred to as “Recipient,” hereinafter individually referred to as the “Party” and collectively referred to as the “Parties.”

RECITALS

1. By the authority granted in Oregon Revised Statute (ORS) 190.110, 366.572, and 366.576, state agencies may enter into agreements with counties, cities, and units of local government for the performance of any or all functions and activities that a party to the agreement, its officers, or agents have the authority to perform.

2. Pursuant to ORS 367.080 through 367.086, there is established the Multimodal Transportation Fund, separate and distinct from the General Fund, allowing for the issuance of lottery bonds for the purpose of financing grants and loans to fund Transportation Projects to public bodies and private entities that involve air, marine, rail or public transit.

3. The Multimodal Transportation Fund Program began through ConnectOregon, a one hundred million dollar ($100,000,000) lottery-bond-based initiative approved by the Oregon Legislative Assembly in 2005 (Oregon Laws 2005, Chapter 816), to invest in air, rail, public transit, and marine transportation projects to ensure Oregon’s transportation system is strong, diverse and efficient. The Oregon Legislative Assembly added an additional one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000) in 2007 (Oregon Laws 2007, Chapter 859), one hundred million dollars ($100,000,000) in 2009 (Oregon Laws 2009, Chapter 865 – HB 2001), and forty million dollars ($40,000,000) in 2011 (Oregon Laws 2011, Chapter 624, HB 5036. The Multimodal Transportation Fund Program is focused on improving the connections between air, rail, marine and transit modes of transportation to reduce transportation costs to businesses, remove key bottlenecks, and increase connectivity.

4. The receipt and use of Multimodal Transportation Funds and the execution of this Agreement by Recipient are subject to conditions imposed by ORS 367.080 through 367.086 and Oregon Administrative Rule (OAR) Chapter 731, Division 35.

5. The Oregon Transportation Commission approved the projects to be funded under the Multimodal Transportation Fund Program at its August 2012 meeting. The Oregon Transportation Commission has set specific conditions on all approved projects and the inability to meet these Oregon Transportation Commission conditions may result in a loss of Project funding. Final approval for Project is subject to meeting all the Oregon Transportation Commission conditions as stated below.

MEMORANDUM    DATE:   August  9,  2013    TO:   Tim  Potter,  ODOT  Area  3  Manager     Art  James,  ODOT  Office  of  Innovative  Partnerships    FROM:   John  Bosket,  P.E.     Ray  Delahanty,  AICP    SUBJECT:   I-­‐5/Kuebler  Boulevard  Interchange  Unsolicited  Proposal     Independent  Consultant  Evaluation   P#09042-­‐029-­‐003  

 This  memorandum  summarizes  key  findings  from  the  independent  consultant  evaluation  of  two  improvement  concepts  for  the  I-­‐5/Kuebler  Boulevard  interchange  in  Salem,  Oregon.  The  first  concept  is  an  unsolicited  private  proposal  for  a  diverging  diamond  interchange  (DDI),  and  the  second  concept  is  an  ODOT  design  for  a  partial  cloverleaf  interchange  (ParClo).  

Enclosed  with  this  memorandum,  you  will  find:  

1) a  copy  of  the  evaluation  framework  matrix  developed  in  consultation  with  the  evaluation  panel  that  includes  recommended  scores  for  select  criteria  based  on  our  review  of  both  proposals,  and    

2) supplemental  worksheets  documenting  the  findings  that  led  to  scores  for  each  criterion.  3) technical  appendix  containing  documentation  of  independent  consultant  evaluation  

The  independent  consultant  team  was  tasked  with  evaluating  the  two  concepts,  scoring  them  on  a  set  of  24  different  parameters  related  to  project  characteristics  such  as  traffic  performance,  safety,  and  multimodal  elements  (other  parameters  remain  to  be  scored  by  evaluation  panel  members).  Most  of  the  scoring  of  these  24  parameters  shows  little  or  no  difference  between  the  two  concepts.  The  table  below  highlights  the  areas  where  the  performance  of  the  two  concepts  differs  significantly.

I-­‐5/Kuebler  Boulevard  Interchange  Independent  Consultant  Evaluation  August  9,  2013  Page  2  of  2  

The  intersection  most  in  need  of  improvement  under  existing  and  future  traffic  conditions  is  I-­‐5  Southbound/Kuebler  Boulevard,  which  operates  at  a  volume/capacity  (v/c)  ratio  of  1.30  in  the  2035  PM  peak  hour.  Under  the  DDI,  this  intersection  improves  to  only  a  1.22  v/c,  while  the  ParClo  allows  it  to  operate  under  capacity,  at  0.97  v/c.  

The  difference  in  intersection  operations  relates  directly  to  travel  time  on  Kuebler  Boulevard.  Under  the  ParClo,  the  two  ramp  terminal  signals  offer  significantly  more  green  time  to  westbound  traffic  than  under  the  DDI.  This  allows  traffic  traveling  from  36th  Avenue  to  27th  Avenue  to  achieve  travel  times  that  may  approach  about  three  minutes.  With  the  DDI  providing  much  less  green  time  for  westbound  traffic  and  experiencing  serious  congestion  at  the  I-­‐5  Southbound  ramp  terminal,  this  same  trip  could  take  more  than  ten  minutes.

Unsolicited Proposal: DDI ODOT Proposal: ParClo

In the southbound direction, the DDI includes only one merge point compared to the two merge points included in the ParClo design. However, the southernmost merge of the ParClo will be more congested than the northern merge and, therefore, will be the bottleneck. Because the controlling southernmost merge of the ParClo operates at the same v/c ratio as the southern merge of the DDI, southbound operations between the two designs will be similar.

Key Parameter: 2035 PM peak v/c ratios on I-5 Northbound merge

Scoring Explanation

The DDI consolidates all northbound merging traffic onto one northbound on-ramp, resulting in operations at the HDM v/c threshold (0.75).

The ParClo maintains separate ramps for traffic coming from the east and west, resulting in two merges that operate below the HDM v/c threshold.

Scoring Explanation

2035 2042

Merges, diverges, and basic segments generally operate the same for the DDI and the ParClo. The northbound merge, however, operates differently for the two concepts. The ParClo maintains the two existing on-ramps, splitting the merging volume and creating operations that meet the 0.75 standard until 2042. The DDI consolidates merging volume on one ramp, and this movement fails to meet the design standard after 2035.

Additional Information

The DDI outperforms the ParClo in the northbound direction, with lower v/c ration in the 2035 AM and PM peak hours. However, it is not the purpose of the ParClo concept to address the northbound ramp terminal, which operates well under capacity in the PM peak hour (0.40 v/c) today. A project (a second northbound right turn lane) has been identified to address future operational issues at this intersection, and will be constructed when needed.

Key Parameter: 2035 PM peak westbound travel time from 36th Ave. to 27th Ave., accounting for signal delay at ramp terminals

Scoring Explanation

Signals at the ramp terminals under the DDI impose significant delay on westbound traffic. The total travel time suggested by the HCM analysis, 10-15 minutes, is significantly higher than the 6 minutes under No Build conditions.

Ramp terminal signals under the ParClo concept provide more green time for westbound through movements that the DDI or No Build. This results in improved westbound travel times.

Scoring Explanation

The two northbound merges under the ParClo concept generally perform better than the single northbound merge under the DDI (0.68 and 0.64 v/c compared to 0.75 v/c). However, the DDI has just two of these potential conflict points, while the ParClo has four. In this evaluation, the number of conflict points was deemed a more important consideration than the small difference in operations.

Scoring Explanation

No improvements to I-5 are included in the DDI design. If future modifications are required full construction of widenings will be required in both directions.

The ParClo is compatible with future improvements. The ramps have been positioned so that widening of I-5 can be accomplished. Portions of the ramp merges will be adequate to require only restriping for the addition of another lane to I-5.

Addition of lanes on I-5 will require full widening for the northbound lanes for both concepts. For the I-5 southbound, the new ramps are being reconstructed to be compatible with potential future I-5 widening. Ramps under the DDI would likely need to be reconstructed depending on where the widening occurs.

Scoring Explanation

The existing configuration consists of two lanes in each direction. Widening will be required for additional lanes on either side of Kuebler. R/W is not available for addition of lanes in 3 quadrants. R/W will need to be obtained and lanes will need to be constructed.

The ParClo layout includes a third lane in the westbound direction in the ramp area and over the existing bridge. Widening will not be required for the addition of a westbound lane, but will be required for the westbound transitions, as well as the eastbound lanes. R/W will not be required for this alternate.

The DDI widening will require widening or replacement of the existing bridge to accommodate two additional lanes, whereas the ParClo future bridge will need to accommodate one additional lane.

MEMORANDUM DATE: August 2, 2013 TO: DKS Associates FROM: OBEC Consulting Engineers SUBJECT: I-5/Kuebler Boulevard Interchange, Environmental Evaluation Memorandum

The purpose of this memorandum is to document the potential impacts to identified water resources (wetlands and streams) for the two proposed I-5/Kuebler Interchange designs. Project activities which may directly or indirectly impact water resources are discussed below. Background information is provided to detail the water resources within the project area. Impacts to West Fork Pringle Creek Background: West Fork Pringle Creek (WFPC) is an intermittent stream flowing east and north through the project area in the northwest interchange quadrant. If not already available, more information may be required to determine stream hydrology as well as the presence, type and life history stages of fish within WFPC. These details would clarify the jurisdictional status of the stream. Coordination with the ODFW district biologist to determine WFPC's characteristics is recommended, if not already complete. WFPC is not identified as critical salmonid habitat by the US Fish and Wildlife Service.1 According to the National Marine Fisheries Service, WFPC within the project area is listed as essential fish habitat.2 Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL) maps indicate that WFPC is not classified as essential salmonid habitat.3 According to the Oregon Department of Transportation GIS, no barriers to fish passage have been identified along WFPC from the project area to its confluence with Pringle Creek.4

• ParClo: Construction of the southbound on and off ramps will impact approximately 0.124 acres of WFPC requiring relocation of a segment of the stream.5 The initial design proposes easement acquisition from the northwest (NW) landowner for stream relocation. Consultation with ODFW has taken place for the proposal, and all necessary permits for stream relocation have been acquired.6

• DDI: The DDI design does not require relocation of WFPC. In addition, it does not appear that fill/removal activities will take place within the regulated work area below ordinary high water of WFPC. The proposed DDI design will not directly impact WFPC and, therefore, it is not anticipated that fill/removal permits from USACE and DSL will be needed. 7

Impacts to Wetlands Background: According to the 1999 DSL Wetlands Inventory, wetlands are located in the NW interchange quadrant.8 The map indicates that the wetlands in this area were not field-verified. US Fish and Wildlife Service National Wetlands Inventory maps indicate no wetlands within the project area.9 If not already complete, verification of all potential wetlands resources within the project area is recommended. Wetland delineation by a professional wetland scientist is required for verification.

• ParClo: Construction will impact areas identified by DSL as wetlands, and offsetting mitigation is therefore required. The initial design proposes easement acquisition from the NW landowner for wetland mitigation.10 A Joint Permit Application was submitted to DSL/US Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) in February, 2012 for authorization of impacts to wetlands.11

• DDI: The proposed DDI design does not directly impact areas identified by DSL as wetlands within the project area.12 Therefore, fill/removal permits from USACE and DSL are not anticipated to be needed.

Impacts to ESA Species

• ParClo: According to the No Effect Memo dated 4/4/2012, no rare plants were found in the project area and the project area does not overlap with the occurrence of listed terrestrial species or their critical habitat. SLOPES IV consultation with NMFS and USACE has been completed regarding aquatic species and water quality impacts.13

• DDI: A plant survey will need to be completed for the project area, and a No Effect

Memorandum will be submitted to cover terrestrial species.14 The project is anticipated to satisfy either the FAHP or SLOPES programmatic biological opinion for listed aquatic species and water quality.15

Impervious Surface

• ParClo: Net impervious surface within the project area will increase, although the total increase was not quantified for this evaluation. Design drawings indicate stormwater conveyance and water treatment facilities will be located within the existing right-of-way (ROW).16 A more in-depth evaluation of stormwater treatment for the proposed design will require a Stormwater Management Plan.

• DDI: Net impervious surface within the project area will increase, although the total increase was not quantified for this evaluation. Design drawings indicate that stormwater conveyance and treatment facilities have been proposed.17 According to the DDI design proposal, no stormwater runoff will go into WFPC.18 A more in-depth evaluation of stormwater treatment for the proposed design will require a Stormwater Management Plan.

Erosion Control

• ParClo: This design will comply with ODOT's Erosion Control Plan. A National Pollution Discharge Elimination System 1200-C permit has already been obtained.19

• DDI: This design will comply with ODOT's Erosion Control Plan. Construction activities will be covered under the existing 1200-C permit.20

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Funding Level 1: This level is based on a Congressional Budget Office estimate assuming potential Congressional actions adding $10B-$15B annually to the Highway Trust Fund. This estimate represents an approximate 20% increase over 2012-15 funding levels. Funding Level 2: This level represents a continuation of current funding levels (2012-15) extended to 2015-18. This level is based on 2009's SAFETEA-LU numbers, inflated by 5% and then flat lined for 2012-15. Funding Level 3: This level assumes no additional revenues go into the Federal Highway Trust Fund and no Congressional actions. This level represents an approximate 20% decrease from 2012-15 funding levels. Category Allocation 1: 10% increase in the amount allocated to Fix-It compared to the current allocation percentage, resulting in a 10% decrease in the amount allocated to Enhance. Category Allocation 2: Extending the current allocation percentages to both Fix-It and Enhance Category Allocation 3: 10% increase in the amount allocated to Enhance compared to the current allocation percentage, resulting in a 10% decrease in the amount allocated to Fix-It.

