SUMMARY:FHWA webinar: Value Capture Strategies as Economic Development Tools
DESCRIPTION:With the interstate highway system in its seventh decade\, it is nearing the end of its useful service life with deteriorated condition and required modernization. Crumbling viaducts and other unsafe conditions call for costly emergency maintenance and an urgent fix. But rebuilding is complicated by rising construction costs\, higher engineering and safety standards\, scant funding\, and other emerging factors. While the Federal Government underwrote most of the cost of building the interstate system in the 1950s and 1960s\, State and local governments now provide about 80 percent of public infrastructure funding. With the perspectives on land use\, transportation\, and equity also evolving\, many cities are finding themselves at a crossroads when it comes to aging highways: remove or rebuild? Over the next decade\, these aging highways will need to be replaced\, reconstructed\, removed\, or otherwise changed. The decision will be focused of what comes after to maximize the economic impact of the infrastructure investments\, generate new tax revenues\, grow businesses and jobs\, and strengthen the livability and vitality of communities and regions. \nUtilize Value Capture to monetize the future new property tax and economic activities revenues to supplement funding needed of rebuilding aging infrastructure. The four value capture techniques best suited for this type of project are: tax increment financing; special assessment districts; development impact fees; and development agreements. Value capture techniques recover a portion of the increased property tax revenues and value of increased economic activity. \nThe webinar on February 9th\, 2023 features experts experienced with these value capture techniques to share their experiences\, lessons learned\, and key takeaways. Come with your questions about these programs and initiatives and walk away with some next steps for applying and tips for putting the concepts into action! Seats are limited\, register today to reserve your slot. \nTARGET AUDIENCE: This webinar series is intended for States\, cities\, counties\, tribes\, and metropolitan and rural transportation professionals looking for innovative funding and financial strategies to pay for transportation projects. Anyone involved in development or administration of value capture techniques is welcomed.

SUMMARY:National Center for Rural Road Safety webinar: Road Ecology – Safety for Four-Legged Pedestrians
DESCRIPTION:The National Center for Rural Road Safety and NLTAPA Safety Work Group are co-hosting this FREE\, 1.5-hour online webinar. Road ecology has made substantial advances over the last few decades. Our knowledge has increased and mitigation measures to reduce the impacts of roads and traffic on wildlife are now widespread and implemented regularly. In many cases\, the mitigation measures address human safety through reducing collisions with large mammals\, provide safe crossing opportunities for wildlife\, and it can even make economic sense to implement these mitigation measures. With funding for wildlife provisions\, research\, and training recently being added in the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL)\, let’s dive into a discussion on wildlife-vehicle collision mitigation.

SUMMARY:FHWA webinar: Value Capture Strategies—Innovative Finance and Project Bundling
DESCRIPTION:States and local governments are challenged to address their aging infrastructure with limited resources. Evaluating the effectiveness of existing revenue sources\, taking advantage of the most current Federal programs\, and exploring the potential of new revenue sources can lead to an increase in available funding. However\, finding ways to maximize the spending power of the revenue collected is equally important by delivering economies of scale through bridge/project bundling. Many infrastructure assets are too small on an individual basis to attract the attention of bidders or investors. A solution to this problem is an asset bundling contract. There is not a one-size-fits-all approach to project bundling. To develop the best funding and financing strategy for bridge bundling within a particular State and locality\, it is essential for agencies to understand the application of each tool and to work collaboratively to pair the right project with the right tools. Utilize bridge/project bundling strategies to meet the requirement threshold which addresses the growing need of aging infrastructure in a way that can expedite project delivery\, reduce costs\, and improve contracting efficiency. \nProject bundling has proven success and happens across agencies. States may lead the bundled projects with local agency participation or local agencies may bundle projects with other local agencies. For example\, the San Francisco Bay Area Metropolitan Transportation Commission is encouraging member agencies to bundle paving projects to expand treatment options not feasible in small quantities. \nJoin us in February 22nd\, 2023 at 10:00-12:00 PT to learn about implementing the nation’s infrastructure through Innovative Financing and bridge/project bundling project delivery. The webinar features experts on how Innovative Finance approaches are used to advance bridge/project bundling projects. How can smaller projects be effectively bundled together to create projects that are more attractive bidders\, meet Federal requirement thresholds\, quickly improve the infrastructure condition\, and expedite project delivery\, reduce costs\, and improve contracting efficiency? How best do we capture efficiencies and encourage collaboration in cross jurisdictional infrastructure projects? \nSpace is limited so you must register to reserve your space. Register today for the Value Capture Strategies: Innovative Finance and Project Bundling. Experts will present case studies demonstrating how all project bundling methods have been strategically used Innovative funding and financing approaches can be leveraged to potentially improve project efficiencies\, reduce costs\, enhance delivery timeframes and free constrained public resources for other priorities and projects. Register today! \nTARGET AUDIENCE: This webinar series is intended for States\, cities\, counties\, tribes\, and metropolitan and rural transportation professionals looking for innovative funding and financial strategies to pay for transportation projects. anyone involved in development or administration of value capture techniques is welcomed.

