Proposition 1 Formula Distribution Proposal for FY 2015
Proposed Proposition 1 Funding Distribution
Assumptions:
$1.4 billion total funding in FY 2015
All funds must be formula allocated
All districts and MPOs will receive some funding
2
Basic Tenants of Distribution Approach:
Funds should be used to address state’s four goals:
– Safety
– Maintenance
– Congestion
– Connectivity Funds should be distributed in proportion to
state’s $5 billion in additional annual funding needs
– $3 billion for Congestion/Connectivity
– $1 billion for Maintenance
– $1 billion for Energy Impacts Target initial projects that can proceed in FY
2015
DRAFT Preliminary Concept
Proposition 1 Formula Distribution Proposal for FY 2015
Preliminary Proposal
60% (3/5ths) of the funds to be distributed for Congestion/Connectivity
– Portion to MPOs using Category 2 Formula
– Portion to Regional Corridors using Category 11 Formula and aggregated by TxDOT Regions
20% (1/5th) of the funds to be distributed to TxDOT Districts for Maintenance Needs using Category 1 Formula
20% (1/5th) of the funds to be distributed for TxDOT Districts for Energy Impacts using an Energy Sector formula established in HB 1025/SB 1747
3DRAFT Preliminary Concept
Proposition 1 Formula Distribution Proposal for FY 2015
60% (3/5ths) of the funds to be distributed for Congestion/ConnectivityPortion to MPOs using Category 2 Formula Distributed to Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) using the
Category 2 Formula published in the 2015 Unified Transportation Program (UTP) that considers factors such as:
― Total amount of travel by cars and trucks (vehicle miles of travel)
― Population (total and % below poverty level)
― Mileage of state highway system
― Congestion
― Crashes Category Allocates 87% to Large MPOs (TMAs) and 13% to Small MPOs
(non-TMAs)
Projects selected and ranked by MPOs in consultation with local TxDOT districts, who may recommend project priorities

Proposition 1 Formula Distribution Proposal for FY 2015
60% (3/5ths) of the funds to be distributed for Congestion/ConnectivityPortion distributed for Regional Corridors
Based on Category 11 District Discretionary formula published in the 2015 Unified Transportation Program with funds being aggregated by TxDOT Region.
Distribution in Category 4 of the UTP by region based on total amount of travel by cars and trucks and highway system mileage
Projects to be ranked and selected by Commission with goal of improving regional connectivity along strategic corridors in rural areas of the state

and Districts
6DRAFT Preliminary Concept
Proposition 1 Formula Distribution Proposal for FY 2015
20% (1/5th) of the funds for Energy Impacts
$280 million to be distributed to Energy Sector regions to address impacts of increased oil and gas production following the formula established in HB 1025/SB 1747 that considers the following factors:
― Safety
― Roadway Conditions
― Roadway Characteristics
― Traffic/Trucks/Oversize Permits Commission will distribute funds within Category 12 of the UTP Projects to be ranked and selected by TxDOT Districts in consultation with
TxDOT Maintenance and Bridge Divisions. Goals include:
― Enhancing bridge and roadway safety in energy impacted areas
― Improving congestion due to energy related activities
