Overview of an MPO
The Franklin County Metropolitan Planning Organization (FCMPO and/or MPO) was
established in 2013 as a transportation policy-making and decision-making entity. The MPO is composed of a Policy Board and a Technical Advisory Committee. FCMPO is responsible for comprehensive, cooperative, and continuous planning for highways, roads, bridges, and public transportation. The MPO coordinates with PennDOT and local municipalities in planning for the
transportation needs of the County.
The MPO Policy Board is composed of 13 voting members, including the Franklin County Commissioners, local municipality representatives, and school districts representatives, and acts as the decision-making entity. The Technical Advisory Committee is composed of 11 voting
members and offers technical insight, advice, and recommendations to the Policy Board on
transportation plans and programs.
The MPO Policy Board and TAC meet on a quarterly basis in the Franklin County Administration Building located at 272 N 2nd Street, Chambersburg, PA 17201. For additional
information such as the time and dates of FCMPO meetings, please contact the Franklin County
Planning Department at 717-261-3855 or visit the Franklin County website.
MPOs are mandated to implement the metropolitan transportation planning process outlined in the federal transportation regulations (23 USC 134 and 49 USC 5303). Federal law and
regulations establish five (5) core functions of an MPO that include the following objectives:
1.Establish and manage a fair and impartial setting for effective regional decision-making in the transportation planning area.2. Identify and evaluate alternative transportation improvement options by using dataand planning methods to generate and evaluate alternatives.
3.Prepare and maintain a Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). The MPO is
responsible for developing and updating LRTPs for the planning area for a period ofat least twenty (20) years that fosters mobility and access for people and goods;efficient system performance and preservation; and good quality of life.4. Develop a Transportation Improvement Program (TIP). The MPO is responsible for
developing a short-range (four-year) program of transportation improvements based
on the LRTP. The TIP should be designed to achieve the area’s goals using spending,regulating, operating, management, and financial tools.5. Involve the general public and all significantly affected sub-groups residing inFranklin County in the four (4) core functions listed above.
Purpose of TIP
The Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) is a short-range of priority projects and acts as an action plan for the upcoming 4 years. It is a prerequisite for federal funding assistance for implementing transportation projects within the metropolitan planning area. The MPO is responsible for developing the TIP in partnership with PennDOT and municipalities and
updating it every two years. The TIP project list covers a four-year period and serves as the first
four years of the Statewide Twelve Year Program (STIP).
The TIP is consistent with the Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP), which includes projects
addressing safety and congestion issues, highway/bridge maintenance projects,
bicycle/pedestrian projects, and freight-related improvements. The LRTP is the primary source for identifying priority projects to be implemented in the TIP. As with all FCMPO planning practices, the LRTP is developed with comprehensive, cooperative, and continuous methods.
The TIP must be financially constrained each year. Funding sources and cost estimates for
professional engineering, right-of-way acquisitions, and construction for programmed projects cannot exceed anticipated federal, state, and local resources. Additionally, all public and private revenues and/or resources that will finance the program are indicated on the TIP, including innovative fiscal techniques. If additional or alternative funding resources become available
during a TIP cycle, FCMPO may adopt a revision to include other projects. If funding becomes
available in the current fiscal year for a project listed in later years, that project can be advanced to the current fiscal year fund cycle without an amendment or revision if the MPO approves.
Additionally, federal law requires that all transportation projects which use federal aid under
Title 23 U.S.C. and Title 49 U.S.C. Chapter 53 provisions must be listed in the TIP. The most
recent transportation act, Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act) was signed into law on December 4, 2015, and authorizes the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) through the following statutes:
●23 United States Code (U.S.C,) 134 (j) and (k)(3) and (4)
●23 U.S.C. 204
●49 U.S.C 5304●23 C.F.R. [Code of Federal Regulations] 450.320, 450.324, 326, 328, 330, and 332●23 C.F.R. 500.109, 500.110, and 500.11
Project Selection Process
The FCMPO staff coordinated closely with PennDOT District 8-0 and Central Office to ensure planning consistency on the TIP. PennDOT’s Central Office and Engineering District 8-0 are involved in Franklin County’s planning process and are frequently consulted to provide guidance
and insight into best practices on the TIP. The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and Policy
Board were provided copies of the Draft 2023-2026 in the November and February Policy Board Meetings, and the January TAC meeting. All meetings had a presentation and time allotted for questions. TAC and Policy Board voting members had no objections against the proposed project listing.
Financial Plan
The financial plan is derived from a comprehensive, cooperative, and continuous planning process for the Franklin County region. The TIP must be financially constrained each year. Funding sources and cost estimates for professional engineering, right-of-way acquisitions, and
construction for programmed projects cannot exceed anticipated federal, state, and local
resources. The financial considerations are conducted by PennDOT as part of the development of the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The Franklin County MPO will continue
to pursue opportunities where additional funding may be available to enhance transportation for the County.
The federal and state-funded projects in the 2023-2026 Franklin County TIP can be implemented using current and proposed revenue sources. Funds are presented in Year of Expenditures (YOE) dollars and are adjusted for inflation from the present time to the year of construction for a more accurate cost estimate.
Title VI Assurances
The Franklin County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) assures that no person shall on the grounds of race, color, creed, national origin, sex, disability, age, income, or limited proficiency in English, as provided by Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, and the Civil
Rights Restoration Act of 1987 (Public Law 100.259), and the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation (PennDOT) Title VI Plan, be excluded from participation in, be denied benefits of, or be otherwise subjected to discrimination under any program or activity. The FCMPO further assures every effort will be made to ensure non-discrimination in all of its programs and activities, whether those programs and activities are federally funded or not.
The Civil Rights Restoration Act of 1987 broadened the scope of Title VI coverage by expanding the definition of the terms “programs and activities” to include all programs or activities of Federal Aid recipients, sub-recipients, and contractors/consultants, regardless of whether such programs and activities are themselves federally assisted (P.L. 100.259 [S.557]
March 22, 1988). In the event the FCMPO as the recipient distributes federal aid funds to a sub-
recipient, the FCMPO will include Title VI language in all written agreements and will monitor for compliance.
The Franklin County Planning Department is responsible for initiating and monitoring Title VI
activities, preparing reports, and other responsibilities as required by 23 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR) 20 and 49 CFR 21.
Public Participation Process
The Public Participation Plan (PPP) includes policies and guidance for public outreach the MPO
shall follow when developing, amending, or adopting various planning documents. The PPP
works to ensure that all members of the public - including populations that have been underserved by the transportation system and/or have lacked access to the decision-making process - are given the opportunity to participate in the metropolitan transportation planning process that shapes Franklin County. The PPP guides the FCMPO’s efforts to offer early,
continuous, and meaningful opportunities for the public to help identify social, economic, and
environmental impacts of proposed transportation policies, projects, and initiatives. This document was created under the guidance of the FAST Act to encourage a decision-making process that allows the public the opportunity for engagement and is responsive to local needs. The public participation process for the Transportation Improvement Program will meet the
Federal Transit Administration public participation requirements for the Franklin County MPO.
The FCMPO’s Public Participation Process strives to achieve the following objectives: 1. Provide opportunities for public review and comment at key decision points, including a
reasonable opportunity to comment on the proposed Metropolitan Transportation Plan
(MTP)/Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and the Transportation ImprovementProgram (TIP), with adequate public notice and access to underlying technical and policyinformation.2. Provide timely information about transportation issues and decision-making processes to
citizens, affected public agencies, and stakeholders including representatives of public
transportation users and users of bicycle and pedestrian facilities, representatives of thedisabled, private transportation providers, providers of freight transportation services,freight shippers, representatives of public transportation employees, and other interestedparties; and
3. Provide participation opportunities to those traditionally underserved by existing
transportation systems, such as low-income and minority populations.
The Draft FY 2023-2026 TIP was released for a 30-day public comment period from April 6, 2022, to May 6, 2022. An advertisement was placed in The Mercersburg Journal on April 6,
2022 for one day requesting public review and comment on the 2023-2026 TIP and information
on the TIP Public Open House. The FCMPO held an Open House for the Draft FY 2023-2026 TIP on April 19, 2022, at 10 AM. EST. The meeting was offered both virtually and in person. The final adoption of the FY 2023-2026 TIP was acted on in the May 12, 2022, MPO meeting.
Administration
The TIP document is maintained and administered by the staff of the Franklin County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). During the life of the TIP, situations may arise which require changes to be made to the current TIP document. Amendments of the approved TIP that occur in off-cycle that are deemed by the FCMPO as “Administrative Changes” or
“Adjustments” are not subject to formal public notification. Public involvement and comments
will be accepted but not solicited. An amendment to the TIP may be considered an “Administrative Change” based on any of the following criteria:
●To correct a non-substantive clerical error;●Changes in funding levels that are less than two (2) million dollars or are part of a
STIP grouped project category;
●The affected project/s are not regionally significant and exempt fromtransportation conformity requirements;●Changes in the funding type, but overall funding levels remain constant or do notexceed the requirement prior;
●Any other changes approved by the ISC that meet the criteria of an
“administrative change”.
Transportation Performance Management Section 1
Transportation Performance Management
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) continues the requirements established in Moving Ahead for
Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) and the Fixing America's Surface Transportation (FAST) Act
for performance management. These requirements aim to promote the most efficient investment of
Federal transportation funds. Performance-based planning ensures that the Pennsylvania Department
of Transportation (PennDOT) and the Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) collectively invest
Federal transportation funds efficiently towards achieving national goals. In Pennsylvania, the Rural
Planning Organizations (RPOs) follow the same requirements as MPOs.
Transportation Performance Management (TPM) is a strategic approach that uses data to make
investment and policy decisions to achieve national performance goals. 23 USC 150(b) outlines the
national performance goal areas for the Federal-aid program. This statute requires the Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA) to establish specific performance measures for the system that address these
national goal areas. The regulations for the national performance management measures are found in
23 CFR 490.
National Goal Areas
Safety To achieve a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on allpublic roads.
Infrastructure Condition To maintain the highway infrastructure asset system in a state of good repair
Congestion Reduction To achieve a significant reduction in congestion on the National Highway
System
System Reliability To improve the efficiency of the surface transportation system
Freight Movement and
Economic Vitality
To improve the national freight network, strengthen the ability of rural
communities to access national and international trade markets, and support
regional economic development.
Environmental
Sustainability
To enhance the performance of the transportation system while protecting
and enhancing the natural environment
Reduced Project
Delivery Delays
To reduce project costs, promote jobs and the economy, and expedite the
movement of people and goods by accelerating project completion through
eliminating delays in the project development and delivery process, including
reducing regulatory burdens and improving agencies' work practices
Performance Based Planning and Programming
Pennsylvania continues to follow a Performance Based Planning and Programming (PBPP) process, with
a focus on collaboration between PennDOT, FHWA, and MPOs/RPOs at the county and regional levels.
These activities are carried out as part of a cooperative, continuing, and comprehensive (3C) planning
process which guides the development of many PBPP documents, including:
Statewide and Regional Long Range Transportation Plans (LRTPs)
Twelve-Year Transportation Program (TYP)
State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP)
Regional Transportation Improvement Programs (TIPs)
Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP)
Transit Asset Management (TAM) Plans
Transportation Performance Management Section 2
Public Transportation Agency Safety Plans (PTASP)
Pennsylvania Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP)
Comprehensive Freight Movement Plan (CFMP)
Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) Performance Plan(s)
Congestion Management Process (CMP)
Regional Operations Plans (ROPs)
The above documents in combination with data resources including PennDOT’s bridge and pavement
management systems, crash databases, historical travel time archives, and the CMAQ public access
system provide the resources to monitor federal performance measures and evaluate needs across the
state. Based on these resources, PennDOT and MPOs/RPOs have worked together to (1) create data
driven procedures that are based on principles of asset management, safety improvement, congestion
reduction, and improved air quality, (2) make investment decisions based on these processes, and (3)
work to set targets that are predicted to be achieved from the programmed projects. Aligning goals and
performance objectives across national (FHWA), state (PennDOT) and regions (MPOs/RPOs) provide a
common framework for decision-making.
PennDOT, in cooperation with the MPOs/RPOs, has developed written provisions for how they will
cooperatively develop, and share information related to the key elements of the PBPP process including
the selection and reporting of performance targets. In addition, PennDOT has updated their Financial
Guidance to be consistent with the PBPP provisions. The Financial Guidance provides the near term
revenues that support the STIP and is provided on the FCMPO website under “2023-2026 TIP.”
Evaluating 2023-2026 STIP Performance
The Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2023-2026 State Transportation
Improvement Program (STIP) supports the goal areas established in
PennDOT’s current long range transportation plan (Pennsylvania
2045). These include safety, mobility, equity, resilience, performance
and resources. The goals are aligned with the national goal areas and
federal performance measures and guide PennDOT in addressing
transportation priorities.
The following sections provide an overview of the federal
performance measures. Since asset management, reliability and
CMAQ targets have not yet been set for the 2022-2025 performance
period, the current project selection process for the FY2023-2026 TIP is highlighted and related to
meeting future targets. Over the 4-year STIP, nearly 85% of the total funding is associated with highway
and bridge reconstruction, preservation, and restoration projects. However, these projects are also
anticipated to provide significant improvements to highway safety and traffic reliability for both
passenger and freight travel. Through these performance measures, PennDOT will continue to track
performance outcomes and program impacts on meeting the transportation goals and targets. Decision