Fix-It Guiding Principles

Balance Regulatory Compliance

Maintain relative balance between programs taking into account risks (safety) and magnitude of investment

Ensure minimum environmental, federal, state and local compliance is maintained on the transportation system

Leverage Economy

Leverage existing funding to attract more revenue opportunities

Maximize economic opportunities and minimize economic hardships as a result of transportation investments

Maintenance Cost Effectiveness

Focus on investments on features that are difficult and expensive to maintain

Allocate funding in a way that maximizes return on investment

Safety System Continuity

Maintain or enhance transportation safety on the system

Fund investments that minimize risk of transportation system failure

Priority Corridor Approach

• Strategy focuses on holding conditions on higher priority routes, lower priority drop.

• 20% of Fix-it funds• Select priority corridors

– OTIA III routes (stages 1-3)– Seismic routes

Criteria Yes No Comments

Consistent with priorities of the Area Commissions on Transportation (ACT) in the region

X

This project has support of the local communities in the Gorge, Oregon Parks, USFS, and the Historic Columbia River Highway Advisory Committee.

Consistent with statewide plans and policy direction, such as the Oregon Transportation Plan and the Freight Plan

X

The Historic Columbia River Highway (HCRH) State Trail implementation is consistent with Oregon Transportation Plan Strategy 1.1.4. This trail responds to the existing transportation need to access the Gorge by multiple modes. The project provides a cost effective solution that will have long term benefits by providing access to abandoned highway segments and providing access to under-developed State Parks. The State Trail also is consistent with Oregon Highway Plan Action 1G.1 as it protects the existing system and provides alternative access for cyclists and pedestrians through the Gorge. In addition, this project improves the efficiency and capacity of Interstate 84 (I-84) by providing parallel bike and pedestrian facilities and by taking advantage of the abandoned highway segments, where feasible.

Located on either a statewide or interstate route, or justify why it is of statewide importance

X

The HCRH State Trail parallels I-84 and provides access to bicyclists and pedestrians where no facility currently exists. In addition, the Oregon State legislature has directed ODOT to complete the trail through joint resolution.

Located on a freight route or part of the National Highway System (NHS)

X This improvement provides the seamless, separated, multi-modal bike and pedestrian facilities adjacent to Interstate 84.

Page 230: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Has the appropriate planning work been completed and the proposed project been vetted as a priority, provide a description of those efforts:

The Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area (CRGNSA) Act of 1986 directed the State of Oregon to reconnect the abandoned portions of the Historic Columbia River Highway as a pedestrian and bike trail. In 1987, the Oregon Legislature directed the Oregon Department of Transportation to plan for the reconnection on this scenic route as the State Trail. The project has been identified as Project of Statewide Significance and has extensive local and regional support. The Preliminary Engineering work is funded and is being managed by the Western Federal Lands Highway Division (WFLHD) of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The environmental planning work associated with the 10-mile the HCRH State Trail corridor is funded by a grant to the United States Forest Service (USFS) through the Paul Sarbanes Transit in Parks Program. This project is listed in the 2012-2015 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). WFLHD is managing the project, which includes the development of bid-ready plans for the trail segment in the Spring of 2015. This project is considered a continuation of that work. The project will be classified as a Categorical Exclusion and resource surveys are in process. Geotechnical investigations will commence in the Fall 2013, and WFLHD will submit for a Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area Permit in the Summer of 2014. The Trail is an identified project in the CRGNSA Management Plan as well as the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department’s Gorge Management Unit Master Plan. Environmental clearances are antipcipated in the Winter of 2015.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

The project will complete a critical portion of the HCRH State Trail, which directly supports tourism and economic development efforts in nearby towns and communities by attracting heritage tourists and recreational users. Once complete, the State Trail will be a world class destination for cyclists and hikers. The plan aims to develop trailheads and trail hubs in urban areas to encourage cyclists and hikers to visit these Gorge communities on their way to discover and explore the nearby recreational resources. Trail users will be drawn into these urban areas after recreating for food, beverages, and supplies that will enhance tourism and recreational opportunities. Cycling is an important and growing sector in Oregon Tourism. Jerry Norquist, Ride Director for Cycle Oregon, stated:

“The Columbia Gorge is one of the most scenic areas in the state to tour by bicycle. If the trail sections of the Historic Columbia River Highway were complete, I believe the route would draw out-of-state and international bicycle tourists more than any other route in Oregon”.

Many of these small towns are economically distressed from having to shift away from a resource-based economy and this additional recreational amenity will bring welcomed tourism opportunities and improved economic vitality. Travel Oregon is conducting a study in 2013 to quantify the economic benefit and potential of the State Trail to these Gorge communities. Use of the Historic Columbia River Highway State Trail is anticipated to increase exponentially as the effort to create uninterrupted State Trail corridor comes closer to completion. In 2011, the HCRH State Trail saw 360,000 visitors and recreational users --- a nearly 200% increase over the State Trail's annual usage in 2004.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

Interstate 84 is a major interstate freeway with over 22,600 average daily trips (2010, MP 54). With speed limits of 65 miles per hour on Interstate 84 and a high volume of heavy trucks, access to the Columbia River Gorge in a mode other than a motor vehicle is dangerous and often too daunting for the average rider or hiker. To currently access many sections of the Columbia Gorge, cyclists from nearby Portland, Hood River and other communities must use the shoulder of Interstate 84 for a portion of their journey. Providing a trail through the Gorge will eliminate the need to ride on the shoulder of I-84, increasing safety for non-motorized users in the Gorge.

Additionally, the Historic Highway provides secondary access for emergency vehicles or fire trucks in event of an emergency. The design will be in accordance with the Historic Columbia River Highway Design Guidelines which maintains a maximum grade of 5% with limited exceptions identified in the Guidelines.

This project contributes to the development of a seamless and properly separated multi-modal transportation system along the Columbia Gorge, which includes shipping lanes on the River, Union Pacific Trains, an Interstate Highway for trucks and cars and a State Trail for cyclists, pedestrians and mobility impaired individuals. Instead of having to ride on an unsafe and unpleasant system where cyclists and pedestrians are forced to use the shoulder of I-84 trail users will be safely on a multi-use path parallel to I-84.

Project is in the I-5 Corridor (Portland – Eugene) one of the more densely populated areas of the state. Project will increase the efficiency of the Eugene – Portland segment of the I-5 (a critical part of the Oregon road network). Project will result in some drivers shifting to transit with all the attendant benefits; more efficient use of existing roadway capacity, more personal transportation related expenditures staying in Oregon (local/regional multiplier effect of money spent on transit many times that of money spent on driving alone), less pollution/GHG emissions as a result of mode shift to transit. Project will take advantage of and support ODOT investments in transit, passenger rail, the Salem multi-modal transit center (Amtrak Station) and the Woodburn Park & Ride.

Located on a freight route or part of the National Highway System (NHS)

X Project is in the I-5 Corridor (Portland – Eugene)

Has the appropriate planning work been completed and the proposed project been vetted as a priority, provide a description of those efforts:

RPTD staff have reviewed the service in the Portland – Eugene corridor and compared service levels in the Salem – Portland (25ish round trips per weekday) corridor to the Boulder – Denver corridor (85+ round trips per weekday) and it is their judgment that with higher frequency service, bus and rail ridership in the corridor will increase significantly. Higher service frequency will result in better connections to other existing transit services, strengthening the overall transit network. The last Flex Fund grant cycle provided a bus now in operation that sets the stage for increased service. The second bus requested under the Enhance-it program, will support higher frequency service in the corridor.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located: Higher frequency transit service in the Portland – Eugene corridor will:

• provide better mobility to the transit dependent

• stimulate mode shift away from the SOV

• free roadway capacity in I-5 corridor

Page 234: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

• increase physical activity, reduce health care costs of those switching from automobile to transit

• shift personal expenditures made for SOV use with a low economic multiplier to higher multiplier uses

• reduce GHG emissions

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

SafetyBenefits -

• Transit has about 1/10 the fatality rate of automobile travel. So shifting users from automobile to transit is a net safety benefit

• Lower levels of pollution and GHG emissions imply reduced health risk

• Generally using transit results in more walking than driving does; more physically active people are healthier than less active people

• Lower congestion levels imply lower crash rates Benefits All Modes –

• Switching road users from SOV use to transit results in more available road capacity, benefiting all other roadway users (freight, transit, personal vehicle, etc.)

It was also recently unanimously approved for inclusion in the Regional Transportation Plan.

Page 236: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

The objective of CBOS was to develop low cost, highly effective, and immediate solutions to improve safety and operations of this recurring bottleneck and others identified in the region. The study determined that congestion occurs on average for a three hour period between 3:00 and 6:00 PM daily and that travel speeds can drop to 20 mph during this time. The congestion begins at the Stark/Washington St. entrance-ramp and Hwy 26/Division St./Powell Blvd. exit ramp. The contributing factors to the congestion are the high volumes from I-84 EB merging with I-205 SB mainline traffic. Conflicts between entrance-ramps create turbulence at merge points with the mainline, and difficult weaving movements. Constructing the project will help manage growing demand and congestion to minimize any increase delay, costs and uncertainty for businesses that rely on this corridor for freight movement. Freight traffic comprised approximately 8% or 6,500 trucks of the annual daily traffic on I-205 SB in the area. The travel time savings based on speed and delay is estimated at $1.36 million annual for freight and auto users. The project also facilitates economic development by improving access to commercial centers and medical facilities, such as the Portland Adventist Medical Center Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

Between 2007 and 2011, 112 crashes occurred at the project location. The construction of the auxiliary lane is anticipated to reduce mainline crashes by 30% based on comparable auxiliary lane improvements. Such a reduction would benefit over 96,000 annual users.

Widening US:26 to three lanes in each direction between 185th and Cornelius Pass Road is consistent with Metro’s 2035 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP) (Project # 10873) and the City of Hillsboro’s Transportation System Plan (TSP). This project is consistent with OTP Strategy 1.1.4 in that it (1) manages the existing transportation system effectively by allowing US 26 to continue to operate as a main mobility corridor; and (2) adds capacity to the existing transportation system with the widening. It is also consistent with OHP Major Improvements Policy Action 1.G.1 in that it adds capacity to the existing system (priority 3) to allow for the continual efficient operation of US 26.

In addition to the $2m recommended by Region 1 Project Selection Committee for design, Region 1 recommends an additional $14.5m of State enhance discretionary funding be made available for construction, contingent on the transfer of sufficient JTA, or other local funds, to complete construction. The City of Hillsboro and Washington County support making uncommitted JTA funding in the US:26 corridor available to leverage with STIP funds to complete the $25m-30m improvement.

Page 244: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Sunset Highway is an important route that serves residents, commuters, businesses, tourists, and freight linking the “economic engine” of Washington County to the world marketplace. With the growth of the surrounding residential and employment areas, this portion of US-26 is expected to carry close to 120,000 vehicles per day (within the current Urban Growth Boundary). Westbound widening, in conjunction with arterial widening improvements, would facilitate the safe and efficient flow of morning commute traffic off of the freeway to employment in north Hillsboro. Eastbound widening would improve freight mobility for Silicon Forest industries and agricultural, timber, and tourism industries of northwest Oregon.

It is estimated that the high-tech cluster, anchored in the Silicon Forest by Intel, accounts for approximately 65% of Oregon’s trade sector revenue. The Intel Ronler Acres campus will support approximately 15,000 to 16,000 jobs when the proposed expansions are complete. EcoNorthwest has estimated that every Intel job in Oregon creates approximately three additional jobs elsewhere in the state.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

Widening US-26 from Cornelius Pass Road to NW 185th Avenue would improve safety on the Sunset Highway in several ways, which include:

1.) Providing relief of westbound bottleneck. The existing third through lane currently ends at the 185th Avenue interchange. Traffic volume destined to Cornelius Pass Road is high and is projected to increase. The lane reduction at 185th Avenue creates a bottleneck in traffic and congestion that can lead to increased accidents. Extending the lane to the Cornelius Pass Interchange would reduce lane changes at the 185th Avenue exit ramp and mitigate potential congestion related accidents.

2.) Improving the roadway. The project would provide vehicle breakdown shoulders for both the inside and outside lanes. By widening the shoulders emergency responders will experience reduced travel times to and from incidents.

3.) Improving lane balance. The proposed lane extensions would be made in conjunction with westbound exit ramp improvements at the Cornelius Pass Road Interchange, which is occurring as part of the Intel development. The additional lane would balance lane requirements to utilize the two westbound exits. Balancing the lane would smooth out traffic weaving maneuvers and reduce the number of conflicting vehicle movements on the highway.

4.) Improving mobility. An additional lane would reduce vehicle densities on a highly congested segment of the highway. Decreasing vehicle densities would minimize accident potential by reducing conflict and speed differential. Improved mobility would make the system more reliable and improve transit times in the corridor.

