RECOMMENDATION
This is an information item
only.
SUMMARY
The current Regional
Transportation Improvement Program (RTIP) adopted by the Agency approved
several projects for the County, the three cities, and Caltrans. Since the
Agency is essentially "out of the loop" during the project delivery
process, the attached project-tracking chart provides periodic updates.
DISCUSSION
The attached schedule shows
all active or recently completed RTIP projects. RTIP projects are approved by the RTPA and programmed by the
California Transportation Commission (CTC).
The gray bars on the attached chart represent the original programmed
project delivery schedule, by component (environmental, design, ROW, and
construction).
After CTC programming, the
local agency responsible for the project must request a CTC funding allocation
to begin each phase of the project.
Blue bars represent project phases that have been allocated and are
complete. Partially filled red bars
with a percentage shown represent active project phases started but not
completed. Striped red bars without
percentages represent project phases not yet authorized for spending.
Project delays can generally
be determined by comparing the programming schedule (gray bars) to the actual
delivery (blue and red bars). The
responsible implementing agency is shown after the project title in parenthesis.
This project-tracking chart
is maintained and provided to the Agency twice a year. Significant project milestones or changes in
the last six months are highlighted below:
1. Six