support tools including transportation data and project-level prioritization methods will be continually
developed and enhanced to meet PennDOT and MPO/RPO needs. Dashboards and other reporting tools
will be maintained to track and communicate performance to the public and decision-makers.
Safety Performance Measures (PM1)
The FHWA rules for the National Performance Management Measures: Highway Safety Improvement
Program (Safety PM) and Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) were published in the Federal
Register (81 FR 13881 and 81 FR 13722) on March 15, 2016, and became effective on April 14, 2016.
These rules established five safety performance measures (commonly known as PM1). The current
regulations are found at 23 CFR 490 Subpart B and 23 CFR 924. Targets for the safety measures are
Data Source
Data for the fatality-related measures are taken from the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS)
and data for the serious injury-related measures are taken from the State motor vehicle crash
database. The Vehicle Miles of Travel (VMT) are derived from the Highway Performance Monitoring
System (HPMS).
Number of fatalities 1,140.6
Rate of fatalities per 100 million VMT 1.157
Number of serious injuries 4445.6
Rate of serious injuries per 100 million VMT 4.510
Number of non-motorized fatalities & serious injuries 761.2
An analysis of Pennsylvania’s historic safety trends was utilized as the basis for PennDOT and
MPO/RPO coordination on the State’s safety targets. The targets listed above are based on a 2%
annual reduction for fatalities and maintaining levels for suspected serious injuries, which was derived
from the actions listed in the Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP), crash data analysis and the desire

Progress Towards Target Achievement and Reporting:
PennDOT and the MPOs/RPOs continue efforts to ensure the STIP, regional TIPs, and Long-Range
Transportation Plans (LRTPs) are developed and managed to support progress toward the achievement
of the statewide safety targets. At this time, only the Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission
(DVRPC) has elected to establish their own regional safety targets. All other MPOs/RPOs have adopted
the statewide targets.
PennDOT’s Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) serves as a blueprint to reduce fatalities and serious
injuries on Pennsylvania roadways and targets 18 Safety Focus Areas (SFAs) that have the most influence
on improving highway safety throughout the state. Within the SHSP, PennDOT identifies 3 key emphasis
areas to improve safety – impaired driving, lane departure crashes, and pedestrian safety.
Lane Departure Crashes Speed & Aggressive Driving Seat Belt Usage Impaired Driving
Intersection Safety Mature Driver Safety Local Road Safety Motorcycle Safety
Pedestrian Safety Bicycle Safety
Distracted Driving Traffic Records Data Work Zone Safety
Vehicle-Train Crashes
Transportation Performance Management Section 5
Pursuant to 23 CFR 490.211(c)(2), a State Department of Transportation (DOT) has met or made
significant progress toward meeting its safety performance targets when at least 4 of the 5 safety
performance targets established under 23 CFR 490.209(a) have been met or the actual outcome is
better than the baseline performance for the year prior to the establishment of the target. For
Pennsylvania’s 2020 targets, the FHWA determined in March 2022 that Pennsylvania did not meet the
statewide targets and is subject to the provisions of 23 U.S.C. § 148 (i). This requires the Department to
submit an implementation plan that identifies gaps, develops strategies, action steps and best practices,
and includes a financial and performance review of all HSIP funded projects. In addition, the Department
is required to obligate in Federal Fiscal Year (FFY) 2023 an amount equal to the FFY 2019 HSIP
apportionment.
As part of the Highway Safety Improvement Program Implementation Plan, the Department identified
gaps and best practices to support further reducing serious injuries and fatalities. The following
opportunities were identified as ways to assist with meeting future targets: (1) appropriate project
selection, (2) expanding local road safety in HSIP, (3) assessing programs that support non-motorized
safety, (4) expanding use of systemic safety projects, (5) improved project tracking for evaluation
purposes and (6) project prioritization for greater effectiveness.
PennDOT continues to provide feedback on statewide and MPO/RPO-specific progress towards target
achievement. The progress helps regional MPOs/RPOs understand the impacts of their past safety
investments and can guide future planning goals and strategy assessments.
Franklin County TIP:
As part of the annual target coordination with the MPO’s the Department has provided the planning
partners their comparable data so they can evaluate their target setting with regards to the
methodology that is being used from a statewide perspective.
The MPO’s can access data about their region through the Pennsylvania Crash Information Tool
(PCIT).
Franklin County works closely with PennDOT Central Office and Engineering District 8-0 Staff to
ensure planning consistency with PennDOT’s Performance Measure Targets. PennDOT’s Central
Office and Engineering District 8-0 are involved in Franklin County’s planning process and are
frequently consulted to provide guidance and insight into best practices based on PennDOT’s
strategy for meeting established performance measures.
Evaluation of STIP for Target Achievement:
The following will ensure that planned projects in the STIP will help to achieve a significant reduction of
traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads:
• PennDOT receives federal funding for its Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP). The
2023-2026 STIP includes $520 million of HSIP funding. The Department distributes nearly 70% of
this funding to its regions based on fatalities, serious injuries, and reportable crashes. In
addition, a portion of the HSIP funding is reserved for various safety initiatives statewide. A
complete listing of the HSIP projects is included on Page 4.
• All projects utilizing HSIP funds are evaluated based on a Benefit/Cost (B/C) analysis, Highway
Safety Manual (HSM) analysis, fatal and injury crashes, application of systemic improvements,
Transportation Performance Management Section 6
improvements on high-risk rural roads, and deliverability. Specifically, as part of PennDOT’s HSIP
application process, a data-driven safety analysis in the form of B/C analysis or HSM analysis is
required. Performing this analysis early in the planning process for all projects will help ensure
projects selected for inclusion in the TIP will support the fatality and serious injury reductions
goals established under PM1.
• The process for selecting safety projects for inclusion in the TIP begins with the Network
Screening Evaluation that the Department has performed on a statewide basis. Selecting
locations with an excess crash frequency greater than zero from this network screening is key to
identifying locations with a high potential to improve safety. This evaluation has been mapped
and is included in PennDOT’s OneMap to ease use by PennDOT’s partners. At the current time,
this is not all inclusive for every road in Pennsylvania. Locations not currently evaluated may be
considered by performing the same type of excess crash frequency evaluation the Department
utilizes. Once this analysis has been performed, the data is used by the Engineering Districts and
planning partners to assist MPO/RPO’s in evaluating different factors to address the safety
concern
• PennDOT continues to improve on the methods to perceive, define and analyze safety. This
includes integration of Regionalized Safety Performance Functions (SPFs) that have been used to
support network screening of over 20,000 locations.1
• PennDOT continues to identify new strategies to improve safety performance. PennDOT is
actively participating in EDC 5 to identify opportunities to improve pedestrian safety as well as
reduce rural roadway departures. These efforts new strategies are incorporated into future
updates to the SHSP.
• Safety continues to be a project prioritization criterion used for selecting other STIP highway and
bridge restoration or reconstruction projects. Many of these projects also provide important
safety benefits.
• PennDOT continues to evaluate procedures to help in assessing how the STIP supports the
achievement of the safety targets. As HSIP projects progress to the engineering and design
phases, Highway Safety Manual (HSM) predictive analyses are completed for the project in
accordance with PennDOT Publication 638. The HSM methods are the best available state of
practice in safety analysis and provides quantitative ways to measure and make safety decisions
related to safety performance. PennDOT will continue to identify ways to expand the
application of HSM analyses to support more detailed assessments of how the STIP is supporting
achievement of the safety targets.

Franklin County TIP (PM 1)
The amount of regional TIP funding that is used to support safety for the FFY 2023 TIP is $2.1 million.
Franklin County will continue to work with PennDOT Central Office and Engineering District 8-0 and
review progress towards achieving the established Statewide Performance Measure Targets on an
ongoing basis to ensure continuing, comprehensive, and coordinated approaches towards meeting
the Performance Measure Targets.
On February 17, 2022, FCMPO adopted the Safety Performance Targets set forth by PennDOT.
FCMPO plans on engaging in an ongoing safety planning effort in collaboration with PennDOT
Central Office and Engineering District 8-0. These ongoing safety planning efforts will enable FCMPO
to evaluate the results of its efforts and identify any additional actions necessary to achieve the
long-term goal of eliminating crashes.
FCMPO will follow PennDOT Engineering District 8-0 guidance and network screening on the process
for selecting Highway Safety Improvement (HSIP) candidates and applications for the selection on
the TIP. During the TIP updates and adoption, programming of candidate locations for HSIP funding
will be at the discretion of FCMPO.
Pavement/Bridge Performance Measures (PM2)
The FHWA rule for the National Performance Management Measures; Assessing Pavement and Bridge
Condition for the National Highway Performance Program was published in the Federal Register (82
FR 5886) on January 18, 2017 and became effective on February 17, 2017. This rule established six
measures related to the condition of the infrastructure on the National Highway System (NHS). The
measures are commonly known as PM2. The current regulations are found at 23 CFR 490 Subpart C
and Subpart D. Targets are established for these measures as part of a four-year performance period,
the first was 2018 to 2021. This TIP includes projects that will impact the second four-year

Progress Towards Target Achievement and Reporting:
PennDOT continues to implement enterprise asset management for programming and decision-making
as outlined in the TAMP.3 PennDOT is transitioning to the new TAMP that was finalized in the summer
of 2022. The tools and methodologies are continually evaluated to prioritize state-of-good repair
approaches that preserve transportation system assets. Within the TAMP, PennDOT identifies the
following key objectives:
PennDOT’s analyses pertaining to life cycle management, risk management, financial planning, and any
performance gaps culminate in an investment strategy to support the objectives and goals established in
the TAMP.
PennDOT and the MPOs/RPOs continue to ensure the STIP, regional TIPs, and LRTPs are developed and
managed to support progress toward the achievement of the statewide pavement/bridge objectives and
targets that will be established for the 2022-2025 performance period. Pennsylvania’s pavement and
bridge projects provided in the FY2023-2026 TIP were selected through extensive coordination with
PennDOT’s Asset Management Section in accordance with the TAMP. The projects are consistent with
PennDOT’s asset management objectives of maintaining the system at the desired state of good repair,
managing to lowest life cycle costs (LLCC), and achieving national and state transportation goals.
After the 2022-2025 performance targets are set, PennDOT will provide feedback on statewide and
MPO/RPO-specific progress towards target achievement. The progress helps each region understand
the impacts of their past bridge and pavement investments and can guide future planning goals and
strategy assessments.
Franklin County TIP (PM-2)
FCMPO staff works closely with PennDOT Engineering District 8-0 to ensure consistency with
Performance Measure 2 targets as established by PennDOT.
FCMPO is supportive of all PennDOT statewide targets and will continue to work closely with District
8-0 on an ongoing basis to ensure planning and project programming is consistent with PennDOT
best practices.
FCMPO will continue to monitor annual reports provided by PennDOT.

