  3. MOBILITY 2030 DEVELOPMENT Congestion is bad and getting worse, and traditional funds cannot keep up The Dallas-Fort Worth Region has a need by 2030 for $129.5 billion to eliminate the most severe congestion and rebuild aging infrastructure Construction costs have risen 10% per year recently Texas HB 3588 and HB 2702 have provided new development and financial tools Regional Transit Initiative proposes 0.5% sales tax increase Partnerships are part of the key to solving the problem

INTEGRATED COMPREHENSIVE APPROACH: TOLL SYSTEM FOR NORTH TEXAS Mobility Plan Toll Roads and Managed Lanes Needed Short-Term Improvements Preliminary Toll Feasibility Preliminary Agency Selection CDA Option NTTA Option Managed Lane Projects Priority 3 Priority 1 1. Construct Project(s) using Bonding Authority Construct Toll System with Toll Leveraging 2. 3. 4. Trans Texas Corridor Category 2 TxDOTFunds Priority 2 $0 Excess Revenue Operations of Corridor Irregular Mobility Dividends Regional Needs Other Projects Excess Revenue Fund Source: North Central Texas Council of Governments

  11. IMPLICATIONS FOR PUBLIC POLICY Tollroad Impact on Suburbanization – Leveling Role of Peak Period Pricing on Mobility Goals Role of Dynamic Pricing with Guarantees on Reliability of Service Equity of Costs – Value of Time, Regressiveness, or “Opportunity Costs” Equity of Benefits - “Near Neighbor, Near Time Frame” - Toll Users
