NVCOG Environ mental Justice Policy Environmental Justice EJ is the policy and practice that calls for an agency to identify and address disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of its programs, policies, and activities on minority pop ulations and low -income populations.

The concept also calls for identifying strategies and techniques for meaningful engagement of affected populations. This policy arose from a desire to create a comprehensive public outreach strategy for all nineteen towns in the Naugatuck Valley planning region , above and beyond the minimum requirements of state and federal regulation. The adopted Environmental Justice provisions apply to every phase of NVCOG planning decision — making processes, regardless of funding source.

En vironmental justice EJ populations are described in Executive Order , and consist of minority populations, low -income populations, or both. The NVCOG also considered the impacts of transit dependence and the location of elderly residents in its anal ysis, though these factors are considered separately in order to supplement the primary analysis on minority and low -income factors.

The NVCOG EJ Policy uses the idea of EJ Communities to identify areas of particular concern in order to measure performance , and to identify neighborhoods where particular low -impact transportation improvements might have outsized benefit. EJ Communities also enable NVCOG staff to identify potential partners in the public outreach process who may be able to better inform and c onnect these communities with the transportation planning process.

To identify the location of these populations, the NVCOG uses the most recent block group level survey data collected through the American Community Survey and published by the U. Census Bureau. Based on minority population, t he NVCOG found concentrations of racial and ethnic minority populations in the City of Waterbury Map 3 with a few scattered throughout the region.

Many census block groups region -wide have very high proportions of minority populations, with a mean proportion of Region -wide, racial and ethnic mino rities make up Of the region\’s population, The NVCOG defines \”low -income\” residents for the purposes of Environmental Justice as members of households with a median household income less than 1.

For example, the most common household arrangement in the Naugatuck Valley COG is a married couple with a single child.

Low -income populations are concentrated in central Waterbury, however this concentration is not as pronounced as the concentration of t he minority population.

There are also several census block groups in Ansonia and Bristol with a majority of their residents below the NVCOG\’s low -income threshold. Based on the demographic analysis, EJ communities are census block groups where disproportionately large populations of minorities and low -income residents reside.

The NVCOG\’s planning and programming should consider all EJ populations regardless of their concentration to identify and rect ify adverse and disparate impacts on these populations; however, these EJ communities are areas of particular concern due to their concentrated need and have been identified for the location of beneficial projects and program activities.

Projects which may have environmental impacts must study potential impacts in great detail, and propose adjustments to the project or mitigating actions to reduce environmental impacts. Analyses for both programs and projects att empt to identify any population negatively or positively impacted, evaluate whether those populations include EJ populations, connect directly with impacted populations to determine the scope and severity, and id entify and document mitigating actions.

The NVCOG Environmental Justice Policy requires that the MTP conform to the principles of environmental justice by proactively considering the needs of communities and populations of concern, and negative impacts on those communities by otherwise well -intended projects and programs.

As such, an environmental justice analysis of proposed transportation projects in the M TP will be completed and inserted into the final document.

Additionally, a review of the Transportation Improvement Program and related amendments is performed to identify beneficial impacts of federal transportation impacts on EJ communities, and to ensure that they are proportional with the population of these communities.

The City of Waterbury is the largest city in the region and serves as its central city. The region lies mid -way between Hartford to the east, New Haven to the south, Bridgeport to the southwest and Danbury to the west. The Naugatuck Vall ey planning region includes the whole of the Census -defined Waterbury urbanized area, and parts of the Bridgeport -Stamford urbanized area, New Haven urbanized area and Hartford urbanized area.

It has a combined population 6 ACS of 44 7, people. The Naugatuck Valley was the center of American brass manufacturing, producing products such as clocks, buttons, munitions and machines.

In the years following WWII, brass producers moved wes t, and eventually abroad, and plastics replaced brass in many products. At the economic zenith of manufacturing, communities invested the infrastructure needed to support the sector. This infrastructure included public water and sanitary sewers. In the dow ntowns, d ense residential developments provide d work force housing in proximity of the manufacturing plants.

Businesses and manufacturing plants were located in town centers and the downtown areas became the focal points for residents and met all of their essential needs. The Naugatuck Valley economy has diversified significantly since its manufacturing heyday. Healthcare, educational services, retail, and professional and business services now dominate the economy.

Fabricated metal production remains an im portant component of the economy. Despite suburbanization, Waterbury remains the social, cultural, institutional, and em ployment center of the region. The region is a mix of historic urban centers that once supported industrial activities, suburban communities and rural areas. The character of the urban core varies significantly from neighborhood to neighborhood.

Smaller manufacturing centers such as Oakville, Terryville, and Shelton emerged in the 19th century, forming the historic cores of the inner ring municipalities. Following World War II, thes e communities became more suburban in character as urban core residents and young families moved in. Today, the population is highly educated and moderately diverse. In the last decade, the inner ring has seen job growth as companies leave the urban core t o be closer to their workforce.

The municipalities of Cheshire, Plymouth, Seymour, Shelton, Thomaston and Watertown make up the inner ring communities. The traditionally rural outer ring has become more suburban in character over the last two decades.

Fro m to 6, the outer ring population grew at These towns have the lowest population densities, the highest incomes, and the highest proportion of elderly residents. With few local jobs, most outer ring residents commute to jobs in 43 neighboring towns an d cities. The Naugatuck Valley planning region has a long and rich history in transportation.