TAMP Objectives
•Sustain a desired state of good repair over the life cycle of assets
•Achieve the lowest practical life-cycle cost for assets
•Achieve national and state goals
Transportation Performance Management Section 10
Evaluation of STIP for Target Achievement:
The following has helped to ensure that planned projects in the STIP will help to maintain a desired state
of good repair in bridge and pavement conditions for the interstate and NHS roadways:
• Nearly 85% of PennDOT’s STIP funding is directed to highway and bridge preservation,
restoration, and reconstruction projects. Many of these projects are focused on our state’s
interstate and NHS roadways.
• Pennsylvania’s investment strategy, reflected in the statewide 2023 Twelve Year Program (TYP)
and 2023-2026 STIP, is the result of numerous strategic decisions on which projects to advance
at what time. PennDOT continues to address the challenges of addressing local needs and
priorities, while ensuring a decision framework is applied consistently across the state.
• The TAMP provides a 12-year outlook that includes the financial strategy for various work types
and is a driver for the TIP, STIP and LRTP development. The TAMP projects the levels of future
investment necessary to meet the asset condition targets and contrasts them with expected
funding levels. This helps PennDOT to make ongoing assessments and to reevaluate data
associated with its future investment decisions.
• In support of the STIP development, PennDOT and MPOs/RPOs jointly developed and approved
General and Procedural Guidance and Transportation Program Financial Guidance documents.4
The guidance, which is consistent with the TAMP, formalizes the process for Districts,
MPOs/RPOs and other interested parties as they identify projects, perform a project technical
evaluation, and reach consensus on their portion of the program.
• The Procedural Guidance also helps standardize the project prioritization process. The guidance
is key to resolving issues between programming to lowest life-cycle cost, managing current
infrastructure issues and risk mitigation. The resulting methodology allows data-driven, asset
management-based decisions to be made with human input and insight based on field
evaluations to achieve maximum performance of the available funds. The guidance document is
revised for each STIP cycle as PennDOT’s asset management tools and methods evolve and
enhance its ability to program to lowest life cycle cost.
• In the short term, candidate projects are defined, and the proposed program is compared to
Pavement Asset Management System (PAMS) and Bridge Asset Management System (BAMS)
outputs to verify that the program is developed to the lowest practical life cycle cost. The
percentages of good and poor can also be projected for evaluation of how the program may
impact the national performance measures. When PAMS and BAMS are further implemented
and improved, then planners can use the systems to optimize the selection of projects to
achieve optimal performance within the funding constraints. Draft programs can then be
analyzed in relation to the PM2 measures.

Franklin County TIP (PM-2)
Bridge and pavement conditions are integrated into the MPO process by data obtained from
PennDOT Central Office and Engineering District 8-0. FCMPO takes this data and considers it into our
TIP project selection process and during the preparation of the Long Range Transportation Plan.
There is $3.5 million of Spike funding programmed into the 2023 TIP for Franklin County for Rocky
Mountain Creek Bridge (MPMS 90839).
The total amount of bridge deck area for projects based on the 2023 TIP are 49,562 sq. ft.
The total amount of miles of pavement improved based on the 2023 TIP are 12.84 miles.
FCMPO anticipates the projects selected for the TIP to work towards achieving the performance
measures as set out by PennDOT.

and Air Quality Improvement Program was published in the Federal Register (82 FR 5970) on January
18, 2017 and became effective on May 20, 2017. This rule established six measures related to various
aspects of the transportation system (commonly known as PM3). The current regulations are found
at 23 CFR 490 Subparts E, F, G & H. Targets are established for these measures as part of a four-year
performance period, the first was 2018 to 2021. This TIP includes projects that will impact future

The System Performance measure targets will be established by October 2022 in coordination with
MPOs/RPOs within the state. PennDOT continues to evaluate historic variances in performance
measures in relation to project completion to assist with the target setting process.
Transportation Performance Management Section 13
Progress Towards Target Achievement and Reporting:
PennDOT and the MPOs/RPOs continue efforts to ensure the STIP, regional TIPs, and LRTPs are
developed and managed to support the improvement of the reliability and CMAQ performance
measures. This future progress will be measured against the targets established for the 2022-2025
performance period. PennDOT continues to monitor the impacts of completed investments on
performance measures to better evaluate investment strategies. These efforts include evaluating the
causes of historic reliability and delay issues, identifying freight bottlenecks, and assessing completed
projects that provided the most benefits to reliability.
PennDOT remains committed to expand and improve system mobility and integrate modal connections
despite the large percentage of funding dedicated to infrastructure repair and maintenance. PennDOT’s
LRTP provides objectives to address mobility across the transportation system that will guide investment
decisions. The federal systems performance measures will be used to assess future progress in meeting
these objectives and the associated targets.

Evaluation of STIP for Target Achievement:
The following has helped to ensure that planned projects in the STIP will help to achieve an
improvement in the system performance measures for the statewide interstate and NHS road system:
• PennDOT continues to emphasize their Transportation Systems Management and Operations
(TSMO) initiatives to program low-cost technology solutions to optimize infrastructure
performance. This has included the development of Regional Operations Plans (ROPs) that
integrate with the MPO Congestion Management Process (CMP) to identify STIP projects. A
TSMO funding initiative was established in 2018 to further support these efforts. The 2023-2026
STIP includes over $289 million of funding dedicated to congestion relief projects.
• PennDOT has funded interstate projects to address regional bottlenecks. Mainline capacity
increasing projects are limited to locations where they are needed most. These investments will
provide significant improvements to mobility that support meeting the interstate and freight
reliability targets.
• The statewide CMAQ program provides over $440 million of funding on the STIP for projects
that benefit regional air quality. PennDOT has worked with Districts and MPO/RPOs to develop
more robust CMAQ project selection procedures to maximize the air quality benefits from these
projects.
• Over $210 million is provided in the STIP for multi-modal alternatives. This includes funding for
transit operating costs, transit and rail infrastructure, support for regional carpooling and other
bike and pedestrian infrastructure within the state. These projects provide opportunities to
reduce vehicle miles of travel (VMT) and increase the percentage of non-single occupant
vehicles.
• At this time, the potential impact of past and planned STIP investments on PM-3 performance
measures are still being evaluated. The timeline for project implementation often prevents an
assessment of measurable results until a number of years after project completion. PennDOT
continues to monitor the impact of recently completed projects on the reliability and delay
measures. As more data is obtained, these insights will help PennDOT in evaluating potential
project impacts in relation to other factors including incidents and weather on system reliability
and delay.

Transportation Performance Management Section 16
Transit Asset Management Performance Measures
In July 2016, FTA issued a final rule (TAM Rule) requiring transit agencies to maintain and document
minimum Transit Asset Management (TAM) standards, policies, procedures, and performance targets.
The TAM rule applies to all recipients of Chapter 53 funds that either own, operate, or manage
federally funded capital assets used in providing public transportation services. The TAM rule divides
transit agencies into two categories (tier I and II) based on size and mode. The TAM process requires
agencies to annually set performance measure targets and report performance against those targets.
For more information see: Transit Asset Management | FTA (dot.gov)
Data Source
The TAM rule requires states to participate and/or lead the development of a group plan for
recipients of Section 5311 and Section 5310 funding, and additionally allows other tier II providers to
join a group plan at their discretion. All required agencies (Section 5311 and 5310) and remaining tier
II systems except for Centre Area Transportation Authority (CATA), have elected to participate in the
PennDOT Group Plan. The Group Plan is available on PennDOT’s website at PennDOT Group Plan. The
group plan is updated annually with new targets as well as the current performance of the group.

PennDOT annually updates performance targets based on two primary elements: the prior year’s
performance and anticipated/obligated funding levels. PennDOT requires rolling stock and non-
revenue vehicles (equipment) to meet both age and mileage ESL standards prior to being replaced.
While the identified annual targets represent only age and condition in line with FTA guidelines,
PennDOT will continue to apply age and mileage when making investment decisions.
Transportation Performance Management Section 17
Progress Towards Target Achievement and Reporting:
The Pennsylvania TAM Group Plan fulfills the PBPP requirement and encourages communication
between transit agencies and their respective MPOs and RPOs. In accordance with the plan, the
following actions take place that fulfill the PBPP requirement:
•PennDOT provides asset performance reports to transit agencies by August 31 of each year that
measure performance against established targets for the previous fiscal year.
•Transit agencies review the content for accuracy and confirm with PennDOT that information
related to transportation asset performance has been received and is accurate.
•Transit agencies share performance data with their respective planning partner by the end of
each calendar year, or earlier as decided between the partners.
•New performance goals for the upcoming fiscal year are established no later than September 15
of each year and communicated to transit agencies covered under the group plan.
•Transit agencies continue regular coordination regarding the local Transportation Improvement
Plan (TIP) and other planning initiatives of the local planning partner.
All transit agencies are required to utilize Pennsylvania’s transit Capital Planning Tool (CPT) as part of
their capital planning process and integrate it into their TAM process. The CPT is an asset management
and capital planning application that works as the central repository for all Pennsylvania transit asset
and performance management activities.
Consistent with available resources and in coordination with the PennDOT BPT, transit agencies are
responsible for submitting projects consistent with the CPT for the development of the transit portion of
the Program. This ensures that projects identified on the TIP are consistent with the TAM approach and
respective TAM plans. PennDOT CPDM will update this project information in MPMS and share it with
the MPOs/RPOs, PennDOT BPT, and the transit agencies.
Evaluation of STIP for Target Achievement:
The STIP includes an investment prioritization process using established decision support tools. The
investment prioritization process occurs annually as part of the capital budgeting process. To prioritize
investments at an agency level and at a statewide level, the following basic actions take place:
•Update inventory in the CPT to include age, mileage, condition, and operational status
•Identify assets that are not in a state-of-good-repair, using the following priority process:
o Vehicles that surpass age and mileage ESL
o Vehicles that surpass age or mileage ESL and are rated in poor condition or represent a
safety hazard
o Facilities that have a condition rating of less than 3 on the TERM Scale, with priority
given to facilities that are the lowest in the scale and represent a critical need to
maintain operational capacity
•Determine available funding based on federal and state funding sources
•Develop projects within the CPT Planner based upon funds availability
•Import CPT Planner into DotGrants for the execution of capital grants
Throughout the process, PennDOT reviews projects and works with agencies to approve and move
projects forward through the grant process.

