Passed unanimously. 5. PUBLIC COMMENTS FOR ITEMS NOT ON THE AGENDA None. 6. AGENCY UPDATES 6.A. FDOT Mr. Gaither presented a video on the FDOT Fiscal Year (FY) 2026-30 Work Program. Mr. Gaither said FDOT had gone through the process of working with the MPO, Collier County, and the local municipalities to identify projects for designation in the Work Program and budget the 2 Page 15 of 184 program to be sure it is balanced. FDOT held public hearings from December 9 —13, 2024. The draft Work Program was presented for comment. FDOT would continue to work with the MPO and the County. FDOT would be working with the MPO and the County to gather feedback to be included when the draft is presented to the State Legislature, and for adoption by Governor DeSantis on July 1, 2025. Vice -Chair Kowal said he had received emails from constituents regarding road surface issues on US 41 from 5' Avenue heading as far east as Golden Gate with potholes and uneven pavement. Secretary Nandam said that US 41 was experiencing major drainage issues and the pipes that run across US 41 were failing. Last year, FDOT started the process of addressing drainage issues. One of the southbound lanes on US 41 would have to be excavated, multiple inlets would be replaced as well as other work. The project estimate was $40 million, as there were many areas all along US 41 that would need to be addressed. A consultant had been hired for the project and the design phase was in progress. FDOT would look for funding for the project in FY 2030-31 to be programmed in the next Work Program cycle, but in the meantime, maintenance repairs would be done as needed. Council Member Penniman asked about the status of raising of US 41. Secretary Nandam said the consultant would assess the possibility of the raising of the road, and the results would be provided. He said the Moving Florida Forward (MFF) projects include the widening of State Rd (SR) 29 from New Market to SR 82 project and the Immokalee loop road project were both scheduled for 2027. The 18.5 mile widening of I-75 from Golden Gate Parkway to Corkscrew Road project was originally programmed as one project at approximately $620 million, but FDOT had received feedback from industry professionals that a project that size would take approximately four to five years to complete. So, in light of an anticipated lengthy project timeline and the unknown of future costs, FDOT developed a Modified Phase Build, dividing the project into four segments for funding in FY 2027-32. The first segment is included in the draft FY 2026-30 Work Program. Spreading out costs for the I-75 widening project made funding available in the first segment of the Work Program for the Immokalee Diverging Diamond Interchange project. FDOT worked with Collier County and the MPO, and local partnership funding from the County helped move the project forward. He said the 951/Collier Blvd. Widening project was pushed out again because of funding. Local partnering could help bring the project back to life. A group discussion followed regarding various projects, including the deferral of the 951 Widening project due to funding, the steady progression of the 951 and I-75 project, project timelines, and the Immokalee loop road project, and that the full 18.5 mile widening of I-75 from Golden Gate to Corkscrew project was estimated to be completed in 2032. Page 16 of 184 Commissioner LoCastro asked for renderings of the projects. Secretary Nandam said he would locate renderings and send them. Ms. Scott expressed her gratitude to Secretary Nandam, the MPO Board, and the County Commissioners for their support in advancing the I-75/Immokalee Road Interchange project. She said she would continue to work with FDOT and the MPO to devise a strategy to advance the fully designed 951 Widening project through local funding. She noted that there were ongoing conversations between the County and FDOT regarding updating the Interlocal Agreement to continue funding after FY 2027 for the operations and maintenance of the fire station facility at Mile Marker 63, which is a very important project for Collier County. Ms. Scott said she was working with FDOT on a strategy to revise the design of MFF project, I-75 at Pine Ridge, as some necessary design elements had been overlooked. Secretary Nandam said during the legislative cycle in the year prior, there had been some modifications of the language and the current funding, which was capped at $2 million, was scheduled to end in 2027. The fire station informed FDOT that expenses were over $2 million. To sustainably source funding for the fire station, FDOT requested that the fire station develop a five-year capital plan to support necessary funding, which would be renegotiated every five years. Mr. Gaither introduced FDOT's new MPO liaison, Mr. Evans. 6.B. MPO None. 7. CHAIR REPORTS 7.A. CITIZENS ADVISORY COMMITTEE (CAC) 7.A.1.

Vice -Chair Kowal said that a recent meeting he had with BPAC Chair, Anthony Matonti, local traffic enforcement, and County legal staff, culminated in a possible draft ordinance to regulate e-bikes. The draft was rejected by the County Sheriff legal staff. Vice -Chair Kowal encouraged all concerned to reach out to the Sheriff to inquire as to why the draft ordinance was rejected. He said that the state manages state roads, but attempting to regulate e-bikes on sidewalks is a local issue. Chair McDaniel suggested inviting Sheriff legal staff to a Board meeting to further the discussion. A group discussion followed regarding the need for e-bike regulations because of the dangerous conditions unregulated e-bike riders create by reckless riding, e.g., riding the opposite way on the road, jumping out in front of traffic, et cetera. Secretary Nandam said he is part of statewide bike-ped safety coalition, facing the same challenges regarding e-bikes. Law enforcement informed the coalition that the current definition for electric bikes does not incorporate privately owned electric bikes (only rentals). The coalition proposed a definition change to include personal e-bikes, and Secretary Nandam offered to provide the Board with the language. He suggested the Board talk to their legislative delegates about updating the definition. Vice -Chair Kowal said sidewalks fall under county jurisdiction. If an e-bike leaves the sidewalk and hits a car, the state categorizes the e-bike as pedestrian traffic. The state cannot help if the County doesn't have ordinance in place for e-bikes. A group discussion followed, regarding possible measures that might be taken to combat the e-bike issue and Vice -Chair Kowal said he would have the draft ordinance sent to everyone for reference. 7.D.

A local fund match for both would come from Easter Seals.

REGULAR BOARD ACTION (NO ROLL CALL) 9.A. Approve Amendment 1 to the FY 2024/25-2025/26 Unified Planning Work Program Ms. Hansen said the Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) serves as the MPO's two-year budget document and identification of the deliverables that the MPO provides. She said a revised Executive Summary had been distributed to the Board to correct an error in the second table included, which had also been corrected in the online version of the December 13, 2024 MPO Agenda Packet. FDOT had provided the MPO with an additional $13,765 in planning funds for the fiscal year and requested that the MPO amend its UPWP (and the underlying MPO agreement) to reflect the additional funds. Since the UPWP was adopted in May 2024, some consultant billings had been reconciled through the end of the last UPWP period. Changes in the Amendment include the addition of a regional element to the Congestion Management Process (CMP) with the Lee MPO in FY 2025 and a reallocation of funds between categories for MPO staff salary tasks, consultant services, and travel and professional development. A transit fare study, funded with the Public Transit and Neighborhood Enhancement Division (PTNE), had also been added to the scope of work for Task 6 in FY 2025. The amounts of PTNE's funding contributions for both the transit fare study and the zero emission fleet transition plan has also been updated. Council Member Schwan moved to approve an Amendment 1 to the FY 24125-25126 Unified Planning Work Program and Council Member Penniman seconded. Passed unanimously. 9.B. Approve the MPO's Amended Public Participation Plan Ms. Hansen said that the MPO's current Public Participation Plan (PPP) was updated in 2020. The MPO's Federal Certification Review process and request for documents prompted staff to initiate a clean- up amendment to update the PPP to reflect current demographics and requirements. The MPO provided a draft to the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). The FHWA provided comments on the updated draft, which have been incorporated. The required public comment period was met. Ms. Hansen reviewed some details of the updates that had been made (which can be viewed in the December 13, 2024 MPO Agenda Packet). Commissioner Hall moved to approve the MPO's Amended Public Participation Plan project and Council Member Penniman seconded. Passed unanimously. 9.C. Approve Proposed 2025 MPO Meeting Calendar Ms. Miceli said this was a request for the Board to approve the proposed 2025 MPO Meeting Calendar, which includes a special MPO Board meeting date request on Thursday, December 11, 2025, 7 Page 20 of 184 instead of the regularly scheduled meeting date of December 12, 2025, as the 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) must be adopted by December 11, 2025. The MPO was notified by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) that that there would be no grace period for this deadline. She requested that the Board approve the proposed 2025 MPO Meeting Calendar which includes the special MPO Board meeting date on December 11, 2025. Chair McDaniel asked if the LRTP could be adopted in November. Ms. Hansen said that a November adoption date could be attempted, but that in an abundance of caution, the MPO would also hold the December 11, 2025 date. Council Member Pernas moved to approve the 2025 MPO Meeting Schedule and Council Member Penniman seconded. Passed unanimously. 9.D. Accept the 2050 Long Range Transportation Plan Public Involvement Plan, Chapter 1 Introduction, and Chapter 3 Planning Context and Decision -Making Framework Ms. Hansen said the proposed plan and draft chapters were being presented to the Board for acceptance rather than adoption, as there would likely be modifications to the chapters as the plan continues to be developed. At the last MPO Board meeting, MPO consultant, Jacobs Engineering provided an overview of the documents in the 2050 LRTP process. FDOT provided comments which were incorporated to FDOT's satisfaction. The draft was endorsed by the Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) and the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) endorsed the draft with the provision that bus -rapid transit be included as a weighting criterion. Vice -Chair Kowal moved to accept the 2050 LRTP Public Involvement Plan and Chapters 1 and 3 and Council Member Penniman seconded. Passed unanimously. 9.E. Approve Three Reappointments and Appoint a New Member to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee Ms. Miceli said three Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) members were requesting membership renewal and there was also a new appointment request by a BPAC member elect.