As an early river port in lower Naugatuck Valley a nd a major manufacturing center of Connecticut, the area has capitalized on multi -modal opportunities for more than years. The area benefits from the confluence of the Housatonic and Naugatuck Rivers. The Housatonic River, a navigable waterway from Lon g Island Sound to Derby, functioned as a means of goods transport. Cargo ships would travel up and down the river and meet the trains at the East Derby Transfer Point.

Before the proliferation of the automobile and expansion of the road network following W orld War II , the Waterbury rail line was the dominant mode of transportation. The rail service provided intercity and inter -regional passenger, as well as freight, connections. The construction of Route 8 in the early s and Interstate 84 during the mid — and late s provided an efficient and convenient means to travel to other areas.

As a result, manufacturing businesses began to relocate to areas with less expensive operating costs and residents also began to shift their travel to other communities f or shopping and social activities. The downtown s declined ; once vibrant communities became under -populated ; vacant factories and industrial sites lay dormant, too polluted to be redeveloped , what are now called b rownfield sites.

The core region was further devastated by severe flooding of Naugatuck River in August of from the unusual occurrence of two named hurricanes, Connie and Diane, passing within proximity of Connecticut within nine days. While neither storm directly struck Connecticut, their com bined impact was immense.

Hurricane Connie produced four -to-six inches of rain across southern New England. The rain saturated the ground and caused river and reservoir water levels to be well above normal. When Hurricane Diane hit the area later the same month, the ground was unable to absorb the additional rain and the rivers and lakes were already above flood stage. Over the two -day period, up to 20 inches of rain fell in parts of New England.

This resulted in arguably the most devastating inland floods to ever hit the state. The heavily industrial and commercial areas bordering the Naugatuck River in Waterbury experienced flooding at the first or second story levels.

The story was the same up and down the Naugatuck River valley from Torrington to Derby. In Bristol the Pequabuck breached its banks and inundated the downtown and Forestville neighborhood. The damage statewide was estimated to have exceeded m illion dollars dollars and many downtowns never fully recovered.

Subsequent to this flood event, six flood control dams were built along the Naugatuck River by the Army Corps of Engineers, including the one in the town of Thomaston at the northern edge of the region, to protect flood prone town centers. In addition, a series of flood control wa lls and levees were constructed to help protect Ansonia and Derby ; channel improvements, a floodwall and a protective dike were built within Waterbury. The areas along the Housatonic River and other rivers in the region do not have the same level of protec tion and significant flooding continues to occur.

Today, residents of the Naugatuck Valley are more mobile than ever. The majority of residents work outside the region, many commuting to New Haven, Hartford, and Fai rfield County. Similarly, over 40 percent of the workforce lives outside the region. This was a faster growth rate than the s, but much slower than the s. Demand for new single family homes in the early s led to explosive growth in outer ring municipalities, which grew The remainder of the region grew a t a slower rate, with a 4.

Since , population growth has stagnated. From to , the number of births dropped by A phenomenon often attribute d to m any families delay ing ha ving children due to economic uncertainty following the recession and rising student loan debt. Additionally, the rate of new home construction has not recovered to its pre levels, particularly in the urban core.

Population Growth in the Nau gatuck Valley, by Municipality: Population Percent Change Geography Ansonia 18, 19, 18, Census, U.

From to , the region is projected to shrink by 1. The urban core is projected to grow at the fastest rate, adding 7, residents between and , a 3. Waterbury, which has a much higher birth rate than the rest of the region, 46 is projected to grow by 7. New h ome construction and in -migration will slow and limit population growth in the outer ring. Middlebury and Oxford are projected to be the two fastest — growing municipalities in the region.

In the inner ring, shrinking household size and a decrease in the pop ulation under 15 will limit growth. The population in the inner ring is expected to decline by 9.

In 6, the region had an estimated persons per square mile which in cludes non -residential land and roads , compared to statewide.

Waterbury, which is extensively developed and has the largest 47 proportion of multi -family units, had the highest population concentration in the region with 3, persons per square mile. Ansonia was a close second with 3, persons per square mile followed by Derby at 2, The towns in the eastern and central portions of the region are partially sewered, allowing greater densities.

Prospect has only a limited number of properties connected to sewer systems through adjacent municipalities. Some new developments are using alternative treatment plants to serve increased densities in unsewered areas. This newer technology requires approval from the Department of Environmental Protection.

As of , , residents were of a minority race or ethnicity, making up This is an increase from , when just From to , the non -Hisp anic white population of urban core communities declined by over 33, This coincided with rapid growth among Hispanics, African Americans, and Asians. Waterbury is a minority -majority city, with Ansonia, Derby, Naugatuck, Seymour, and Bristol have the next highest minority populations.

Between and , inn er ring and outer ring communities saw their minority populations grow at rates of This exceed ed the urban core minority population growth rate of It will remain important for the NVCOG to track these trends for their impacts on Environmental Justice reviews for transportation projects.

Hispanics now make up A majority of Hispanics who live in the region are of Puerto Rican heritage, including nearly 25, who liv e in Waterbury. There was also sizable growth among African Americans, who make up 6.

Asians, the second fastest growing minority group through to Household and Family Structure Household arrangements have changed as the average age of marriage increases, family sizes decrease, and life expectancy increases. Persons living alone, cohabitating couples, married couples without children, and single parent households are becoming more prevalent.

