Active Transportation Program
• The new State Active Transportation Program(ATP) consolidates:
– Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP)
– Transportation Enhancement Activities (TEA)
– Bicycle Transportation Account (BTA)
– State Safe Routes to School (SR2S)
– Recreational Trails
– Environmental Enhancement and MitigationProgram (EEMP)

Preliminary Draft
ATP Funding Distribution
Three different competitive processes:
• 50% - California Transportation Commission (CTC)awards to projects statewide
• 40% - Metropolitan Planning Organizations (SCAG)award in urban areas with pop. greater than 200,000
• 10% - CTC awards to projects in areas with pop. of200,000 or less
13
Metro Board Action
“Conditionally approve the 2013 Call subjectto later review by the Metro Board ofDirectors once the impacts of State and theSouthern California Association ofGovernments (SCAG) project selectionprocesses are finalized for the ActiveTransportation Program”
14
ATP Programming Process
• Metro no longer programs TA or other ATP funds
– Local agencies must re-apply to SCAG/CTC for ATP funds
• Metro-programmed funds are insufficient to allowprogramming up to the original fund estimate level
– We estimate the shortfall to be approximately $90 million(including prior Calls)
• ATP is a critical resource to bridge the gap
– We want to help to develop successful applications
15
ATP Grant-writing Assistance
• Metro-selected consultant will be available todraft the new ATP application
• Agencies need to affirm they want assistance
• Project sponsors would need only review,approve, and submit application
16
Which Projects Are Eligible For Our Help
• Projects which are ready to construct by 2016and fall into any of these three categories:
1) Funded in 2011 or prior Call, & no MOU/LOA;
2) Funded with TEA in current STIP & have anunallocated balance; or
3) Funded in 2013 Call (Construction funds in FY 2016or Prior)
• Possible 2nd round of assistance for projectsprogrammed/ready FY 2017 - 2019