BPAC member elect, David Sutton, a financial advisor who served on Colorado's City of Lone Tree Planning Commission before relocating to Naples, expressed great enthusiasm for joining BPAC. Commissioner Hall moved to approve Three Reappointments and Appoint a New Member to the Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee and Council Member Schwan seconded. Passed unanimously. Page 21 of 184 9.F. Approve the Reappointment of a Citizens Advisory Committee Member Ms. Miceli said Mr. Neal Gelfand was serving as the Citizens Advisory Committee (CAC) Vice - Chair and that he expressed interest in continuing to serve on CAC.

Council Member Penniman moved to approve the Reappointment of a Citizens Advisory Committee Member and Commissioner Hall seconded. Passed unanimously. 9.G. Approve Annual Performance Review of MPO Executive Director Ms. Hansen said that MPO Executive Director Anne McLaughlin's contract calls for an annual evaluation consistent with a previously approved Annual Performance Evaluation Plan.

The ZEP will evaluate the prospect of deploying zero and low emission vehicles in CAT's fleet, including feasibility, infrastructure needs, power needs, high-level cost estimates, and funding source opportunities. The ZEP also assesses the current state of technology of zero and low emission vehicles and resiliency. The ZEP will assist CAT in evaluating and potentially implementing diversification of CAT's fleet in order to be responsive to the community's needs. The ZEP is also required for CAT to be eligible for various competitive Federal Transit Administration grants. A notice to proceed to Benesch for the ZEP was issued on September 26, 2024, and the current expiration date for the project is March 25, 2025. Benesch has requested, and MPO and CAT staff has agreed to, a 35-day extension of time so that committee/Board meeting presentations on the proposed ZEP can take place, and any necessary revisions to the report resulting therefrom can be incorporated into the final report. MPO Staff has prepared Change Order 1 for a 35- day extension of time, making the new expiration date for the project April 29, 2025. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS: Contracting matters are not presented to committees. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the Board approve Change Order 1 granting Benesch a 35-day extension of time to complete the ZEP and authorize the Chair to sign the Change Order.

PREPARED BY: Dusty Hansen, Senior Planner ATTACHMENTS: FDOT System Performance Report, Highway Safety, January 2025 MPO Resolution 2025-02 Page 54 of 184 STATEWIDE PM1: HIGHWAY SAFET_" The first of FHWA's performance management rule establishes measures to assess safety on all public roads and the process for tFDOT and Florida's MPOs to establish and report their safety targets. GOALS LAW 2045 FTP GOAL Safety and security for residents, visitors, and businesses. IMPORTANCIA To achieve a significant reduction in traffic fatalities and serious injuries on all public roads. FDOT's top priority is to provide a safe transportation system that efficiently moves people and goods throughout Florida. Safety is an important focus throughout all of the state's planning efforts. The Florida SHSP, developed by FDOT and its safety partners, serves as a framework of plans and activities that will improve safety and efficiency on our roadways with an ultimate goal of zero fatalities and serious injuries. Florida's safety vision focuses on motor vehicle safety and includes pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists, micromobility device users, and transit users using the roadway system, as well as connections between the roadway system and other modes of transportation. The total number of persons suffering fatal injuries in a motor vehicle crash during a 5-year rolling average. The total number of fatalities per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT) in a 5-year rolling average. The total number of persons suffering at least one serious injury in a motor vehicle crash during a 5-year rolling average. The total number of serious injuries per 100 million VMT in a 5-year rolling average. The combined total number of non -motorized fatalities and non -motorized serious injuries involving a motor vehicle during a 5-year rolling average. Page 55 of 184 HIGHWAY SAFETY PERFORMANCE DATA Federal Performance Measure (Five -Year Rolling Average) 2055 Florida Transportation Plan CALENDAR YEAR 2019 2020 2021 2022 2023 2023 TARGET The personal and societal costs of traffic crashes in Florida today are unacceptably high. More than 3,100 Florida residents and visitors die in a crash each year, and more than 18,000 are seriously injured. The number of fatalities and fatality rate have increased annually since the last performance report, while serious injuries and the serious injuries rate have shown a steady decrease. Nonmotorized fatalities and serious injuries are also declining. FDOT and the MPOs continuously discuss and reevaluate safety needs and strategies, with an emphasis on making progress toward the target of zero. FDOT closely monitors safety performance and uses this information to guide decision making. The safety projects selected and funded reflect the collaboration between the MPOs and FDOT in recognizing the vision of Target Zero and jointly implementing strategies to achieve zero. FDOT and all 27 Florida MPOs support the vision of zero fatalities and serious injuries. A total of 21 MPOs supported the statewide targets for 2024 and 6 MPOs established specific targets for their planning area.