Household structure in the urban core differs significantly from the inner and outer ring communities. Just Income and Poverty There is a large income gap between the urban core and remainder of the region. The Great Recession negatively impacted household and family income throughout the region.

Since , median household income declined in 16 out of 19 municipalities. The highest d rops in household income occurred in the urban core towns of Ansonia, Derby, and Naugatuck. The number of people in poverty increased by In , there were 31, persons living in poverty 7.

By , it had increase d to 52, Poverty increased at a moderate rate in the inner ring and highest in outer ring municipalities and the urban core. Waterbury, which has a poverty rate of Child povert y is a prevalent issue in the urban core, where Child poverty is also strongly correlated with household structure.

Children in single paren t households are 4. During the last ten years the inner ring saw job growth while the urban core lost jobs. Labor Force The labor force is made up of Naugatuck Valley residents over the age of 16 who are either employe d, or are unemployed and looking for work.

From to the state and region experienced a labor force contraction which can be attributed to stagnant job growth, unemployed workers dropping out of the labor force, and a growing number of residents hitting retirement age. In the labor force grew for the first time since and has remained 51 steady. People who had difficulty finding work following the Great Recession are reentering the labor force as the job market improves. Employment As of there were , employed residents living in the region.

This is only 3, more than the number when there were , employed resident s. The number of employed residents decreased every year from to but has rebound ed from to The number of working aged residents is projected to remain stable up to and decline thereafter as the last of the baby boomers retire.

Att racting and retaining young workers will be necessary to replace the growing number of retirees Unemployment From to the region saw the number of unemployed residents more than double from 11, to 24, The jump in unemployment was caused by both job losses and labor force growth.

Unemployment has decreased each year since As of , it stands at 12,, or 5. The labor force contraction unemployed persons that have stopped looking for work is responsible for so me of the drop in unemployment. Despite improvements over the last three years, the unemployment rate remains slightly above state and national averages. Unemployment trends vary by location and age. As of , unemployment is highest in the urban core c ommunities of Waterbury 7.

Due to the collapse of the stock market fr om to , many older workers have continued to work into retirement age. This trend, combined with the lack of new job creation, has led to a disproportionately high unemployment rate among young people. The unemployment rate for residents under the age of 25 is From to , 12, jobs were lost, a decline of 7. The manufacturing, finance and insurance, and construction sectors experienced the sharpest job losses. Some sectors, such as health care and so cial assistance, and educational services, added jobs during the recession.

As of 2 there are , jobs in the region. Despite job losses during the last ten years, Waterbury remains the job center of the region followed by Shelton, Bristol, and Cheshire. As the population shifts to the suburbs, many employers have followed in ord er to be closer to their workforce. From to , the urban core lost over 3, jobs while the inner ring gained over 4, jobs, mostly in Shelton, and Cheshire.

Bristol was the only urban core municipality to gain jobs 1, Outer ring towns wit h good highway access such as Oxford and Middlebury also saw job growth. Health care and social assistance is now the largest job sector followed by government which includes public school teachers. A majority of manufacturing jobs are now located outside of the urban core.

Employment projections from the Connecticut Department of Labor indicate that the health care and social assistance sector will drive job creation up to , largely due to increased demand for health care by the baby boomers. Other sectors projected to add jobs up to are professional and business services, and construction, although the latter is largely depende nt on the housing market. To access more comprehensive demographic, economic, and housing data for the Naugatuck Valley Region see the Naugatuck Valley Regio nal Profile which is published yearly.

Each day, about 2 million trips occur within, into and out of the region. While most of these trips are made in a private vehicle, rail, bus and walking are important ways people move about.

At the same time, the infrastructure is aging and in need of rehabilitation and replacement. However, there is expected to be i nsufficient funding to maintain the current and existing system in a state of good repair , let alone funds to enhance and expand infrastructure. Data trends also indicate that the r egion is not only growing but aging. This suggests a need to strengthen the coordination of human and transportation services. How we buy goods and services is already changing and the pace of that change appears to be accelerating.

More and more, people are relying on on -line shopping to purchase items. This trend is increasing home deliveries, made primarily by smaller trucks, and reducing deliveries to retail centers. Technology may provide some solutions to the transportation issues described above but how travel patterns will change or be affected by technological advances is less than certain. The advent and the future proliferation of autonomous and connected vehicles has the potential to drastically alter travel patterns and how trips are made.

Autonomous vehicles may potentially inc rease road capacity and reduce recurring congestion, but they could also cause an increase in congestion as the number of shared vehicles on the road and the number of empty vehicles picking up riders increases. The benefits for residents who are older or those with a mobility disability include increased travel options, increased mobility and more access. For connected vehicles, deployment of advanced communications systems has the potential to improve safety, reduce crashes, improve driver behavior and re duce congestion.

The principle issues facing the region over the next 20 years are: Ag ing Infrastructure The key and critical elements of the highway system are I, I , Route 8, US Route 6, and Route The interchange was b uilt in s and needs replacement.