The project concept was developed in an ODOT Facility Plan prepared for this corridor segment. An Environmental Assessment (EA) addressing a variety of improvements along this corridor segment is also close to completion and the remaining planning activities (IAMP and verification of project consistency with the local TSP) would be fairly simple. The project is consistent with the recently adopted Albany TSP. The IAMP will also be consistent with the TSP. There will be no need for a plan amendment. The project is also consistent with the Area 4 ACT priorities. Linn County has indicated they are willing to provide up to $1,000,000 in support of the project.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

I-5 is by far the most important highway in the state of Oregon and along the west coast of the U.S., both in terms of passenger and freight movement. It is the primary travel facility from Mexico to Canada. Reducing congestion and increasing safety along this segment of I-5 will contribute to lowered travel costs and improved flow of intra- and interstate commerce.

Page 246: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

This four lane section of I-5 has had few changes to its configuration from its original design in the 1960’s. Consequently, there are numerous sub-standard features throughout the segment including partial interchanges, inadequate ramp design and inadequate interchange spacing. The configurations are important since the segments are currently experiencing traffic volumes much higher than they were designed to accommodate.

The OR99E (North Albany/Knox Butte) Interchange is a combined hybrid “Y”/diamond interchange with only 3 of the four movements provided at Exit 234. The interchange design features two southbound off-ramps, one each for eastbound and westbound Pacific Boulevard (OR99E). However, there is no southbound on-ramp provided at this intersection. Southbound traffic from Pacific Boulevard is routed down Airport Road (a frontage road that also provides access to neighborhoods and businesses) to the US 20 interchange intersection. Northbound movements are handled through a one free-flow ramp from Pacific Boulevard northbound and through a diamond style slip ramp for the off-ramp movement.

The purpose of this project is to add a new southbound on-ramp, remove the southerly southbound off-ramp (234A), provide an auxiliary lane/collector-distributor (C-D) road to improve entering and exiting the freeway, and remove southbound freeway trips (from Pacific Boulevard) from the frontage road between the Knox Butte and Santiam interchanges. This package of improvements provides a variety of benefits. It removes trips from the Santiam Highway interchange, improving both safety and operations at that location. It eliminates the need for drivers to determine which southbound exit they need to use to access Pacific Boulevard. It reduces out of direction travel for all vehicles. It will also standardize the southbound freeway movements at Exit 234 and reduce speed differential conflicts for vehicle exiting or entering freeway traffic. In short, this project benefits the freeway system and its users by eliminating sub-standard freeway design elements and better meeting driver expectations.

Specifically, a review of the 5-year crash history in this segment of I-5 showed 42% of crashes were rear-enders and 19% were sideswipe overtaking. The rear end and sideswipe overtaking crashes are typical of a multi-lane section that is operating at or close to capacity. The improvements in traffic flows that will result from this project should help reduce the rear-end crashes, while better definition of freeway access points and addition of an auxiliary lane/C-D road (which will allow merging and diverging speed differentials to resolve in a non-through lane) should reduce side-swipe crashes. The addition of the southbound on-ramp should improve the safety and operations by removing the second off-ramp (eliminating a confusing driver choice) and replacing it with an on-ramp that enables the interchange to better meet driver expectations. This change also eliminates statewide and regional traffic conflicts with local businesses and neighborhoods (particularly truck freight and non-local passenger vehicle conflict with local traffic, including bicyclists and pedestrians).

funding would be used to develop shelf documents (IAMP and EA) to position the interchange for a future funding package. Because there are several trucking service businesses in the vicinity of this interchange, it is a major stopping point for hundreds of long-distance truck freight vehicles every day.

This project is partially funded through the OTC approval of the Mid-Willamette Valley ACT (MWACT) and Region 2 Enhance 100% recommendation in October 2013. The already approved Enhance funding is expected to support updating previously approved EA information and preliminary design efforts. Approval of this additional funding request would restore full funding to the original Enhance request and support strategic ROW acquisition for the eventual construction of a variety of improvements to OR 18 through the Fort Hill/Grande Ronde area. This project is fully supported by MWACT, is consistent with the Polk County Transportation System Plan (TSP), and has an approved Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for an Environmental Assessment (EA) completed in 2003. As noted above, part of this project activity (with the Enhance funding already approved) would be to update the data and assumptions in that previous FHWA approval and validate the previous project recommendations.

Page 250: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

This project is a continuation of a previous STIP project (Key #14291, OR18: Fort Hill – Wallace Bridge) which was constructed as Phase 1 of the EA and widened OR18/22 from two to four lanes from Fort Hill to the Wallace bridge and constructed the Fort Hill Interchange. Construction of Phase 1 was completed in 2010 with no budget remaining. Phase 2 is the identified next step to improve safety and mobility of this vital link between the Willamette Valley and the central Oregon Coast.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

When constructed, the project elements identified in the approved EA will improve traffic flow and safety for all modes within this segment of the OR 18 corridor. The recurring congestion on OR 18, the extended traffic delays that occur when crashes take place on the two-lane highway segments, and the lack of adequate bicycle and pedestrian facilities, are all impediments to economic activity between the Willamette Valley and the Oregon Coast and also within the Grande Ronde area. The eventual construction of these improvements will benefit all types of coastal commerce and tourism by increasing the safety and reliability of travel within this segment of the OR 18 corridor.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

OR 18 is a statewide expressway and freight route, a lifeline route, and a primary coastal feeder route that experiences significant congestion in the summer months, along with numerous safety problems, including inadequate intersection design, inadequate bicycle facilities, and a lack of pedestrian facilities. Left turning movements in this section are increasingly difficult and have a higher accident severity. There have been significant cross over and rear end collisions. Highway freight traffic is seeking alternate non-highway routes on unsafe and inadequate local roads to avoid congestion and safety issues at the Valley Junction at grade intersection. Development in the Grand Ronde area and the attraction of the Oregon Coast is drawing more alternate modes of transportation creating the need for better pedestrian and bicycle facilities attached to the highway. The proposed project elements for eventual construction will include widening the existing two lane highway and extending the four lane section from Fort Hill past the Valley Junction (OR 22) intersection. A grade separated interchange will be constructed to replace the existing intersection at Valley Junction (OR 22). Two bridges over South Yamhill River will also be replaced and widened. Median barrier improvements will be installed to prevent crossover accidents in multiple locations. Polk County’s Rowell Creek Road, the Spirit Mountain Casino, and other private property access will be modified to support the proposed highway improvements. While area residents will enjoy an better operating and safer transportation system, when constructed, this project will ultimately benefit mostly statewide and regional travelers by providing a safer and more reliable travel experience for freight and passenger vehicles, and well as for bicyclists and pedestrians traveling to or through this segment of the OR 18 corridor.

The corridor plan objective A5.1 for waterborne transportation indicates that ferry service should be maintained between Cathlamet and Westport.

The Westport Corridor and Community Plan is an economic and development plan that identifies multiple development and infrastructure improvement projects in Westport, Oregon. The new ferry access road construction is listed as one of the priority projects identified by Clatsop County and the Community of Westport.

Implementing this project will require some additional planning and coordination with state agencies and other partners. Clatsop County will apply for grant of access with ODOT for the proposed access of US 30. Once the grant of access is approved, the county will purchase access rights based on an ODOT assessment of the increased value of the properties served by the proposed access location. The property used for the new collector roadway will be an in-kind contribution from Teevin Bros. in Westport. The county will work with Teevin Bros. to complete this transaction. Clatsop County and their consultants will work with ODOT Rail regarding the new at-grade rail crossing and the potential closing of the existing at-grade rail crossing on Westport Ferry Road. Additional wetland and environmental mitigation planning will also be required.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

The Westport Ferry is one of three connections between the two statewide significant highways (US 30 and SR 4) that parallel the Columbia River between Portland and Astoria. The proposed new collector road would serve a variety of economic purposes. It would facilitate economic/industrial development by providing better access to industrial lands between the Ferry and US 30. It would support bi-state commerce by providing a route that is geometrically and structurally adequate for heavy trucks and freight vehicles between the Ferry and US 30. It would provide better access to recreation opportunities adjacent to the Ferry (a new public park is currently being developed adjacent to the Ferry), and it would improve the safe and efficient operation of US 30 through the construction of an improved intersection at US 30 and the new Ferry Road alignment.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

In addition to improving access to the Westport Ferry and the associates economic development benefits, this project would provide a variety of safety benefits including improved local road intersections with US 30 (reduced traffic at the existing access road locations and better access – with left and right turn lanes – at the proposed new access road. This project would also serve and improve safety for other modes, including bike and pedestrian, through providing a cross-section with appropriate bicycle facilities on the proposed new access road and by eliminating existing heavy truck conflicts within the neighborhood through which the existing Ferry access route runs. The existing route is narrow (between neighborhood homes and Plympton Creek and cannot practically be widened), does not provide for safe bicycle or pedestrian travel, and is prone to seasonal flooding. The new road would be engineered to eliminate the possibility of flooding in all but the most extreme circumstances. Maintaining Ferry access is often most critical during extreme weather events.

Work has been ongoing for many years in search of a solution to a chronic slide area on US 101 just north of Newport. This project would update previous environmental documentation and provide for a comprehensive geologic assessment of the slide and surrounding area.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

US Highway 101 is the principle roadway along the Oregon Coast. It serves as the major economic and emergency lifeline for all coastal communities. Supporting freight, tourism, recreation such as the adjacent Beverly Beach State Park and commerce of all kinds, US 101 also serves as Main Street for nearly every coastal community. If US 101 were to fail in this location, it would disrupt all manner of freight and commerce north and south of the slide area and significantly affect travel patterns back into the Willamette Valley. The economic consequences of a long-term failure that cut-off north-south travel on US 101 would be severe in terms of fuel cost and emissions from out of direction travel, costs to business in shipping and receiving goods, impacts to tourism, and inconvenience to local residents.

Page 258: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

This project could help better determine the necessary geotechnical solutions to a chronic slide problem on US 101 and address the question about what approach is really practicable with respect to the extremely high cost (financial and environmental) of attempting to relocate US 101 inland versus addressing continuing erosion in order to implement a long-term repair to the slide and keep US 101 in its current location. Either way, agreeing to a method and providing an accurate cost to keep US 101 open to north-south travel and is implementable will benefit all modes of travel by ensuring that it does not become necessary for users to take trips that go a couple of hundred miles out of direction.

Page 260: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

I-5 is the West Coast's major trade corridor and one of the top freight routes in the nation. Some of the steepest grades anywhere in the nation are on I-5 in southern Oregon. According to the FHWA’s 2005 freight bottleneck report, five of the top 25 steep-grade truck bottlenecks on the nation's freeways (including Roberts Mountain) are located on this section of I-5. These five steep grades together cause nearly 1.3 million annual hours of delay for trucks. These steep grades slow trucks significantly, often to under 30 miles per hour, slowing other vehicles that can’t get around. The speed differential between trucks passing and passenger vehicles also causes significant safety problems.

The Oregon Office of Economic Analysis estimates that Oregon is the ninth most trade-dependent state in the nation. With truck traffic anticipated to rise substantially in the future, roadway congestion issues, transport reliability and road access issues will be exacerbated. Improving congestion on Southern Oregon’s worst steep grade passes on I-5 will result in faster travel times for all freight travelling throughout the Oregon to Canada and Mexico. This will allow freight to move more efficiently to ports and airports improving commerce and keeping the economy moving.

Improving Southern Oregon Truck Climbing Lanes will meet the purpose of the Oregon Freight Plan to “improve freight connections to local, state, regional, national and global markets in order to increase trade-related jobs and income for Oregon workers and businesses.”

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

The proposed construction and development project will improve safety and mobility on segments of I-5 for all motorists. Freight traffic, transit providers, and non-freight traffic will benefit from designated climbing lanes. The project will improve safety by planning for and constructing climbing lanes to allow trucks to avoid slowing in the primary travel lanes, thereby reducing the likelihood of mainline congestion and rear-end crashes. These locations have crash rates much higher than the statewide average because faster-moving vehicles frequently run into slow-moving trucks and other passenger vehicles slowed by trucks.

Trucks have long used the I-5 shoulders, designed to provide a safe refuge for disabled vehicles, to navigate southern Oregon’s mountain passes. Trucks using the shoulder cause significant pavement damage which requires frequent repair. Designated truck climbing lanes will improve safety by allowing vehicles to use the shoulder in case of emergency, as it is intended.

The I-5 Rogue Valley Corridor Plan, adopted by the Oregon Transportation Commission as an amendment to the Oregon Highway Plan in June 2012, recommended additional study and analysis of the Medford Viaduct (Viaduct). The Plan identified possible solutions including: enhanced local arterial/collector connections, expansion, stacking the opposing lanes of traffic, and safety enhancements to increase the function, safety, and capacity. More than 50 years of residential and commercial growth has developed next to Interstate 5 (I-5), creating environmental challenges and expensive right of way costs. The Rogue Valley ACT supports the Environmental Study as the Region’s highest priority for the 20% Enhance funding. The South West ACT supports the request for enhance funds for the study. Discussions with the City of Medford indicate that it will be a partner in the study, with ODOT as lead

Page 262: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

agency. An article published in the September issue of ‘Moving Ahead with ODOT’ on the Viaduct to develop a 20-year plan has been well received by the public, and many citizens have requested to be a part of any study.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

The Viaduct is a 3,229 four lane bridge located on I-5 between two major exits – the south Medford interchange at exit 27 and the north Medford interchange at exit 30. I-5 is the primary economic corridor on the West Coast and supports the flow of people and goods across Washington, Oregon, and California. It serves as the primary economic link for the Rogue Valley. The Viaduct is a vital link for not only Medford city residents, but also interstate travelers. Improvements to the Viaduct would have positive economic benefits to all commercial and industrial activities and support recent investments along the I-5 corridor.