CONSIDERATIONS: Lee and Collier MPO staff have developed a proposed Scope of Services for a Regional CMP Element to be incorporated into each MPO's LRTP (Attachment 1). Staff presented the draft scope to the Congestion Management, Citizens Advisory, and Technical Advisory Committees for endorsement in January 2025. The Regional CMP Element will address regional roadways within the Bonita Springs -Estero Urban Area that is part of the Lee County Metropolitan Planning Area (MPA), including Alico Road on the north and extending south to include Immokalee Road in Collier County (Attachment 2). The Regional Roadway Network map approved by both MPO Boards in 2017 is shown in Attachment 3. The regional coordination for this project helps fulfill commitments made during discussions that arose from efforts by the Legislature to consolidate the two MPOs last year. Regional coordination on the CMP is consistent with the Unified Planning Work Program, which calls for coordination with Lee MPO in developing Collier MPO's update. Lee MPO's advisory committees and Board have reviewed and approved the Scope of Services. Upon receiving Board approval, Collier MPO staff will initiate the procurement process with the goal of hiring a consultant that is approved under both MPOs' General Planning Contracts and request concurrence from FHWA and FDOT. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS: The Congestion Management, Citizens Advisory, and Technical Advisory Committees reviewed and endorsed the Scope of Services at their January 2025 meetings. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: That the Board review and approve the Scope of Services and authorize staff to initiate the procurement process. PREPARED BY: Anne McLaughlin, MPO Director ATTACHMENTS: Regional Congestion Management Process Element Proposed Scope of Services Bonita Springs Urban Area / Regional CMP Study Area Boundary Collier Lee Regional Roadway Network (2017) Page 79 of 184 REGIONAL CONGESTION MANAGEMENT PROCESS ELEMENT SCOPE OF SERVICES Background The federal government requires all urbanized areas to have in place a continuing, cooperative and comprehensive transportation (3-C) planning process as a condition to the receipt of federal capital or operating assistance. As part of this 3-C planning process the MPO is required to prepare and adopt a 20 year Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). The LRTP is made up of several components including the Freight and Goods Movement element, the Congestion Management Process (CMP) element, the Bicycle Pedestrian element and Transit element. This Scope of Services has been written for the update and development of the Congestion Management Process Element for the 2050 LRTP. For this LRTP update, the two MPOs are developing a regional Congestion Management Process component of the CMP which will be included in both the Lee and Collier MPO plans. The regional CMP component is being developed to help the MPOs meet one of the commitments that was made as part of the consolidation discussions last year. In addition, this analysis is being done to help address commuting congestion during the peak hours between the two MPO urbanized areas. Task 1 — Kickoff Meeting and Project Management The Consultant will provide overall project management, QA/QC review of documents and provide support services as needed. Coordination between the two Lee and Collier Project Managers and the Consultant Project Manager will be conducted on a routine schedule to ensure management of the schedule, resolve any issues/questions and get timely review of the project deliverables. The Consultant will schedule a virtual meeting with the Lee and Collier MPO staff to discuss the scope, schedule and data/previous reports and studies needed for the update and development of the 2050 CMP Element. Deliverables: • Kick off meeting and meeting summary • Project schedule with updates • Periodic Teams coordination meetings Task 2 — Update of the Current Regional Objectives, Performance Measures and Define the CMP Network The Consultant will update the current regional objectives using the MPOs previous CMP as well as the current goals and objectives in the 2050 LRTP that is under development. This will also include a review of the performance measures that are currently being used to define how the multi -modal transportation system is operating and make recommended changes as needed. 11Page Page 80 of 184 The MPO staff is proposing that the CMP network for this update include the joint regional Lee and Collier roadway network, the most recent version that was approved by the Joint MPO Board's back in 2017 (attached). The separate regional component that will be included in both MPO plans will include the regional roadways that are within the portion of the Bonita urbanized area that is a part of the Lee County MPA down to Immokalee Road in Collier County. From the US census analysis, this equates to the area In Lee County where more than 50% of the commuters living in Lee County commute to the Bonita urbanized area. The Consultant will review and make recommendations to the two MPO's where the regional network needs to be revised to address any recent changes or planned changes to the roadway system. The CMP bicycle pedestrian network will follow the facilities on the regional roadway map as well as the SUN (Shared Use Network) facilities in Lee and Collier Counties. The transit network will follow the service routes and new potential routes consistent with the regional roadway network map as well. Deliverables: • Updated regional CMP objectives and performance measures • Updated regional network maps and tables Task 3 — Overview of Current CMP Policies, Procedures and Requirements The Consultant will provide an overview and background of each of the MPOs CMP requirements and update the documentation, as necessary. This task will also include documenting the current programmed projects on the regional roadway network that are planned to be implemented to help address congestion and safety issues on the CMP network. Examples of these projects for inclusion include the US 41 and Bonita Beach Road displaced left that is programmed for design in FY 2026 and the 1-75 and Pine Ridge Road DDI that is currently being designed. Deliverables: • Documentation and update of each MPOs CMP policies, procedures and requirements • Develop table and map of the programmed congestion and safety improvements 2 1 P a g e Page 81 of 184 Task 4: Identify Congested Corridors and Hot Spots and Document Potential Toolbox Solutions Utilizing existing and prior studies, reports and databases, the Consultant will develop corridor level travel summaries of conditions. The summaries will also include information on peak hour bottlenecks to identify hot spot locations to focus on for identifying potential improvements. This task will include the analysis of non -re -occurring (crash, incidents, construction etc.) congestion and the impacts of that on the other regional facilities. The Consultant should use pictures, video, maps and any other visual data available to illustrate the issues that are experienced on the congested corridors and intersection hot Spots. The data sources that should be reviewed and used for this analysis includes the following: • Prior Lee and Collier Congestion Management Process documents and projects • Lee County Traffic System and Management Operations (TS&MO) Plan • FDOT Districtwide LOS Analysis • District One regional model runs to date (E+C and Alt 1 as of November 2024) • Collier County Annual Update Inventory Report (AUIR) • Lee County concurrency analysis • Collier MPO origin and destination study • RITIS • FDOT Lee and Collier mobility profiles • Crash analysis from the Lee and Collier MPO's High Injury Network (HIN) analysis as part of the SS4A projects. FDOT HIN analysis on state roads in Lee County • Travel time data from BlueTOAD sensors and other sources • Transit ridership, operational and coverage information from the TDP's and other recent studies • Corridor and intersection analysis included in the 1-75 Master Plan This task will include conducting a regional origin and destination study focusing on peak hour commuter traffic between Lee and Collier Counties. The breakdown of trips will be by community/planning district and the analysis should be by one of the big data sources that is commonly used. The two MPO's are open to recommendations as to what is used but also how this data can be checked for accuracy as well. The origin and destination data will be used to recommend improvements and strategies. Also as part of this task, the Consultant will develop a process to classify and address congestion and recommend an updated toolbox of projects and CMP Strategies to 3 1 P a g e Page 82 of 184 address recurring and non -recurring congestion. The updated toolbox of projects and strategies should include generalized information on costs of implementation. Deliverables: • Corridor level travel condition summaries • Identification of Intersection hot spots and bottlenecks • Peal hour commuter origin and destination data between Lee and Collier counties • Updated toolbox of projects and strategies to improve recurring and non -recurring congestion with generalized cost data Task 5: Analyze Conditions and Develop Recommended Projects and Strategies for Potential Implementation by the MPO's Using what comes out of task 4, as well as the toolbox of Congestion Management Process strategies, identify specific projects and strategies that will help reduce congestion on roadways and at intersections for implementation. This task will include developing an implementation schedule (short term, mid-term and long term), implementation responsibilities and costs at a planning level cost estimate. The recommended projects and strategies should include a mix of the following: • Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) • Transportation Demand Management (TDM) • Operational improvements • Capacity expansion • Transit improvements • Commuter services and van pools • Technological improvements • Bicycle/pedestrian and micromobility improvements The identification of projects should include where the proposed fix needs further study and include that cost and responsibility for that analysis as well. Deliverables: • Identification of site specific projects and strategies to address congested locations with schedule, responsibility and planning level cost estimates 4 1 P a g e Page 83 of 184 TASK 6: Develop a Prioritization Process to Identify a Prioritized List of Projects and Strategies for Implementation The Consultant will, with the help of the MPO staff, identify the distinct types and amount of funding that is currently available to the MPOs for programming projects and strategies. The Consultant will develop a prioritization process with the input of the MPO staff and MPO committees to develop a list of prioritized projects to be included in the LRTP update for implementation. Deliverables: • Identification of available funding for projects and strategies and prioritization process • List of prioritized projects, strategies and recommendations for both MPOs TASK 7: Monitoring Strategy Effectiveness This Task will address the monitoring of the effectiveness of strategies and projects that are implemented. As part of this task, the Consultant will review the MPO's processes and provisions to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of the CMP strategies and projects that have been implemented to address congestion, and recommend ways to improve these provisions. Deliverables: • Technical Memorandum on findings and recommendations to improve and enhance the MPO's current practices to monitor the effectiveness of implemented strategies and recommendations. Task 8: Public Involvement and MPO Committee Presentations The Consultant will participate in the public involvement meetings that take place as part of the development of the Long Range Plan. In addition the Consultant will make presentations (or provide materials for MPO staff to present) and seek input at the MPOs Congestion Management meetings, TAC, CAC and MPO Board as needed. The total number of meetings estimated as part of this task is sixteen over the project time frame. Deliverables: • Summary of comments and recommendations received as part of the public involvement activities 5 1 P a g e Page 84 of 184 Task 9: Develop the Draft and Final Congestion Management Elements Documentation This task will include pulling together the documentation that has been done in the previous tasks and developing the updated congestion management elements for the Lee and Collier MPO's for inclusion in their Long Range Plans. This will also include a separate regional technical memorandum that will be included in both MPO plans. The CMP elements will include the documentation of the deliverables identified in each of the project tasks. The Consultant will compile and present the first draft of the 2040 CMP Element to the MPO's Traffic Management and Operations Committee, Technical Advisory Committee, Citizens Advisory Committee and the MPO Board. A final version of the 2050 CMP Element will be completed after input from the public, staff and the committees.