Each day about , vehicles move between I , Route 8 and local streets. Several areas have incidences of vehicle crashes. Its interchange with I provides an efficient, high speed connection, but operational problems occur where I merges with I and the Wilbur Cross Parkway Route US Route 6 traverses the region from east to west along its northern tier. While it serves a main travel corridor, it lacks many of the design elements that allow traffic efficiently and provide sufficient capacity Recurring Congestion and Travel Delay Both I and Route 8 experience severe peak hour congestion and excessive travel delay, especially through the interchange of the two highways.

T ypical travel speeds on I are 36 mph and 33 mph during the morning and evening peak hours, respectively. Congestion recurs daily along several arterials throughout the region. Highway Safety The number and severity of vehicle crashes throughout the region is a major concern and i ssue. Through the transportation planning process the location of crashes has been mapped to identify high hazard points.

Analysis of the crash data clearly identifies critical safety needs and actions to address these safety needs. While the WBL is key transportation asset, it is underutilized. This level of service i s not convenient or attractive for commuters. Ridership is only about 1, passengers a day based on a recent on -board ridership count conducted by the NVCOG, but passenger surveys suggest this level of ridership would increase with enhanced service and better connections.

As part of this project, passing sidings would constructed at four locations. The proj ect is scheduled to be fully implemented by the end of Despite these planned enhancements, there has not been a corresponding commitment to increase service and operate additional trains. In addition, the main issues remain: the lack and age of equi pment. Four bus companies operate in the region, including three divisions of CT Transit. The region is also connected to 56 CT fastrak , although by expre ss bus routes and not the dedicated busway.

However, the service is fragmented and routes do not connect urban core areas of the region. Currently, within the region, there is no direct local bus connections between Waterbury, Bristol, and the lower Valley towns. Given fiscal constraints, fares are likely to increase and many areas are unserved or underserved.

ADA Paratransit Service Gaps The fixed -route bus operators are required by federal regulations to provide complementary services to the elderly and p ersons with a mobility impairment that prevents them from using a regular fixed -route bus. The Valley Transit District provides paratransit and dial -a-ride services to the elderly and disabled. However, f unding constraints prevent the VTD from expanding services to meet the identified gaps. Paratransit services are also provided to other members of the GWTD that do not have fixed, local bus routes in their communities.

The challenge facing the region is ensuring stabilized funding to maintain current AD A service levels and expand services to close the gaps in need and demand. Expand and Maintain Multi -use Greenway and Trail Facilities Active transportation corridors provide a valuable alternative to driving and help create livable communities by connect ing them via non -motorized means.

Substantial economic and health benefits are derived from the construction of multi -use greenways and trails. While residents of the region benefit greatly from the development of active transportation facilities, completi on of the planned system of trails faces many challenges, including financial constraints, available rights -of-way, tight geographies, and understanding of potential benefits. Pedestrian Safety Walking is the most basic form of transportation. Most New E ngland towns and cities were initially developed around walking, and many New England towns and cities retain basic elements supportive to pedestrians.

Nearly all people are pedestrians of some form during most trips, be it walking to the parking lot or wa lking a half -hour to work. Data indicate that more people walk and walk to work in the urban core areas of the region.

However, these areas also tend to have disproportionately high numbers of pedestrian -related crashes. Despite the number of pedestrians, these urban areas often lack necessary pedestrian amenities such as clearly marked crosswalks, pedestrian signals, and functional sidewalks.

The primary goal s of the metropolitan transportation plan are to enhance mobility , provide and maintain an efficient multi -modal transportation system that facilitates the movement of people and goods, and minimizing adverse social, economic and environmental impacts.

These actions will expand and increase transportation choice for all and create town centers with mixed -uses in proximity t o high quality transit nodes and link the centers via efficient, convenient transit, as well as, active transportation corridors. Future investment strategies and decisions will embrace advances in technology and plan, design and build stronger, more resil ient infrastructure systems that integrate climate change considerations into transportation plans and strengthen vulnerable infrastructure.

The goals of the MTP remain consistent with past plans and provide a framework for making transportation investmen t decisions.

Environmental Justice To identify and address disproportionately high and adverse human health or environmental effects of its transportation programs, policies, and activities on minority and low -income populations , and identify strategies and techniques for meaningful engagem ent of populations meeting the needs for environmental justice. Avoid, minimize, or mitigate disproportionately high and adverse human health and environmental effects, including social and economic effects, on minority populati ons and low -inc ome populations.

Ensure the full and fair participation by all potentially affected communities in the planning decision -making process. Prevent the denial of, reduction in, or significant delay in the receipt of benefits by minority and low -income populat ions.

Ensure Transparency and Proactive Public Involvement To fully engage residents and stakeholders in identifying planning priorities, developing programs and projects, and publishing final products, and ensure meaningful access to participation in planning and policy decision -making processes for disadvantaged populations in our planning region.

Carry out a proactive public involvement process that promotes region wide citizen participation, minority involvement and equal employment opportunity. Provide timely public notice, effective public involv ement in the development of transportation plans, programs and projects. Publish reports and documents in an electronic format. To effectuate a reduction in transportation -related emissions and a corr esponding improvement in air quality, areas designated as nonattainment or maintenance for a criterion pollutant were required to demonstrate that their transportation plans, programs and projects contributed to the attainment of National Ambient Air Quali ty Standards 62 NAAQS and would not cause a new violation or delay attainment of the NAAQS.

