Presentation Outline • Background • Regional Transit Initiatives • Timeline • PD&E Study • Challenges • Funding • Requested Action
Timeline • 1998 - Initial CCITC Concept • 1999 - Light Rail Project canceled • 2001 - Beeline Monorail lease withdrawn • 2001 - Cross-State Rail Feasibility Study • 2002 - Florida 2012 Olympic bid lost • 2004 - High Speed Rail repealed • 2005 - Commuter Rail emerges as regional transit priority
Presentation Outline • Background • Regional Transit Initiatives • Timeline • PD&E Study • Challenges • Funding • Requested Action
PD&E Study • Public Involvement • Data Collection • Master Planning • Project Programming • Financial Planning • Environmental Assessment • Preliminary Design • Exclusive Bus Corridor Planning
PD&E Study • Bus Bays • 12 for LYNX • 6-7 for I-Ride Trolley • 2 for other shuttles • CRT Connectivity Requirements • Canopy Shelter, Passenger Loading and Waiting Areas • Exclusive Bus Corridor
PD&E Study • Building • Passenger Waiting/Ticketing • Operations • Offices • Restrooms/Vending • Parking • Improved Pedestrian Connections
LRT To Downtown I-Drive Circulator To Convention Center Rail To OIA Rail To Tampa LRT To OIA I-Drive Circulator To Sea World PD&E Study
PD&E Study • Ultimate Concept • “Gateway” to the I-Drive Area • Light Rail Station • International Drive Circulator Station • High Speed Rail Station • OIA Remote Baggage Handling • Transit Oriented Development
Presentation Outline • Background • Regional Transit Initiatives • Timeline • PD&E Study • Challenges • Funding • Requested Action
Challenges • Regional Transit Project Uncertainty • High Capacity Rail Essential for ultimate project development • Market Assessment • Public/Private Partnership • Rental Car Survey • OIA Remote Baggage Handling
Challenges • Final Design Concept • Requires private-sector input • Continued expenditure on design not fiscally responsible • Capital Funding not currently available
Presentation Outline • Background • Regional Transit Initiatives • Timeline • PD&E Study • Challenges • Funding • Requested Action
Funding • TOPs Grant - $3M • TOPs Program Terminates in FY 2007 • PD&E Study Under Contract - $2.1M • Anticipated Expenditure - $1.1M • Anticipated Grant Balance - $1.9M • Construction Funding not in • Current CIP
Funding • Capital Funding not available - $30M+ • Public/Private Partnership • Scenario not determined • Dependent upon high capacity transit
Summary • Significant project planning completed • TOPs Program being terminated • Capital funding not available • High Capacity Transit and OIA Connection Required for private investment • Private development concept necessary for further design expenditure to be useful
Presentation Outline • Background • Regional Transit Initiatives • Timeline • PD&E Study • Challenges • Funding • Requested Action
Requested Action • Approval to request that the FDOT apply the remaining balance of the TOPs grant for the CCITC to other transit-related projects in the general vicinity of the CCITC and, further, authorization for the Mayor to transmit a letter to FDOT formalizing this request.