The previous plans are fundamental in shaping the Safety Action Plan, providing a foundation and areas for alignment. Collier County reported 929 killed or serious injury (KSI) crashes on their roadway network over a five-year period, averaging about 186 per year (152 serious injury crashes and 34 fatal crashes annually). These crashes resulted in 184 fatalities, averaging 36 traffic deaths per year, as summarized in Table 2. The number of KSI crashes dipped slightly in 2020, in contrast to nationwide trends, but have since surpassed 2019 levels, highlighting a troubling increase in traffic incidents and the urgent need for improved safety measures. Crash data reveals several patterns that provide a better understanding of traffic safety issues in Collier County: - Seasonality: More crashes occur in winter and spring, accounting for nearly 60% of all KSI crashes. Concurrently, over half of pedestrian and bicycle KSI crashes, 66%, occur in winter and spring. This contrasts national trends but aligns with the region's annual population fluctuations during these periods. - Age of Victim: In Collier County, individuals aged 20 to 30 are involved in the highest percentage of KSI (Killed or Seriously Injured) crashes, accounting for 24% despite representing only 9% of the population. Additionally, children and teens (0-19) are disproportionately affected in pedestrian and bicyclist KSI crashes, underscoring their vulnerability. - Contributing Factors: Based on the reported crash data, over half (65%) of all fatal and severe injury crashes are attributed to five main causes: failure to yield, roadway departure, reckless driving, disregarding traffic signals, and speeding. - Location: A large portion of crashes (25%) occur in parking lots. Parking lot locations accounted for 10% of all fatal and serious injury crashes for pedestrians and cyclists, which is disproportionately higher than for all road users (6%). A systemic analysis reveals the relative severity of different types of crashes and types of crash locations: - Crashes by Mode: Motor vehicle crashes account for the majority of all crashes and cause the most serious injuries and fatalities. However, non -motor vehicle crashes tend to be more severe when they occur. Pedestrians and cyclists account for only 4% of all crashes but represent 23% of all KSI (Killed or Seriously Injured) crashes. Motorcyclists are involved injust 1% of all crashes but makeup 14% of KSI crashes. For pedestrian crashes, 1 in every 10 results in a fatality or serious injury. For bicyclists, this figure is 1 in every 9 crashes, and for motorcyclists, it is 1 in every 4 crashes. In contrast, motor vehicle crashes result in a fatality or serious injury every 95 crashes. - Motor Vehicle Crash Types: While rear end, sideswipe, and other / non -collision crashes are the most common motor vehicle crash types, the most severe crash types are roll-over, head-on, left - turn, and ran -off roadway / fixed object crashes (where a motor vehicle strikes a parked car, tree, or other non-moving object). - Intersection Crashes: Risk was assessed for both urban and rural intersections. In urban areas, the relative risk for crashes and KSI (killed or serious injury) crashes is higher at high -volume intersections CM W-o "I, An Page 11 Page 104 of 184 with more lanes. However, the highest risk for pedestrian KSI crashes is at signalized intersections with 1 or 2 lanes and low average daily traffic (under 25,000 vehicles). All crash types are more frequent at intersections with 6 or more lanes, with the greatest risk at high -volume, non -signalized intersections with 6 or more lanes. At rural intersections, non -signalized rural intersections have a greater frequency of KSI crashes yet pedestrian and bicyclist crashes are uncommon at rural intersections. The highest risk for vehicle reported crashes were identified to be speed -related on 6+ lane signalized intersections and related to speed. Segment Crashes: Risk was assessed for both urban and rural roadway segments. On urban roadway segments, the relative risk for roadways with 1 or 2 lanes is consistently low, regardless of average daily vehicle traffic. In general, risk increases with the number of lanes and daily traffic: the risk of KSI crashes is greatest on 6+ lane segments with moderate Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) and of the crash types examined, all occur more frequently than average on 3 to 6+ lane roadway segments with moderate AADT. On rural roadway segments, the risk increases with the number of lanes, even though these roads typically have low average annual daily traffic (AADT) - Equity Assessment: Based on an equity score comprised of demographic and socio-economic factors, areas with a high equity need are overrepresented in the County's crashes and KSI crashes. Although containing only 3% of the county's roadway miles, 9% of KSI crashes occurred in the most disadvantaged communities. A high injury network (HIN), a set of roads and intersections with the highest rates of severe and fatal crashes determined by data analysis, was developed to support Collier MPO in prioritizing safety projects throughout the county. The HIN includes both intersection and segment locations and was developed based on three equally weighted criteria: Severe Crash Risk Score, Facility Risk Score, and Relative Risk Score. C - "MAn Page11 Page 105 of 184 PREVIOUS PLANS This conditions assessment started with a review of relevant past studies and plans that set safety goals impacting the region and future projects. The existing MPO plans and their goals demonstrate significant thought, effort, and engagement, forming the foundation for the Safety Action Plan and providing areas for alignment. Relevant excerpts from these resources are documented below. Several major themes emerged across the plans reviewed: • Increased safety of the transportation system for motorized and non -motorized users. • Safe, connected, efficient, and convenient mobility options including transit. • Accessibility for people walking and biking through investments in the built environment. • Equitable community input and inclusive transportation network outcomes. Overall, Collier MPO's existing plans reflect an intention for a Complete Streets approach where the design, management, operations, and maintenance of the County's streets and transportation systems reflect the needs of all users. These plans are guided by and optimized for broader social, economic, and environmental outcomes, rather than solely focusing on motor vehicle traffic. Plan Findings Below are excerpts from the reviewed plans. Plans that did not contain goals, priorities, or recommendations relevant to a Comprehensive Safety Action Plan have been omitted. "W'..'11111111W Local Roads Safety Plan (LRSP), May 2021 "The purpose is to prioritize opportunities to improve roadway safety on locally owned and maintained roadways in support of Florida Department of Transportation's Vision Zero goal of achieving zero fatalities and serious injuries Statewide." 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) • Goal #6: Increase the Safety of the Transportation System for Users ■ Reduce the number of fatalities, injuries, and crashes. • Ensure adequate bicycle and pedestrian facilities are incorporated into new highway and transit projects. ■ Implement safety -related improvements on high crash corridors. • Goal #7: Promote Multimodal Solutions ■ Improve frequency and reliability of public transit service routes and improve access to park -and -ride lots. ■ Improve pedestrian and bicycle facilities. ■ Implement Complete Streets policies. NOU "I, An Page 11 Page 106 of 184 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) The MPO and its partners prioritize projects listed in the TIP to enhance regional mobility and improve the safety, condition, and efficiency of the transportation system. The TIP includes projects for all transportation modes, including roadways, bicycle and pedestrian paths, transit, and aviation. Its development involves input from all transportation system users, including those traditionally underserved who may face challenges accessing employment and other services. The MPO's LRTP and TIP are developed with consideration of the ten planning factors from MAP-21 and the FAST Act, a selection of which are listed below. • Increase the safety of the transportation system for motorized and non -motorized users. • Increase the security of the transportation system for the motorized and non -motorized users. • Increase the accessibility and mobility of people and for freight. • Enhance the integration and connectivity of the transportation system, across and between modes, for people and freight. • Enhance travel and tourism. FY22-24 Unified Planning Work Program (UPWP) The Florida Transportation Plan and the State's Strategic Highway Safety Plan prioritize safety, aiming for zero traffic fatalities and serious injuries. MPOs must demonstrate how their Long -Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) and priority projects in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) contribute to these safety targets. The UPWP should consider enhancements to data analyses and community involvement to better inform the identification and prioritization of safety projects. Congestion Management Process (CMP), April 2022 The following Objectives were reviewed by the CMP and approved by the MPO Board to provide more specific guidance and direction in evaluating the CMP's performance measures and strategies. • Objective 1: Improve the safety of transportation facilities. • Objective 3: Develop, maintain, expand, and close gaps in pedestrian, bicycle, and shared -use path facility networks for efficient and safe movement of people. Connect these pedestrian and bicycle facilities to existing and future transit stops. • Objective 4: Reduce vehicle miles traveled (VMT) by encouraging alternative modes of transportation, supporting sustainable land use development, and creating an integrated multimodal transportation system. • Objective 6: Promote transportation investments that support the LRTP's priorities, goals, and objectives. LRTP Goal #6: Increase the Safety of the Transportation System for Users; CMP-Related Objectives: o LRTP Goal #7: Promote Multi modal Solutions; CMP-Related Objectives: CHI "I, An Page 11 Page 107 of 184 Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, March 2079 Vision: "To provide a safe and comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian network that promotes and encourages community use and enjoyment." This plan aims to provide a safe and comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian network that promotes and encourages community use and enjoyment. It builds on prior efforts to develop a first-class network throughout Collier County. It is not intended to duplicate or conflict with existing local plans and ongoing projects but rather to unify planning efforts and influence facility improvement priorities at the county level. Strategies and objectives of the plan includes: • Safety: Increase safety for people who walk and bicycle in Collier County. o Objectives: ■ Reduce the number and severity of bicycle crashes. ■ Reduce the number and severity of pedestrian crashes. o Strategies: ■ Identify high -crash locations for RSAs. Projects that implement recommendations identified in RSAs will be a high priority for funding. ■ Collaborate with law enforcement to develop and deploy enforcement/education campaigns. ■ Work with FDOT and law enforcement agencies to seek funding for High Visibility Enforcement (HVE) for pedestrian and bicycle safety. ■ Enhance the partnership with the Community Traffic Safety Team ■ Adopt a Complete Streets Policy and work with local governments and the County to develop and adopt their own Complete Streets policies. ■ Work with FDOT, MPO member entities, and other transportation agencies to reduce the number of crashes, particularly those with severe or fatal injuries Safety Performance Targets of Vision Zero Florida and the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan: o Number of fatalities: 0 o Rate of fatalities per 100 million vehicle miles traveled (VMT): 0 o Number of serious injuries: 0 o Rate of serious injuries per 100 million VMT: 0 o Number of non -motorized fatalities and serious injuries: 0 One of the primary goals of the Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan is to reduce the number of bicycle and pedestrian serious injuries and fatalities by funding projects that will support this goal. CHI "IYUn Page 11 Page 108 of 184 CRASH TRENDS Unless otherwise noted, all crash analyses were done using crash data from the Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles (FLHSMV), queried via Signal Four Analytics for the years 2019-2023. All crashes marked as Interstate were removed for analysis, so crashes along 1-75 will not be included. Crash data only includes reported crashes that meet the state's definition of a crash. Throughout the analysis, the term KSI crash describes crashes resulting in fatalities or serious injuries. Overall Crash Numbers — Including Interstate Crashes From 2019 through 2023, Collier County experienced over 60,000 traffic crashes and over 1,000 fatal or serious injury crashes (Table 1). 2023 peaked with 13,399 total crashes and 253 fatal or serious injury crashes. Although there was a decrease in fatal and serious injury crashes (KSI) between 2019 and 2020, the numbers have been steadily increasing since then. These figures include Interstate crashes, which are excluded from the subsequent sections of this report. Interstates have been left out of the remainder of the crash analysis due to differences in jurisdiction, traffic volumes, and the scope of countermeasures and strategies. 13,399 253 60,228 1,054 Table 1. Total crashes and total fatal and serious injury crashes in Collier County from 2019-2023, including interstate crashes. V � Overall Crash Numbers — Non -Interstate Crashes Excluding Interstate crashes, Collier County saw just over 57,000 crashes between 2019 and 2023 (Table 2). Of those, 929 were serious or fatal injury crashes. This equates to an average of 11,401 crashes, 152 serious injury crashes, and 34 fatal crashes per year. Once again, both crashes and KSI crashes decreased below 2019 levels, but have been steadily increasing since. 11,410 216 9,395 137 11,494 172 12,236 186 12,470 218 57,005 929 Table 2. Total crashes and total fatal and serious injury crashes in Collier County from 2019-2023, excluding interstate crashes. Examining serious injury and fatal crashes more closely (Table 3), both fatal and serious injury crashes follow similar trends with a decrease in 2020 from the 2019 level and increases since. Serious injury crashes peaked at 184 in 2023, and fatal crashes peaked at 35 in 2022. NOU "I, An Page 11 Page 109 of 184 151 184 _ .. • 759 Table 3. Total fatal and serious injury crashes in Collier County from 2019-2023. Table 4 and Table 5 summarize non -interstate crashes for three major cities in Collier County, highlighting the total number of crashes and those resulting in fatal or serious injuries. Between 2019 and 2023, the City of Naples accounted for 4,199 crashes, representing 7% of the county's total crashes. However, these crashes were more severe, making up 11% of the county's KSI crashes. Meanwhile, the City of Marco Island experienced 943 crashes, constituting 2% of the total crashes. Of these, 24 were KSI crashes. The City of Everglades reported 43 crashes, representing less than 1 % of the county's total.

Likewise, there were 968 individuals that were seriously injured from a crash, with an average of 193 annually. Following crash data trends, both fatalities and serious injuries saw a dip from 2019-2020, followed by a steady increase to 2023.

Based on the limitations of the FARS data query tool, the data do not filter out the fatal crashes on interstates. The most recent available data is for the period 2019-2022, resulting in this section not perfectly aligned with the timeframe used in the previous and preceding sections. Compared to overall state levels and several neighboring counties, Collier County has one of the lowest traffic fatality rates at 0.46 fatalities per 1,000 people (Table 6). This rate is lower than Florida's average of 0.63 but only slightly lower than Miami -Dade County's rate of 0.47. Collier County's traffic fatality rate is similar to neighboring Lee and Broward Counties, both of which have rates just over 0.5 per 1,000 people. 178 380,221 0.46 456 772,902 0.58 60 39,902 1.50 1,049 1,940,907 0.54 1,267 2,688,237 0.47 13,785 21,634,529 0.63 Table 6. Collier County traffic fatalities per 7,000 people compared to peer counties Naples, the largest city in Collier County, had a traffic fatality rate of 0.36 per 1,000 people, lower than other large cities like Fort Myers, Fort Lauderdale, and Miami, which all had rates above 0.5 (Table 7). 7 19,315 0.36 70 88,699 0.78 177 182,673 0.96 259 443,665 0.58 Table 7. City of Naples traffic fatalities per 7,000 compared to peer cities Crashes by Mode Between 2019-2023, an average of 21 pedestrian, 22 cyclist, 28 motorcyclist, and 160 motorist fatalities or serious injuries occur from crashes every year in Collier County. Of the 184 fatalities in the county over this period, most were motorists (112), followed by motorcyclists (30), and pedestrians and cyclists (21 each). On average per year, this breaks down to 22.4 motorist fatalities, 6 motorcyclist fatalities, and 4.2 fatalities each for pedestrians and cyclists. Vulnerable Road Users are individuals at a higher risk of injury or fatality in the event of a traffic crash due to their lack of physical protection compared to vehicle occupants. These includes pedestrians, cyclists, motorcyclists, users of personal mobility devices (such as scooters), and other non -motorized road users.

Total fatalities and serious injuries in Collier County from 2019-2023, by mode (pedestrian, bicycle, motorcycle, and motor vehicle). Fatal and serious injuries decreased across most transportation modes from 2019 to 2020, then increased from 2021 to 2023, reaching or surpassing 2019 levels. For example, the number of pedestrians seriously injured fell from 32 to 10, then rose to 21 by 2023. Motorists seriously injured dropped from 160 to 96, then increased to 170 by 2023. While the serious injuries among cyclists and motorcyclists exceeded 2019 levels, rising from 22 to 31 and 24 to 40, respectively. Calculating crash severity shows how severe crashes are for different types of transportation compared to how often they happen. Table 8 Table 8. Total percentage of crashes, total percentage of KSI crashes, and relative severity of crashes in Collier County from 2019-2023, by mode involved (pedestrian, bicycle, motorcycle, and motor vehicle).shows the percentage of total crashes and KSI crashes for each mode from 'IYUn r Page 115 of 184 Collier MPO SS4A SAP Existing Conditions & Safety Analysis Memorandum Contract No. 18-7432 MP 2019-2023. The relative severity score indicates how much more frequent severe crashes are for a specific mode. For example, a pedestrian severity score of 6.1 means severe pedestrian crashes are 6.1 times more common than expected based on the total number of crashes. From 2019-2023, motorist involved crashes made up 95% of all crashes and 63% of the most severe (KSI) crashes. The remaining KSI crashes were fairly evenly split among pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists, even though these groups account for only 5% of all crashes. The relative severity is the ratio of the percent of KSI crashes to the percent of crashes; where the relative severity exceeds 1, KSI are overrepresented for that crash type relative to the number of crashes that occur. The relative severity shows that while crashes involving pedestrians, cyclists, and motorcyclists are less common, they tend to be much more severe. This is especially true for motorcyclists, who are involved in just 1% of all crashes but account for 14% of KSI crashes. Pedestrians and cyclists each account for 2% of all crashes, but pedestrians make up 11% of severe (KSI) crashes, and cyclists 12%.

This analysis looked at the average KSI (killed or seriously injured) crashes for all months from 2019- 2023 and the seasons in which these crashes occurred, as well as all bike and pedestrian KSI crashes: - Winter: December*, January, and February (*includes the December of the previous calendar year) - Spring: March, April, and May - Summer: June, July, and August - Fall: September, October, and November Overall KSI Crashes by Month The number of fatal or serious injury crashes in Collier County varies by month, with a monthly average of 14.8 fatal or seriously injury crashes per month from 2019-2023 (Figure 6). There was a notable dip in the average in August to 9.5 KSI crashes and an increase in December to 18.75 KSI crashes. Likewise, March and May saw above average crashes where people were killed or seriously injured, at 17.75 and 16.5, respectively. 20 15 _.� --- --- --- --- — -- 14.8 10 5 0 Jan Feb March April May June July Aug Sept Oct Nov Dec 5-yrAverage Mk 1111111111111k Figure 6.

These causes are determined by the officer at the scene and may include multiple contributing factors per crash. In Collier County, 65% of all fatal and severe injury crashes result from five primary causes: failure to yield, disregarding traffic signals, speeding, reckless driving, and roadway departure. Reckless driving (24%), failure to yield (18%), and roadway departure (12%) represent the highest shares of contributing actions (Table 13). Table 73. Primary contributing action of crashes in Collier County. Note that 65% represents the share of the sum of these factors against total KSI crashes. These five factors will not sum to 65% due to crashes having multiple reported contributing actions. 1 Reckless driving: A driver who exhibited any two of the following behaviors: Failed to Yield Right of Way (code 3), Followed Too Closely (code 10), Ran Red Light (code 11), Ran Stop Sign (code 13), Improper Passing (code 15), Failed to Keep in Proper Lane (code 25), Disregarded Other Traffic Sign (code 27), or Disregarded Other Road Markings (code 28).

This is helpful, as location prioritization should not just look at where crashes and KSI crashes have occurred, but the types of places in which crashes and KSI crashes commonly occur. The relative severity is the ratio of the percent of KSI crashes to the percent of crashes; where the relative severity exceeds 1, KSI are overrepresented for that crash type relative to the number of crashes that occur. Crash Type Analysis (Motor Vehicle Crashes) Understanding which crash types occur most often, as well as which crash types most often result in fatalities and serious injuries is critical for developing effective safety countermeasures. Between 2019-2023 the most common crash type was rear end, representing 34% of all crashes and 15% of all KSI crashes. Sideswipe and other / non -collision crashes make up the second largest share at 12% and 27%, respectively. However, for KSI crashes specifically, ran off roadway / fixed object crashes represented the highest share of KSI crashes at 19%. This was followed by left turn, rear end, and pedestrian crashes. In addition to share of crashes and KSI crashes, Table 16 includes a measure of relative severity, which helps demonstrate the crash types share of severe crashes relative to its share of total crashes. Crash Type 2 Share Crashes Share KS1W 1 Relative Left Turn 7% Crashes., 17% Severity 2.5 Angle 6% 8% 1.3 Rear End 34% 15% 0.4 Right turn 2% 2% 0.9 Ran off Roadway/Fixed Object 9% 19% 2.3 Head On 1% 6% 5.8 Rollover 0% 5% 10.9 Sideswipe 12% 4% 0.4 Other/ Non -Collision 27% 2% 0.1 Animal 1% 0% 0.3 Table 76. Table of crash types (organized by category) and their share of total crashes, KSI crashes, and relative severity in Collier County from 2079-2023. Analyzing these findings through the lenses of frequency and severity can pinpoint which types of crashes require the most urgent attention for safety interventions. Several key findings can be understood from Table 16: - Intersection / Access Management: - Rear end crashes are common but tend to be less severe when they occur. - Left turn and angle crashes, while only moderately common, tend to be more severe when they occur. 2 Definitions and graphical illustrations of each crash type can be found on https://signal4analytics.com/assets/files/S4 Data Dictionary_.pdf N.1EROU"I, An Page 126 �via� Page 127 of 184 Collier MPO SS4A SAP Existing Conditions & Safety Analysis Memorandum Contract No. 18-7432 MP - Right turn crashes are less common and less severe. - Lane Departure: - Sideswipe crashes are more common, but tend to be less severe when they occur. - Ran off roadway / fixed object crashes represent 9% off all crashes but 19% of KSI crashes, tending to be more severe when they occur. - Both head on and rollover crashes are rare, representing less than 2% of all crashes combined, but these crash types tend to be very severe when they occur. - Other: - While other / non -collision crashes are relatively frequent, they tend to not be very severe. Different crash types may also tend to be more prevalent in different contexts and environments. For example, the distribution of angle, left turning, and ran off roadway/fixed object KSI crashes in Figure 12, Figure 13, and Figure 14, demonstrates a relatively higher concentration of angle and left turn crashes in urban areas. In contrast, ran off roadway/fixed object crashes show more evenly distribution across both urban and rural parts of the county. Figure 72.