Portions of Connecticut are currently classified as nonattainment or maintenance for Ozone and fine particle mater PM2. The remainder of the state is designated as the Greater Connecticut non -attainment area. The new attainment date for these two areas is July 20, Fine particulate matter is referred to as PM2. It is formed directly as a by -product of combustion, such as smoke or automobile exhaust, or indirectly from chemical reactions in the atmosphere. The annual emis sion budgets for the Connecticut portion of the NY -NJ -CT non -attainment area were determined to be adequate and are used in future analysis years.

Effective October 24, , the Connecticut portion of the multi — state PM2. The end of the maintenance period is Assessment The Connecticut Department of Transportation is responsibl e for conducting the air quality emissions assessments for the metropolitan planning organizations in Connecticut.

The CTDOT uses the statewide travel demand model to estimate vehicle miles of travel for various classes of highways and during various time periods.

The future transportation network includes all planned improvement projects and is based on the complete implementation of the transportation 63 improvement program TIP and the current draft metropolitan transportation plan MTP with a time horizon of to The MOVESa model is used to calculate emissions from transportation travel and establish emissions budgets.

The conformity test requires the emissions from the estimated future transportation system to be less than the EPA -approved MVEBs for all analysis years. Most of the highway traffic is accommodated by 60 miles of expressways. To the west, I provides access to Danbury and the New York metropolitan area. To the east, it connects to I in Hartford and I — 90 in Massachusetts, which links to the Boston metropolitan area.

Within the CNVR, traffic volumes on I peak through Waterbury where average daily traffic ADT i n reached 13 3, vehicles and trucks constituted an estimated 4.

As a limited access expressway, i t connects Interstate 95 in Bridgeport to the Merritt Parkway in Trumbull and I in Waterbury , before terminating in Winchester.

North of the Town of W inchester in the northwest corner of the state, Route 8 continues as a two -lane arterial to the Massachusetts border.

It was constructed in the early s but was not completed until Through the Naugatuck Valley region, the expressway features an al ignment that closely follows the curves of the Naugatuck River, has elevated viaducts through the town centers and has poorly design ed on and off -ramps that lack adequate acceleration and deceleration lanes, provide partial access at some locations, and of ten direct vehicles onto residential streets. Similar traffic volumes are recorded at the interchange of Route 8 and I Truck volu me peaked at an estimated 3.

Interstate serves as an interstate connector between I in Cheshire and Interstate 91 in Meriden. Trucks constituted an estimated 3. The highway network includes 60 miles of Expressway and miles of arterial roads, which facilitate the flow of traffic within and between municipalities. Some of the principal arterial routes in the planning area are State Routes 10, 34, 63, 68, 69, 70, 72, , , , , U. As people move farther away from city centers , they assume longer commutes and increased reliance on the automobile.

NVCOG commuting data show diverse movements across the region with strong ties 70 between the major cities an d employment areas. The length of the average work trip of NVCOG residen ts increased from 21 minutes in to 25 minutes in , and according to the most recent American Community Survey now stands at 28 minutes. Public transit cannot effectively serve low and medium density areas, but employment and shopping centers continue to be placed outside of the ci ty.

More broadly, t here is a large mismatch between the number of employed residents living in the region and the number of jobs in the region. The result is a net export of over 65, worke rs each day to other regions, with many commuting to Hartford, New Haven, Bridgeport, Danbury, and lower Fairfield County.

Cheshire, Middlebury and Shelton are the only municipalities in the region that have more jobs than employed residents. The remaining municipalities have more employed residents than jobs and are net exporters of commuters. As of , just The remaining Waterbury is the most popular commuting destination followed by Bristol, Cheshire and Shelton.

Similarly, nearly half of the people who work in the Naugatuck V alley live outside of the region. The following map illustrates those commuting patterns by linking municipality of residence with municipality of employment and vice versa. Broadly, this map demonstrates the idea that work and home are decentralized. It also outlines regional commuting patterns. Most prominent is the connection of the urbanized areas within and without the region. Bristol, Waterbury, Watertown, Shelton, and the lower valley all are strongly connected.

Beyond the region, Danbury, Torringto n, the New Haven area, the Hartford area, the Bridgeport area, Fairfield County, and the New York metropolitan areas all receive or send workers to and from the region. There is clear north -south movement throughout the region, reflecting Route 8, East -West movements reflect I , and trips into Fairfield County and beyond reflect the highway system and Metro North service along the WBL.

The NVCOG follows a data driven planning process to first profile accidents throughout the region, assess risk, and prioritize location specific actions to maximize limited fiscal resources available for capital improvements. This is a powerful dataset that can shed light on high risk areas within the region. The following heat map s of crashes has been draw n to visualize and locate high hazard areas.

Highway Safety is determined by the interaction be tween drivers, their behavior and the highway infrastructure. The five performance measures for Highway Safety include: 1 the number of fatalities; 2 the rate of fatalities; 3 the number of serious injuries; 4 the rate of serious injuries; and, 5 the number of non -motorized fatalities and serious injuries.

Projects will include: 1. Programmatic highway safety improvements : Proje cts or programs that are conducted regularly throughout the state such as signing and pavement marking programs. Programmatic driver safety activities : Projects or programs that are conducted regularly on an ongoing basis.

Location -specific highway safety projects : This includes roadway safety improvements selected to correct known safety problems at locations with a high frequency or severity of crashes. Number of fatalities 2. Rate of fatalities 3. Number of serious injuries 4. Rate of serious injuries 5.