The Oregon Transportation Commission has approved numerous construction projects in and around the Rogue Valley, including: the OTIA I, II and III Bridge Delivery Projects, Oregon 62 Expressway, ConnectOregon grants to the Rogue Valley International airport and Combined Transport/Blackwell Trucking railroad switchyard, and north and south Medford interchanges. Once the Oregon 62 Expressway is completed, the Medford area will have more than a quarter of a billion dollars of new transportation investment in a little more than a decade.

All of those improvements rely on a safe and efficient I-5 and Viaduct. Given the high project costs associated with any Viaduct project, it is imperative to look at improvements that optimize public dollars. An environmental study of the Viaduct is vital to protect transportation investments and plan for the future of the Viaduct and its vital role in the economy of the Rogue Valley, Oregon and the U.S. A project completed in 2003 rehabilitated the deck, provided scour protection of the vertical supports in Bear Creek and added a Phase 1 seismic retro-fit so that the Viaduct could better withstand an earthquake. At that time, it was calculated that the economic delay to narrow the interstate to one lane in each direction was roughly $60,000 per day; however, this did not factor in the disruptive cost to the community.

An Environmental Study of the Viaduct is critical to identify improvements that would continue to support investments into the Region and I-5 throughout Oregon. Each of these projects improve safety, reduced congestion and provide the transportation infrastructure that is vital for freight, mobility, job growth, and commerce, and livability.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

The proposed environmental study will examine safety and mobility of all modes of transportation, and identify cost-effective and environmentally-sensitive solutions. As noted above, the Medford Viaduct is the primary economic corridor for the Rogue Valley and West Coast.

The Medford Viaduct passes over approximately one-half mile of the City of Medford. The Medford Viaduct is located adjacent to downtown Medford, Hawthorne Park, Bear Creek and the Bear Creek Greenway. The Bear Creek Greenway is a bicycle and pedestrian pathway running from the City of

Page 263: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Ashland to the City of Central Point, with plans to ultimately link it to the Rogue River Greenway and Grants Pass nearly 30 miles north.

The Medford Viaduct is used by transit providers, is approximately one mile southwest of the Rogue Valley International Airport, and provides a freight link from industries in the southern Rogue Valley to the railroad switchyard in the northern Rogue Valley.

Any eventual improvements and/or replacement of the Medford Viaduct will necessarily require consideration of the safety and mobility needs of auto, freight, bicycle, pedestrian and transit. In addition, such a project would also have a significant effect on Interstate 5 traffic and north-south connectivity in Rogue Valley.

The project has been identified in the OR 140 Corridor Plan: I-5 Exit 35 to Brownsboro-Eagle Point Road (Plan). The Plan was recently adopted as part of the Oregon Highway Plan. The Rogue Valley ACT selected a phase of OR 140 as (Exit 35 to Blackwell) an Enhance Project and support improvements to rest of OR 140.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

The project will benefit and encourage economic vitality in the Rogue Valley by enhancing the connection between I-5 and OR 62. The project provides a low cost improvement to an alternative freight route between OR 62 and I-5. OR 140 is regularly used as an alternative means for traffic, especially freight from the White City industrial area to I-5. These improvements may provide the facilities needed for future development of the Tolo industrial Area. The area has been identified as an

Page 265: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

Urban Reserve in the 2011 Greater Bear Creek Valley Regional Plan. This would include 544 acres of employment lands.

The Oregon Office of Economic Analysis estimates that Oregon is the ninth most trade-dependent state in the nation. With truck traffic anticipated to rise substantially in the future, roadway congestion issues, transport reliability and road access issues will be exacerbated. Improving OR 140 will meet the purpose of the Oregon Freight Plan to “improve freight connections to local, state, regional, national and global markets in order to increase trade-related jobs and income for Oregon workers and businesses.”

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

The proposed project will improve safety on OR 140 by resolving geometric deficiencies, providing protected turn-lanes, widening shoulders, and widening lanes. These improvements will likely result in fewer conflicts and crashes.

The project will benefit all modes of transportation by providing the opportunity to connect bicycle and pedestrian facilities with the Bear Creek Greenway Trail located near OR 14 and Blackwell Rd. OR-140 is regularly used for aggregate trucks and other freight, school buses, and local commuters. Transit route stops could be added to highway to better serve the industrial facilities. Modal connections would be improved to The Central Oregon and Pacific Railroad and the White City Terminal and Utility Railway Company adjacent to the project. A truck/rail intermodal facility constructed with ConnectOregon funds is also adjacent to the project.

Additionally, it will improve the reliability of travel times on this segment.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

Here is an example of a priority segment to address for this D-STIP project: There have been a number of head-on crashes in this area. There is a top 15% SPIS site at MP 127.1 to 127.2 and a top

Page 267: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

20% site at MP 127.9 to 128.1 and MP 128.4 to 128.7 (Gift Rd) and MP 128.9 to 129.1 is also a SPIS site. An analysis of the 2000-2002 crash record between milepoints 127.0 and 130.1 indicates 36 crashes four of which occurred at the intersection of US 97 and Gift Road. 25% of crashes involved head on collisions in the project limits. Some of the head-ons may be alleviated by the centerline rumble strip being installed on the Wickiup-Bowery Lane Project (2003).

So as commuter traffic continues to grow between Bend and Redmond and recreational traffic in Central Oregon increases, limiting full movement crossings of US 97 will increase the safety of the highway. Extending the median barrier north from the Deschutes Market Road Interchange, and providing access to this area would be provided by the interchange. Installation of the median barrier will also reduce head-on crashes.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

This project helps locally and regionally for interstate and intrastate traffic (US97 is a multi-state freight corridor). Upon 2015 completion of the JTA US 97/Murphy Road project, the Powers Road intersection will including the last remaining US 97 signal on the south half of the Bend Parkway, and this project will allow removal of the signal. This section of the Parkway is considered one of the “bottleneck” points identified as a priority to address in the TRIP97 partnership effort (La Pine, Bend, Redmond, Madras, Deschutes County, Crook County, Bend MPO, ODOT).

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

This project provides a vital connection of US 97 to O’Neil Hwy. It will provide a connection of the US 97 freight route with the BNSF and City of Prineville railways, increasing statewide opportunities for freight mobility via central Oregon.

Located on a freight route or part of the National Highway System (NHS) x

This project is adjacent to US 97 and connects US 97 to a railway truck to train loading facility.

Has the appropriate planning work been completed and the proposed project been vetted as a priority, provide a description of those efforts:

Project is currently in development and planning, and is including in the Central Oregon Rail Plan, and the additional funding would get a “Phase 1” to PS&E by 2015. The project has been vetted as a top priority by the Central Oregon Area Commission on Transportation.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

O’Neil Highway is also the primary roadway link to the BNSF/COPR rail yard facility at Prineville Junction. The City of Prineville recently expanded this rail yard with ConnectOregon III funding and has future plans to improve the railyard by constructing a state of the art bulk transfer facility consisting of storage tracks, pumps, washouts, conveyors and storage areas. This facility could handle both liquid and dry bulk material. Funds have yet to be identified for this expansion.

Page 275: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

COPR is pursuing these plans to provide the three-county (Deschutes, Jefferson, and Crook) area of Central Oregon with the necessary multimodal transportation infrastructure to sustain current industries and attract and support new industry. It will provide a wide-ranging boost for the Central Oregon region’s economic well-being, where creating and sustaining jobs is the primary goal. Central Oregon is fortunate to have the COPR short line railroad with access to both the BNSF and Union Pacific railways. This type of setup is exceedingly rare and desirable from a competitive standpoint. It provides the region an excellent opportunity to gain access to these railways and national and international markets. The O’Neil Highway improvements specifically will help support safe and efficient freight access to the expanding rail yard from US 97 via the interchange on the north end of Redmond. This is fitting with the Central Oregon Rail Plan, which states: “Focus decision-making and funding priorities (for at-grade crossing improvements) on multi-stakeholder benefits, beyond public safety and roadway traffic congestion, such as: rail freight mobility and industrial business recruitment (rail-served), short and long term issues with freight trucking (e.g., fuel costs, roadway impacts), rail operational needs, etc.”

O’Neil Highway is one of Central Oregon’s major aggregate haul routes from large multiple quarries in Crook County, which are important to the regional economy. The length restrictions have forced long loads (over 52 feet) to use Smith Rock Way as the alternate route for access to US 97, resulting in economic impacts (to trucking and tourism), recreation (e.g., Smith Rock State Park), and safety along Smith Rock Way. Smith Rock Way is a narrow County road and was not intended to accommodate the weight and volumes of trucks now using it and 17th Street to reach destinations in Redmond. Also in Terrebonne, truck access to and from US 97 is a safety hazard, as long, slow-moving trucks attempt to turn onto the highway, they often swing across multiple lanes. These same sharp curves along the route also pose a challenge to the traveling public.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

This project improves the safety on US 97 and the O’Neil highway by eliminating the at-grade connection of the O’Neil Highway with US 97 and eliminating 6 at-grade highway/ rail crossings.

A regional rail planning effort was completed for Central Oregon in 2009, with primary focus on resolving public at-grade railroad crossing safety and congestion issues. The BNSF railway runs north-south through Madras, Redmond, and Bend. With the rising volumes of rail traffic and the expanding lengths of trains coupled with a limited number of bridge crossings, the BNSF railway has effectively become a barrier to east-west travel for motor vehicles, bicyclists and pedestrians. This combination of increasing rail and roadway traffic poses an increase in safety hazards for at-grade crossings. Central Oregon jurisdictions have made improvements at Prineville Junction among the highest priorities for a grade-separated crossing. The ranking for future grade-separated crossings was based on a series of considerations including safety, emergency services, traffic congestion, economic opportunities, local jurisdiction priorities, railway company needs, land use / environmental, road

Page 276: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

classification, cost, and phasing / financing. This project is a high priority because: 1) it eliminates two multi-line at-grade crossings with O’Neil Highway (safety), 2) it resolves a freight truck length restriction for one of the most important aggregate haul routes in Central Oregon, 3) it re-orients the aggregate haul route from O’Neil Highway to the new interchange at the north end of the US 97 Redmond Reroute, replacing an at-grade intersection with a grade-separated interchange making a much safer access to a high-speed rural highway, and 4) it matches well with the expansion of the BNSF/COPR rail interchange for increased rail and multi-modal freight service. The project will also benefit emergency services, reduce delay on the O’Neil Highway, and improve access to both the BNSF and COPR

There is a history of crashes at the intersection of O’Neil Highway and US97 with many resulting in severe injuries. The current intersection of the O’Neil Highway and US97 allows movements in all directions. US 97 is five lanes wide at this location, and there are large volumes of traffic flowing at high speeds. Use of this intersection will increase over time as the City of Redmond implements their TSP to utilize this intersection. This project will eliminate this safety problem.

Describe how the benefits of the proposed project, primarily an assessment of economic benefits, go beyond the area in which it is located:

Variable speed zones on US97 will reduce crash frequency and severity and improve operations during other traffic events. Both of these will result in fewer system delays and highway closures which in turn will improve the efficiency of the highway.

Describe how the proposed project benefits safety and all modes of transportation:

This proposed variable speed zone is in response to a high roadway departure crash rate during inclement driving conditions and will reduce crash frequency and severity and improve roadway operations in these conditions and during other roadway events. The variable speed limit system will also provide improved travel time information as well as enhance traveler information travel time reliability.

There will be significant benefit to freight haulers.

*Because the project covers two segments, the Bend-La Pine segment is the higher priority and can be delivered for $2,800,000, if the project needs to be divided into phases.

History of Minimum Base

• Administrative rule sets a biennial minimum of $30,000, and the law and rule allow OTC to increase.

• Historically, OTC has increased the minimum when additional funds were made available.

• The current biennial minimum is $110,000.

• 16 counties and all nine federally-recognized tribes currently receive a minimum allocation.

2013-2015 Options Explored

A. Allocate all funds by population, increase minimum base by $30,000 ($15,000 per year). The biennial result is $30,000 for smallest entity to $1.9M largest entity.

B. Allocate 75 percent of funds by population, increase minimum base by $30,000 ($15,000 per year). Biennial result is approximately $600,000 discretionary funds; an allocation is $30,000 for smallest entity and $1.6M largest entity.

C. Allocate all by population, with no additional base. Biennial result is $240 for smallest to $2.2M largest.

     Workshop Item 2 

2015­2018 STIP Enhance Process Evaluation Results  The Commission received an informational presentation from the Oregon Department of Transportation and JLA Public Involvement regarding the results of the 2015‐2018 Statewide Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) Enhance process evaluation. Each of the region managers spoke afterward to provide information on their specific region's 100‐percent list, egion potential use of 20‐percent funds, and additional regional transportation needs.  Background materials in Director/Commission/History Center File, Salem.) r( Background: The Oregon Transportation Commission approved the new Enhance process for the selection of 2015­2018 STIP projects in order to allow for a more flexible process that ensures a holistic approach to financing the transportation system. This process also aims to help the department meet important multimodal and intermodal goals.   In preparation for the 2017­2020 STIP, the department engaged in an evaluation process on how the Enhance process worked for STIP participants, including both applicants and reviewers. The department worked with JLA Public Involvement to conduct an online survey and targeted interviews. JLA Public Involvement outlined the overall results of the survey and targeted interviews in an executive summary, and prepared summaries of the interviews and survey results  The 2015­2018 STIP Enhance process evaluation highlighted five issue areas that merit further discussion prior to pursuing specific modifications and improvements as part of the next STIP cycle. The five issue areas, with potential department activities, include:   

Training: Although generally content with the information provided by the department staff, the results of the surveys and interviews show that both applicants and reviewers desire more guidance and technical assistance to help prepare and review applications. Therefore, the department should explore ways to assist applicants and reviewers more effectively through additional outreach or technical assistance opportunities.   Process: In terms of process improvements, some recommendations to consider include the development of a preapplication or the issuance of a notice of intent. In addition, the results of the evaluation show that the role of the Oregon Freight Advisory Committee and the joint Oregon Bicycle and Pedestrian and Transportation Enhancement Committees requires modification to ensure the productive involvement of these committees. Lastly, the surveys and interviews highlighted the regional differences in the application review process. The department should explore this issue further and identify where flexibility is warranted, and consistency is needed.  Clarifying Key Terms: Due to confusion over terminology, the department should also consider defining key terms used in the Enhance process. This may include outlining the differences between projects of statewide, regional, and local importance.

 Criteria: Comments related to criteria varied widely. However, many applicants and reviewers felt that some type of criteria, whether in the form of specific priorities or general guidance, helps ensure transparency and provide structure. Despite the wide range of responses related to criteria, it is evident that the department should explore ways to address the issue of criteria.     Timing: Although the amount of time provided to complete the Enhance application seemed appropriate, the evaluation results suggest that reviewers may benefit from some additional time. The department should consider ways to facilitate the review process better by providing additional time, more resources, and/or more guidance to those involved in the review process.   

 Based on the evaluation results, the department proposes to work with the staff and the STIP Stakeholder Committee to pursue the five issue areas further. As the Commission is aware, the STIP Stakeholder Committee plays an integral role in improving the STIP process to make it more transparent and accessible to stakeholders. The department proposes to engage the STIP Stakeholder Committee this fall and anticipates a six­to­eight month process to address the issue areas comprehensively in order to improve the next STIP cycle.  Presentation: Transportation Development Division Administrator Jerri Bohard introduced Jeanne Lawson and Sylv of the 2015

funding sources.  Commissioner Lohman said the line between public involvement and local decision making is evolving, and this has been a big step in starting to define that line.  A lot of work is still needed, but he noted he was surprised at the extent to which local people did recognize there

are statewide needs and considered that even if they ultimately chose a local project.  He appreciates that perspective.  In regard to criteria, there are a lot of different perspectives, and he agrees with the thought that there is so little money, it doesn’t make sense to talk about criteria.  However, one comment he did find interesting, was that it would be helpful if there were criteria for each mode.  He said scoping was a definite issue, because, while the ACTs are expected to be somewhat off because the process is new to them, ODOT was even off on some of its pricing, so costs on the final list went way up.    Commissioner Frohnmayer said if we look at this from a problem‐solving basis, and aximizing the limited dollars we have today, we’ve got to start looking at potential problem m

fixes before getting into a list of projects.  Paul Mather set the stage for the 100‐percent list discussion by saying the region managers were asked to talk briefly on three topics; how the 100‐percent list turned out, where they are utting the 20‐percent recommendation together, and discuss what major needs never got on he table. pt Region 1 – Jason Tell The Region 1 STIP committee finalized its 100‐percent list with the unanimous support of the entire group.  The most significant change resulting from the new process is that about half of he money is going to local projects, a shift from past emphasis toward state projects or local tprojects that have a benefit to the state system.    Region 1 staff received praise for the intensive work done with local government staff on scoping.  Because there were no criteria around readiness in the new process, there were a lot of applications submitted that were actually concepts.  This is an issue that hadn’t occurred in the past, and there’s going to be a higher level of risk going forward when scoping a project that is really a rough concept.  Another issue was determining where regional projects and projects of statewide interest fit in.  Jason Tell pushed back on the idea that you can’t pick statewide significant projects if the program size is very small, by giving the past example of the Wilsonville Interchange/I‐5 project which took about a quarter of the whole pot for that ne project.  It had a lot of economic development benefits to the local jurisdiction, but also obenefited the state system as well.   In regard to major needs that were not considered, Jason Tell said Region 1 still has the  ‐5 Rose Quarter project, the Sunrise Corridor on the east side, the I‐205 Corridor, the Historic olumbia River Highway, and orphan highways. IC

 Region 2 ­ Sonny Chickering  Scoping was an issue with local entities, and while they didn’t have the experience of errors in estimates by ODOT, there were surprises.   Three of the four ACTs took applications back to the applicants to look at the original request and decide if they could cover the additional costs, find the additional match money, or phase the project.  ODOT staff helped influence the conversation by providing a straw proposal to the super‐ACT members which, they believe held true to the intent and desires of the list received from the ACTs, while filtering it through

the lens of regional and statewide significance.  Ninety percent of the final proposal was taken from the straw proposal.  Region 2 made it clear that ODOT was just another applicant for the money, with no more consideration given for its projects than given to local projects.  The results show that of the 39 rojects on the final 100‐percent list, 50 percent of those were applied for by local agencies, pbut were actually projects on the state system, and account for 63 percent of the dollars.     Region 2 is considering two strategies for the potential use of the 20‐percent funds.  One thing that was very apparent in the 100‐percent list was that only two of the final 39 projects exceeded $3 million, making Region 2 a poster‐child for small projects.  One preference would be for the OTC to consider allocating the 20‐percent dollars to the larger projects in the $10‐20 million range rather than putting more in these smaller projects, which are adequately represented at this point.  One of the proposals staff is presenting to the ACTs is a “go big or go home” method of nominating one or two significant projects to be financed.  If feedback from the ACTs is negative, or there isn’t a good project that fits that criteria, there are some smaller D‐STIP projects that could be submitted in preparation for the next STIP process.  There are some real needs in the areas of U.S. 101 near Newport, and an I‐5 interchange project.  Region 2 has developed two groupings of needs.  The first is the large projects list ($25‐100 million) that consists of twelve project totaling $585 million.  The other is the mega‐project list (over $100 million) with five projects totaling $2.5 billion.  Region 5 – Monte Grove The two ACTs in the northeast area came together to develop the 150‐percent list.  One ACT was comfortable evaluating projects across the entire region, while the other ACT was uncomfortable rating projects not in its area, which is appearing to be a consistent theme around the state.  We need to continue to encourage ACTs to look more regionally because the roduct is better, and as the groups get closer together and build relationships, that discomfort pand tension will go away.    Subgroups of the two ACTs met and developed the 100‐percent list, which consists of about wo‐thirds local projects, the feeling being that this was the only way those projects would 

. tever get funded, while projects of statewide significance were sure to be funded at some point Scoping was actually a pretty big success in Region 5.  A lot of the projects put forward by the locals did not have a lot of credibility because they were done by people just trying to identify a problem and a solution.  Staff were able to put some validity to those projects and keep them on the table by working with the locals to define the scope so it made sense.  The biggest reason some projects were low in cost in the first place was because 2007 and 2008 estimates ere used, and costs increased by 30 percent going out to 2015.  Even current 2013 estimates w

rise by 15 percent going out to 2016‐17.    The process was very transparent, so there was a lot of buy‐in to the final results.  It would be very difficult at this point to find any kind of political steam in the region to change anything.  Early on, the ACT composition was changed by the addition of transit and bike/ped advocates, which was a little contentious at the time.  However, that proved to be very valuable by the end

of the process because those people had a lot of impact on the projects that were selected.  One of the negative aspects of the process was that it was very fast paced and you had to be active and present, or you would fall behind.   Another was the ACT’s inability to change course once he initial priorities were established, and then the OTC had the conversation about projects of 

. tregional or statewide significance.  That conversation goes on the front end of the process Projects recommended for the 20‐percent funds include the I‐84/U.S. 395 Interchange at endleton, U.S. 395 south of John Day, the Perkins Street project in Pendleton, and starting Psome of the right‐of‐way on U.S. 395/I‐84 project mentioned above.  Region 5 has two larger projects totaling about $50 million on its needs list, I‐82/U.S. 730 port of entry relocation, and climbing lanes up the canyon on the interstate just south of La Grande.  There are about $100 million in other projects on the list for the next ten years.  One of the ain things you will hear from the ACTs in this region is not the need to enhance the system, ut the need to preserve the system.  mb Region 3 – Frank Reading This was not an easy process. The early conversations included projects of regional or statewide significance which did complicate the discussion.  One of the big issues was just the high cost of highway projects.  The competing needs of local jurisdictions are hard on ACT members faced with going back to their councils or boards and saying they voted for a highway project versus a local project.  Also, scoping measurements were off the mark by about 40 percent overall.  A lot of the elements that have to be added as requirements of funding, like contingencies or inflating the cost out to a certain year, really drive the cost up, and the locals don’t consider them.  Staff worked with the ACTs to come to a 100‐percent list and look at some of the things missed in the initial applications, like the substantial geological ssues to be dealt with, or environmental issues that don’t surface without the right people out iin the field.  The region’s intention for the 20‐percent funds would be to put development (D‐STIP) dollars into the Medford viaduct.  This will be a substantial planning endeavor that will require a lot of time and public involvement to determine what type of alternative or fix is needed.  The region will also like to invest some dollars in furthering the climbing lanes for the mountain areas hroughout the region, both construction and development dollars.  Finally, it will ask for 

ge. tfunds for Highway 140 at Exit 135 to do design work for a future funding packa The region’s future funding needs list is substantial, with about $250 million in onmegaprojects (less that $100 million) and two megaprojects (more than $100 million) otaling an additional $250 million. nt

 Region 4 – Bob Bryant Bob Bryant talked about the work the ACTs in the region did to develop the 150‐percent list and then narrow it down to the 100‐percent list.  What the ACTs and ODOT staff saw was that the balance, that went across all modes in the 150‐percent list, began to shift.  Many of the highest priority projects in the 150‐percent list were projects that had been previously programmed in the STIP for gap funding, and that changed the balance in the modes.  The

ACTs applied some discretion in looking at the prioritized list and made some changes, in response to feedback from the OTC on the 100‐percent list.  This brought some projects that were below the line, up into the 100‐percent list and resulted in a 100‐percent list that reflected local needs and lacked the regional significance. All the ACTs recognized, given the common thread that the highest priority for the region is the U.S. 97 corridor, that the outcome f the process lacked in meeting the needs and demands within that corridor and adjusted to omeet some of those needs in the final list.  The ACTs then discussed a strategy on how to optimize all the available funding to achieve their highest priority goals.  This shaped the recommendation for the 20‐percent funds, which is to augment those projects for Highway 97 which would add capacity and improve safety, such as passing lanes.  In addition, move forward any projects on the Transportation System Plan (TSP) would further that same long‐term strategy to separate the north and southbound lanes, where there are significant crossover crashes and high volumes of traffic.  And last, some of the 20‐percent funding could be used for a number of projects on the U.S. 97 Corridor that would benefit from being shelf ready.  Region 4 has a couple of larger D‐STIP projects already dentified on the shelf for Highway 97 and it added the Dallas Transit Center as a nonhighway roject. ip Public Comments:

2017­2020 STIP Process  The Commission participated in a discussion about the development of the 2017‐2020 STIP process. The discussion included whether to continue to use the Fix­It/Enhance process, and

if so, what improvements should be addressed?  (Background materials in Director/Commission/History Center File, Salem.)  Background: The OTC approved the new Fix­It/Enhance process for the selection of 2015­2018 STIP projects in support of the agency’s multimodal and intermodal goals. An earlier agenda item included information on the evaluation of the 2015­2018 STIP, and highlighted potential areas of improvement in the areas of training, process, terminology, criteria and timing of the various steps in the process.  The intent of the agenda item is to get direction from the Commission in how to move forward with preparing for the next STIP cycle. Examples of areas of discussion include:  

Should the OTC continue to use a similar Fix­It/Enhance process for the 2017­2020 STIP?  If yes, what areas should be identified as needing some modifications or changes?  

o Scenario Building ­ Does the Commission want to see another series of potential scenarios based on possible revenues at both the state and federal levels? 

o What type of information does the Commission want to see relative to the Fix­It portion of the STIP, and what are the system goals for bridge, preservation, etc? 

o Training and Communication ­ What should be the expectations of staff with regard to outreach and training for this STIP process? 

o Overall Process ­ For example, should the next STIP consider a Preapplication or Notice of Intent as part of the process? 

o Criteria    What are the overall expectations of the Commission around modifications 

to the existing project benefit language?  The STIP Stakeholder Committee’s (SSC) responsibility in the past has been 

development of criteria. Should that committee help in the development of this work? If so, what might be the main components of a work plan for this committee? 

Additional members have been added to the SSC including bike/ped expertise and public health. Are there additional needs for this committee?   

What role should the modal advisory committees have in this next process? o Timing 

What areas of the process in particular might require more time?  Recognizing that some potential improvements to the process may require 

additional time for development and review, such as the development of criteria and the application submittal, and review process, are there any concerns with the potential that this becomes the 2018­2021 STIP? 

Other influences that effect the process for the next STIP cycle?

 Chair Egan said we need to talk process, but first pause and talk about the types of projects talked about, and the needs that have come out of this process.  They aren’t mutually exclusive, ut if we have input that suggest not all projects have been identified, and we’re talking about bthe process at the same time, we have to recognize that.    Commissioner Lohman said so many comments were made by the ACTs about just wanting to preserve the system they already have, that he wondered if there is enough in the Fix­It category, or if we’ve defined Fix­It broadly enough.  The same thing might apply to IT projects.  In some sense those “operations” issues are really making use of what we have, and not uilding new.  Are the definitions correct, or should we define Fix­It a little broader and put bmore money in there?  Commissioner Baney said she likes the idea of sticking with our agreements.  Local government would welcome as many dollars as possible to fix the local systems, but that doesn’t help with the statewide system.  She suggested setting up something that is not necessarily findings, but that are essentially the percentages, unless you can determine through economic or safety, or some other, that there are added categories that would allow using one pot versus another at a higher percent rate that would be unique to a local area, versus an overall change within definition.  Commissioner Frohnmayer said in any realistic scenario there will still be way more work to do than resources to do them with.  He feels the biggest priority is making sure we are identifying the benefit and cost appropriately as we go in, and putting as much science and discipline as possible behind that.  As we engage the legislative discussion, another component is how to make seismic sexy, or make it something that we absolutely have to tackle as soon as ossible.  Until the issue of key lifeline routes is solved, he will lose sleep every time there is pdiscussion about funding projects, and that’s not the number one priority.    Commissioner Frohnmayer said that from a process perspective, we hit the points of engaging the statewide pieces early in the process so we are informing the local folks who are deliberating before making their project list.  Another part of that, in terms of the scoping and roblem selection, is can we have a lighter‐weight local process, up front, that’s more about pproblem identification and leans more heavily on ODOT for scoping and solution finding?  Commissioner Baney said that during the next funding opportunity, we need to ask if those projects are also being cross‐pollinated by other state agencies to be looked at for IOFs, or usiness Oregon funds, etc.  Are we looking at ways that aren’t necessarily transportation to Bhelp match or leverage those funds to get those projects done faster?  Director Garrett said it is incumbent upon us, as members of the Regional Solutions Team, to artner with our sister agencies to look across all agencies and the various funding streams.  p

We need to sync up and integrate those opportunities.  Chair Egan said next time around there will be more time to work the process.  Even though there is a lot to be critical of, that needs to be changed in the process, he is encouraged and

thinks we did a great job of identifying projects, and because of the scant funds available, really good quality projects.  But, going forward, he doesn’t have the same conclusion as Commissioner Lohman that the legislature won’t be interested in maintenance projects because they aren’t sexy.  It’s on us to make that argument, and make it better than the engineering‐centric conversations of the past.   We need to say specifically that this is what Enhance funds means for that community and this is why this is a good investment for now.  Preservation has got to be in our next legislative package.  Going into the 17‐20 STIP, we have to show that we know our business, and that we know what needs to happen in maintenance and preservation.  Our local government partners have done a great job identifying for us what those benefits are.  We know what the projects of statewide significance are, and if we don’t do them, here are the consequences.  And if we do, here are the benefits.  And lastly, there are opportunities out there, be it ITS or private industry opportunities, and Chair Egan is not onfident that we have all that input to build a really good list.  That’s a harder nut to crack, but cfrom a process standpoint, how we get that engagement has to be on our list.  ommissioners Lohman and Frohnmayer discussed objective ranking or categorizing of Cprojects and criteria.  Paul Mather said the survey shows we have the right process, but it needs refining.  There are some things we need to talk about in our process around how we sequence statewide ACTs.  But we also need to talk about the roles and responsibilities of those different groups.  Right now we are asking the ACTs to do two things simultaneously that they are struggling with.  One is asking them to prioritize the needs, but then also to balance across the modes.  Those two things are difficult for them to do simultaneously.  Some of the prework could be done for he ACTs up front to help with the prioritization question, and then let them focus on what the tbalance is in their community.   Paul Mather said another sequence question for the Commission is around the 20‐percent concept.  The concept is good, but he worries about it being at the back half of the process.  He recommends putting that at the front end, with the understanding that the Commission will ake “X” amount off the top, and then for the rest of the needs it will be very clear there is no tother money coming, so here is what you have for statewide issues and local issues.    Chair Egan said the 20‐percent should be used for D‐STIP or pre‐engineering.  We’ve consistently heard there is a good array of relatively small dollar projects in the 80 percent.  We need to recognize the 2015‐2018 STIP for what it is; it is not an aspirational STIP, it’s a process STIP.  But going forward, we need more money, and we need to make our arguments better.  We need better arguments for maintenance, and prime the pump for what’s next on some of these bigger projects on the D‐STIP.  He asked staff to help develop an option, among he 20‐percent, for pre‐engineering and a D‐STIP.  What’s it going to cost, and give two or three t

     Road Usage Charge Program 

 The Commission received an informational status report on the Road Usage Charge program, and considered approval of a determination, under the authority of ORS 367.804 and OAR 731‐070‐0240, that the transportation project specified herein has the potential to promote nnovative approaches to carrying out the road usage charge system project. (Background aterials in Director/Commission/History Center File, Salem.) 

im Background: ORS 367.804 gives the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) authority through the Oregon Innovative Partnerships Program (OIPP) to solicit concepts or proposals for transportation projects from private entities and units of government. OAR 731­070­0240 allows ODOT to solicit proposals or enter into direct negotiations with a legal entity for a public­private partnership approach, as approved by the Commission. Before ODOT can solicit in this manner, however, OAR 731­070­0240 requires a determination from the Oregon Transportation Commission that a transportation project has the potential to accelerate cost­effective delivery or promote innovative approaches to carrying out the project.    As a result of Senate Bill 810, approved by legislative vote and signed into law by Governor Kitzhaber on August 14, 2013, ODOT is required to implement a voluntary road usage charge system for up to 5,000 vehicles to be fully operational by July 1, 2015. The system, through two successful demonstration projects conducted under the direction of the legislative guiding body, the Road User Fee Task Force (RUFTF) between 2001 and 2013, demonstrated potential for expediting cost­effective project delivery and promoting innovative approaches to project financing through public/private partnerships. Senate Bill 810 requires that ODOT enter into agreements under the Oregon Innovative Partnerships Program to undertake a project consisting of a road usage charge system that includes:  

1. The application of technology standards to determine whether to certify technology, 2. The collection of metered use data, 3. Tax processing, and  4. Account management.

 Senate Bill 810, the Road Usage Charge Program (RUCP) authorizes the Oregon Department of Transportation to assess a charge of 1.5 cents per mile for up to 5,000 cars and light commercial vehicles participating in a road usage charge program and issue an equivalent gas tax refund to those participants. The bill calls for the system to be operational by July 1, 2015. ODOT is currently planning implementation of the legislation in order to meet deadlines, and next steps include organizing vendor conferences and issuing requests for proposals so ODOT can consider a variety of market­provided strategies and solutions to meet the requirements of the legislation.    SB 810 requires ODOT to design the Road Usage Charge Pilot Program to access the open marketplace to provide mileage reporting technologies; tax processing and account management functions. The procurement of these services from the marketplace will require an innovative procurement based on an indefinite duration and indefinite quantity; in essence the procurement will remain open to fulfill the requirements of SB 810 for an open system.  The OIPP authority will facilitate the innovative procurement practices necessary to meet the requirements of SB 810.  Presentation: Innovativ tive Funding Manager Jim Whitty gave the presentation on Oregon’s  re:

      Senate Bill 408 

 The Commission received an informational briefing on ODOT’s preparations to implement Enrolled Senate Bill 408 (Access Management) from Region 4 Manager Bob Bryant.  Governor Kitzhaber signed the bill on June 24, 2013, and it becomes effective on January 1, 2014.  (Background materials in Director/Commission/History Center File, Salem.)  Background: The 2011 Legislative Assembly established the Access Management Oversight Task Force in SB 264. SB 264 authorized the task force to recommend legislation regarding management of access to state highways, as needed, until January 2, 2016. During 2012, the task force work culminated in Enrolled SB 408, which establishes new laws governing access management procedures on state highways in four areas:

o identifying areas of the Oregon Highway Plan and other department manuals, guidelines, and policies that need to be revised to align with SB 408­A and new access management rules. 

 The department will update the Commission periodically as this process moves forward, and expects to bring permanent rules for OAR 734­051 to the Commission for adoption no later than June 2014. The Commission may need to adopt temporary rules before adoption of permanent rules.  Presentation: Region 4 t, and answ

 1. Given  today’s  funding  scenario  how  are  you  expending  funds  and  what  are  the 

implications for that decision? 2. If  there were more  funds  available,  how would  you  prioritize  the  allocation  this  new 

investment  and  what  would  the  change  or  benefit  be  to  the  mode  and  overall transportation system? 

 After  the  panel  discussion,  the Governor’s Transportation Advisor Karmen  Fore,  the OTC,  and ODOT Executive  staff engaged  in a discussion of next  steps. The discussion  included  identifying additional  information about  transportation needs, how  to assemble  the  information provided, and what steps might be needed to engage in a revenue package discussion.  Discussion: Chair Egan started the discussion by framing what the Commission was looking for from the individual  panels. He  asked panel members  to  talk  about  each  of  the  individual modes,  and connectivity between modes.  He asked them to talk, retrospectively, about funding packages like  ConnectOregon  and  other  investments,  and  then  looking  forward,  put  themselves  in  a legislator’s or the department’s shoes, and talk about the needs.  What are the needs?  How are they  identified?    What’s  the  process  for  identifying  them?    What  are  the  projects  and opportunities out there that we’re missing?  If we had the funds, what would they be?   He said it’s premature to talk about revenue or any expectations with legislators if we can’t say with a traight  face  that  we  know what  the  projects  and  opportunities  are  and we  know  how we swould deliver on those projects.

o customer base 490,000 direct, indirect, and influenced jobs are tied to trade in the state 

o   total employment between 2004 Oregon’s trade‐related employment grew faster than

o and 2011 $18 billion of Oregon’s goods were exported in 2012 

o 90 percent of those Oregon exporters are small and medium sized businesses  

All  of  these  products  move  through  a  freight  system  network  of  not  just  one  mode,  but multiple  modes.    Their  challenge  is  having  adequate  funds  to  ensure  that  network  is modernized and connected.  Oregon is a small market, and has to have a transportation system that overcomes that disadvantage and allows us to connect beyond our small market base.  If we  don’t  think  about  the  transportation  system  for  moving  freight  as  an  interconnected ystem, and really understand what we are trying to move, we are setting ourselves back, and sthe transportation system can become a hindrance for our economic future.  The marine  facilities  in  Oregon  are  diverse,  but  provide  significant  economic  benefit  at  the egional, local, and statewide level, and many communities in the state rely on those ports as rtheir economic development engine.    Susie Lahsene said one of the top needs is that most of the port system in antiquated.   Many of the docks were built in the 1940s, and replacement is a real challenge.    Marine facilities rely on the rail system and the road network for access and connection, and often that part of the system is an orphan system, and local jurisdictions have other priorities and aren’t concerned about  that  aspect  of  the  system.    The  ConnectOregon  program  has  been  very  effective  and successful  for other modes, but  the criteria often don’t work  in the marine world, which has ore of a  “if‐you‐build‐it‐they‐will‐come” approach  for  these older  facilities where potential ustomers can’t be attracted without modernizations.   mc 

 

Dave Harlan said the Oregon Port System has one of the broadest port statutory authority in the  nation,  and  great  diversity  in  scale  and  nature  of  activities.  The  port  system has  a  very significant  impact  on  the  economy, with  one‐in‐six Oregon  jobs  tied  to Oregon ports,  either directly  or  indirectly.    Oregon  is  very  dependent  on  trade  and  the  port  system,  but  is overlooked  in  the  large  public mind.    Ports  in  Oregon  are  underfunded  compared  to  other states,  and  have  significant  capital  needs  to  address  deferred  maintenance  and  changing markets.  And a very critical part is that the ports are just one component of Oregon’s marine ransportation system that includes numerous private docks, terminals and related businesses t

that also have economic and employment impacts.   It  is hard  to categorize Oregon ports because  the characteristics,  (inland, coastal, deep draft, etc.),  and  activities  are  so  broad  and  diverse.    Activities  can  include  cargo,  industrial development, commercial fishing, recreation and tourism, to name just a few, and some ports overlap  into  numerous  activities.    It  is  a  struggle  to  administer  port  policy  because  of  this significant  overlap  and  the  hazy  line  straddled  between  economic  development  and

transportation.    ConnectOregon  has  been  a  boon  for  port  projects,  but  they  tend  to  be  a combination of the two agencies’ efforts.    Dave Harlan talked about the economic impacts of projects like the Port of Morrow Industrial Park or dredging at  the Port of Bandon.   One of  the recommendations of  the Statewide Port Plan was development of a Marine Transportation Plan, which would help further identify key investments  and  priorities,  links  between  the  marine  system  and  the  larger  transportation system, and help with advocacy.  Louisiana has a marine plan which would be a good basis for the Oregon plan because of the similarities between the two states.  In response to questions from the Commission, Dave will provide the OTC with information on the cost to develop the ouisiana  Marine  Transportation  Plan  into  a  plan  for  Oregon,  and  examples  of  how  other Lstates fund their ports.  The main  need  is  revenue,  and  to  generate  revenue,  they  need  low‐cost  capital  for  revenue projects.    They  need  access  and  last‐mile  improvements,  and  in  many  instances,  they  need grade separations.  Continued and expanded planning assistance, which brings both public and rivate investment, and regulatory streamlining and advocacy would be one of the functions of he Statewide Marine Transportation Plan. pt  Public Transit Panel – Hal Gard and Julie Brown 

 

Hal Gard  said  the  fragility of  the  transit  system, particularly  for elderly and disabled people and rural providers, was  really emphasized by  the events of  the  last  two weeks.   The  larger metropolitan  transit  providers,  like  Lane  Transit  District,  TriMet,  or  Salem/Keizer,  have sufficient funds to weather a government shutdown, though it does eat into their general fund.  But  the small providers are within weeks of needing  to  truncate or stop service  if we’re not able to provide them funds.  It’s a stark reminder that, in some parts of the state, we are on the agged edge with regard to being able to get some of our most disadvantaged citizens where rthey need to go.  The vast majority of the Public Transit Division’s $80 million biennium budget is federal funds, and  92  percent  of  that  operating  money  is  distributed  to  local  government  or  to  service providers  to provide rides or vehicles  for  the elderly, disabled, or  folks  in rural  routes.   The single greatest  issue for providers  is  the ability  to provide match  for  federal  funding. Capital money  used  to  buy  facilities  or  equipment  like  a  bus  has  an  80‐90  percent  match,  but  for perating funds it’s a nearly 50 percent match.  So you can buy equipment to provide a service, ut you can’t provide that service because you can’t afford the match.   ob

Julie Brown said match is very difficult for rural providers.  When the opportunity for federal funds  comes  up,  often  the  funds  are  left  on  the  table  because  the match  can’t  be met.    The federal  government  gives  DD  Services  60  percent  of  the  money  needed  to  provide transportation  for  people  who  are  developmentally  disabled.    The  state  asks  the  locals  to match  the  remaining  40  percent.    She  said  the Department  of  Human  Services  (DHS)  has  a budget that exceeds most of the budgets in the state, and we should go back and demand they

match  funds  because  this  is,  after  all,  their  program.    Funds  taken  from  the  Special ransportation Fund could certainly be put to other uses. T  Rail Panel – Hal Gard and Brock Nelson 

 

Hal Gard  said passenger  rail  service  is  funded  from gas  tax not used by motor  vehicles  and vanity plate fees.  With a change in federal legislation and with the purchase of new trains, rail is looking at a minimum $14 million deficit.  The state is at a crossroad of whether it wants to ontinue to provide passenger rail service in Oregon.  The current funding situation is woefully cinadequate.    Three  areas  of  concern  are  no  funds  available  for  federal  match,  no  funding  available  for rojects  started with ARRA  funds  that  need  a  federal match  to  build  out  and  complete,  and inally, there is no means of preserving critical short‐line infrastructure. pf 

 

Brock Nelson  said  rail  transportation  is very  important  in  the movement of  freight,  and  is a very  green  and  environmentally  friendly  mode  of  transportation.    It  also  provides nfrastructure  for passenger rail service.   He talked about some of the rail projects currently ibeing worked around the state.  Commissioner Lohman asked how  the  state would benefit  by putting public money  into  the Blue  Mountain  capacity  improvement  project,  given  the  degree  to  which  Oregon  is  a  pass‐through state for freight.  Brock Nelson responded that capacity projects improve our ability to move  freight,  and  could  potentially  add  more  trains  to  what  we  are  moving  today,  which benefits  customers  like  the  Port  of  Portland  by making  it  more  attractive  to  potential  new customers.  He said the best example of where those kind of public investments make the most sense  is  the  I‐5  corridor,  where  a  passenger  network  is  run.    Everything  done  under ConnectOregon  in  that  corridor has had  a public  benefit  through  increased passenger  speed and  efficiency.    It’s  harder  to  justify  public  benefit  for  the Blue Mountain  project  outside  of ncreased capacity, increased fluidity, and giving potential shippers access to rail they may not icurrently have.  To  tell  that  story  better,  Commissioner Baney  asked  staff  to  dig  a  little  deeper  and  find  the connection between ConnectOregon dollars going into those projects, and where we can show specifically how a local company benefitted from increased fluidity or capacity.  We need to be ble to tell the story to our legislators in a way that brings home the importance of continuing a

that investment.    Commissioner Frohnmayer  said  the Harrisburg Bridge project  tells  that  story very well.   He also said he is embarrassed to live in a state that has train service in real jeopardy.  What can we do to get a sustaining source of operating funds for the trains that begins to really build on it as a key component of a sustainable transportation system?   Brock Nelson responded that defining what  the public  truly wants  is where you start.   We will continue to  invest  to move freight as efficiently and as fluidly as possible, and passenger rail will continue to benefit.  Hal

Gard  noted  that  our  partnership  with  Union  Pacific  results  in  15  percent  better  on‐time erformance  rating  than  our  partners  in Washington  State.    Oregon’s  performance  rating  is psignificantly better, and a lot has to do with the attention Union Pacific has put on the line.  Hal Gard said a significant issue facing rail is the fact that federal ARRA dollars are being left on the  table  because  we  do  not  have  matching  funds.    Once  the  work  is  done,  projects  are identified,  improvements  are  noted,  and  federal  money  is  available,  we  currently  have  no means of matching that federal money.   Bicycle and Pedestrian Panel – Mac Lynde and Jenna Stanke 

 

Mac Lynde said biking and walking to work has increased nationally by 57 percent in the last decade.    Pedestrian  deaths  account  for  14  percent  of  fatalities  in  Oregon,  but  they  only represent around four percent of the mode share.  For a small amount of the population using it, this mode has high rate of serious injuries and fatalities, with 62 percent of those occurring on major  arterials.   Many  of  the  investments  for  this mode  are  for  initiatives  that  promote afety,  and  specifically  target  those  key  pedestrian  and  bicycle  countermeasures  for  those smajor arterials and intersections.    Mr.  Lynde  talked  briefly  about  some  of  the  projects  completed  around  the  state,  and  about what needs exist if more funds were made available.  The Bike/Ped Plan starting up will be the hared vision and policy framework for how funds would be invested.  Needs are categorized n three groups: safety on major arterials, regional trails, and community livability. si 

 

Jenna  Stanke  talked  about  some  of  the  funding  gaps  for  the mode.    One  is  Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramps. There are ADA ramps on about 80 percent of the system, but 88 percent of those are not up to standard.  The Transportation Enhancement (TE) and Bike/Ped grant  programs  are  very  oversubscribed,  demonstrated  in  the  2012  round  when  only  11 projects  were  funded,  at  a  total  of  $8.9  million,  from  the  155  notices  of  intent  originally submitted.    She  did  clarify  that  about  50  percent  of  the  original  155  applications were  not moved forward because they just weren’t ready.  Jerri Bohard said one of themes heard about the TE program is around planning, which is problematic for developing bike projects.  The TE program doesn’t have the planning staff for project development, and that is one of the areas harder  on  the  local  systems.    Mac  Lynde  said  that  oversubscription  was  the  precursor  to orming the Active Transportation Section with the intent of bringing those programs together nd having one solicitation effort with a set of timelines and criteria. fa

Aviation Panel – Mitch Swecker and Matt Maass  

Mitch  Swecker  talked  about  the  Oregon  Department  of  Aviation’s  (ODA)  roles  and responsibilities,  its  mission,  and  its  revenue  sources.    ODA  owns  and  operates  about  28 percent  of  the  97  public  use  airports  in  Oregon,  with  the  remainder  divided  between  city, county, port, the U.S. Forest Service, and private ownership.  Of the 97 public use airports, 55 are federally funded.  These airports are used as a transportation mode for business/economic

development,  statewide  access,  tourism,  agriculture,  government  agencies,  emergency services, and recreation.  Issues facing aviation include sequester impacts and the potential to ut  funding  to  air  traffic  control  tower  contracts,  aviation  industry  cluster,  and  unmanned caerial vehicles (UAV/drones).  ODA’s Pavement Maintenance Program (PMP) divides  the state  into  three sections, with one section being done each year, which extends the life of the runway by 20 years.  Work is paid for with a fuel tax fund established by the PMP in 1999.  The annual net revenue for the agency flattened out with  the  recession  in 2009,  and a  change  in  commercial operations versus  the number of passengers has kept it that way.  The model has changed to where aircraft now fly completely  full,  creating  a  steady  decline  in  the  number  of  commercial  operations,  a  figure used to determine fuel revenue.   The FAA model has changed also due to more efficient  jets, ore  efficient  flight  patterns,  and  airlines’  decision  to  operate  fewer  airplanes,  by  offering m

fewer flights but sending them out full.  Oregon has one of  the  lowest  fuel  taxes at $0.01 cent per gallon compared  to other western states  that  have  fuel  taxes  ranging  from  $0.02  to  $0.11  cents  per  gallon.    ODA  had  a  policy option  package  the  last  legislative  session  for  $6.4 million  per  biennium,  and would  like  to raise  the  fuel  tax  to  $0.02  cents  per  gallon.    Those  funds  are  to  help  supplement  cities  and counties around the state to offset the grant match amount, which raised from five percent to en percent in 2012.  This would help the general funds in those cities and counties that have tstruggled to meet the 10 percent match.  Commissioner  Olson  said  the  Forest  Service  is  starting  to  look  for  alternatives  to  the  aging heavy‐lift  helicopter  fleets  current  being  used.    That  alternative  is  thought  to  be  fixed‐wing aircraft.    Airports  in  strategically  located  areas  around  the  state  will  need  to  be  able  to ccommodate  those  aircraft  used  for  firefighting.      She  suggested ODA keep  a  finger  on  the apulse of this with the Madras Airport because it could easily become a very critical area.  If planning dollars were made available, the next step would be to first update the system plan to  make  sure  needs  have  been  identified  appropriately.    From  there,  look  for  funding pportunities  for  commercial  air  service,  airport  infrastructure  to  support  fixed‐wing ofirefighting, or any of those things that are key elements of a robust and capable air system.   Commissioner Baney said we are  just starting  to see some of  the safety opportunities UAV’s might offer for fire suppression or search and rescue, and asked what planning has been done for something along those lines.  Matt Maass responded that the FAA needs to be pulled along a little bit more. Right now,  the FAA is still very constrained on the use of UAVs.   He  is on the Board of Directors  for  the UAV  industry, and said  they are  just  scratching  the surface of  the benefits  of  this  economical way  to  use  air  as  a mode  for  a  number  of  those  key  things  that enefit  land  owners,  agriculture,  the  Forest  Service,  etc.    There  is  also  an  ongoing  political truggle between the federal FFA and local states around the regulation of UAVs.  bs

 Highway Panel – Paul Mather, Ann Hanus, and Craig Honeyman 

 

Paul Mather started the discussion by talking about ODOT construction programs versus the highway budget.  What is the overall need?  What are we doing to be efficient with the money we have, and to manage within the resources we have?  What would we do with a little more money to address those problems?    The Commission received a packet with information on freight bottlenecks, bridge needs and the Seismic Options Report, Enhance and Fix­It ategories, pavement needs, potential jurisdictional transfers, culvert needs, and overall 

nancecmainte  and operations needs.  On the Fix­It side, bridges have a dire future.  Over the next several decades, Oregon bridge conditions will drop from today’s ranking of 20 percent of bridges deficient.  By 2050, that number will flip to 80 percent of Oregon bridges being deficient in some way.  This is caused in part by the large number of bridges built during the baby‐boom generation that are nearing the end of their useful life, and in part because during that same time period, we used a lean design to build bridges. The next step for bridges would be to provide some modest level unding to help gain as much life as possible out of the bridges.  There is a similar story for fculverts.  The most glaring need is pavement repair and maintenance.  We prioritize to the highest level of service roadway, with the interstate being the highest priority because of its high speeds and high truck volumes.  Having potholes in the middle of a freeway where there is congestion and high speed is a safety issue, and not just an investment protection issue.  As we continue to get tighter and tighter in the pavement budget, we continue to focus more and more on those higher end facilities, causing the district level highways to get left behind.  This becomes a point of conflict between ODOT and local government.  However, this also creates an pportunity to target investments back into pavement for those roadways critical to ocommunities, and open discussion on who should have jurisdiction of those roadways.    The maintenance side has focused purely on the inflation factor.  Over the last ten years, the maintenance budget has gone up about four percent.  During that same time period, inflation alone has risen by eight percent.  Highway’s biggest cost driver is fuel, which has risen by 24 rcent.  During that same time period, there has been a four‐five percent reduction in both estaff and equipment to try and offset the inflation numbers.  The operations side is composed of features, like reader boards, variable message signs, red ight camera, etc.  Over the last five years, the amount of features has doubled, but we’re not dding the resources to maintain them. la

Ann Hanus said the Association of Oregon Counties has an interest in a partnership with all the modes discussed today, but states, counties and cities are all part of an interconnected road system.  Collectively, counties manage about 40 percent of the roads in Oregon.  With the decline of timber payments from $270 million in 2007 to $90 million this year, and other financial problems counties are facing, it’s not surprising to hear that counties are in a financial

crisis that impacts the transportation system.  The other issue facing counties is that county personnel have declined significantly, from 2,000 in 1995, to 1,600 recently.  That impacts not only the people out there to fill the pot holes and remove snow, but it also affects the ability to administer and apply for grants.  The counties don’t have the capacity to leverage as many unds as it would like.  In addition, like all the other modes, they have seen significant cost fincreases, such as the cost of asphalt, which has doubled since 2006.  Overwhelmingly, the top county spending priority is maintaining what it has, which is getting increasingly difficult.  Ann Hanus gave samples of what’s happening in counties across the state, like Wheeler County, which has reduced its road crew from eight to two, or Baker ounty, which is in the process of determining which of its currently paved roads will be ounded to a gravel road to reduce maintenance costs. Cp 

 

Craig Honeyman said the League of Oregon Cities agrees that all the modes are critical to the transportation system.  Quite simply, cities are in need of more money for simple road and street maintenance and repair.  As these roads wear out, the result is injury and sometimes death, increased emergency response times, and lost opportunities in terms of economic development.   