By conducting this systemic analysis, the county can prioritize which locations should be prioritized for future investment. This analysis is conducted using relative risk scores; any value over 1 indicates an above -average risk for that feature. For the segment systemic analysis, all non -Interstate roadways found in the FDOT GIS Data Portal were included. For the intersection systemic analysis, all intersections where segments met were included, along with all signal locations identified using Open Streets Map. Local street classifications were omitted from this analysis due to data limitations on local street features such as number of lanes and Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT). Intersections This section provides an overview of crash data at both rural and urban intersections in Collier County, examining intersection characteristics such as signalization, number of lanes among intersection legs, and the AADT type. The relative risk is calculated for key metrics such as overall crashes, KSI crashes, and various crash types identified as both high -risk and high -frequency in the Crash Type Analysis. Those with greater frequency, or risk ratios greater than 1, are highlighted in red. While all intersection types are included in the analysis to ensure a complete dataset, trends from those with less than 4 intersections are excluded from this highlight due to low sample size. Urban Intersection 1K Table 17 shows the relative risk of key metrics for urban intersections for the crash category and across intersection typologies. On urban roadways in the county, the relative risk of different crashes varies across intersection type: - The relative risk for crashes and KSI crashes tends to be higher at high -volume intersections with a greater number of lanes. This is true at both signalized and non -signalized locations, but highest at non -signalized intersections. - There is an above -average risk of pedestrian and cyclist crashes at 6+ lane, high -volume intersections (both signalized and non -signalized) - However, the highest risk for pedestrian KSI crashes (5.5) is at signalized 1 or 2 lane intersection with low AADT. The highest risk for cyclist KSI crashes is 6 or more lane intersections with moderate to high AADT. - Of the crash types examined, all are more frequent at intersections with 6+ lanes. The greatest risk occurs at 6+ lane, high -volume, non -signalized intersections.

In rural roadways in the county, the relative risk of different crashes varies across intersection type: - Overall, non -signalized rural intersections have a greater frequency of KSI crashes. 1 or 2 lane non -signalized intersections are nearly 2 times (1.8) riskier than the average rural intersection. - Signalized rural intersections have less frequent KSI crashes, but a greater risk for crashes in general. The relative risk for a crash is greatest (1.S) for rural signalized roadways involving 6+ lanes. - Of the crash types examined, the highest risk of left turn crashes is at 6+ lane signalized intersections, while ran off roadway risk is found to be higher at unsignalized intersections. - Among crashes marked as speed -related, 6+ lane signalized intersections were found to have the highest risk. - Pedestrian and cyclist crashes are uncommon at rural intersections.

Relative risk is calculated per lane mile and for key metrics such as overall crashes, KSI crashes, and various crash types identified as both high -risk and high -frequency in the Crash Type Analysis. Those with greater frequency, or risk ratios greater than 1, are highlighted in red. Urban Segments Table 19 shows the relative risk of key metrics for urban roadways - for the crash category and across segment typologies. Those with greater frequency, or risk ratios, are highlighted in red. - On urban segments, relative risk for roadways with 1-2 lanes are consistently lower, regardless of AADT. - There is an increased risk for both crashes and KSI crashes on roadway segments with more than 3 lanes. The risk of KSI crashes is greatest (1.4) on 6+ lane segments with moderate AADT. - Pedestrian crashes (2.1) and pedestrian KSI crashes (1.9) are of greatest risk on 3 to 5 lane urban roadway segments with lower AADT. - The greatest risk for bicycle crashes and bicycle KSI crashes occurs on 6+ lane roadway segments. - Of the crash types examined, all occur more frequently than average on 3 to 6+ lane roadway segments with moderate AADT. Of these, speed -related crashes carry the highest risk - nearly 2x the average risk on 6+ lane roadways.

In 2021, Indigenous, Black or African American, and Hispanic or Latino people in the United States faced higher traffic fatality rates than the overall population, with the disparity even more pronounced for certain groups outside of a vehicle. The fatality rate for Black and African American pedestrians and cyclists stood at 4.1 fatalities per 100,000 people while that for American Indian or Alaskan Native stood at 6.6, in comparison to a fatality rate of 2.5 for the total population.3 Evidence suggests that this disparity is widening: between 2017 and 2021, overall fatal traffic crashes rose 15% while fatalities among Black and Hispanic people increased 31% and 28% respectively.4 The USDOT has identified that people living in the 40% of counties with the highest poverty rate had 35% more fatalities than the national average per capita.5 These facts are not only concerning on their own but also contribute to economic insecurity, limited access to opportunities, health disparities, and other inequities, thereby deepening the impact of each fatality on families, neighborhoods, and communities. These same communities often experience less infrastructure and investment compared to more privileged areas or suffer from the negative effects of arterials and highways that divide neighborhoods, hinder mobility, and increase high-speed vehicle traffic. This has resulted in a significant disparity in the quality and design of streets in underserved communities. To effectively address crash factors on the County's roads, it's essential to identify the populations that the Safety Action Plan will serve and determine project priorities. The USDOT, FDOT, and Collier MPO are committed to creating a transportation network that equitably serves all users. Achieving zero traffic fatalities necessitates a dedicated effort to understand and tackle these disparities at their core. Vision Zero's principle of equitable infrastructure investment focuses on allocating more resources to areas that face disproportionate burdens, aiming to correct the impacts of past decisions. By investing equitably in safer streets, we can significantly enhance safety, disrupt the cycles of traffic deaths and serious injuries, and foster healthier, more just, and prosperous communities. Traffic Fatalities & Race in Collier County The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) documents racial data for traffic fatalities through the Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS). Traffic fatalities in Collier County from 2017 through 2021 were captured and analyzed to identify any racial disparities among traffic fatality victims 3 United States Department of Transportation. 2024.

Consistent with national trends, non- white populations in Collier County bear a disproportionate number of traffic fatalities. Table 27. Race and fatalities analysis. Data Source: American Community Survey, 2078-2022: ACS 5-Year Estimates; Fatality Analysis Reporting System (FARS), 2017-2021. Traffic Crashes & Disadvantaged Communities in Collier County The MPO's previous identification of Environmental Justice (EJ) communities were used to examine the issue of equity in terms of traffic safety countywide. These designations, updated for use in the 2019 Collier MPO Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, identify disadvantaged communities at the census block group level by analyzing four socio-economic factors: minority status, poverty, no access to a vehicle, and limited ability to speak English. The EJ communities were given ranking scores of low (one) to high (four or five) factors meaningfully greater (>10% points) than the countywide percentage, and refined by MPO staff and advisory committees.' Environmental Justice areas are shown in Figure 15. In Collier County, EJ areas include 34% of the county population and 27% of the total households but contain disproportionately large portions of the County's underserved populations, including non- white, impoverished, disabled, carless, and non-English speaking communities (Table 22). 6 Traffic fatalities include all fatal crashes in FARS database that fall within the County boundary. This matches the methodology for all other crash analyses in the memo. 7 Full details on EJ methodology can be found in the 2019 Collier MPO Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan accessed at https://www.colIiermpo.org/bp-master-plan/ C'IYUn Page 136 of 184 Collier MPO SS4A SAP Existing Conditions & Safety Analysis Memorandum Contract No. 18-7432 MP 380,221 - 129,626 34% 156,768 - 42,985 27% 101,782 27% 58,265 57% 124,784 33% 22,299 18% 39,131 10% 18,578 47% 34,458 22% 9,550 28% 7,270 5% 3,483 48% 10,650 7% 6,199 58% Table 22.

Although containing only 3% of the county's roadway miles, 9% of KSI crashes occurred in the most disadvantaged communities (EJ areas with the highest rank).

