DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION

Federal Highway Administration


Participation in the Transportation Technology Innovation and 
Demonstration Program

AGENCY: Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), United States Department 
of Transportation (U.S. DOT).

ACTION: Notice; request for expression of consent to participate.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: As authorized by section 5508 of the Safe, Accountable, 
Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users 
(SAFETEA-LU), the U.S. DOT/FHWA is interested in working with eligible 
State and local governments and one or more private sector partners to 
build upon the Intelligent Transportation Infrastructure Program (ITIP) 
that began under the provisions of section 5117(b)(3) of the 
Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21). The SAFETEA-LU 
provides for the extension and further expansion of the ITIP program 
under the Transportation Technology Innovation and Demonstration 
Program (TTID), a new 2-part program that would advance the deployment 
of an operational intelligent transportation infrastructure system, 
through measurement of various transportation system parameters, to 
simultaneously aid in local transportation planning and analysis 
activities, while also supporting national monitoring of traffic 
congestion levels. The purpose of this program is threefold: Addressing 
national, local, and commercial data needs through enhancement of 
surveillance and data management capabilities in major metropolitan 
areas. This involves integration of data from existing surveillance 
infrastructure, and strategic deployment of supplemental surveillance 
infrastructure to support the provision of both real-time and archived 
roadway system performance data. At the national level, the goal is to 
develop an ability to measure the operating performance of the roadway 
system across the nation. Made available locally, such roadway system 
performance data can be used to assist in local system planning, 
evaluation, and management activities. The same data that is useful to 
the public transportation agencies also has value for commercial 
traveler information purposes. To achieve these objectives, the U.S. 
DOT/FHWA is seeking expressions of consent from eligible State and/or 
local transportation agencies/organizations interested in forming a 
public-private partnership, with a private partner that has either been 
pre-selected, or that will be selected, by the U.S. DOT/FHWA, to 
participate in the TTID program.

DATES: Expressions of consent to participate must be received by 4 
p.m., e.t., February 6, 2006.

ADDRESSES: Expressions of consent to participate should be submitted 
directly to the Federal Highway Administration, Office of 
Transportation Management, HOTM-1, Attention: Chung Eng, 400 Seventh 
St., SW., Room 3404, Washington, DC 20590. Material may be submitted 
electronically to: chung.eng@fhwa.dot.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Mr. Chung Eng, Office of 
Transportation Management (HOTM-1), (202) 366-8043, or Mr. Wilbert 
Baccus, Office of the Chief Counsel (HCC-40), (202) 366-0780, U.S. 
Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, 400 
Seventh St., SW., Washington, DC 20590. Office hours are from 7:45 a.m. 
to 4:15 p.m., e.t., Monday through Friday, except Federal holidays.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

    The ITIP program has its origin in section 5117(b)(3) of the TEA-21 
(Pub. L. 105-178, as amended by title IX of Pub. L. 105-206), which 
required private technology commercialization initiatives as part of a 
program to ``advance the deployment of an operational intelligent 
transportation infrastructure system for the measurement of various 
transportation system activities to aid in the transportation planning 
and analysis while making a significant contribution to the ITS 
program.'' To that end, the U.S. DOT/FHWA retained a private sector 
Consortium consisting of Signal Corporation (now a part of General 
Dynamics); Traffic.com; Michael Baker Jr., Inc.; L.R Kimball & 
Associates, Inc.; and PB Farradyne, Inc. to experiment with the 
collection and archiving of performance monitoring data that would 
ultimately be used to measure national system performance while also 
using this data for commercial traveler information purposes. The 
successful testing of this public-private partnership in the two pilot 
cities of Pittsburgh and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania led to a $50

[[Page 60871]]

