Six-Year Improvement Program (SYIP)

Legal Basis

• §33.1-12(7)(b) of the Code of Virginia requires the CTB to adopt a Six-Year Improvement Program (SYIP) of anticipated projects and programs by July 1 each year• Based on the most recent revenue forecast and the Commonwealth’s

debt policy

Purpose

• Documents how available transportation funding is allocated among capital and maintenance projects by mode, program, project type, system, district or local government, and phase

• Guides the Commonwealth’s spending for transportation improvements over the following six-year period

Revenue Outlook

• FY 2014-2019 financial outlook has been updated as part of the

annual development of the Governor’s Budget Bill and

Transportation’s Six-Year Financial Plan

• State and federal revenue forecasts for FY 2014-2019 are down by total

of $907.5 million

• Preliminary outlook for FY 2015-2020 represents a six-year net

reduction of $491.4 million from FY 2014-2019

5

Impact of Revenue Reduction on FY 2015-2020 SYIP

• Continue to work with existing priorities for SYIP development

• Continue to program remaining new state funding through the CTB Formula; allocations will no longer be sufficient to flow through the original State Construction Formula in FY 2017-2020

• Based on revised revenue estimates, propose to delay project schedules versus eliminating projects in the existing SYIP

• Balance the SYIP update with FY 2020 revenues to reduce impact of revenue reductions for FY 2014-2019

• CMAQ and RSTP funding is estimated to be reduced 2.1% in RSTP or $9.4 million and 2.3% in CMAQ or $6.8 million

• Recommend increasing Revenue Sharing allocation for each year of the SYIP to $184 million per year to meet increasing need

CTB Priorities FY 2015-2020 SYIP

• Fund deficits on project phases already under way

• Fund project phases under way as well as project phases that start in the current federal fiscal year

• Maximize use of federal funds to meet federal strategy

• Fund deficient bridges and paving projects

• Fund ADHS planned projects with an average of 4% of total federal maintenance and construction funds over the six years

• Fund deficient bridges with an average of 13% of total federal maintenance and construction funds over the six years

• Increase funding for preliminary engineering

• Support development of PPTAs

• Allocate funds consistent with how they will be obligated and expended

• Redirect inactive balances on projects

Funding the SYIP

• SYIP is funded with state and federal funds

• Code of Virginia establishes policy for allocating funds for construction

• CTB Formula requires an amount not to exceed $500 million annually to be allocated:

• 25% to bridge reconstruction and rehabilitation;

• 25% to advancing high priority projects statewide;

• 25% to reconstructing deteriorated interstate and primary system pavements determined to have a Combined Condition Index (CCI) of less than 60;

• 15% to Public-Private Transportation Act (PPTA) projects

• 5% to unpaved roads carrying more than 200 vehicles per day; and

• 5% to smart roadway technology

• Amounts over $500 million go through the existing state construction formula

11

SYIP Development Principles

• CTB priorities provide the overarching policy guidance to program the annual update of the SYIP

• Funding/budgeting priorities are used by VDOT to program projects

• Maximize federal funds

• Use project cash flow information

• Use current estimates and schedules

• Match allocations to project

• Fully fund PE by RW phase start

• Fully fund RW by CN phase start

• Fully fund CN phase in year of expected completion; state code requires projects be fully funded within 12 months of completion

12

SYIP Development Principles

• Special fund categories (RSTP, CMAQ, HSIP, TAP, Revenue Sharing) are allocated based on priorities specific to that program and federal and state requirements

• RSTP/CMAQ are allocated by MPOs according to their established processes (CMAQ is reviewed with CTB member) – not applicable to Charlottesville-Albemarle MPO

• NHPP and STP funds used for bridge program allocated based on priorities defined by structural deficiency and other factors

• HSIP funds allocated based on eligibility criteria related to safety issues and cost/benefit analysis

• TAP funds allocated based on the established CTB and MPOs processes

• Revenue Sharing funds allocated based on the established CTB process

13

Programming Projects in the SYIP

• Funding in years two through six is estimated based on SYFP

• Amounts and types of funds available for SYIP development impact individual project funding

• Projects are funded based on their schedules/estimates

• Projects included in the SYIP come from a variety of sources: • General Assembly • Governor/Secretary• CTB priorities• MPO/PDC/Locality priorities• Deficient bridges (S&BD)• Deficient pavement (Maintenance)• Crash/safety data (TED)• Corridor studies (TMPD)• STARS (TMPD)• Plans (CLRP, VSTP, RLRPs)• Continuation of existing SYIP projects
