SPOT Panel Q & A

SPOT Panel Q & A 31 Why was my project listed as a Regional Impact project but funded as a Division Needs?

32 40% of Funds 30% of Funds 30% of Funds Statewide Mobility Regional Impact Division Needs Focus  Address Local Needs Selection based on 50% Data & 50% Local Input Funding based on equal share for each Division (14) Focus  Address Significant Congestion and Bottlenecks Selection based on 100% Data Projects Programmed prior to Local Input Ranking Focus  Improve Connectivity within Regions Selection based on 70% Data & 30% Local Input Funding based on population within Region (7) How STI Works

SPOT Panel Q & A 33 My TAC doesn’t want to allow cascading of Statewide projects to Division Needs, how can I prevent a project from cascading?

SPOT Panel Q & A 34 I’ve always been confused about the Corridor Cap, can you explain in simple terms?

Corridor Cap 35 136-189.11, (d), (1), b: Project cap. – No more than ten percent (10%) of the funds projected to be allocated to the Statewide Strategic Mobility category over any five-year period may be assigned to any project or group of projects in the same corridor within a Highway Division or within adjoining Highway Divisions.