SUMMARY:FHWA webinar: Value Capture Strategies—Developer Impact Fees and Other Fee-Based Development Charges – The Primer
DESCRIPTION:Developer impact fees (DIFs) are also known as transportation impact fees\, mobility fees\, multimodal transportation impact fees\, or system development charges. A DIF is a one-time fee assessed by local governments on developers to share in new or expanded infrastructure costs to the community that will directly address the increased demand for infrastructure and services created by that development. The goal is to have each new development pay a share of the costs of off-site capital facilities needed to serve the new development—to help growth pay for itself and reduce the financial burden on the existing community. \nFHWA has recently developed a primer on developer impact fees that provides information to transportation agencies that have DIFs or are considering the use of DIFs. The primer provides practical information on what a DIF is\, how it works\, and where it can be used\, as well as spotlighting case studies. Space is limited\, so you register today to reserve your space on March 15th\, 2023 at 10:00-12:00 PT! \nThe program will feature peer experts from leading State and local authorities sharing their respective Development Impact Fees program\, including the processes\, requirements\, accounting and administration\, and much more. Participants have an opportunity interact with peer experts to gain an in-depth understanding the benefits and applicability of developer impact fees and negotiated exactions. \nRegister Now! \nTARGET AUDIENCE: Metropolitan and rural planning/programming organization\, States\, cities\, counties\, townships\, and tribal transportation professionals.

SUMMARY:American Traffic Safety Services Association webinar: Measuring HFST Safety and Functional Performance Over Time
DESCRIPTION:Attend American Traffic Safety Services Association”s (ATSSA’s) upcoming webinar\, “Measuring HFST Safety and Functional Performance Over Time”\, as part of the High Friction Surface Treatment (HFST) webinar series. The 45-minute presentation will conclude with a 15-minute Q&A session. Register here! \nHFST is a pavement treatment with exceptional skid-resistant properties not typically provided by conventional materials such as asphalt concrete or Portland cement concrete. It is intended to reduce crashes by enhancing the skid resistance quality of the pavement at locations where vehicles often brake excessively\, and conflicts are high. \nAs a promising initiative to improve safety\, HFST was implemented by the British Columbia (BC) Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure at several signalized intersections in the Lower Mainland and Vancouver Island in 2018 and 2019. To provide early evidence of the safety effectiveness of the implemented HFST initiative\, the University of British Columbia completed a safety assessment study in 2021. \nTypical crash types targeted by HFST are road-departure and rear-end\, usually observed at intersection approaches\, off-ramps\, and horizontal and vertical curves. The objective of this webinar is to present the before-and-after safety effectiveness evaluation of the implemented HFST at intersection approaches. \nSpeakers include: \n\nJoy Sengupta\, P.Eng\, RSP1\, Principal Highway Safety Engineer with the BC Ministry of Transportation & Infrastructure\nMohamed Essa\, Senior Road Safety Engineer at the BC Ministry of Transportation & Infrastructure\nDavid Merritt\, P.E.\, Project Director with The Transtec Group of Austin\, Texas (Moderator)