million expansion of the ITIP program to accommodate up to 25 
additional deployments in pre-selected deployment areas with a pared 
down Consortium consisting of Traffic.com as lead partner, and General 
Dynamics. Progress to date on the ITIP program expansion is as follows:
     $28 million committed to 14 expansion deployment areas:
    (a) 4--Fully Operational: Chicago, Providence, Tampa, Boston.
    (b) 8--Partially Deployed: Detroit, Los Angeles, Oklahoma City, 
Phoenix, St. Louis, San Diego, San Francisco, Washington DC Region.
    (c) 2--Design In Progress: Baltimore, Seattle.
     5 deployment areas are in negotiations with the 
Consortium, including Las Vegas, Miami, New York, Orlando, and Salt 
Lake City.
     8 deployment areas opted out of the original program, 
including Birmingham, Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky, Cleveland, Dallas/
Ft. Worth, Denver, Houston, Indianapolis, and Portland (OR).
     $22 million remains available under the current contract 
with the Consortium, enough to accommodate 11 additional eligible 
areas.
    The completed and planned deployments in each metropolitan area 
feature the following:
     Public-private partnership for the provision of data 
services to the public agency partners;
     Up to 100 sensors deployed in each metropolitan area, 
primarily along freeways and other major arterials, capable of 
providing data on volume, speed, lane occupation, and limited vehicle 
classification;
     Archived database function;
     Commercialization component to enable self sufficiency;
     Free Web-based access to real-time as well as archived 
data for public agency stakeholders;
     Free Web-based basic traffic condition information to the 
general public (https://www.traffic.com);
     Additional value-added commercial services available on a 
fee basis;
     Private funding contribution toward infrastructure;
     Firm, fixed price contract where the private partner owns, 
operates, and maintains the system;
     Integration of at least one legacy system (e.g. the 
Pennsylvania DOT's Traffic Operations Center in Pittsburgh);
     Sharing of gross revenues to support system enhancements; 
and
     Reliability performance measure calculations and reports 
provided on a monthly basis.
    In section 5508 of the SAFETEA-LU (Pub. L. 109-59; 119 Stat. 1144; 
Aug. 10, 2005), Congress extended the existing relationship with the 
TEA-21 Consortium in Part I, and further expanded the existing program 
by providing the opportunity to participate in Part II, of the new 2-
part TTID program.

Solicitation of Interest

    This notice solicits expressions of consent to participate in the 
2-part TTID program, which is described in greater detail below. For 
the purpose of this notice, an ``expression of consent to participate'' 
is defined to mean a commitment to enter into negotiations for possible 
participation in the program. The legislation identifies specific 
``deployment'' and ``congested'' areas that will have the opportunity 
to participate in the enhanced program and requires that these eligible 
areas express consent to participate, or establish a date by which they 
will consent to participate within the first 180 days after enactment 
of the SAFETEA-LU (by February 6, 2006). This notice does not affect 
those deployment areas that have already received prior funding through 
the ITIP program. The process and method for submitting expressions of 
consent is set forth in the Instructions to Respondents section below.
    Part I of the TTID program provides for the selection, under the 
current task order contract \1\ with the Consortium, of up to 11 
metropolitan areas to receive Federal grants of no more than $2 million 
each. Part II will expand the program by the U.S. DOT/FHWA awarding 
contracts on a competitive basis for the deployment of systems in 
selected congested areas, with consent from the affected State DOT's. 
Part II currently has funding to support the selection of no more than 
3 metropolitan areas to receive Federal grants of no more than $2 
million each, but may receive additional funding through future 
appropriations. The focus in both Part I and Part II of the TTID 
program is to enhance existing surveillance infrastructure in 
participating areas through integration, along with strategic 
deployment of supplemental surveillance infrastructure. The enhanced 
surveillance infrastructure and performance data generated will be used 
to: (1) Aid the public sector partner in carrying out system management 
activities including operations, planning, analysis, and maintenance; 
(2) support provision of basic traveler information to the public at no 
cost to the public; (3) provide opportunities for commercialization of 
other Advanced Traveler Information Services (ATIS); and (4) support 
submittal of data and system performance measure reports to the U.S. 
DOT/FHWA on a monthly basis.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

U.S. DOT/FHWA Objectives

    The U.S. DOT/FHWA will provide funding under the 2-part TTID 
program to:
     Build, enhance, and/or integrate intelligent 
transportation infrastructure in major metropolitan areas to enable and 
help manage the continuous monitoring of the roadway system for 
purposes of providing real-time as well as archived data to aid in the 
operation, planning, analysis, and maintenance activities of the U.S. 
DOT/FHWA and State and local agencies;
     Enhance the quality, availability, and accessibility of 
transportation system performance data to enable the calculation of 
mobility performance and system reliability measures while satisfying 
system operational needs at the same time;
     Provide to the U.S. DOT/FHWA specified performance data 
and reports;
     Provide a traveler information service that includes free 
public access to basic traveler information, and supports provision of 
a 511 based telephone service;
     Realize and publicize the benefits of regionally 
integrated and interoperable intelligent transportation infrastructure 
capable of supporting regional as well as national needs;
     Provide private technology commercialization initiatives 
to generate revenues that will be reinvested in the intelligent 
transportation infrastructure system;
     Aggregate data into reports for multipoint data 
distribution techniques; and
     With respect to Part I of the TTID program, use an 
advanced information system designed and monitored by an entity with 
experience with the Department of Transportation in the design and 
monitoring of high reliability, mission critical voice and data 
systems.