Number of non -motorized fatalities and non -motorized serious injuries. The CTDOT, upon review of the 5 -year rolling average for each measure, has determined that the targets will be to maintain the current five -year moving average.

NVCOG Safety Statistics Year Number of fatalities Number of serious injuries Number of non -motorized fatalities and non -motorized serious injuries 31 22 20 26 48 33 40 37 43 38 Total 75 Congestion Congestion impedes vehicles, causes motorist delays, decreases safety, and increases fuel consumption and vehicle emissions.

The following measures are meant to identify congestion and its causes. From these analyses, location specific projects and pro grams can be proposed. The following map shows the current ratio of vehicle volume to roadway capacity based on network capacity. Nine percent of the ADT was assumed during the peak hour with a directional split.

Additionally, a peak hour factor of 0. While this growth rate airs on the side of being high, as it was uniformly applied, it proves useful in identify areas where volume is most suscep tible to exceeding capacity. When traffic volume is projected out to , based on past traffic growth rates, these issues are only exacerbated. A s econd measure of congestion is travel time reliability TTR. The reliability of a road segment has been found to be an important factor as to how drivers assess the congestion on their commute.

Regular c ongestion is seen as less offensive than unpredictability. Nowhere is this truer than in the freight industry. PHED is an aggregation of the time road users actually spent on a given segment of roadway above and beyond what would be expected in free flow conditions 85 th percentile. This additional time is then aggregated by the total number of roadway use rs to create a total excessive delay metric.

The benefit of this measure is that it does not just look at the roadway congestion but also the number of users experiencing the congestion. For example, when calculating the excessive delay for a tractor trail er, it is assumed that only one occupant is present. However, when calculated for a car, it assumes that 1. While this work does not add capacity, it does allow the infrastructure to continue functioning as designed.

To help track the state of the highway networ k, FHWA developed pavement and bridge condition measures. The four performance measures for pavement condition include 1 the percent of the Interstate system in good condition , 2 the percent of the Interstate system in poor condition, 3 the percent o f the non -Interstate National Highway System NHS in good condition , and 4 the percent of the non -Interstate NHS in poor condition.

The two performance measures for bridge condition include 1 the percent of NHS bridges in good condition , and 2 the p ercent of NHS bridges in poor condition. Current Condition State 2-year targets 4-year targets Percent in good condition Transportation Asset Management Plan : TAMP acts as a focal point for information about the assets, their management strategies, long -term expenditure forecasts, and busin ess management processes.

The federal code further define s asset management as a strategic and systematic process of operating, maintaining, and improving physical assets, with a focus on engineering and economic analysis based upon quality information, to identify a structured sequence of maintenance, preservation, repair, rehabilitation, and repla cement actions that will achieve and sustain a desired state of good repair over the lifecycle of the assets at minimum practicable cost.

Congestion Steady increases in traffic volume will lead to a greater number of highway miles being congested; coincidentally relia bility will decrease and delay will increase. When the above discussed indicators are looked at together, the section of Route 6 in Bristol approaching the Farmington town line, I east of Waterbury, and Route 69 from south of Waterbury border to roughly Beach Road stand out across all three measures.

Recent and ongoing projects in along Route 6 and I may ameliorate these sections of roadway; however no major work is currently underway to address the issues along Route Throughout the state , bridge condition is improving with indications that it will continue to improve into the future. Limited funding means that benefits must also be shared across a broad base of users.

By embracing an assortment of measures NVCOG hopes to identify projects and problem areas that will benefit the greatest proportion of the community. In addition, CT fastrak routes extend to Bristol, Cheshire and Waterbury from New Britain that provide a connection to Hartford via the dedicated busway. These routes take advantage of high speed connections afforded on regional expressways. Before the opening of the CT fastrak busway, these express routes would follow the expressways directly into downtown Hartford.

Today, they access the busway in New Britain to complete the trip to Hartford. In addition, a limited -stop bus route was initiated in between Torrington and Waterbury with stops in Thomaston. Commuter rail services are operat ed along the Waterbury branch of the New Haven main rail line by the Metro North Railroad under contract to the State of Connecticut, which owns the r ail lines.

Only the CT transit -Waterbury system provides coverage wholly within the region and is centered on Waterbury. CT transit -New Haven operates 21 local bus routes The system operates using a radial system with most routes begin ning and ending at the green in downtown New Haven, traveling outward from the city center on major roadways.

Two routes extend into the region; one serving the lower Valley towns of Derby, Ansonia and Seymour and one connecting downtown New Haven to downt own Waterbury. The GBT system o perates primarily within greater Bridgeport area. Three routes extend in the lower Valley area, providing service to the corporate office districts in Shelton as well as the Derby -Shelton rail station. The express bus routes are operated by CT transit -Hartf ord. Although a substantial portion of the region is covered by local bus service, the operations are fragmented with gaps between the urban core areas.

This results in extensive unserved and under — served areas. There are currently no connections between Waterbury and the lower Valley towns nor between Waterbury and Bristol.

The tripper 3 routes operate during the peak hours only in Waterbury and the surrounding communities. During peak service 36 vehicles are in operation.

Annual re venue miles are 1,, and hours are 92, The passengers per revenue mile in was 2. Since 87 Waterbury has implemented several service changes including the addition of late night service and holiday service.

