Title
Congestion Management Process (CMP) - System Status Report 2014 (9:30-9:45)
Andy Henry, LPA Staff
Narrative
The Congestion Management Process (CMP) System Status report was developed in accordance with federal regulations and the CMP Procedures and Responsibilities that the MPO adopted in June 2011. This report provides the state of system performance, recommendations and future directions. The MPO Board released the report at their January 14th meeting for a 21-day public review and comment period. MPO staff received several comments from local staff but did not receive any comments from the public. Based on those comments, the most significant changes made for the final report include:
· Appropriately designated the recommended CMP projects that are funded in the draft FY2016-2025 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP);
· Renamed the walkability measure to the more appropriate term "walk score;"
· Reformatted Table 3, Regional Performance Measures, to group together those measures that can be compared to population change;
· The comparison of peak and off-peak congestion travel times have been updated, resulting in I-40 (Durham) having the highest percentage of additional peak travel time.
Attachment Item #10 is the final CMP System Status report.