Funding

    The U.S. DOT/FHWA will select up to 11 metropolitan areas to 
participate in Part I, and up to 3 metropolitan areas to participate in 
Part II. A total of up to $2 million in Federal funds per metropolitan 
area will be made available to the consenting metropolitan areas 
selected. For Part I, the Federal funding will be made available to the

[[Page 60872]]

selected partnerships through an existing contract involving the 
Consortium. For Part II, the Federal funding will be made available to 
the selected partnerships through competitive awards to one or more 
private partners to be selected by the U.S. DOT/FHWA, with appropriate 
input and consent from the selected metropolitan areas.
    Federal funding for the TTID program shall be used to support:
    1. Creation of a process and mechanism to collect, integrate, 
archive, manage, and report new and existing transportation data for 
mobility and performance monitoring, planning, evaluation, and other 
similar purposes;
    2. Creation of a data repository of new and existing real-time 
traveler information for dissemination to the traveling public through 
a variety of delivery mechanisms, including support for a 511 based 
telephone service, and free public access to basic traveler 
information, and commercial traveler information services;
    3. Creation of a regional transportation information system that 
integrates and supplements existing surveillance infrastructure to 
support public sector transportation management needs and private 
sector commercialization; and
    4. Accommodation/integration of existing transportation data 
collection, archival, and dissemination mechanisms.
    There will be a twenty percent matching share ($500,000 match 
required if full $2 million in federal funds is provided) that must be 
from non-federally derived funding sources, as required in sections 
5508 of SAFETEA-LU and 5117(b)(3) of TEA-21. For the purposes of this 
program, this matching share must consist of a cash contribution to the 
project. The non-federally derived funding may come from State, local 
government, or private sector partners.

    Note: Funding identified to support continued operations, 
maintenance, and management of the system will not be considered as 
part of the partnership's cost-share contribution.

    The U.S.DOT/FHWA and the Comptroller General of the United States 
will have the right to access all documents pertaining to the use of 
Federal funds and non-Federal contributions. Non-Federal partners must 
maintain sufficient documentation to substantiate these costs. Such 
items as direct labor, fringe benefits, material costs, consultant 
costs, public involvement costs, subcontractor costs, and travel costs 
should be included in that documentation.

* Group A areas will be given first priority for participation in Part I.
** New Jersey had previously opted not to participate, but will have an opportunity to express consent as part
  of the New York/Northern New Jersey metropolitan area if New York does not execute a local agreement with the
  Consortium under the current contract by February 6, 2006.

Eligibility Summary

     Current Contract--Continuity of the current contract will 
be maintained during the 180 day period. Accordingly, Group A areas may 
proceed as normal during this period to negotiate and execute a local 
agreement with the Consortium any time through February 6, 2006, and 
begin deployment under the terms of the current contract.
     Part I--Group A areas unable to execute a local agreement 
with the Consortium by February 6, 2006, may maintain eligibility by 
expressing consent to participate or establishing a date by which they 
will consent to participate by February 6, 2006. Group B and Group C 
areas may also express consent to participate or establish a date by 
which they will consent to participate in Part I by February 6, 2006. 
In selecting consenting areas to participate in Part I, first priority 
will be given to Group A areas. Groups B and C will receive equal 
priority. Priority within individual groups will be based on congestion 
rankings contained in ``The 2005 Urban Mobility Report'' \2\ developed 
by the Texas Transportation Institute. Rankings for the eligible areas 
are shown in Table II below. All Groups proceed with the understanding 
that

[[Page 60873]]

distribution of available funding to the selected consenting areas from 
all Groups will begin immediately after February 6, 2006. Those areas 
that choose to establish a date beyond February 6, 2006, by which they 
will consent to participate will be accommodated only as remaining 
funding permits when consent to participate is actually provided.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ A copy of ``The 2005 Urban Mobility Report'' is available 
from the Texas Transportation Institute at the following URL: http:/
/mobility.tamu.edu/ums/.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Once selected for participation in Part I, the selected 
metropolitan areas must establish a partnership and execute a 
partnership agreement with the Consortium within 180 days of being 
notified by the FHWA of selection, or forfeit the right to participate 
in Part I. Selected metropolitan areas must be willing to work within 
the current contractual mechanism for the initial deployments. This 
will involve the following:
    1. The FHWA has a contractual arrangement with the Consortium in 
the form of a task order under the DOT's Information Technology Omnibus 
Procurement (ITOP) program to develop and deploy systems in up to 25 
metropolitan areas. Since this program extension is basically a 
continuation of the current ITOP task order, the Federal funds provided 
will continue to be made available to the selected partnerships through 
this arrangement.