The system operates using a pulse a timed transfer between multiple routes at or near the Waterbury Green in downtown Waterbury. There are multiple bus stops located around and adjacent to the Waterbury Green on East Main Street for eastbound routes and on West Main Streets for westbound routes. Most routes pulse on the half hour or on the hour. The network also lacks rider amenities such as transit shelters and real -time bus tracking.

There have been several operational changes to service within the last five to six years including the addition of evening service and holiday service. In service was exte nded from PM to midnight on many routes through a pilot program funded by area colleges with a UPass program. Recent capital improvements include a new maintenance facility and new fare system. The new maintenance facility is located at Frost Bridge Road in Watertown, approximately a mile and a quarter away from the former facility.

Th e new fareboxes include automatic vehicle location and automatic passenger counters. The study evaluat ed options for the location of the bus pulse point and opportunities for improved service within existing resources.

The WATS also identified the costs of expan ding the system to fully meet the needs of the residents of the service area, particularly with re spect to providing high quality, acceptable frequency service.

These past few weeks we have been working with a Hamden company who is very interested to moving to the Naugatuck Industrial Park. We have showed two separate buildings, and they have decided on the second building we showed, and they are continuing their due diligence. I am confident that this company will be in Naugatuck very soon.

We continue to work on our downtown. We have helped several businesses to bring their employees downtown. As you may know the Town has decided to make lower Church Street one way, and since that occurred it seems to be an excellent idea, and motorists have had nearly no trouble.

Parking is on both sides of the street. One of our largest properties is on New Haven Road, formally known as the Hershey property. We have for the last few years worked to bring something to that excellent property. Last year we worked diligently with a Texas company that wanted to come to Naugatuck, on the Hershey property. They liked the property very much and its proximity to Route 8, to get their product to the South, and to the North.

We worked hard on that project, but the two large companies could not come to an agreement. After that possibility fell through, we have worked with a trucking company.

There seems to be an issue again between two large companies. I am hopeful that we can get all to the table and finally get a project on that property. We continue to work on our transit-oriented development on Parcel B, and the Port of Naugatuck.

Naugatuck Chamber Connection: October

Based on these analyses, a program of transportation improvement projects is recommended. Future transportation investments reflect reasonably expected fundin g resources.

Federal regulations, as provided in Title 23 Code of Federal Regulations PartSubpart C and applicable federal acts, stipulate a planning process that is continuous, cooperative a nd comprehensive.

The metropolitan transportation 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download process is conducted in accordance with federal regulations. The new organization consolidated the hszel of the former Council of Governments of the Central Naugatuck Valley and the Valley Council of Governments. The merger was accomplished by municipal legislative action and legal assignment of the powers, assets and functions by the respective COGs to the NVCOG.

Wveefforts were undertaken to re -designate the GBVMPO by re -aligning the metropolitan planning area boundaries to coincide with t he state -defined planning region boundaries. The process to re — designate the MPOs anugatuck with federal regulations. The CNVMPO policy board oversees the regional transport ation planning and capital programs for the planning area, and prepares and maintains an unified planning work nauggatuck UPWPa short range transportation improvement program TIPa metropolitan transportation Plan MTP and determines the conformity of its transportation improvement projects, plans and program to attainment of air quality goals.

The multi -task planning program includes: data collection and analysis; multi -modal transportation planning; program corel pdf free free download and administration; technical assistance; and program implementation. Federal transportation planning regulations, rownload ame my microsoft office 2010 icons are blank free download, also stipulate who selects projects under the various funding categories.

The MTP identifies transportation deficiencies, recommends improvements, and advances priority transportation projects in cooperation with the Naugwtuck, municipal officials, other state agencies, stakeholder organizat ions and interested residents. The MTP must consider baugatuck entire range of transportation choices and modes. To effectuate a reduction in tr ansportation -related emissions and a corresponding improvement in air quality, pinnacle studio 17 ultimate free download with crack free download designated as naugattuck -attainment for a criterion pollutant were required to demonstrate that their transportation plans, programs and frre contributed downloas the attainment of National Ambient Air Quality Standards NAAQS and would not cause a new violation or delay attainment of the NAAQS.

This naugaruck is referred to as Air Quality Conformity. The results of the modeling are estimates of t ransportation -related emissions that are expected to be generated after constructing all regionally significant transportation improvements. The air quality conformity analysis for this plan can be found in section 3. The transportation planning and project implementation process conducted by the NVCOG is outlined in the diagram below. Therefore, federal certification of its transportation planni ng process is not required.

These agreements сайт autodesk inventor 2017 icons free download хватает mutual responsibilities in carrying out the metropolitan planning process. The MOU specifies 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download planning participants, roles, and responsibilities and designates the Greater Bridgeport Regional Council and the Valley Council of Governments as the transportation planning agencies for their respe ctive regions. It was updated and revised in An updated and revised MOU is being developed at the time 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download this MTP February 9 and is expected to be executed by the adoption of the plan.

The purpose of the MOU is to define the method for distributing metropolitan planning funds and the responsibilities of each COG for carrying out naugztuck respective transportation planning program and coordinating with the other partner COGs. The MOU was executed in May It establishes a mechanism for voluntary coordination, cooperation and consultation among the organizations. The inte 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download is to cooperate in efforts to achieve general consistency of planning products, analyses and tools through informal communication and document exchange.

