Strategic Capacity (Roadway Expansion) Definition: A roadway project that adds thru-lane capacity (described as a Regional Mobility project under Strategic Capacity Enhancements in the TPP). Projects must be located on a non -freeway principal arterial or A -minor arterial functionally classified roadway, consistent with the latest TAB approved functional classification map. However, A -minor connectors cannot be expanded with new thru-lane capacity with these federal funds per regional policy. Examples of Roadway Expansion Projects: • New roadways • Two-lane to four -lane expansions • Other thru-lane expansions (excludes additions of a continuous center turn lane) • Four -lane to six -lane expansions • New interchanges with or without associated frontage roads • Expanded interchanges with either new ramp movements or added thru lanes • New bridges, overpasses and underpasses Scoring: Criteria and Measures Points % of Total Points 1. 210 80 Role in the Regional Transportation System and Economy Measure A - Congestion within Project Area, Level of Adjacent Congestion, or Principal Arterial Intersection Conversion Study Priorities Measure B - Connection to Total Jobs, Manufacturing/Distribution 50 Jobs, and Students Measure C - Regional Truck Corridor Study Tiers 80 2.
