     Improving regional mobility with toll revenues in Northern Virginia
     
     The Commuter Choice program, administered by the Northern Virginia
     Transportation Commission (NVTC), reinvests toll revenues from two
     principal expressway corridors in the Northern Virginia portion of the
     Washington, DC metropolitan area into transit improvements and other
     multimodal transportation enhancements that expand commuters’ travel
     options and support corridor mobility goals. This presentation will
     address:
     
      
     
      * How the program operates, the public-private and state-regional-local
        partnerships involved, the program’s rigorous performance management
        framework and how NVTC ensures that the program delivers maximum value
        to toll payers.
      * How to invest toll revenues defensibly into non-roadway projects
      * The partnerships critical to the success of a competitive transportation
        grant program funded through toll revenues
      * Necessity of rigorous performance analysis and program transparency

     Savings, flexibility and interoperability: key benefits of new tolling
     systems in Europe
     
     The generational replacement of the electronic toll system based on DSRC
     technology with a modern GNSS solution has brought huge savings to the
     Czech Republic. Operating costs fell by two-thirds, even though the toll
     road network expanded by 60% to cover highways and lower-class roads.
     Experience from Slovakia has proven that GNSS tolling is a suitable method
     for charging of all road types, including urban areas. But what
     possibilities and bottlenecks have been identified from pilot projects of
     regional interoperability among Germany, Czech Republic and Slovakia
     compared to the introduction of pan-European interoperability using service
     providers? This presentation will why:
     
      
     
      * Replacement of old DSRC toll systems may be a way to achieve significant
        financial savings
      * GNSS tolling is the most suitable for charging of all type of the roads
      * Interoperability using GNSS gives a seamless way for users and reduce
        burdens

      * President Biden signed a law last November that includes US$125m to test
        road charging at all levels in the USA in the next five years as the
        nation considers this option to finance infrastructure in the
        future. Money is included for pilots at the state and local levels as
        well as an ambitious national pilot to study the effects of a national
        pilot on this large nation.

     North Carolina’s Mileage-Based User Fee Experience
     
     The North Carolina Department of Transportation partners with The Eastern
     Transportation Coalition (TETC) to study the feasibility of implementing a
     mileage-based user fee (MBUF) for the collection of revenues to support
     transportation infrastructure. TETC is a multistate partnership focused on
     bringing agencies together to develop implementable solutions that improve
     our transportation system. To address the need for a sustainable
     transportation funding approach, TETC and NCDOT have collaborated on public
     opinion surveys, geographic equity analysis, and real-world demonstration
     pilots. This presentation will focus on how TETC MBUF work addresses
     privacy, rural drivers and the trucking industry; how North Carolina has
     explored MBUF and what next steps are being taken to address remaining
     implementation barriers.

     HiRUC: Findings on a vehicle inspection-based mileage reporting method
     
      * HDOT recently completed the Hawaii Road Usage Charge Demonstration
        project that reached out to almost 360,000 Hawaii residents with
        customized driving reports showing the number of miles they had driven
        over the past year, how much they had paid in gas taxes, and how much
        they might pay in a road usage charge. Leveraging the existing vehicle
        inspection and registration systems offers a lower cost way to report
        vehicle mileage using a process that the community is familiar with,
        requires no extra work, and has a level of trust already established.
        This presentation will cover:
        
         
     
      * What HDOT accomplished
      * What HDOT learned
      * Next steps for Hawaii

     Making the case for alternative transportation revenue sources in Florida
     
     This presentation will explain how transportation infrastructure is funded
     in Florida and provide insight on the fiscal challenges the State faces
     regarding its reliance on fuel tax as a primary source of transportation
     funding for the future. It will also explore how to replace the fuel tax
     with a more sustainable option.