targets.
Franklin County does not have a transit provider. The FCMPO works off the York Adams County
Transportation Authority for rabbittransit services provided throughout the County.
Public Transit Safety Performance Measures
In addition to the Transit Asset Management Performance, FTA issued a final rule on Public
Transportation Agency Safety Plans (PTASP), effective July 19, 2019. The PTASP final rule (49 C.F.R. Part
673)is meant to enhance safety by creating a framework for transit agencies to manage safety risks in
their organization. It requires recipients of FTA funding to develop and implement safety plans that
support the implementation of Safety Management Systems (SMS). At this time, recipients of only
Section 5311 (Formula Grants for Rural Areas) or Section 5310 (Enhanced Mobility of Seniors and
Individuals with Disabilities Program) are exempt from the PTASP requirement.
As part of the plan development process, performance targets must be established for the following
areas:
1.Fatalities,
2.Injuries,
3.Safety Events, and System Reliability
All public transit agencies in the Commonwealth have written safety plans compliant with Part 673 as of
July 20, 2021. These safety plans must be updated annually based on agency specific execution dates
and shared with PennDOT BPT. It is also the transit agency’s responsibility to share the updated plan
with their respective MPO/RPO, so the new targets and measures can be incorporated into regional
planning practices.
Franklin County TIP

Central Pennsylvania Transportation Authority
FINANCIAL CAPACITY PROGRAM
Introduction
This assessment is in accordance with the FTA C. 7008.1A and the Year of Expenditure requirement.
The purpose of the Financial Capacity Policy is for transit grantees to demonstrate that they make
capital investments based on the current and projected capability to maintain and operate current
assets, and to determine the ability to operate and maintain the new assets on the same basis, providing
at least the same level of service, for at least one replacement cycle of such assets. The program
maintains two basic aspects: (1) demonstrate the general financial condition of the Central Pennsylvania
Transportation Authority (CPTA); and (2) the communicate CPTA’s sound financial planning efforts.
Assessment Requirements/Components
Planning and Project Development- Unified Planning Work Program. Transportation planning activities,
such as database development and the development of analytical revenue and cost forecasting
techniques needed to assess financial capacity, must be included in the urbanized area’s Unified
Planning Work Program of the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO). In addition, when the State
and MPOs certify that the planning process is being carried out in accordance with Federal
requirements, they must describe the region’s public involvement process for balancing the cost of
approved plans and programs with current and projected revenues.
Projected Cash Flow Statement – This is a multi-year projection, back five years (actual) and forward
twenty years (CPTA forecasts a 12-year projection based on the EUL of the vehicles of revenues and
expenses (and related items such as depreciation) relating to the grantee as an organization. It identifies
expected revenues and expenses for each year, incorporating and highlighting the effects of a planned
capital project or program of projects.
Financial Condition – This includes historical trends and current experience in the financial ability of the
grantee to operate and maintain its transit system at present levels of service. The information
supporting the assessment of the financial condition of the grantee is usually provided in audited
financial statements and other financial reports. Financial condition is reflected in working capital levels,
cash balances, capital reserves, the presence and status of depreciation accounts, debt levels, trends in
transit costs as compared to available revenues, and trends in other relevant economic indicators.
Satisfactory financial condition means that the grantee can pay its current costs from existing revenues.
Financial Capability – This refers to the stability and reliability of revenue sources needed to meet future
annual capital and operating and maintenance costs. Assessments of financial capability shall cover the
greater of the period equivalent to one replacement cycle of the basic system; the retirement of any
debt issued to finance the capital project; or 20 years. Financial capability considers the nature of funds
pledged to support operating costs and capital replacement programs (12 years for CPTA), as well as
forecasted changes in fare and non-fare revenues.
Capital costs include both replacement and rehabilitation of existing equipment and facilities as well as
new investments. Operating and maintenance costs include those for the present system, as well as
increases due to capital investment and service expansion.
Satisfactory financial capability means the grantee’s ability to meet its expansion costs in addition to its
existing operations from projected revenues.
Program Management and Compliance - Regular grant monitoring will emphasize whether the findings
and self-certifications of financial capacity made at the grant approval stage retain their validity. The
Triennial Reviews will be the instrument used for monitoring.
FINANCIAL CAPACITY ASSESSMENT
1) Financial Condition
Historical Trends and Current Conditions-
For Fiscal Year 2019, rabbittransit’s total operating expenditures were $27,663,164. Approximately,
53.3% of the total operating expenditures were used to operate paratransit in a ten-county service area.
This was generated through a combination of non-fixed route (all demand response) and ADA
paratransit services operating expenditures.
Ridership levels for FY 2019 were steady. 66% percent of the fixed route riders have no other means of
transportation with 65% of riders using fixed route service 5 or more days per week. Additionally, 61% of
the riders earn an average income of $23,000* or less per year. 44% of fixed route riders use
rabbittransit for trips to/from work and 21% use the bus to access medical/dental services. Based on
this information, rabbittransit has concluded that the majority of its passengers are very susceptible to
fare increases.
*FY2019 fixed route ridership survey, the maximum margin of error with a sample of 499 is +/4.2% at the 95% level of
confidence
A significant factor affecting paratransit service is the trip length and onboard time. In FY 2019 the
average shared ride trip length was 13.3 miles per trip and the average on-board time was 38 minutes.
rabbittransit believes that there are two factors creating the increase in trip distances; the first is urban
sprawl and the second is the fundamental changes in older adults’ needs for transportation.
rabbittransit is projecting FY 2021 expenses to be at $ 14,022,216 for fixed route, express and
microtransit services; system wide expenses are projected to be $ 30,011.179 which includes the
paratransit service. With the passing of Pennsylvania ACT 44 in 2007, rabbittransit experienced a
50% increase in state funding, with an average of 5.2% additional each year since. For FY2021, the
increase in state funding to rabbittransit will be 7.5%.
Financial Projections-
rabbittransit’s financial capacity analysis is a six-year combined operating and capital needs projection.
The factors determining the outcomes are based on current and historical information. For this
Operating and Capital Capacity Plan, the inflation factors were 3% and 5% respectfully. The analysis
demonstrates that rabbittransit can continue to operate at FY 2020 service levels through FY 2023.
rabbittransit works closely with the State and Federal Transportation Departments and other groups of
interests when developing projections. The CPTA Board of Directors are aware of how public
transportation in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is funded. It is the policy of the Board of
Directors to have service levels that can be supported by funding levels. When funding levels fall short
of needs, service levels and fares are adjusted accordingly.
2) Financial Capability
Local match funds from Adams County historically have been a concern for CPTA. Last year Adams
County provided an increase that reduced this concern level. If local match cannot meet legislative
mandates, service levels will be adjusted based on the level of match for operating and to maintain a
state of good repair with rolling stock. State funding would be returned to the state and most likely
permanently lost
Capital-
Funding remains a concern at the state level. With the loss of discretionary funding based on the
Congressional ban on earmarks and the loss of FTA discretion grants, the capital burden falls back on
the state. The FAST ACT provides an understanding of the future, the ACT does financially put transit
on solid ground. ACT 89 provides a good foundation for a capital program, but Federal funds need to
continue at historic level with the possibility of growth. All eyes are on the sunset clause in ACT 44 in
relation to the funding provided to PennDOT by the Turnpike.
Operating-
With the implementation of PA ACT 44, and recently ACT 89, state operating funds are steady. MAP
21 addressed the 200,000-population issue, allowing systems with 100 or less buses in peak service to
utilize a percentage of the 5307 funds for operating.

Project Selection Process:
Projects can get on the TIP several different ways. However, the standard way is through PennDOT and
municipalities’ submitting projects to the FCMPO. The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) reviews the draft listing to approve, deny, or recommend other funding resources. The TAC makes a recommendation to the MPO Policy Board, which then makes a motion to approve or deny the document. Municipalities were contacted on 9/9/2021 by MPO staff to solicit their traffic safety and improvement concerns. Staff met with Greencastle and Chambersburg Borough and sent a list of municipal concerns to PennDOT District 8-0 for
consideration into the FY 2023-2026 TIP. The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and Policy Board were provided copies of the Draft FY 2023-2026 in the November and February Policy Board Meetings, and the January TAC meeting. All meetings had a presentation and time allotted for questions. TAC and Policy Board voting members had no objections against the proposed project listing.
TIP PROJECT PRIORITIZATION PROCESS
The following criteria for the prioritization of transportation projects were developed during the development of
the Long Range Transportation Plan. These criteria are published as part of the Action Plan in the final version of the Long Range Transportation Plan which can be found at www.franklincountylrtp.com.
Criteria for the Prioritization of Transportation Projects:
Consistency with County Goals and Objectives (project aligns with county goals/policies)
Consistency with Local Goals and Objectives (project aligns with local goals/policies)
Local Commitment (project is supported through local resources)
System Preservation (project helps meet optimal replacement cycle for asset maintenance)
Environment (the potential impact of project on natural and manmade environments)
Social Impact
Air Quality
Natural Resources
Accessibility and Mobility (project facilitates improved movement of people and freight)
System Management and Operation
Integration and Connectivity
Providing New Capacity
Safety and Security (project improves safety and/or security)
Economic Vitality (the impact a project has on the ability to provide jobs or economic benefit)
The role of the MPO is to continually monitor the funding available through the TIP and the evaluation criteria adopted during the development of the LRTP to match project proposals to address transportation system needs within the available funding. The use of these criteria as improvement proposals compete for available funding helps ensure that the Franklin County TIP will continue to meet the goals and objectives of the LRTP, address
the federally-mandated planning factors, and address the asset management approach to programming as set by
PennDOT. The LRTP update will be adopted in Spring 2023.
PennDOT District 8 Roadway Selection Process
PennDOT utilizes two different methods to develop candidate projects to submit to the MPO for consideration.
The two different methods overlap and validate each other to select the best candidates. One process is based on
human knowledge of the area and the other is based on data analysis.
Human- To identify pavement priorities in each county for District 8, the County Maintenance Manager
identifies pavement priorities for their county and shares the list with the District Highway Design
Engineer. County A-Team rides are then conducted including the following staff: District Executive,
Assistant District Executive-Design and Maintenance, District Highway Design Engineer, District
Traffic Engineer, District Planning and Programming Manager and County Maintenance Manager. The
A-Team ride provides the District staff with a in person knowledge of the priorities to help determine
the needs. Staff then conducts a meeting to discuss the priorities and funding availability from both
maintenance and Transportation Improvement Programs (TIP). Projects deemed to be more appropriate
for TIP funding are shared with the MPO for funding consideration.
Data Analyis-The District Planning and Programming section also utilizes data from the Roadway
Management System (RMS) to score segments of roadway based on International Roughness Index
(IRI), Overall Pavement Index (OPI), Average Daily Traffic (ADT), Average Daily Truck Traffic
(ADTT) and last year of resurfacing. Each Business Plan Networks (BPN) for each county is analyzed
separately. There are four Business Plan Networks: BPN 1-Interstates, BPN 2- National Highway
System (NHS) Non-Interstate, BPN 3-Non-NHS, ADT >= 2,000 and BPN 4-Non-NHS, ADT < 2,000.
The data is then mapped into the PennDOT One Map system and categorized as High, Medium, Low
and Lowest and color coded to assist in identify adjacent segments within the same category to identify
potential candidates for resurfacing. Candidates are shared with the MPO for funding consideration.
The District Planning and Programming section coordinates with the regional MPO’s on their prioritization
process and identifying any local needs that have been identified that overlap with the candidates. If the MPO
does not have a prioritization process the district will provide the priority of the projects and what projects could
be incorporated based on available funds and eligibility.

