9. Updated Adion Plan 5. Support development of a seamless HOV network in the Tri~Valley to encourage the use of carpools and bus_ transit, and explore the possibility of connecting the HOV network to adjoining areas. The TVTC shall work cooperatively with Caltrans, MYC, and affected jurisdictions to explore opportunities for expanding the HOV system, es- pecially on I~580, where cost-effective. 6. Work to find sources of stable funding to support ongoing transit operations and to support new or enhanced express bus service. 7. Support the preparation by Caltrans of an incident management plan for the State highways in the Tri-Valley. The TVTC recognizes that incidents can have a profound effect on traffic conditions both on the freeways and on the arterials. Since the adoption of the original Tri-Valley Transportation Plan in 1995, several of the previous regional actions have been completed. 1. The subregional traffic impact fee study to address the funding issues described in Chapter 8, "Financial Plant" and to address the list of priority transportation projects described in Chapter 7, "Recommended Improvement Plan" was completed in 1997. 2. In 1998, the Tri-Valley jointly adopted and began implementing a subregional traffic impact fee to pay for planned, but unfunded, transportation improvements. Action Plan. for Route. of Regional Significance This section details the various objectives and actions for each designated route of regional significance within the Tri-Valley. Specific Traffic Service Objectives (TSOs) are presented, together with a set of actions directed at achieving those objectives. The parries responsible for implementing the actions are also identified. Once the Plan is adopted, each jurisdiction will be responsible for making a good faith effort to implement the agreed-upon actions. In Contra Costa County, a jurisdiction's compliance with the 1988 Measure C Growth Man- agement Program will be judged based partly upon its efforts to implement these agreed. upon actions. The actions, programs and measures identified in the Action Plan are intended to mitigate congestion and achieve the TSOs assuming that future traffic will be constrained by the limited capacities of highway facilities serving the Tri-Valley Gateways (see Chapter 5, "Gateway Constraints"). An individual jurisdiction may also elect to implement more strin- gent actions, measures or programs, in addition to those identified below, on facilities within its jurisdictions. For example, a jurisdiction's individual mitigation program could respond to higher future traffic levels, assuming no gateway constraints (see Figure 5-4). 18 April 2000 Page 35 I
