Title
Transit Safety Targets (10 minutes)
Andy Henry, LPA Staff
Narrative
Since 2018, the DCHC MPO has adopted resolutions to support performance measures and targets for four federal Transportation Performance Measures (TPM), including Transit Asset Management (TAM), infrastructure condition, transportation system performance, and highway and non-motorist safety. A new TPM, called Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP), requires transit systems that receive urbanized area formula grants to develop and implement transit safety management systems. TPM rules require the MPO to support the targets, and reflect the measures and targets in the MTP (Metropolitan Transportation Plan) and TIP (Transportation Improvement Program). The attached presentation provides additional details, and a table of the measures and targets from the safety plans of the transit systems that receive urbanized grant funding from the DCHC MPO. The attached resolution states that the DCHC MPO agrees to plan and program projects that contribute toward the accomplishment of the targets, and amends the 2045 MTP to include the measures and targets.