Executive Summary
As part of its transportation planning process, the Franklin County Metropolitan
Planning Organization (FCMPO) completed the transportation conformity process
for the 2023-2026 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) and the 2018-2043
Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). This report documents that the TIP and
LRTP meets the federal transportation conformity requirements in 40 CFR Part 93.
Note that conformity for the LRTP is being reaffirmed to address the 4-year
frequency requirement for conformity; and there are no changes to the LRTP.
Franklin County is currently working on an update to the LRTP that will be finalized
in 2023.
Clean Air Act (CAA) section 176(c) (42 U.S.C. 7506(c)) requires that federally funded
or approved highway and transit activities are consistent with (“conform to”) the
purpose of the State Implementation Plan (SIP). Conformity to the purpose of the SIP means that transportation activities will not cause or contribute to new air quality
violations, worsen existing violations, or delay timely attainment of the relevant NAAQS or any interim milestones. EPA’s transportation conformity rules establish
the criteria and procedures for determining whether metropolitan transportation plans, transportation improvement programs (TIPs), and federally supported
highway and transit projects conform to the SIP.
On February 16, 2018, the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia
Circuit in South Coast Air Quality Mgmt. District v. EPA (“South Coast II,” 882 F.3d
1138) held that transportation conformity determinations must be made in areas that
were either nonattainment or maintenance for the 1997 ozone national ambient air
quality standard (NAAQS) and attainment for the 2008 ozone NAAQS when the
1997 ozone NAAQS was revoked. These conformity determinations are required in
these areas after February 16, 2019. Franklin County was maintenance at the time of
the 1997 ozone NAAQS revocation on April 6, 2015 and was also designated
attainment for the 2008 ozone NAAQS on May 21, 2012. Therefore, per the South
Coast II decision, this conformity determination is being made for the 1997 ozone
NAAQS.
This conformity determination was completed consistent with CAA requirements,
existing associated regulations at 40 CFR Parts 51.390 and 93, and the South Coast II
decision, according to EPA’s Transportation Conformity Guidance for the South Coast II
Court Decision issued on November 29, 2018.

1.0 Background
1.1 Transportation Conformity Process
The concept of transportation conformity was introduced in the CAA of 1977, which
included a provision to ensure that transportation investments conform to a State
Implementation Plan (SIP) for meeting the Federal air quality standards. Conformity
requirements were made substantially more rigorous in the CAA Amendments of
1990. The transportation conformity regulations that detail implementation of the
CAA requirements were first issued in November 1993, and have been amended
several times. The regulations establish the criteria and procedures for transportation
agencies to demonstrate that air pollutant emissions from metropolitan
transportation plans, transportation improvement programs and projects are
consistent with (“conform to”) the State’s air quality goals in the SIP. This document
has been prepared for State and local officials who are involved in decision making
on transportation investments.
Transportation conformity is required under CAA Section 176(c) to ensure that
Federally-supported transportation activities are consistent with (“conform to”) the
purpose of a State’s SIP. Transportation conformity establishes the framework for
improving air quality to protect public health and the environment. Conformity to
the purpose of the SIP means Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and Federal
Transit Administration (FTA) funding and approvals are given to highway and
transit activities that will not cause new air quality violations, worsen existing air
quality violations, or delay timely attainment of the relevant air quality standard, or
any interim milestone.
1.2 National Ambient Air Quality Standards
The CAA requires the EPA to set NAAQS for pollutants considered harmful to
public health and the environment. A nonattainment area is any area that does not
meet the primary or secondary NAAQS. Once a nonattainment area meets the
standards and additional redesignation requirements in the CAA [Section
107(d)(3)(E)], EPA will designate the area as a maintenance area.
Franklin County is currently designated as a maintenance area under the 1997 8-hour
ozone NAAQS. The county is in attainment of the 2008 and 2015 8-hour ozone, 2006
24-hour PM2.5 and 2012 annual PM2.5 NAAQS. Transportation conformity requires
nonattainment and maintenance areas to demonstrate that all future transportation
projects will not prevent an area from reaching its air quality attainment goals.
3
1997 8-hour Ozone NAAQS
The EPA published the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS on July 18, 1997 (62 FR 38856),
with an effective date of September 16, 1997. An area was in nonattainment of the
1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS if the 3-year average of the individual fourth highest air
quality monitor readings, averaged over 8 hours throughout the day, exceeded the
NAAQS of 0.08 parts per million (ppm). On May 21, 2013, the EPA published a rule
revoking the 1997 8-hour ozone NAAQS, for the purposes of transportation
conformity, effective one year after the effective date of the 2008 8-hour ozone
NAAQS area designations (77 FR 30160).
On February 16, 2018 the D.C. Circuit reached a decision in South Coast Air Quality
Management District v. EPA, Case No. 15-1115. In that decision, the court vacated
major portions of the final rule that established procedures for transitioning from the
1997 ozone NAAQS to the stricter 2008 ozone NAAQS. By court decision, Franklin
County was designated as an “orphan” maintenance area since the area was
maintenance for the 1997 ozone NAAQS at the time of its revocation (80 FR 12264,
March 6, 2015) and was designated attainment for the 2008 NAAQS in EPA’s original
designations for this NAAQS (77 FR 30160, May 21, 2012).
2008 and 2015 8-hour Ozone NAAQS
The EPA published the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS on March 27, 2008 (73 FR 16436),
with an effective date of May 27, 2008. EPA revised the ozone NAAQS by
strengthening the standard to 0.075 ppm. Thus, an area is in nonattainment of the
2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS if the 3-year average of the individual fourth highest air
quality monitor readings, averaged over 8 hours throughout the day, exceeds the
NAAQS of 0.075 ppm. Franklin County was designated as an attainment area under
the 2008 8-hour ozone NAAQS, effective July 20, 2012 (77 FR 30088).
In October 2015, based on its review of the air quality criteria for ozone and related
photochemical oxidants, the EPA revised the primary and secondary NAAQS for
ozone to provide requisite protection of public health and welfare, respectively (80
FR 65292). The EPA revised the levels of both standards to 0.070 ppm, and retained
their indicators, forms (fourth-highest daily maximum, averaged across three
consecutive years) and averaging times (eight hours). Under the Clean Air Act, the
EPA administrator is required to make all attainment designations within two years
after a final rule revising the NAAQS is published. Franklin County is in attainment
of the 2015 8-hour ozone NAAQS.
2.0 FCMPO TIP and LRTP
MPOs and Rural Planning Organizations (RPOs) each develop a TIP at the local
level, which reflects the first four years of the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation (PennDOT) Twelve Year Program (TYP). The Statewide
Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) covers the entire state and includes the
individual TIPs representing each Planning Partner. Federal Law requires TIPs to be
4
updated at least every four years. Pennsylvania’s MPOs and RPOs update their TIPs
every two years during the TYP update process.
The Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) serves as the official transportation plan
for a metropolitan area. The LRTP documents the current and future transportation
demand and identifies long-term improvements and projects to meet those needs.
The Franklin County LRTP guides decision-making about transportation
improvements in the county. The planning factors specified in federal regulations
provide the framework for developing an LRTP. In addition, PennDOT provides
guidance to help MPOs prepare LRTPs, and local policies and plans play a role in
LRTP development to ensure transportation investments address current and future
needs.
The February 16, 2018, South Coast vs. EPA Court decision did not vacate EPA’s
revocation of the 1997 ozone standard and the decision does not change the area’s
attainment status. Therefore, while such areas might be required to meet conformity
requirements as part of anti-backsliding controls, such areas are not considered
nonattainment or maintenance areas under the Transportation Planning Rule (23
CFR 450.104). Such areas continue to complete 5-year plan update cycles as described
in 23 CFR 450.324(c). The 5-year metropolitan transportation plan update cycle
continues to apply from the date of the most recent MPO metropolitan transportation
plan adoption (not the most recent FHWA/FTA conformity determination). While
these areas have a 5-year plan cycle for transportation planning purposes, as a result
of the court decision they must still meet the 4-year frequency requirements for
conformity determinations on TIPs and LRTPs as required by 40 CFR 93.104.
Appendix A provides a listing of the regional significant projects that are funded in
the TIP and LRTP within Franklin County. Regionally significant projects include
transportation projects (other than exempt projects as defined under 40 CFR 93.126-
127) that are on a facility which serves regional transportation needs.
3.0 Transportation Conformity Process
Per the court’s decision in South Coast II, beginning February 16, 2019, a
transportation conformity determination for the 1997 ozone NAAQS will be needed
in 1997 ozone NAAQS nonattainment and maintenance areas identified by EPA1 for
certain transportation activities, including updated or amended TIPs and LRTPs.
Once US DOT makes its 1997 ozone NAAQS conformity determination, conformity
will be required no less frequently than every four years. This conformity
determination report will address transportation conformity for the FCMPO 2023-
2026 TIP and 2018-2043 LRTP.
1 The areas identified can be found in EPA’s “Transportation Conformity Guidance for the South Coast II Court Decision, EPA-
420-B-18-050, available on the web at: www.epa.gov/state-and-local-transportation/policy-and-technical-guidance-state-and-
local-transportation .

4.0 Transportation Conformity Requirements
4.1 Overview
On November 29, 2018, EPA issued Transportation Conformity Guidance for the
South Coast II Court Decision2 (EPA-420-B-18-050, November 2018) that addresses
how transportation conformity determinations can be made in areas that were
nonattainment or maintenance for the 1997 ozone NAAQS when the 1997 ozone
NAAQS was revoked, but were designated attainment for the 2008 ozone NAAQS in
EPA’s original designations for this NAAQS (May 21, 2012).
The transportation conformity regulation at 40 CFR 93.109 sets forth the criteria and
procedures for determining conformity. The conformity criteria for TIPs and LRTPs
include: latest planning assumptions (93.110), latest emissions model (93.111),
consultation (93.112), transportation control measures (93.113(b) and (c), and
emissions budget and/or interim emissions (93.118 and/or 93.119).
For the 1997 ozone NAAQS areas, transportation conformity for TIPs and LRTPs for
the 1997 ozone NAAQS can be demonstrated without a regional emissions analysis,
per 40 CFR 93.109(c). This provision states that the regional emissions analysis
requirement applies one year after the effective date of EPA’s nonattainment
designation for a NAAQS and until the effective date of revocation of such NAAQS
for an area. The 1997 ozone NAAQS revocation was effective on April 6, 2015, and
the South Coast II court upheld the revocation. As no regional emission analysis is
required for this conformity determination, there is no requirement to use the latest
emissions model, or budget or interim emissions tests.
Therefore, transportation conformity for the 1997 ozone NAAQS can be
demonstrated by showing the remaining requirements in Table 1 in 40 CFR 93.109
have been met. These requirements, which are laid out in Section 2.4 of EPA’s
guidance and addressed below, include:
• Latest planning assumptions (93.110)
• Consultation (93.112)
• Transportation Control Measures (93.113)
• Fiscal constraint (93.108)
4.2 Latest Planning Assumptions The use of latest planning assumptions in 40 CFR 93.110 of the conformity rule
generally applies to a regional emissions analysis. In the 1997 ozone NAAQS areas,
the use of latest planning assumptions requirement applies to assumptions about
transportation control measures (TCMs) in an approved SIP. However, the Franklin
County SIP maintenance plan does not include any TCMs.

