2019 FTIP Development - May through September 2018Top of Page
2019 FTIP
BCAG is required to prepare a Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) every two years. The BCAG Board is scheduled to adopt the new 2019 FTIP at the August 23, 2018 Board meeting.
The purpose of the FTIP is to identify all transportation-related projects that require federal funding or other approval by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) or the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The 2019 FTIP will cover the next four fiscal years (FFY 18/19, 19/20, 20/21 and 21/22). The FTIP also identifies all non-federal, regionally significant projects for information and air quality emissions modeling purposes. The FTIP indicates the area's short-term plan for use of federal dollars and other resources for the maintenance, operation, and improvement of the transportation system and the achievement of federal air quality standards over the next four federal fiscal years.
Projects in the 2018/19 fiscal year and beyond will likely carry forward into the 2019 FTIP as well as the projects recently adopted in the 2018 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The typical funding programs associated with the FTIP include the STIP, State Highways Operations and Protection Program (Caltrans SHOPP), Highway Bridge Program (Local Bridge Program), Federal Transit Administration Programs (Transit), Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Program (CMAQ) and Active Transportation Program (ATP).
A draft 2019 FTIP document including an Air Quality Conformity Analysis and Determination will be prepared and posted online once completed.

Performance Measures for the 2017 FTIPTop of Page
PUBLIC NOTICE - MAY 21, 2018: Performance Measures Language for 2017 FTIP Amendments
The 2012 federal transportation authorization legislation, ‘Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century’ (MAP-21) established new requirements for performance management and reporting to ensure the most efficient investment of Federal transportation funds. To incorporate the new federal performance requirements into the Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP), BCAG is required to show (1) that the FTIP “makes progress towards achieving [the region’s] performance targets” and (2) that the FTIP includes, “to the maximum extent practicable, a description of the anticipated effect of the FTIP towards achieving the performance targets.”
The projects contained within Amendment No. 9 have been developed in accordance with the applicable provisions and requirements of 23 CFR Part 450 and are expected to support the achievement of these targets. These targets will be achieved through the implementation of investment priorities through the programming of transportation projects in the 2017 FTIP, this FTIP Amendment, and subsequent FTIP Amendments and Administrative Modifications.
The State Route 70 Projects contained in Amendment 9 are funded with SHOPP Safety funds and STIP funds to address the fatalities along the corridor. Performance Measure 1 - "Safety" is being met by a reduction in fatalities as a result of the projects.

This amendment adds State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funds with State Highway Operations and Protection Program (SHOPP) funds. This project is located near Oroville from 0.1 mile south of Palermo Rd to Cox Lane on State Route 70. The scope of the project is to widen for a 4-lane highway with a two-way left turn lane, standard shoulders, and provide a roadside clear recovery zone. This amendment augments the $36,860,000 in SHOPP funds with a revised total project cost to $50,885,000 with construction programmed in the 2020/2021 fiscal year.
- (EXISTING FTIP PROJECT) SR 70 Segment 3 Project – East Gridley Rd to Butte/Yuba County Line– The purpose of this amendment is to amend the programming funding for the project as approved by the California Transportation Commission. This amendment adds State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) funds with State Highway Operations and Protection Program (SHOPP) funds. This project is located near Oroville from the Yuba County Line to south of East Gridley Road/Stimpson Rd; also in Yuba County on SR 70 from post mile 25.7 to post mile 25.8. The scope of the project is to widen for a 4-lane highway with a two-way left turn lane and standard shoulders. This amendment augments the $44,068,000 in SHOPP funds with a revised total project cost to $65,868,000 with construction programmed in the 2021/2022 fiscal year.
The amended projects, as listed above, exist in the current 2016 Regional Transportation Plan / Sustainable Communities Strategy (RTP/SCS) and are non-exempt from regional emissions analysis. The amendment for each project does not reflect a change in the design concept and scope of the project or the conformity analysis years as assumed for the regional emissions analysis of the currently conforming RTP and FTIP. The previous emissions analysis is consistent with the requirements of 40 CFR 93.118 and 93.119, as applicable. This amendment, meets all applicable transportation planning requirements per 23 CFR Part 450 (financial constraint, public involvement and consistency with the RTP). Allocating funds to these projects will not delay the implementation of projects in the 2016 RTP/SCS which are necessary to achieve the highway and transportation system envisioned by the plan. BCAG does not have any Transportation Control Measures in the State Implementation Plan (SIP) and therefore the project does not interfere with any TCMs.

2017 FTIP DEVELOPMENT (May through August 2016)Top of Page
BCAG is required to prepare a Federal Transportation Improvement Program (FTIP) every two years. The BCAG Board is scheduled to adopt the new 2017 FTIP at the August 25, 2016 Board meeting.
The purpose of the FTIP is to identify all transportation-related projects that require federal funding or other approval by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) or the Federal Transit Administration (FTA). The 2017 FTIP will cover the next four fiscal years (FFY 16/17, 17/18, 18/19 and 19/20). The FTIP also identifies all non-federal, regionally significant projects for information and air quality emissions modeling purposes. The FTIP indicates the area's short-term plan for use of federal dollars and other resources for the maintenance, operation, and improvement of the transportation system and the achievement of federal air quality standards over the next four federal fiscal years.
Projects in the 2016/17 fiscal year and beyond will likely carry forward into the 2017 FTIP as well as the projects recently adopted in the 2016 State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP). The typical funding programs associated with the FTIP include the STIP, State Highways Operations and Protection Program (Caltrans SHOPP), Highway Bridge Program (Local Bridge Program), Federal Transit Administration Programs (Transit), Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality Program (CMAQ) and Active Transportation Program (ATP).
A draft 2017 FTIP document including an Air Quality Conformity Analysis and Determination was presented at the July BCAG Transportation Advisory Committee and posted online as well. All matters concerning the development of the FTIP will be posted at this web page.