The network is identified based on data analysis of the rate of severe and fatal traffic injuries along road segments and intersections. While other tools may complement high injury networks in developing a data -driven safety action plan, high injury networks are useful for: Prioritizing Projects. A high -injury network indicates the major corridors and intersections with both the greatest demonstrated safety need and the greatest opportunities to make progress towards reducing serious injuries and fatalities. - Identifying High Impact Grant Application. A high -injury network indicates the corridors and intersections that are most likely to demonstrate safety need and impact on competitive regional, state, and federal grant applications. - Developing Critical Partnerships. A high -injury network demonstrates where partnerships are most needed, either as part of continuing inter -agency coordination, or as a starting point for collaboration. Methodology Because of the distinct types of crashes and related safety countermeasures at intersections and street segments, the methodology to determine the HIN evaluated both intersections and street segments separately. The HIN development process included several steps: 1) defining candidate locations, 2) crash assignment, and 3) location evaluation criteria and scoring. Candidate Intersections and Street Segments Candidate street segments and intersections follow the same guidelines as those included in the systemic analysis. Therefore, candidate intersections include all non -Interstate roadways found in the FDOT GIS Data Portal and candidate intersections include all intersections where segments meet along with all signal locations identified using Open Streets Map. Because the high -injury network is a tool to identify high - impact locations for safety improvements, local street networks are omitted from this analysis. Interstates have been excluded from the high -injury analysis due to differences in jurisdiction, traffic volumes, and the scope of countermeasures and strategies. Due to the size of the county, a separate high -injury network analysis was conducted for both urban and rural segments. FDOT functional classification was used to distinguish urban and rural segments. Any segment with a functional classification > 10 was marked urban, while any segment with a functional classification <10 was marked rural. Urban segments were defined as continuous roadway stretches between signalized intersections. In contrast, because rural segments often span much greater distances between intersections, they were divided into subsegments, each with a maximum length of two miles. Due to the low number of rural intersections, a single intersection high -injury network analysis was conducted county -wide. Urban and rural segment designations are outlined in Figure 16. M W-aw "I, An Page 138 .9LLowER�via� Page 139 of 184 Collier MPO SS4A SAP Existing Conditions & Safety Analysis Memorandum Contract No. 18-7432 MP Crash Assignment KSI crashes were assigned to intersections or segments: intersection crashes were defined to include crashes within 150 feet of the intersection, all other crashes were assigned as segment crashes. Location Evaluation Criteria and Scoring To evaluate safety risk at candidate intersections and street segments and develop the high -injury network, all intersection and roadway segments were evaluated on three equally weighted criteria: Severe Crash Risk Score, Facility Risk Score, and Relative Risk Score. Each criteria provides different, but equally important, information on the risk of severe crashes and potential impact of safety improvements for each candidate intersection and street segment. - Severe Crash Risk Score assesses the number of severe crashes (killed or serious injury crashes, or KSI crashes) that have occurred at each intersection and street segment in Collier County from 2019- 2023. This metric prioritizes locations with a higher frequency of KSI crashes. Facility Risk Score assesses the risk of each intersection and street segment based on their physical features (i.e. # of lanes, AADT, etc.). This metric is a systemic measure, as it prioritizes locations with a higher risk of crashes occurring, based on the crash frequency of streets or intersections of the same typology. Scores for each type are summarized in the High -Risk Features Analysis section of this memorandum. - Relative Risk Score assesses the number of severe crashes that have occurred at each intersection and street segment relative to all other intersections and street segments within the same typology (i.e. # of lanes, AADT, etc.). This metric prioritizes locations that performed poorly relative to locations with similar characteristics. These three criteria are combined to produce a net HIN score for each segment and intersection. Scores for each assessment criteria are normalized to vary from 0 to 1, with 0 representing the lowest safety risk and 1 representing the highest safety risk. Scores for all criteria are then summed for each intersection and street segment to yield a net score between 0 and 3. Intersections and segments with the highest scores are then included in the HIN. Results Based on the methodology described above, top -ranked intersections and segments were identified for inclusion in the final high -injury network for intersections, urban segments and rural segments. Two tiers of priority locations were identified for each of these high -injury network layers. The top 15% (851h-1001h percentile) of scores are identified as the Tier I High -Injury Network and the next 15% (7011_85th percentile) are identified as the Tier II High -Injury Network. The cutoffs between tiers were identified to provide a substantial portion of KSI within each tier, while not adding an excessive number of intersections or roadway mileage. These networks are shown in Figure 17 and Figure 18.

This includes 56 miles of urban roadways, 49.1 miles of rural roadways, and 80 intersections, equating to 4.5 miles of roadway$ (Table 24). Thus, the HIN captures a substantial portion of KSI within Collier County in just a small portion of roadways and intersections: • Tier I captures 31% of KSI crashes on just 1.6% of roadway miles Tier I & II capture 50% of KSI crashes on just 4.0% of roadway miles.