4.3 Consultation Requirements
The consultation requirements in 40 CFR 93.112 were addressed both for interagency
consultation and public consultation.
As required by the federal transportation conformity rule, the conformity process
includes a significant level of cooperative interaction among federal, state, and local
agencies. For this air quality conformity analysis, interagency consultation was
conducted as required by the Pennsylvania Conformity SIP. This included
conference call(s) or meeting(s) of the Pennsylvania Transportation-Air Quality Work
Group (including the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT), DEP,
EPA, FHWA, FTA and representatives from larger MPOs within the state).
Meeting and conference calls were conducted on October 28, 2021 and January 27,
2022 to review all planning assumptions and to discuss the template and content for
transportation conformity analyses in 1997 ozone orphan areas.
The TIP, LRTP and associated conformity determination has undergone the public
participation requirements as well as the comment and response requirements
according to the procedures established in compliance with 23 CFR part 450,
FCMPO’s Public Participation Plan, and Pennsylvania's Conformity SIP. The draft
document was made available for a 30-day public review and comment period,
which included a public meeting.
4.4 Fiscal Constraint
The planning regulations, Sections 450.324(f)(11) and 450.326(j), require the
transportation plan to be financially constrained while the existing transportation
system is being adequately operated and maintained. Only projects for which
construction and operating funds are reasonably expected to be available are
included. The FCMPO, in conjunction with PennDOT, FHWA and FTA, has
developed an estimate of the cost to maintain and operate existing roads, bridges and
transit systems in the region and have compared the cost with the estimated
revenues and maintenance needs of the new roads over the same period. The
FCMPO TIP and LRTP has been determined to be financially constrained.
5.0 Conclusion
The conformity determination process completed for the FCMPO TIP and LRTP
demonstrates that these planning documents meet the Clean Air Act and
Transportation Conformity rule requirements for the 1997 ozone NAAQS.

2023-2026 Franklin County MPO TIP Environmental Justice Analysis Introduction
The public involvement efforts for the Department of Transportation are guided by several federal mandates to ensure
nondiscrimination in federally funded activities. These mandates are designed so that planning and public involvement activities are
conducted equitably and in consideration of all citizens, regardless of race, nationality, sex, age, ability, language spoken, or economic
status. These mandates include:
•Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 - Title VI of the Civil Rights Act states that "No person in the United States shall, on the
grounds of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefit of, or be subjected to
discrimination under any program or activity receiving federal financial assistance." PennDOT and its partners are committed to
providing open and inclusive access to the transportation decision-making process for all persons, regardless of race, color or
national origin.
•Executive Order on Environmental Justice (Executive Order 12898 February 11, 1994) - Environmental Justice is the fair
treatment and meaningful involvement of all people regardless of race, color, national origin, or income with respect to the
development, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies. PennDOT and its partners are
committed to providing opportunities for full and fair participation by minority and low- income communities in the
transportation decision-making process.
•Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) - The Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 stipulates involving persons with disabilities in
the development and improvement of services. Sites of public involvement activities as well as the information presented must
be accessible to persons with disabilities. PennDOT and its partners are committed to providing full access to public involvement
programs and information for persons with disabilities. All public meetings are held in ADA-accessible locations. With advance
notice, special provisions can be made for hearing-impaired or visually-impaired participants.
•Executive Order on Limited English Proficiency - Executive Order 13166, "Improving Access to Services for Persons with Limited
English Proficiency," was signed on August 11, 2000. Recipients of federal funding "are required to take reasonable steps to
ensure meaningful access to programs and activities by LEP person." PennDOT and its partners will make special arrangements for
the provision of interpretative services upon request.
Franklin County MPO 2023-2026 TIP Environmental Justice Analysis
2
FHWA recently introduced the Environmental Justice Core Elements Methodology to ensure an MPO/RPO can meaningfully assess the
benefits and burdens of plans and programs. PennDOT and the Franklin County MPO are committed to following the Core Elements
approach, which includes:
•Avoid, minimize, or mitigate disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects, including social and
economic effects, on minority populations and low-income populations.
•Ensure the full and fair participation by all potentially affected communities in the transportation decision-making process.
•Prevent the denial of, reduction in, or significant delay in the receipt of benefits by minority populations and low-income
populations.
By integrating the Core Elements into the planning process, state and local agencies are better equipped to carry out the investment
strategy and project selection. The EJ process should be comprehensive and continuous with each task informing and cycling back to
influence the next step. Identifying Minority and Low-Income Populations
In development of the 2023-2026 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), the Franklin County MPO conducted an Environmental
Justice Benefits and Burdens analysis. A distributive geographic analysis was conducted to identify the locations and concentrations of
minority, low-income and other Traditionally Underserved Populations (TUP).
The identification of these populations is essential to establishing effective strategies for engaging them in the transportation planning
process. When meaningful opportunities for interaction are established, the transportation planning process can effectively draw upon
the perspectives of communities to identify existing transportation needs, localized deficiencies, and the demand for transportation
services. Mapping of these populations not only provides a baseline for assessing impacts of the transportation investment program, but
also aids in the development of an effective public involvement program.
Minority population is defined as any readily identifiable group of Black, Hispanic, Asian American, American Indian, and Alaskan Native
who live in geographic proximity and who would be similarly affected by a proposed FHWA program, policy, or activity. Low-income
population is defined as any readily identifiable group of persons at or below the Department of Health and Human Services poverty
guidelines who live in a geographic proximity who would be similarly affected by a proposed FHWA program, policy, or activity.
As shown in Table 1, based on the 2015-2019 American Community Survey (ACS) data, minority persons in Franklin County are 11.9
percent of the total population. The number of persons in poverty is just over 9 percent of the total county population.

Table 2 identifies the total population by race and low-Income category. Based on those numbers, Figure 1 highlights the poverty rate
for each racial/ethnic group. The White, Non-Hispanic category has the highest population and most individuals that are low-Income,
however, the overall poverty percentage is only about 9 percent, which is lower than the county average of 10 percent. In contrast,
nearly 25 percent of the Hispanic population and nearly 72 percent of the Native Hawaiian category is considered low-income.
Figure 2 shows the concentrations of minority populations by Census “block groups” based on 2015-2019 ACS data. Figure 3 shows the
concentrations of households below the poverty county average by Census block groups, also based on 2015-2019 ACS data.

CONDITION ASSESSMENT
In order to meaningfully analyze benefits and adverse effects of the transportation program,
the MPO has examined the existing conditions of transportation assets throughout the region
and safety performance measures among the minority and low-income populations. These data
assessments allow the MPO to track changes in crashes, poor condition bridges, and poor
pavement mileage in the region and identify safety gaps and distribution disparities between
minority and low-income populations. An explanation of methodology can be found on Page
16.
Tables 3 and 4 provide the number and percentage of bridges by condition and by the
concentration of minority and low-income population. Franklin County currently has 59 bridges
in poor condition. Of those bridges, only 5 are located within block groups that exceed the
minority average for the county of 11.95 percent. Similarly, 22 of the poor condition bridges
are within block groups that exceed the poverty average for the county of 9.25% percent.
Based on the available conditions data, there is not a disproportionate number of poor-
conditioned bridges in areas with higher concentrations of minority or low-Income populations.
Please note: Some features within an interval may be counted more than once because they’re on a boundary for
Tables 3-10.

Tables 5 and 6 show the number and percentage of bicycle and pedestrian-related crashes in
Franklin County from 2015-2019. Of the total crashes, 19 crashes occurred in high minority
block groups while 23 crashes occurred in high poverty block groups. This information shows
that there is a disproportionate number of bicycle and pedestrian-related crashes occurring in
block groups with a higher population of low-income and minority populations. This may be
expected as the high minority and low-income populations are located in the urbanized areas
where non-motorized transportation is more prevalent.

Tables 7 through 10 identify the number and percentage of roadways with poor or excellent
International Roughness Index (IRI) within minority and low-income population block group
intervals. This information shows that there is not a disproportionate amount of poor condition
pavement in block groups with a higher population of low-income and minority populations.
There is only 4.82% of poor pavement distribution in minority populations and 4.25% poor
pavement distribution in poverty populations. The data does show small mileage numbers for
excellent condition pavement in areas with high minority population. This could mean that a
majority of roadways in these areas are identified as Good or Fair condition. Figures 4 and 5
illustrate low income and minority populations in relation to the Federal Aid System.

BENEFITS & BURDENS: 2023-2026 TRANSPORTATION IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
The Franklin County MPO reviewed transportation projects located in areas that were
determined to be “high minority” or “high in-poverty.” “High minority”, for the purpose of
this analysis, refers to Census block groups that have a concentration of minority persons
that is greater than or equal to the county average of 11.92 percent. “High in-poverty” refers
to Census block groups that have a concentration of low-income persons that is greater than
or equal to the county average of 9.25 percent.
When evaluating the potential benefit or burden of a project, it should be noted that each
type of project has a unique set of impacts and will affect individual populations differently.
For example, maintenance projects tend to cause the least amount of impact on the
population since they typically involve highway resurfacing or repaving work on existing
roadways. Although these projects can cause delayed travel time and transit service, traffic
detours, and work zone noise and debris, the projects are typically shorter in duration and
result in improvements to the functionality of the roadway network by providing smoother
driving surfaces and new roadway markings. While most bridge projects are identified as
either a rehabilitation or replacement, both types of projects can lend itself to significant
traffic detours, traffic delay, and noise. However, the benefits of these types of
improvements result in safer bridge structures, improved roadway conditions and updated
signage.
Capacity projects, which can involve the addition of new lanes to existing roadways, new
roadways to the existing network, or at times the realignment of intersections or
interchanges, in an effort to provide for more traffic mobility. Special attention needs to be
made when planning capacity projects, especially to low-income and minority populations.
Not only can these projects result in right-of-way acquisitions to account for the additional
capacity, but also construction impacts are normally more severe due to longer construction
periods, travel pattern shifts, and delayed travel times among others. The consequences of
the completion of capacity projects can involve the loss of property, increased traffic
volumes, and decreased air quality, while other benefits can include improved transit service
time, decreased travel delay, and safer roadway conditions which will result in improved
quality of life for all residents and users of the roadway system.
On the 2023-2026 Franklin County TIP, the number of projects in minority or low-income
areas is lower than the number of projects located in non-minority and non-low-income
areas. Projects included consist of signalization improvements, a new interchange, bridge
preservation, bridge replacements, and intersection improvements. Figure 4 illustrates 2023-
2026 TIP projects throughout Franklin County.