It was executed in September The MOU and letter of understanding w as signed in April idioms Naugaruck MAP Forum was established in to cooperate and coordinate transportation planning activities in the New York metropolitan area. Because of the size, complexities and interdependence of the New York -New Jersey -Connecticut -Pennsylvania region, a major transportation investment in one part посетить страницу источник the area can and will have implications throughout the region.

It is imperative to be properly informed about these projects and fully understand how they will affect travel into, 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download of and through the component metropolitan planning 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download.

The networking capabilities of the MAP Forum as it relates to federally -mandated products and analyses is a critical function of the group.

The total work force in the region is 9,, with the largest shares of jobs in the office and administrative support, sales, food, education, and financial sectors. Transportation Systems The transportation system of the Four State Metropolitan Region is large and complex, 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download together by a network of highways, rail lines, bridges, tunnels, and other infrastructure.

However, the system as a whole is aging and in need of renewal, As the largest metropolitan area in the nation, the four state regi on is traversed by numerous major limited access highways and rail lines. Note: Lehigh Valley in Pennsylvania was not included in the model. Http://replace.me/13866.txt majority of trips are made within and are internal to the same area.

These three sets of inter downloa trips also feature significant proportions of transit trips. The core of the four state region is notable for its enormous mass transit system. New York City is served by an intensively used subway and bus sys tem, and its more immediate suburban neighbors are served by commuter rail and smaller state — and county -operated bus systems.

Inter -city travel is provided by Amtrak, as well as long -haul buses 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download air travel facilities. The region is the busiest airspace in the United States, serving over million passengers annually Fleming, Susan. Kennedy International Airport. While passenger transport is critical, these important projects are not limited to the movement of people.

In such a densely populated and economically active regionfreight transportation is critical as well, and there are several major projects dedicated to freight in hazdl region. The planning factors and how the MTP addresses each of the factors are as follows: 1.

Support the economic vitality of the metropolitan area, especially by enabling global competitiveness, baugatuck, and efficiency. Increase the safety of the transportation system downlosd motorized and non -motorized users. Increase the fee of the transportati on system for motorized and non -motorized users.

Increase the accessibility naubatuck mobility of dpwnload and f or freight. Protect and enhance the environment, promote ene rgy conservation, improve haxel quality of life, and promote consistency between transportation improvements and State and local planned naugatufk and economic development patterns. Enhance the integration and connectivity of the transportation system, across and between modes, for people and freight.

Promote efficient system management sve operation. Emphasize the preservation of the existing transportation s yst em. Improve the resiliency and reliability of нажмите для продолжения transportation system and reduce or mitigate stormwater impacts of читать далее transportation.

Enhance travel and tourism. The federal Moving Ahead f or Progress in the 21st Century Act MAP integrated many of 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download practices into statute by putting requirements on states and MPOs to include performance management in their planning documents. Performance management and performance -based planning and programming increases the accountability and transparency of the Federal -aid Program and offers a framework to страница improved investment decisi on -making by focusing on performance outcomes for national transportation goals.

The FHWA and FTA established national downlod measures in areas of safety, infrastructure condition, congestion, system reliability, pollution emissions, freight movement, transit safety and transit state of good repair. Highway Safety Highway Safety is determined больше информации the interaction be tween drivers, their behavior and the highway infrastructure. The five 06770 performance dosnload for Highway Safety include: 1.

The number of fatalities; 2. The rate of fatalities; dwnload. The number of serious injuries; 4. The rate of serious injuries; and, 5. The number of non это andy emulator download for windows 10 гонят fatalities and serious injuries. The CTDOT, upon review of the 5 -year rolling average for each measure, has determined that the targets will be to maintain the current five year moving average. The targets were also incorporated in the Highway Safety Improvement Program annual report.

Performance targets will be 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download for one or more asset classes for the following asset categories : Rolling Stock, Equipment, Facilities and Guideway Infrastructure. Avve CTDOT identified asset classes for its transit service providers specific to each of the four assets categories in the three public transportation downloqd of rail, bus and ferry.

The percentage of assets beyond the useful life benchmark is the performance measure set for both the categories of Sownload Stock and Посетить страницу. The performance measure is the percentage of facilities rated below 3 on the 5 -point scale, wi th a 3 rated as SGR.

The category of facilities has two classes which are passenger and parking stations and administrative and maintenance buildings. Under FTA reporting requirements, the guideway Infrastructure category is specific only to rail. The perf ormance measure set 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download FTA is the percentage of guideway with a performance restrictionwhic h is interpreted as slow zones.

A narrative report describing strategies for setting targets and progress on the targets will accompany targets starting To meet this requirement, the CTDOT coordinated with transit providers in Connecticut to develop SGR performance target in the four asset categories by the deadline of January 1,as set in the federal rules.

The target is the percentage of vehicles that meet or exceed their ULB. The target is the 4 hazel ave naugatuck ct 06770 free download of facilities download free vegas pro sony gezginler indir 11 have a TERM Transit Economic Requirements Model condition rating of less than 3 on a 1 -to-5 scale, with 1 indicating a poor condition and 5 an excellent conditi on.

The target is the percentage of guideway operating under a speed restriction. The following tables provides a summary of the performance targets avf asset class and lists the current percentage meeting or exceeding the metric and the anticipated percentage at the end of for Tier I systems.