CONSIDERATIONS: The Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) notified the Lee and Collier MPO Directors that FDOT is funding and administering a consolidation feasibility study, budgeted at $250,000, and requested input on a potential scope of tasks. The two directors coordinated on providing the attached draft Scope of Services in response (Attachment 1). During last year's legislative session, Senate Bill 1032 included a requirement for the Lee and Collier MPOs to conduct a feasibility study on consolidating the two MPOs. Though the legislation did not get to a final vote, it is likely to come back up again. Below is the relevant language that was included in Senate Bill 1032 last year: (i) By February 28, 2025, the M.P.O.s serving Lee and Collier must submit a feasibility report to the Governor, the President of the Senate, and the Speaker of the House of Representatives exploring the benefits, costs, and process of consolidation into a single M.P.O. serving the contiguous urbanized area, the goal of which would be to: 1. Coordinate transportation projects deemed to be regionally significant. 2. Review the impact of regionally significant land use decisions on the region. 3. Review all proposed regionally significant transportation projects in the transportation improvement program. FDOT met with the Center for Urban Transportation Research (CUTR) to discuss the Scope of Services and asked CUTR to submit a proposal that fine-tunes the draft the directors submitted and to address FDOT's concerns regarding affordability and timeliness. In the meantime, the Lee and Collier MPO Directors are taking the draft Scope to their respective advisory committees and MPO Boards for informational purposes and to report comments to FDOT. COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS: The draft Scope was presented to the Technical and Citizens' Advisory Committees at their January meetings. No formal action was taken. STAFF RECOMMENDATION: Provided for information purposes and to receive Board comments. PREPARED BY: Anne McLaughlin, MPO Director ATTACHMENTS: Draft Lee and Collier MPO Consolidation Feasibility Study Scope of Services Page 167 of 184 Lee and Collier MPO Consolidation Feasibility Study Scope of Services Purpose and Need In response to proposed state legislation during the 2024 Florida Legislative Session and recent support by local legislators and elected officials, FDOT is providing $250,000 to study the feasibility of consolidating the Lee and Collier MPOs. The study will include the issues, revenues/costs/financial management plan, organizational structure, benefits/drawbacks and a potential timeline and process for creating a single metropolitan planning organization serving the Cape Coral and Bonita Springs urbanized areas. FDOT will negotiate a task work order with a consultant firm or team to assist the staff and the Boards of the two MPOs in creating a staffing, management, and procedural framework to fulfill the responsibilities of a federally designated MPO, consistent with federal regulations (23 US Code 134) and state statutes (Chapter 163) for consideration by the two MPO Boards. The Consultant will work with the MPO staff to address the scope tasks listed below to provide the necessary information for the two MPO Boards to determine whether to pursue the creation of a new regional MPO. It is important to note the milestones of each task and coordination with the two MPOs to receive input to determine if those items can be resolved before moving on to the next step in the process. Project Management and Schedule The project will be jointly managed by the two MPOs and FDOT. The MPOs shall each appoint a single project manager to serve as the primary point of contact for the project. Task 1: Kick Off Meeting, Project Management and Coordination Activities The Consultant will hold a kick off meeting with the Lee and Collier MPOs and FDOT staff where the scope tasks and schedule will be discussed. As part of this meeting, the MPO staff for each MPO will provide the Consultant pertinent information on how each MPO currently conducts business in regards to MPO apportionment, agreements, funding, operations and staffing. This task will also include periodic virtual progress meetings with the Lee and Collier MPO Directors and FDOT to provide updates throughout the study, seek input on issues, discuss future work activities and coordinate deliverables. Deliverables: • Kick-off meeting agenda and a summary of the results • A project schedule that MPO staff can share with our respective Boards • Agendas for the progress meetings along with summary notes on what was discussed and any follow up items Page 168 of 184 Task 2: Coordination with FHWA and FTA to Provide Guidance on Questions and Issues The Consultant with the MPO staff and FDOT will coordinate with FHWA and FTA staff on questions and clarifications on items that impact the consolidation of the two TMA areas and need to be answered before drafting an apportionment plan. For example, one of these items includes the interpretation of the central city(ies) of both TMA's in the approval of the apportionment plan. The Consultant and staff will put together questions to be provided to the FHWA and FTA staff ahead of scheduling a coordination meeting to ensure ample opportunity for them to research the answers to the questions. The Consultant will draft a memorandum with the responses and any remaining regulation questions that have not been resolved. The memorandum will also include a breakdown of the remaining issues and how each of the responses impacts positively or negatively the consolidation of the MPO's. Deliverables: • List of questions to be provided to FHWA and FTA • Memorandum with the results of the coordination efforts Task 3: Document Existing Regional Coordination and Benefits/Drawbacks to the Proposed Consolidated MPO The Consultant will develop a memorandum for use in providing information on what the current regional coordination entails along with outlining what a consolidated MPO could do for the area in the future. This analysis will help provide information as to what is currently done but also provide an overview of what could be done as part of a consolidated MPO in the future. The memorandum needs to identify the benefits and drawbacks of combining the MPO's to provide the two MPO Boards with this needed information prior to getting into the discussions regarding the apportionment. This documentation should include examples of other regional MPO's best practices in operations, coordination, duties, public involvement, voting, project prioritization and balancing local versus regional needs. Finally, this memorandum should include recommendations on work responsibilities that Board members think the regional MPO should be doing that are currently not accomplished by the existing regional coordination agreements and requirements. Deliverables: Memorandum that includes current regional activities, benefits/drawbacks of consolidation and best regional practices from other areas. This memorandum will also include input from the current Board members on tasks or responsibilities that they think we should be doing as a consolidated MPO that are beyond our current federal and state requirements. 2 Page 169 of 184 Task 4: Proposed Apportionment Plan The Consultant will assist the two MPOs and their local government partners in identifying proposed apportionment plans for the proposed consolidated board composition consistent with federal and state requirements. This task will include developing a preferred apportionment Board member alternative as well. The proposed and preferred alternative will be presented to the MPO Boards for consideration. The intent of this task is to seek a consensus and draft an agreement on the voting allocations before moving on to the remaining tasks of this scope. The consultant will prepare and present a draft Memorandum Of Understanding (MOU) or some other draft approval process. The Consultant, MPO staff and attorneys shall meet to decide how the draft apportionment plan should be approved before moving on to the next step in the process. If this moves forward, the final apportionment plan will be approved by the MPO Boards at a future date and presented to the Governor for final approval. But it makes little sense to move forward with the remaining tasks in the study if an agreement on the voting appears like it is a barrier that the two MPO's cannot overcome. Deliverables: • Draft apportionment plans to be presented to the two MPO's for consideration • Some form of a draft agreement from the general purpose local governments representing 75% of the population of the urbanized area(s) and the central city(ies) Task 5: Determine the Organization Structure, Costs and Policies/Procedures The Consultant shall review the current MPO structure of both MPO's, operating costs and staffing and put together a memorandum of what a consolidated MPO may look like. This analysis will include a proposed budget (initial start-up and ongoing operations) and staff for the consolidated MPO in enough detail to get input by the member jurisdictions on whether or not they are willing to take on the responsibilities of having the consolidated MPO attached to them for all or certain services. The most important being the capital float/bank as the MPOs are operating on a reimbursement basis. If none of the local entities indicate that they are willing to take this on, the analysis for the new regional MPO will then default to the assumption that it will become an independent entity consistent with how the Lee MPO currently operates. Once a determination on whether the new consolidated MPO is hosted or independent, the Consultant will then identify how the MPO financial, office operations and benefits will be handled (including agreements, if hosted). Examples of these items include IT, legal, accountant, HR, auditor, phones, internet copier, website, insurance, office and meeting space and benefits etc. The Consultant will assess and report on the financial liabilities and assets of each MPO (develop a balance sheet of assets and liabilities) likely to be in place at the time 3 Page 170 of 184 of a merger and develop a transition plan assigning responsibilities to each MPO. The Consultant will develop a financial plan for operating the consolidated MPO based on projected PL allocations and member contributions and show how core planning documents will be funded using TMA SU funds if needed to supplement PL and local contributions. This task will also include recommended MPO policies, procedures, internal controls and bylaws for the proposed consolidated MPO for consideration. Task 5 represents another major milestone in determining whether the two Boards wish to continue on to Task 6. Deliverables: • Determination of a hosted or independent MPO structure • Develop a financial plan for the MPO structure that takes into account projected revenue streams and costs. • Memorandum that includes what the consolidated MPO will look like for financial management, office operations and benefits Task 6: Review of Interlocal Agreements, Contractual Requirements and Recommended Timeline for Inclusion in Final Report The Consultant will review existing agreements and contracts to make recommendations on what needs to be changed regarding existing MPO agreements and contracts as well as what future agreements will need to be put in place. From this review, recommendations will be made on the possible timeline for consolidation. This task will include drafting a final report that includes the information on any issues with existing agreements, future needed new MPO agreements and based on that information, recommendations on the timing for consolidation. The final report will also include the combining of the memorandums from each of the preceding tasks and a synopsis of the findings for review by the two MPO's. Following receipt of comments, the consultant will revise the report and produce a final version. Deliverables: • Review and recommendations on existing and future agreements • Development of final draft report for review by the two MPO's and finalize the report following review 4 Page 171 of 184 2/14/2025 Item # 12.A ID# 2025-534 Executive Summary Administrative Modification to the FY2025-2029 Transportation Improvement Program - Add funds for Livingston/FPL Trail OBJECTIVE: For the MPO Board to receive a copy of the fourth administrative modification made to the FY2025- 2029 Transportation Improvement Program (TIP).

The acquisition of the rail corridor will make it possible to design and construct the Bonita -Estero Rail Trail (BERT) as a safe and attractive venue for cycling and walking that residents and visitors of all ages could enjoy for generations to come. Acquisition also creates opportunities to integrate transit and other multimodal features that support public access to the trail system. The 14.9-mile-long BERT extends 1.5 miles south into Collier County from the Lee/Collier County Line and is an important connecting link in the Florida Gulf Coast Trail. The regional connections and local recreational opportunities that such trails make possible are highly valued, as demonstrated by the Collier MPO Board's unanimous vote on April 12, 2024 to make the acquisition of the Bonita - Estero Rail Trail a priority project.

The Snake Road Safety Improvement Project ("Project") is crucial to address the urgent needs of the underserved Miccosukee community. The Project will result in widened lanes, a new shoulder, and road safety improvements. The outcomes of the Project align with the mission and priorities of the U.S. Department of Transportation (USDOT) by advancing equity, incorporating climate and sustainability considerations, bolstering economic strength, and positioning the Tribe for global competitiveness. The Project also aligns with the goals of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) because the improvements to Snake Road are safety -driven and will rectify the current operational deficiencies of the facility. The MPO Board has adopted the Florida Department of Transportation's Vision Zero Safety Targets and has consistently offered its full support for the Miccosukee Tribe's endeavors in realizing these objectives. Snake Road, also known as BIA Road 1281, is a winding and narrow two-lane road that serves as the primary access to the Miccosukee Tribe's Alligator Alley Reservation and the Seminole Tribe's Big Cypress Reservation. Located in the western end of Broward County, Florida, this road is a lifeline between these communities and I-75 and is instrumental in fulfilling Tribal members' daily needs. It is a key evacuation route in an area frequently swept by hurricanes and wildfires. Due to substandard, deteriorated, and narrow conditions, many accidents have resulted. Urgent intervention is necessary to resolve safety hazards and improve the resilience of the roadway to meet the social, economic, and emergency needs of Tribal members and the traveling public. Snake Road is prioritized for safety improvements in the 2016 Tribal Transportation Safety Plan (TTSP), the 2016 Snake Road Roadway Safety Audit (RSA), and the Tribe's 2016 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP). Beyond enhancing safety, the Project will contribute to economic development by better accommodating the movement of goods and connectivity. The Project will translate to job growth and employment opportunities, as the road improvement will serve new development near Snake Road, including the newly constructed Little Trail Casino and expansion of the Little Trail Community. Page 181 of 184 These developments significantly increase traffic on Snake Road, underscoring the urgency to complete the improvements to the roadway. On September 24, 2022, the Miccosukee Tribal Transportation Improvement Program (TTIP) for Snake Road was approved by the Bureau of Indian Affairs Division of Transportation. This confirms the project's national significance, reflecting alignment with the goals established in the National Roadway Safety Strategy (NRSS) to prevent accidents, injuries, and roadway fatalities through a Safe System Approach. The Project has undergone rigorous review in accordance with the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and the National Historic Preservation Act (NHPA). Therefore, this project is ready to begin as soon as funding becomes available, ensuring an immediate positive impact. The Snake Road Improvement Project exemplifies the type of initiative that the US Department of Transportation aims to support through the RAISE grant program. Grant funding is crucial to implement the improvements needed for the safe, equitable, and viable movement of goods and people along this corridor that is so important to the health and sustainability of the Tribe and all users of the facility. Thank you very much for considering this request. If you require any additional information or clarification, please do not hesitate to contact me.