Prepared by David Juba, Transit Analyst on 7/20/2021 for FY2021 (July 1, 2020 – June 30, 2021).
Agency Profile
Central Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (CPTA), doing business as rabbittransit in York
County, Pennsylvania, provides fixed route transit service in York and Adams, and public shared
ride service in Adams, York, Cumberland, Columbia, Franklin, Montour, Northumberland, Perry,
Snyder and Union Counties. In 2011, York County merged with Adams County to form York
Adams County Transportation Authority. The merger resulted in a board comprised of four
Adams County and five York County representatives. Since 2011, three counties have joined the
authority and five have signed on having CPTA manage the shared ride program. FTA provides
5307 funding to the Central Pennsylvania Transportation Authority.
CPTA operates under the authority of the Pennsylvania Municipal Authorities Act of 1945.
Useful Life Benchmark – Revenue Vehicles
Description
CPTA directly owns and operates rolling stock that operated in the MB DO, CB DO, and DR DO
service groups. Transitions to the DR PT in December 2019 resulted in the entire DR PT fleet
transitioning back to the DR DO classification. As of the end of FY2021, the agency had 290
active rolling stock assets across several vehicle type classifications as broken down in the table
below.

Vehicle Type Type Description Assets
BR BR - Over-the-road Bus 13
BU BU - Bus 25
CU CU - Cutaway 221
MV MV - Minivan 10
VN VN - Van 21
Target Setting & Rationale
In accordance with the agency TAM Plan, CPTA utilizes an aspirational target for rolling stock.
CPTA has defined a target of 10% for 2022, consistent with the aspirational target set for 2021.
The agency decision to utilize an aspirational target was based on the fact that the agency has
been undergoing significant transition in fleet composition over the last several years relative to
both the CNG transition for the heavy duty rolling stock and the right sizing of fleet across the
coordinated counties the Authority has oversight over. The CNG transition is approaching a
conclusion for fixed route (MB), but remains a consideration for the commuter (CB)
replacements in the next several years. Other considerations relative to CNG is the potential
expansion or use for shared ride or fixed route cutaway purposes as fueling capabilities and
range of these units has improved. As the infrastructure is in place and assets have been
replaced, this target has become more realistic vs. aspirational. Within the last several years
CPTA has largely replaced its entire MB DO diesel fleet. However, with the COVID pandemic,
replacement cycles have been slower than usual. This includes the cycles for both lead times for
new vehicles as well as the turn around time for disposal of retired assets.
While the expansion of demand response (DR) service has curbed slightly with the workforce
and vehicle replacement challenges, it remains a consideration and part of the delay of certain
fleet group replacements. This is especially relative to the desire to right-size the demand
response (DR) fleet for CDL and non-CDL purposes to improve CPTA’s hiring capabilities in
consideration of the reduced ridership.
Progress & Challenges
As of the FY2021 report cycle, CPTA revenue assets categories, as a total of all groups, falls
below the 10% aspirational threshold at 8.97% of assets at or past the ULB. This is the first
report year that CPTA has achieved the 10% revenue asset goal.
CPTA saw a significant improvement in the BU – Bus category from FY2020’s reporting. Where
this was previously an area of high past ULB percentage, the BU – Bus category achieved a zero
(0) percent past ULB with the finalization of the fixed route (FR) heavy duty asset replacements.
CPTA also saw improvement in the CU – Cutaway and VN – Van categories as CPTA has replaced

Service Safety Stewardship

various past ULB assets in these pools with more appropriately sized non-CDL assets per the
above concerns.
There are opportunities for improvement in those asset categories with the lowest volumes of
total vehicles. As percentages, these categories appear significant but are low in actual number
of vehicles of the total revenue fleet. These include the BR - Over-the-road Bus, VN – Van, and
MV – Minivan. Of the total fleet, these asset categories only make up forty-four (44) of two
hundred and ninety (290) or 15% of the fleet. The reason for the delay in their replacement has
been shortages in microchips for relevant Ford Transits, specifically for the MV and VN groups.
In relation to the BR issues, CPTA is delaying the replacement of a few of these assets due to
concerns over COVID recovery and the potential reduction in the fleet based on demand for
these services. These BR assets have traditionally been used for commuter services, which have
seen the most dramatic reduction in ridership activity since the first impacts of COVID were felt
in March 2020. CPTA anticipates that once the replacement delays are resolved, and the
determination of right-sizing the commuter fleet is evaluated, the assets will be more
appropriately in line with the 10% target for each of the asset category groups.
Useful Life Benchmark – Non-Revenue Vehicles
Description
CPTA owns and operates an array of non-revenue Automobiles and Trucks and other Rubber
Tire Vehicles. These vehicles are utilized for driver relief and transportation, maintenance work,
and as administrative support assets. CPTA has not identified any equipment in the
classification of maintenance equipment that independently meets the requirements of the
TAM. The below table identifies the types of assets that fall within this category and totals.
Vehicle Type Type Description Assets
EQP Automobiles 19
EQP Trucks and other Rubber Tire Vehicles 4
Target Setting & Rationale
In accordance with the agency TAM Plan, CPTA utilizes an aspirational target of 25% for
equipment. This is largely because the ULB for Automobile and Trucks and other Rubber Tire
Vehicles default ULBs is eight (8) for Automobiles and nineteen (19) for trucks and other rubber
tire vehicles. As CPTA does not desire to adjust default ULB during the first few years of the plan
implementation, it recognizes that support vehicles have historically been held for at least ten
(10) years based on PennDOT Estimated Service Life (ESL) requirements. This would result in
this class of vehicles being held at least two years beyond the default ULB in standard capital
planning.

415 Zarfoss Drive, York, PA 17404 T: 1-800-632-9063 F: 717-848-4853 www.rabbittransit.org
Progress & Challenges
As noted, CPTA identifies that the default ULB of Automobiles is less than the ESL as defined by
PennDOT, who is the primary funding partner for these capital replacements. In accordance
with that minimum, CPTA will tend to hold assets longer than ULB by two years. If consolidating
all EQP, CPTA is not achieving the 25% aspirational target with seven (7) of twenty-three (23)
assets at or past ULB. This is based on a delayed retirement of some of the sedans as
replacements came in from last year. They are anticipated to be disposed in the near-term and
should bring the agency into consistency with this 25% target.
Useful Life Benchmark – Facilities
Description
CPTA operates a collection of administrative, passenger, and parking facilities as necessary to
provide services across the ten (10) counties and to improve passenger access and connectivity.
The below table identifies the classification of facilities operated by CPTA and total per each
group.
Vehicle Type Type Description Assets
FAC Passenger / Parking Facilities 3
FAC Administrative / Maintenance Facilities 4
This list is inclusive of two (2) park and rides, two (2) administrative / maintenance offices, and
two (2) transfer centers. While CPTA-managed counties operate out of regional offices, they are
operated out of county-owned facilities and offices and are not owned or the direct capital
responsibility of CPTA.
Target Setting & Rationale
Facilities are measured differently in accordance with CPTA’s TAM Plan and guidance. They are
measured against the Transit Economic Requirements Model (TERM) scale with any facility
falling below three (3) of five (5) being classified as beyond useful life. At current, CPTA is
fortunate in that the majority of its facilities are new or have recently undergone renovation in
the last decade. At current, CPTA has a realistic goal in accordance with its TAM Plan, of zero (0)
percent.
Progress & Challenges
As identified, CPTA does not have any facility that is imminently approaching a TERM rating at
the ULB requirement. The York Transfer Center is currently under renovation and is anticipated
to be completed during FY2022. The main purpose of the renovation is to address facility design
challenges and to improve safety, rather than meeting the TERM scale requirement. Otherwise
there are no significant facility-related actions going on at this time. Continued annual

assessment will be done to ensure that no unanticipated or major changes occur, but otherwise
this category is achieving the realistic goal at this time.
Factors Impacting Transit Agency’s Transit Asset Management (TAM) Plan
As denoted in the rolling stock category, CPTA’s transition to CNG fleet, specifically among our
BU – Bus vehicle type, has had a negative impact and delayed replacement of vehicles
proximate to lifecycle and ULB. However, in this reporting year the majority of those assets
exceeding ULB in the MB DO category have been replaced, bringing the revenue assets group
into the 10% (ten percent) target. Some of the remaining difficulities in aligning with the ULB
thresholds across the board, have been delay in disposal of assets relative to the COVID
pandemic. This has caused the sale of aged assets to be slower than usual. Nonetheless, CPTA
has been able to finalize disposal of these assets through public sales. Another major factor that
is tied to the pandemic has been the material supply shortages in relation to both parts and
asset replacements. The parts supply chain issues have created delays in repairs and slowed the
agency’s capabilities to add the appropriate mileages to select assets to dispose of them timely.
Additionally, the significant increase in lead time from design to acceptance of new rolling stock
relative to the microchip and other part shortages has created replacement delays as well.
Otherwise the ongoing assessment of CNG for other assets such as cutaways, etc. are ongoing
factors in the replacement cycle delays. All of these items considered, CPTA has been successful
in improving the percentage of fleet within the ULB and SOGR.
Operational factors include the shortage of workforce and CDL operators. This has had an
impact on our fleet capacity and replacement planning, which has resulted in delayed asset
retirements as well. While the desire to replace vehicles with like-size capacity to meet service
need is present, the reality of the job market has caused delays as operational approaches are
discussed and revised. Further, COVID and the unknown after-effectshas added complexity to
this future planning process.

