PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA and NON-AGENDA ITEMS

ACTION ITEMS

1. Minutes of Meeting of February 23, 2023

2. DVRPC Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Actions

The dynamic nature of funding transportation improvements and the need to remain within financial constraint require amendments or modifications to the TIP. The following projects require formal TIP Amendments or Modifications this month for the FY 2022 TIP for NJ and the FY2023 TIP for PA.

3. Transportation Performance Management (TPM) Roadway Assets Condition and System Performance Targets

Federal legislation requires state departments of transportation, transit operators, and metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) to establish and use a performance-based approach for transportation decision-making to achieve national transportation goals. This includes tracking performance measures, setting data-driven targets, and selecting projects to help meet those targets in five areas: Roadway Safety, Bridge and Pavement Assets Condition, System Performance, Transit Assets, and Transit Safety. PennDOT and NJDOT have recently updated their targets for Bridge and Pavement Roadway Assets Condition (PM2) and System Performance (PM3). Mike Boyer, DVRPC Director of Regional Planning, will present on the performance under each area, as well as a recommendation for regional action on the targets.