 Chair Egan said he is encouraged after all this discussion that there are opportunities.  owever, we have to make quick work now to compile that story before there is legislative H

discussion on a request for funds.  Director Garrett said the reality is that the needs, across all disciplines, foster what revenue there is.  We will gather all this information, identify all needs and concerns, and then have the conversation about who we need to continue to engage and involve as we start the refinement process.  We heard quite clear that we have to tell a better story, and explain what would be one with additional money, and why.  We will continue to work on that with the right people daround the table, and identify potential exposures to the conversation.  Karmen Fore said the meetings have been extremely helpful.  Getting our arms around all the needs is going to be difficult.  As we tell the story, it’s important to put a marker much further out in time to craft a picture of where we want to be as a state, and push our investments in that direction.  She applauded the fact that all the modes were at the table, and we are not fostering the artificial divisions that are created by levels of government.  The charge for this group is to help the governor and legislative leaders find a path to what that vision is going to be.  Where is Oregon going to be 50 years down the road?  How do we position ourselves between two very economically dynamic states?  How do we position ourselves on an international seaboard where the economies of the world are shifting right now?  And in that mix, how do we make our cities livable and make transportation investments that are better for the environment?  How can we best take advantage of new technologies, equipment, and fuel sources?

IMMEDIATE OPPORTUNITY FUND ANNUAL REPORT

SFY 2013 Origin and Purpose of the Fund The Oregon Transportation Commission (OTC) established the Immediate Opportunity Fund (IOF) in cooperation with Business Oregon. The purpose of the IOF is to attract and/or retain business and industry developments through the construction and improvement of highways, streets, and roads. The OTC approved the program on July 15, 1988 and the first IOF projects on August 16, 1988. The IOF is designed to meet the following objectives:

A. Provide needed road improvements to influence the location or retention

of a development or firm in Oregon.

B. Provide procedures and funds for the OTC to respond quickly to economic development opportunities.

C. Provide criteria and procedures for Business Oregon, other agencies,

local governments and the private sector to work with the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) in providing road improvements needed to ensure specific job development opportunities for Oregon, to revitalize business or industrial centers, or to prepare Oregon Certified Project Ready Industrial Sites.

The use of the Immediate Opportunity Fund is limited to:

Type A: Specific economic development projects that affirm job retention

and job creation opportunities. Type B: Revitalization of business or industrial centers to support economic

development and livability. Type C: Preparation of Oregon Certified Project Ready Industrial Sites that

are appropriate for at least one of Oregon’s strategic key industries.

Funding Beginning with the 2004-05 biennium, the Legislature has set aside $7 million per biennium in ODOT’s budget for the IOF. Before that time, IOF funding levels were set by the OTC.

1

Page 345: OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION - … Computer... · OREGON TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION AGENDA November 20, 2013 Salem, Oregon ... Gail L. Achterman Conference Room …

As a guideline, the maximum amount available for a Type A project is $1,000,000. Also as a guideline, the maximum amount available for a Type B project is $250,000. The maximum guideline amount for a Type C project is $500,000. Project proposals are normally expected to commit to match IOF funds on a one-to-one basis. Program Status through State Fiscal Year 2013 148 IOF projects have been approved by the OTC 12 projects were Type B projects, two were Type C projects, and 134 were

Type A projects 19 of these projects have been withdrawn 119 projects have been completed 10 other projects are in various stages of work Approximately 37,800 jobs have been created or retained, although some

have since been eliminated due to changed business conditions Excluding withdrawn projects, the regional distribution of approved projects is: 36 projects or 27.9 percent in Region 1 39 projects or 30.2 percent in Region 2 9 projects or 7.0 percent in Region 3 18 projects or 14.0 percent in Region 4 27 projects or 20.9 percent in Region 5 Again excluding withdrawn projects, the OTC has approved $54,205,791 in IOF expenditures since the program’s beginning. At the time of project approval, these expenditures were expected to eventually result in the creation or retention of approximately 43,200 jobs. However, during the early years of the program, pre-project job creation/retention estimates were higher than the actual numbers of jobs created or retained. Therefore, actual job creation/retention will be lower than this figure. Finally, measured performance for all approved projects is 797 jobs per $ million of IOF commitment. This is slightly greater than measured performance for completed projects, which is 791 jobs per $ million of actual IOF expenditures. Summary Data Data summarizing the location of IOF projects, expenditures or planned expenditures by region and county, and project-specific characteristics are presented in tables below.

November 2013 Oregon Streetcar Project Fund Report

NOVEMBER 2013 OREGON STREETCAR FUND SEMIANNUAL REPORT

Report: This is the third annual project report and the second of two semiannual reports in 2013. This report covers jobs created in the period of January 2012 to December 2012. The final project report will include jobs created January through December 2013 and be available in spring 2013. Legislative History: Chapter 746, Oregon Laws 2007, passed by the Oregon Legislature and signed by the Governor on July 3, 2007, created the Oregon Streetcar Project Fund, allowing for the issuance of $20,000,000 in lottery funds for the purpose of financing grants through the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) to municipalities to provide for the purchase of streetcars from an Oregon-owned and Oregon-based manufacturer for use in public transit systems. By entering into and enhancing participation in the emerging streetcar vehicle market, Oregon manufacturers will create jobs for Oregon residents. The department is to report progress on jobs development to the Oregon Transportation Commission. Administrative History: On April 23, 2008, the Oregon Transportation Commission (OTC) approved Oregon Administrative Rule 732-035-0010 through 732-035-0080 relating to the Oregon Streetcar Project Fund Program. The rules established the Oregon Streetcar Project Fund Program, definitions, eligibility standards and application requirements. Grant History: On September 15, 2008, ODOT informed the City of Portland that their application for a grant to purchase streetcars using funds from the Oregon Streetcar Fund was approved. City of Portland/State Agreement No. 25414 was executed on July 28, 2009. Agreement No. 25414 called for the procurement of up to seven fixed guideway, electric streetcars, as well as all necessary safety and street use equipment, spare parts, special tools and equipment for the streetcars, service and safety manuals, training, and cost for consultant or staff inspection of the design and manufacture of the streetcars. It includes all related materials, services and equipment necessary to outfit the streetcars for City of Portland service. Contract History: City of Portland authorized a contract with Oregon Iron Works, Inc. (OIW) for the production and delivery of Portland Streetcar vehicles that are compatible with the existing Portland Streetcar fleet and able to be operated on the present Portland Streetcar system, as well as on the expanded system following completion of the Portland Streetcar Loop Project. Progress: In July 2010 the city updated ODOT on the status of the design changes being contemplated regarding a major component of the streetcars, the propulsion and electrical system. The original proposal was to provide a propulsion system similar to the one installed at that time on the Portland Streetcar Prototype, funded by the Federal Transit Administration through its National Research Program. After completing an analysis of available alternatives, city staff, city consultants and TriMet’s systems management staff all concurred that proceeding with propulsion/electrical system provided by Elin EBG Traction (Elin), a subsidiary of Siemens AG, was preferred. This change came at a cost of time and money. The base order was reduced from six (6) streetcar vehicles to five (5) and non-recurring engineering costs to make the Elin change were added. The milestone payment schedule was updated and it has been agreed that five streetcars will be purchased.

November 2013 Oregon Streetcar Project Fund Report

ODOT Public Transit Division November 20, 2013

Current Progress: In September 2013 the new streetcar loop was initiated using the prototype car. A ridership survey for the first quarter Loop service with one car shows: 2900 weekday, 3500 Saturday, 2100 Sunday trips. Car 21 Delivery: On January 21, 2013, car #021, the first production vehicle, was delivered to the Portland Streetcar Maintenance and Operations Facility. Since that time the vehicle has proceeded through final low speed and high speed testing, including several high speed tests on TriMet’s Banfield light rail line. This testing of the propulsion and control system, the braking system and all functional aspects of the vehicle proceeded very well. To complete these tests, OIW adds sandbags as weight to the vehicles in order to test propulsion and braking a various load conditions. One potentially significant issue arose after the vehicle was loaded to its highest weight limit. The secondary suspension on the vehicle settled significantly under the heavy load, as expected; however, the springs did not return to their original height after the vehicle was unloaded. This was addressed by OIW, ODOT and several outside parties, with an emphasis on review of the design of the springs and the material characteristics of the metal in the springs. OIW also continued to address a number of mechanical and “fit and finish” issues with the vehicle. The issue was resolved and delivery of the vehicle to the City for acceptance was completed on June 11, 2013. Delivery of Balance of Cars: Delivery of Car 022, Car 023 and Car 024 have been completed and are in Revenue Service. Car 025 is scheduled to be delivered by the first week of November 2013. Jobs: In 2010, four full-time equivalent jobs at United Streetcar were supported by the streetcar project, primarily professional and management positions. The actual number of unique individuals contributing their efforts was higher and included some hours by administrative and production staff as well. In addition, over $190,000 dollars was paid to Oregon based subcontractors or suppliers. In 2011, development and production activity increased significantly, supporting 41 full-time equivalent jobs at United Streetcar. The number of production/shop workers in the fabrication group increased as the physical fabrication of the streetcars began. Over $1.4 million was paid to Oregon based subcontractors or suppliers. In 2012, production continued to increase with hours that supported 47.5 full-time equivalent jobs. This effort included full or part time work for over 218 workers. Additionally, over $1.3 million was paid to Oregon businesses for related materials and supplies. Status reports for 2013 continue to reflect more shop labor, quality control, and testing related hours and jobs. Future Jobs Development: OIW has an order for seven vehicles from the City of Tucson, Arizona and an order for three vehicles for City of Seattle. These orders are valued at $40 million in current contracts. Project Completion: The Portland Streetcar Project agreement has been amended for time and is currently scheduled to terminate December 2013. Final payment will not be made until all the supporting safety information, maintenance manuals, and final inspections are fully complete and documented.

OTIA III Modernization Program Update – September 2013

As of September 30, 2013, the OTIA III Modernization Program has 71 active projects:

3 are right-of-way only 7 are in design or are design only 5 are in construction 56 are complete

Although the program was projected to be completed by December 31, 2012, three significant projects will continue into 2013. These projects are being closely tracked and do not put delivery of the program at risk. To date, $445.6 million of the $500 million budget has been spent.

Program Fund Balance Management and Allocation The OTIA Steering Group (OSG) maintains primary oversight of the following OTIA funding categories:

OTIA III Modernization Program $80 million of Large, Statewide Significant Projects $200 million of Advance Construction/Earmark Projects $100 million Freight Mobility/Industrial Access/Jobs Creation Projects $20 million of Public-Private Partnership Projects $100 million Modernization Equity Projects*

* The OTIA III Modernization Equity funds are allocated based on historical modernization equity splits and are managed by ODOT regions with oversight by the OSG. As funds become available, they are added to the Total Program Fund Balance by category. Only projects on the OTC Approved List for these categories qualify to receive funding. When a region requests additional funding, the OSG evaluates factors such as regional equity, project priority and project status. All requests for new projects, cancellations or major changes in scope must be approved by the OSG and the Oregon Transportation Commission.

OTIA III State Bridge Delivery Program Update – September 2013 This update on the OTIA III State Bridge Delivery Program is based on the Oregon Bridge Delivery Partners Bridge Reporting System as of September 30, 2013. Of the 365 bridges in the program being managed by OBDP and ODOT, 264 are complete. Ninety-four bridges have been moved to “no work” (no construction) status. Design-Bid-Build There are seven bridges active in different phases of the design-bid-build delivery method:

Six bridges are under construction. One bridge is sufficiently complete and open to traffic.

Design-Build All bridges delivered using the design-build method are complete. Program Highlight While replacing two bridges in Bundle 210, Interstate 84: Sandy River to Jordan Road, we took advantage of the opportunity to simultaneously improve the safety and accessibility of a junction for several popular bike and pedestrian paths on the edge of the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area. Formerly, cyclists and pedestrians had to negotiate a single narrow tunnel and local roadways with blind corners and no bike lanes, or ride alongside motor vehicles traveling at highway speeds. Now, both east- and westbound cyclists can ride on a 16-foot-wide multi-use path separated from the eastbound interstate bridge by a barrier railing that meets design guidelines for projects in the scenic area. Below the new bridges, two tunnels will allow access between the U.S. Forest Service Thousand Acres Park, north of the I-84 bridges, and Lewis and Clark State Park and its parking and picnic facilities south of the bridges; they are parallel to but separate from Jordan Road, for safety. Final paving of all paths will take place in summer 2014, as construction on the westbound bridge winds down. Program Fund Balance Management and Allocation Any unallocated bond proceeds remaining at the completion of the bridge program will be reallocated as set forth in House Bill 3415. Seventy-five percent will go to highway projects of statewide significance that are on the list adopted by the Oregon Transportation Commission in May 2002, and 25 percent will go to freight projects that the Freight Advisory Committee considered under section 11 (1)(a), chapter 618, Oregon Laws 2003.