     Feasibility test of fleet telematics for road user charging
     
     Lessons learned from previous road user charge demonstrations around the
     USA have revealed major hurdles including privacy and the security; add-on
     technology; customer complexity; program administrative costs; and
     scalability of deployments. For those reasons Minnesota’s most recent
     demonstration project took a decidedly different approach by enlisting
     car-share companies using the fleet embedded telematics platform as the
     basis for fee collections. This approach was taken because this represents
     a model for new vehicles that may one-day greatly simplify a road user
     charge fee collection system. This presentation will explore whether:
     
      
     
     • A fleet-based approach to RUC, using embedded telematics, is accurate and
     reliable and may reduce administrative overhead and enforcement costs
     
     • Embedded telematics, installed by manufacturers in most of today’s
     vehicles, could be used to deploy RUC more efficiently and effectively
     across a range of operations and ownership scenarios
     
     • A dual revenue collection system with RUC alongside the motor fuel tax
     will be needed for decades
     
     
     Kenneth Buckeye AICP, Road Pricing Program Manager in the Office of
     Financial Management - Minnesota Department of Transportation
 5.  10:00 10:30
     Why GNSS is becoming the standard for electronic RUC
     
     As an RUC charger, you want a uniform way of performing GNSS RUC collection
     and providing RUC context to mobility service providers) and toll service
     providers. In addition, you want to be able to estimate as accurately as
     possible what your RUC revenue will look like when you change the RUC roads
     and rates. Other questions may include: "On which parts of the road network
     do the most vehicles pass?" and "Are there inconsistencies in vehicle
     trips?" For these and other challenges, Be-Mobile has its unified RUC
     Control Center. Say hello to centralized map-matching, crystal-clear RUC
     revenue estimates and other great tools, all in an easy-to-understand user
     interface.

     Central business district tolling – a new paradigm for urban mobility
     
     Congestion pricing has been implemented in several cities in Europe and
     Asia. New York City's Central Business District Tolling Program will be the
     first implementation of this type of road pricing for congestion reduction
     in the USA. This session will provide background on the project and
     technology, a status update on the Environmental Assessment and public
     engagement process, and discussion of the ways in which this project has
     already broken, and will continue to break, new ground in ways that will
     undoubtedly have application across the country and beyond the program
     itself.

     Exploring pricing to reduce traffic in LA
     
     Through its Traffic Reduction Study, LA Metro is exploring if, where, and
     how in LA County a pilot program with affordable pricing to manage demand
     and investments in high-quality transportation options could reduce traffic
     and make it easier to get around. Topics that will be covered include the
     study background, progress to date, and how LA Metro is adjusting the study
     process and timeline to monitor and adapt to changing economic and traffic
     conditions brought on by Covid-19. The study is an initiative under Metro’s
     Vision 2028 strategic plan. This presentation will explore pricing as one
     pillar of a broader strategy to address traffic, the importance of
     integrating equity into the study process and why the potential benefits
     and burdens are significant.

     Revenue options with advancement of electric vehicles
     
     Illinois has created and implemented numerous pieces of legislation that
     encourage the adoption of electric vehicles. As part of those legislations,
     one requires IDOT to understand the effect of electric vehicle adoption on
     revenue related to the motor fuel tax. This presentation will identify
     potential revenue replacement options, evaluate the revenue options, and
     conduct outreach related to the potential revenue options.

     Trucks Are Not Big Cars: Insights from Nation’s First Multi-State Truck
     Pilot
      * How do commercial trucks fare in a distance-based fee system? The
        answer: It’s complicated. Learn why in this presentation, which will
        share new insights from the nation’s first multi-state mileage-based
        user fee truck pilot
      * Conducted by The Eastern Transportation Coalition, the pilot examined
        the feasibility of using existing regulations, administrative processes,
        and technology as a potential framework for a mileage-based fee
        transportation funding approach
      * This presentation will review five key findings from the truck pilot,
        how industry feedback is being reflected in rate-setting and other pilot
        aspects, and early data from the Coalition’s current national truck
        pilot that is even more expansive than the first.