    Note: This involves direct payment to the Consortium of the 
Federal funds to be provided; and

    2. The selected metropolitan areas are expected to negotiate their 
own partnership agreements with the Consortium to address any specific 
needs beyond those included in the ITOP task order, including the 
facilitation of their financial contribution and accommodation of the 
work to be performed. This will include a commitment to share existing 
surveillance data with the Consortium and to provide access to rights-
of-way for the installation of additional surveillance infrastructure 
by the Consortium. The ITOP task order(s), including payment schedule, 
will be adjusted as necessary to reflect the agreements that have been 
individually negotiated between the selected metropolitan areas/States 
and the private partner. Information on ITOP can be found at the 
following URL: https://www.gsa.gov/ Portal/gsa/ep/channelView. 
do?pageTypeId=8199& channelPage=/ep/channel/ gsaOverview.jsp& 
channelId=-15642.
     Part II--Group A areas unable to execute a local agreement 
with Traffic.com by February 6, 2006, may also express consent to 
participate or establish a date by which they will consent to 
participate in Part II by February 6, 2006. Group B and Group C areas 
may also express consent to participate or establish a date by which 
they will consent to participate in Part II by February 6, 2006. No 
preference will be given to any Groups in the selection of Part II 
participants. Rather, selection will be prioritized based on congestion 
rankings contained in ``The 2005 Urban Mobility Report'' developed by 
the Texas Transportation Institute. Rankings for the eligible areas are 
shown in Table II. Once selected for participation in Part II, the 
selected metropolitan areas will be asked to provide appropriate input 
to a Federal competitive process for the selection of a private 
partner. The selected metropolitan areas will also need to negotiate a 
separate partnership agreement with the chosen private partner to 
address any specific needs beyond those included in the Federal 
contract, including the facilitation of their financial contribution 
and accommodation of the work to be performed. Federal funding will be 
made available to the selected partnerships through the Federal 
contract with the chosen private partner.
    Eligible areas may express consent to participate as follows: only 
for Part I; only for Part II; or for both Part I and Part II of the 
program. Eligible areas expressing consent to participate only for Part 
I or only for Part II will receive consideration only for the part 
indicated. Those eligible areas that express consent to participate for 
both Part I and Part II proceed with the understanding that a single 
area will ultimately be eligible to participate in only one part of the 
program. Once selected to participate in one part of ITIP, an eligible 
area will receive no further consideration for participation in the 
other part. Any eligible area that expresses consent to participate for 
both parts, and whose ranking makes them candidates for selection for 
both parts at the same time, will be given the choice of participating 
in one or the other.

Instructions to Respondents

    Expressions of consent to participate should be in the form of a 
written letter and must be submitted by the State DOT for the 
respective eligible areas. Local transportation agencies/organizations 
that are interested in participating in the program should coordinate 
with their respective State DOT's to submit a joint expression of 
consent. Only one expression of consent will be accepted from each 
eligible area. It is understood that an expression of consent to 
participate is merely a commitment to enter into negotiations for 
possible participation in the program. Expressions of consent should 
include the following:
     Identify the eligible area represented and the agency/
organization or agencies/organizations involved. Joint expressions of 
consent should identify the lead agency/organization;
     Provide an expression of consent to participate, or a date 
by which consent to participate will be provided, in one of the 
following: only in Part I; only in Part II; or in both Part I and Part 
II;
     Provide a statement to the effect that the purpose of the 
program is understood;
     Acknowledge understanding that the following commitments 
are necessary in order to participate:
    1. Satisfy the non-Federal match requirement (80/20 Federal/non-
Federal);
    2. Work with private partner toward achievement of program 
objectives;
    3. Share existing surveillance data with private partner;

[[Page 60874]]

    4. Provide access to rights-of-way for installation of additional 
surveillance infrastructure by the private partner.
     Identify a point of contact along with appropriate contact 
information.
    For those areas that do not have any interest in participating in 
either part of the program, we ask that the appropriate State DOT 
submit a simple letter response identifying the area, and including a 
statement similar to the following: ``We understand the purpose of the 
U.S. DOT's Transportation Technology Innovation and Demonstration 
Program, and do not wish to participate in either part of this 
program.''
    Information Sessions: Two information sessions will be available to 
interested transportation agencies/organizations from the eligible 
areas to address any questions or concerns relating to participation in 
the program. The information sessions will be conducted via video 
conferencing with linkages to appropriate local FHWA Division Offices. 
Times and locations for the sessions are as follows:
