One of the responsibilities of the MPO is the annual preparation of a Transportation Improvement Program with annual element (TIP/AE). Preparation of this program has been a cooperative effort by members of our department, Mr. Edgar Chance and Mr. Coy Biggs of Lubbock County, and Messrs. Jim Bertram, Denzel Percifull, Don Jennings, Bill McDaniel, and John Wilson of the City of Lubbock. The TIP/AE is an annual listing of priority projects for a five - year period. The annual element of this program shows the year considered likely to be implemented during the period of September 1, 1980 to August 31, 1981. Any project expected to be implemented within the time period must be a part of the annual element in order to be eligible for Federal funds. Funding amounts shown for.transit items do not express" a commitment for expenditure of funds, but establishes fund eligibility for transit projects. Mr. Larry J. Cunningham VZ -R+ z• d7 2.

Five of the projects were for the installation of new traffic signals. Two of the projects were for the improvement and modern- ization of existing traffic signals. One project was for improvement and modernization of five signals along University Avenue to provide an interconnected signal system. Two projects provided for the revision of existing streets to provide for more efficient traffic movement. One project concerned energy conservation, particularily in regard to encouraging ride sharing. The last three projects were Engineering Studies. One study was for the purpose of studying street segment capacities along three arterials, one study involved intersection capacities at selected intersections and the third study involved.a consideration of alternatives to eliminate major alignment. and railroad crossing problems at the intersection of East 34th Street and Quirt Avenue.

Revision of existing streets Guava Avenue at 4th Street Complete Quirt Avenue from 50th Street To be carried over to FY 1981 TIP to 52nd Street Energy Conservation This task was set up to encourage ride sharing. It was revised'to provide for a vehicle occupancy survey. This survey.will be completed by September 1980 and will'be used as part of the monitoring process for development of an Energy Conservation Plan. Engineering Studies Street Segment Capacity Study of Grade Separation or Interchange Alternatives at East 34th Street and Quirt Avenue Intersection Capacity, This project will -be carried over to the FY 1981 TIP Complete This study was revised to permit a study of the feasibility.of in- stalling a digital traffic computer for controlling the Lubbock Traffic Signal system. To be carried over to the FY 1981 TIP. Eight of the TSM projects in the annual element of the.FY 1980 TIP are expected to be complete or underway by September 1,"'1980. Five of the projects will be carried over to the next fiscal year and one project will be dropped from the annual element. 2. July, 1980 } Actions taken on TSM Projects in the FY 1980 TIP/AE Transit Section Section 5 Operating Assistance Grant (FY 1979) The Lubbock Transit Department has received $428,000 (Grant TX-05-4050) in operating assistance for FY 1979. Section 5 Operating Assistance Grant (Amendment FY 1979) The Lubbock Transit Department has requested payment in the amount of $26,447 (Grant'TX-05-4050-01) under this amendment. These funds have not yet been received. Section 5 Capital Improvement Grant (FY 1979) Section-5-Capital Improvement Grant (Amendment FY 1979) Section 5 Capital Improvement Grant (FY 1980) Phase II All of the above capital improvement grants have been incor- porated into one project (TX-05-0039-02). Procurement of equipment under this project has begun but will not be completed until late in 1981. The Lubbock Transit Department has received $264,123 to date through this grant application. Section 5 Operating Assistance Grant (FY 1980) The Lubbock Transit Department has received $380,935.25 (Grant TX-05-4085) in operating assistance for FY 1980. Section 5 Operating Assistance Grant (FY 1981) Payment under this grant has been requested (TX-05-4101) but has not yet been processed by UMTA. July, 19b0 ELDERLY b HANDICAPPED' In accordance with regulations promulgated through Section 504 of the rehabilitation act, the City developed and subsequently submitted a Transition Plan to UMTA Regional Offices in November of•1979. That document describes how Lubbock's Citibus public transportation system will reach accessibility standards by September 2, 1980 when eighteen lift equipped buses will replace various inaccessible vehicles now in service. While the new buses will technically fulfill federal accessibility requirements, (I fleet lift equipped), it is felt that there are many other special transportation needs among this affected class which cannot be met by the current fixed route transit system. Due primarily to this community perception (which was previously demonstrated through the CFIT transportation system), the City of Lubbock has ordered two lift equipped vans to be placed in the special demand -response service for individuals with various handicaps. The City is confident that with three vehicles a more efficient and viable system can be obtained.
