Tri-Valley Transportation Council │ 2020 Nexus Fee Update Study <br />August 2021 │ Final i <br /> <br />EXECUTIVE SUMMARY <br />Completed and adopted in early 2008, the Tri-Valley Transportation Council (TVTC) Nexus Study: Fee <br />Update (“2008 Nexus Study”) identified 22 projects that the TVTC elected for eligibility to receive funding <br />from the Tri-Valley Transportation Development Fee (TVTDF). The first 11 projects (List A, Table 13) were <br />adopted into the original program in 1995. The second set of 11 (List B, Table 13), were new projects that <br />were included in the 2008 Nexus Study. The travel demand modeling documented in the 2008 Nexus Study <br />projected that these projects would reduce the congestion created by new development within the Tri- <br />Valley. <br />Since 2008, there have been changes in the funding, planning and traffic conditions under which the TVTDF <br />was originally developed. In addition, many of the 27 original projects have been completed and the TVTC <br />has identified 23 new projects (List C, Table 14) to be considered. Based on these factors an updated nexus <br />study is needed to support updates to the TVTDF. <br />FORECAST GROWTH <br />New development within the Tri-Valley is forecast to add 33,312 household and 63,947 jobs between 2018 <br />and 2040. This growth will produce an increase of 57,596 average AM/PM peak hour trips. <br />PROJECT BENEFITS <br />Based on forecast projection, the vehicle hour of delay is expected to increase by 60 percent during the <br />AM and 88 percent during the PM peak. With the construction remaining improvement projects, this delay <br />is expected to decrease by 15 percent during the AM peak and 23 percent during the PM peak when <br />compared to the 2040 No-Build Scenario. In addition, these projects will result in other benefits to the Tri- <br />Valley Area including improving roadway safety, improving roadway operations, and increasing bicycle <br />ridership. <br />Figure E-1: Future Build vs No Build Scenario Vehicle Hours of Delay (VHD) <br /> <br />24,718 <br />15,613 <br />39,570 <br />29,376 <br />35,852 <br />25,813 <br />0 <br />5,000 <br />10,000 <br />15,000 <br />20,000 <br />25,000 <br />30,000 <br />35,000 <br />40,000 <br />45,000 <br />Morning Peak Hour Evening Peak HourVehicle Hours of Delay (VHD)2020 2040 No-Build 2040 Build