Appendix J
Franklin County Memorandum of Understanding
1
Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
Franklin County Metropolitan Planning Organization (FCMPO)
Procedures for 2023-2026
Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) Revisions
Purpose: This memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the Pennsylvania
Department of Transportation (PennDOT) and the Franklin County Metropolitan
Planning Organization (FCMPO) establishes procedures to be used for
processing revisions to the FY 2023-2026 Transportation Improvement Program.
Background: The TIP is the official transportation improvement program document mandated
by federal statute 23 CFR 450.218 and recognized by FHWA and FTA. The TIP
includes a list of projects to be implemented over a four-year period as well as
all supporting documentation required by federal statute.
The STIP is the official transportation improvement program document mandated
by federal statute 23 CFR 450.218 and recognized by FHWA and FTA. The STIP
includes a list of projects to be implemented over a four-year period as well as all
supporting documentation required by federal statute. The STIP includes regional
TIPs developed by the MPOs, RPOs and PennDOT developed Interstate
Management (IM) Program and other Statewide Programs. Statewide Programs are
coordinated initiatives, projects or funds that are managed by PennDOT’s Central
Office on a statewide basis. Examples of Statewide Programs include, but are not
limited to, the Secretary of Transportation’s Discretionary (Spike), the Major
Bridge Public Private Partnership (MBP3) Program, the Rapid Bridge Replacement
(RBR) Project developed via a Public Private Partnership (P3), Highway Safety
Improvement Program (HSIP) set-a-side, Highway-Rail Grade Crossing Safety
(RRX), Surface Transportation Block Grant Program set-a-side (TAP) funds,
Green-Light-Go (GLG), Automated Red Light Enforcement (ARLE), Multi-Modal
(MTF), Recreational (Rec) Trails, Transportation Infrastructure Investment Fund
(TIIF), Statewide Transit and Keystone Corridor projects. The Interstate
Management Program will remain its own individual program and includes
prioritized statewide Interstate projects. The Commonwealth’s Twelve-Year
Program (TYP), required by state law (Act 120 of 1970), includes the STIP/TIPs in
the first four-year period. The TYP is not covered by Federal statute. Therefore,
this MOU covers revisions only to the STIP/TIP.
Definitions:
● Administrative Modification is a minor revision to a Transportation Improvement
Program (TIP). Amendment is a revision to a TIP that involves a major change to a
2
project included in a TIP.
● Betterment consists of surface treatments/corrections to existing roadway [preferably
within the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation’s (PennDOT’s) right-of-way] to
maintain and bring the infrastructure to current design standards for that classification of
highway. This may involve full depth base repair, shoulder widening, increased lane
widths, correction of super-elevation, as well as, drainage improvements and guide rail
updates.
● Change in Scope is a substantial alteration to the original intent or function of a
programmed project.
● Cooperating Parties include PennDOT, Franklin County MPO, Federal Highway
Administration (FHWA), and Federal Transit Administration (FTA).
● Fiscal Constraint Chart (FCC) is an Excel spreadsheet or a chart generated by the
Multimodal Project Management System (MPMS) that depicts the transfer of funds
● Interstate Management (IM) Program is PennDOT’s four-year listing of statewide
interstate maintenance (non-capacity adding) projects.
● New Project is a project that is not programmed in the current TIP and does not have
previous obligations from a prior TIP.
● Planning Partner is one of the following: MPOs, or RPOs, or the independent County of
Wayne.
● Public Participation Plan (PPP) is a documented broad-based public
involvement process that describes how FCMPO will involve and engage the
public in the transportation planning process to ensure that the concerns of
stakeholders are identified and addressed in the development of transportation
plans and program
● Rapid Bridge Replacement (RBR) Initiative (developed via a Public Private
Partnership – P3) will follow the Statewide Managed Program guidance in the
administration of the program. For example, the RBR Initiative project rollouts,
independent of time intervals, will be considered an amendment on the state’s TIP
(STIP). Placement of RBR projects and or line items on Franklin County’s TIP will be
considered as an administrative action.
● Reserve Line Item holds funds that are not dedicated to a specific project(s) and may be
used to cover cost increases or add a new project or project phase(s).
● Revision is either an Amendment or an Administrative Modification to the TIP.
● Statewide Managed Program (Statewide Program) includes those transportation
improvements or projects that are managed on the STIP, including project selection, at
the PennDOT Central office level, with possible regional Planning Partner input and
solicitation. Examples include but are not limited to Highway Safety Improvement
Program (HSIP), Railroad Crossing Program (RRX), and State Transportation
Alternatives Program (TAP) projects. The Interstate Management Program (IM) will
3
remain its own individual program.
TIP Administration:
The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and the Federal Transit Administration
(FTA) will only authorize projects and approve grants for projects that are programmed in the
current approved TIP. If the FCMPO and/or PennDOT wishes to proceed with a federally
funded project not programmed on the TIP, a revision must be made.
The federal statewide and metropolitan planning regulations contained in 23 CFR § 450
govern the provisions for revisions of the FCMPO TIP. The intent of this federal regulation is to
acknowledge the relative significance, importance, and/or complexity of individual programming
actions. If necessary, 23 CFR § 450.328 permits the use of alternative procedures by the
cooperating parties to effectively manage actions encountered during a given TIP cycle.
Cooperating parties include PennDOT, MPO, FHWA, and FTA. Any alternative procedures
must be agreed upon and documented in the TIP.
TIP revisions must be consistent with Pennsylvania’s Transportation Performance
Management (TPM) requirements, Pennsylvania’s Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP),
and the MPO’s LRTP. In addition, TIP revisions must support Pennsylvania’s Transportation
Performance Measures, the Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP), the Transit Asset
Management (TAM) Plan, the Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP) and Congestion
Management Plan (CMP), as well as PennDOT’s Connects policy. Over the years,
Pennsylvania has utilized a comprehensive planning and programming process that focuses on
collaboration between PennDOT, FHWA, FTA, and MPOs at the county and regional levels.
This approach will be applied to begin implementation of TPM and Performance Based
Planning and Programming (PBPP). PBPP is PennDOT’s ongoing assessment, target setting,
reporting and evaluation of performance data associated with the TIP investment decisions.
This approach ensures that each dollar invested is being directed to meet strategic decisions and
enhances the overall performance of the Commonwealth’s transportation system.
TIP revisions must correspond to the adopted provisions of FCMPO’s Public Participation
Plan (PPP). A PPP is a documented broad-based public involvement process that describes how
the MPO will involve and engage the public in the transportation planning process to ensure that
comments, concerns, or issues of the public and interested parties are identified and addressed in
the development of transportation plans and programs. A reasonable opportunity for public
review and comment shall be provided for significant revisions to the TIP.
All projects within the non-attainment or maintenance area of Franklin County will be
screened for Air Quality significance. PennDOT will coordinate with FCMPO to screen
Statewide Program projects for Air Quality significance. If a revision adds a project, deletes a
4
project, or impacts the schedule or scope of work of an air quality significant project in a
nonattainment or maintenance area, a new air quality conformity determination will be
required, if deemed appropriate by the PennDOT Air Quality Interagency Consultation Group
(ICG). If a new conformity determination is deemed necessary, an amendment to the FCMPO’s
Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) shall also be developed and approved by the MPO.
The modified conformity determination would then be based on the amended LRTP conformity
analysis, and public involvement procedures consistent with the region’s PPP are required.
The federal planning regulations, 23 CFR 450.324(c), define update cycles for the
FCMPO LRTP. If the FCMPO’s LRTP expires because the LRTP has not been updated in
accordance with the planning cycle defined in the federal planning regulations, then the
provisions of this MOU will not be utilized for the FCMPO. During a LRTP expiration, all TIP
revisions that involve projects with federal funds within the FCMPO, where the LRTP
expiration occurred, will be treated as an amendment and require federal approval. There will
be no administrative modifications to projects with any federal funds until the FCMPO LRTP is
in compliance with the federal planning regulations.
TIP Revisions:
In accordance with the federal transportation planning regulations 23 CFR 450 revisions to
the TIP will be handled as an Amendment or an Administrative Modification based on agreed
upon procedures detailed below.
An Amendment is a revision that adds a new project, deletes an existing project, or
involves a major change to an existing project included in the FCMPO’s TIP that:
a. Affects air quality conformity regardless of the cost of the project or the
funding source;
b. Adds a new project, deletes a project that uses federal funds, or federalizes a
project that previously was 100% state and/or locally funded. A new project is a
project that is not programmed in the current TIP and does not have previous
obligations from a prior TIP. (Federally funded Statewide Program projects are
excluded from this provision);
c. Deletes a project that utilizes federal funds, except for projects that were fully
obligated in the previous TIP and no longer require funding. In this case, removal
of the project will be considered an administrative modification.
d. Adds a new phase(s) to an existing project, deletes a project phase(s) or
increases/decreases a project phase(s) that uses federal funds where the revision
exceeds the following thresholds:
i. $2 million (Federally funded Statewide Program projects are excluded
from this provision)
e. Involves a change in the scope of work to a project(s) that would:
5
i. Result in an air quality conformity re-evaluation;
ii. Result in a revised total project estimate that exceeds 50%; or
iii. Results in a change in the scope of work on any federally funded project
that is significant enough to essentially constitute a new project.
Approval by FCMPO is required for Amendments. FCMPO must then initiate PennDOT
Central Office approval using the e-STIP process. An e-STIP submission must include a Fiscal
Constraint Chart (FCC) that clearly summarizes the before, requested adjustments, after changes,
and detailed comments explaining the reason for the adjustment(s), and provides any supporting
information that may have been prepared. The FCC documentation should include any
administrative modification actions that occurred along with or were presented with this action at
the FCMPO meeting. The supporting documentation should include PennDOT Program
Management Committee (PMC) materials, if available.
All revisions associated with an amendment, including any supporting administrative
modifications, should be shown on the same FCC, demonstrating both project and program fiscal
constraint. The identified grouping of projects (the entire action) will require review and/or
approval by the cooperating parties. In the case that a project phase is pushed out of the TIP
period, the FCMPO MPO and PennDOT will demonstrate, through an FCC, fiscal balance of the
subject project phase in the second or third four years of the TYP and/or the respective regional
LRTP.
The initial submission and approval process for the federally funded Statewide Program or
increases/decreases exceeding the thresholds defined in the TIP MOU will be considered an
amendment to the TIP (subsequent placement of these individual projects or line items on the
FCMPO TIP will be considered an administrative modification). In the case of Statewide
Programs, including the Interstate Management Program and other federally funded statewide
programs, approval by the PMC and FHWA is required.
An Administrative Modification is a minor revision to the FCMPO TIP that:
• Adds a new phase(s), deletes a phase(s) or increase/decreases a phase(s) of an existing project
that utilizes federal funds and does not exceed the thresholds established above;
• Adds a project from a funding initiative or line item that utilizes 100 percent state or non-
federal funding;
• Adds a project for emergency relief (ER) program, except those involving substantial
functional, location, or capacity changes;
• Adds a project, with any federal funding source, for immediate emergency repairs to a
highway, bridge or transit project where in consultation with the relevant federal funding
agencies, the parties agree that any delay would put the health, safety, or security of the public
at risk due to damaged infrastructure;
• Draws down or returns funding from an existing TIP reserve line item and does not exceed the
threshold established in the MOU between PennDOT and the FCMPO. A reserve line item

holds funds that are not dedicated to a specific project(s) and may be used to cover cost
increases or add an additional project phase(s) to an existing project;
• Adds federal or state capital funds from low-bid savings, de-obligations, release of
encumbrances, or savings on programmed phases to another programmed project phase or line
item and does not exceed the above thresholds;
• Splits a project into two or more separate projects or combines two or more projects into one
project to facilitate project delivery without a change of scope or type of funding;
• Adds, advances, or adjusts federal funding for a project based on FHWA August Redistribution
based on documented August Redistribution Strategic Approach.
Administrative Modifications do not affect air quality conformity, nor involve a
significant change in the scope of work to a project(s) that would trigger an air quality
conformity reevaluation; do not add a new federally funded project or delete a federally
funded project; do not exceed the threshold established in the MOU between PennDOT and
FCMPO (as detailed in the aforementioned Amendment Section); and do not result in a
change in scope on any federally-funded project that is significant enough to essentially
constitute a new project. (A change in scope is a substantial alteration to the original intent or
function of a programmed project.)
Administrative Modifications do not require federal approval. PennDOT and FCMPO
will work cooperatively to address and respond to any FHWA and/or FTA comment(s). FHWA
and FTA reserve the right to question any administrative action that is not consistent with federal
regulations or with this MOU where federal funds are being used.
All revisions, amendments, and administrative modifications shall be identified, numbered, and
grouped as one action on a FCC demonstrating both project and program fiscal constraint. The
identified grouping of projects (the entire revision action) will require review and/or approval by
the cooperating parties. In the case that a project phase is pushed out of the TIP period, FMCPO
will demonstrate, through an FCC, fiscal balance of the subject project phase in the second or
third years of the TYP and/or FCMPO.
Fiscal Constraint:
Demonstration that STIP/TIP fiscal constraint is maintained takes place through a FCC.
Real time versions of the STIP/TIP are available to FHWA and FTA through PennDOT’s
Multimodal Project Management System (MPMS). All revisions must maintain year-to-year
fiscal constraint 23 CFR 450.218(l) and 23 CFR 450.326(g)(j)&(k) for each of the four years of
the STIP/TIP. All revisions shall account for year of expenditure (YOE) and maintain the
estimated total cost of the project or project phase within the time-period [i.e., fiscal year(s)]
contemplated for completion of the project, which may extend beyond the four years of the
STIP/TIP. The arbitrary reduction of the overall cost of a project, or project phase(s), shall not
be utilized for the advancement of another project.
