FY2019-FY2028 Transit Development Plan Annual Update September 2018
1. Background and Process
A TDP is a multi-year financial and operating plan for a transit agency. The Florida Department ofTransportation (FDOT) requires public transit providers receiving State funding to develop and adopt a TDPas explained in Chapter 14-73.001, Florida Administrative Code.
“Transit Development Plans (TDPs) are required for grant program recipients inSection 341.052, F.S. A TDP shall be the provider’s planning, development, andoperational guidance document, based on a ten‐year planning horizon and coversthe year for which funding is sought and the nine subsequent years. A TDP or anannual update shall be used in developing the Department’s five‐year Work Program,the Transportation Improvement Program, and the Department’s Program andResource Plan. A TDP shall be adopted by a provider’s governing body. Technicalassistance in preparing TDPs is available from the Department. TDPs shall beupdated every five years.”
All transit agencies are required to prepare a five-year major TDP and an annual update in the form of aprogress report each year. The HART Board adopted the last major TDP update on September 25, 2017.
This year’s annual update of the TDP covers the FY2019 – FY2028. This year’s update to the TDP provides aprogress status report on implementing the key projects and initiatives that were included in the2018-2027 Major TDP Update. In addition, the TDP is updated to reflect revised priorities for service andcapital projects.
HART’s TDP update emphasizes the following requirements of the annual update under Florida Statute341.052 (Chapter 14-73)
• Past year’s accomplishments compared to the original implementation program;
• Analysis of discrepancies, if any, between the plan and its implementation for the past year and steps that will be taken to attain original goals and objectives;
• Any revisions to the implementation program in the past year;
• Added recommendations for the new tenth year of the upcoming plan;
• Any revisions to the financial plan; and
• A revised list of projects or services needed to meet the goals and objectives.

GOAL 1: Continue to Enhance the Financial Condition
Specific past year accomplishments:
Manage System Cost Effectively. Regularly evaluate system/route productively and implement route, area,and/or system‐based efficiency improvements.
Comprehensive Operations Analysis (COA) – In October 2017, HART proposed a service plan that meetsaffordability within the FY 2018 budget while developing a transformational network of publictransportation services. The service plan would also address patron concerns for faster travel time andgreater frequency. The COA service plan could save HART approximately $5.8 million over the FY 2017service level and reduced the peak hour fleet allowing vehicles that have exceeded their useful life to betaken out of service. The changes are outlined under Goal 2. It is estimated that the COA service planwould reduce the peak-hour fleet by approximately 40 vehicles allowing vehicles that exceeded the12-year life to be taken out of revenue service. After public review and input with the Boardrecommendation, HART implemented 95% of the service plan.
Customer Choice Voucher - Existing paratransit services has been expanded through agreements withservice providers to assist with paratransit trips seven days a week, 21 hours a day. HARTPlus customerswho choose the voucher program will select a provider from the list to book a trip, including same daytrips. The first two years have shown the popularity and success of the program with over 115,000 tripsperformed, with over 49,000 wheelchair transports included in that number. The program has providedHART with savings in excess of $2,000,000 over HART delivering the service in house. Overall customersatisfaction has been positive as documented during the HART Quality Assurance Customer CallBack program.
Seek additional funding for services and programs.
U.S. Department of Transportation Discretionary Grants for Section 5339 Bus and Bus FacilitiesPrograms - Staff submitted proposals in July and August 2017 to secure federal discretionary funding fromthe fiscal year 2018 Section 5339-B Bus and Bus Facilities and 5339C Low or No Emissions Grants to constructa new heavy maintenance building and bus replacement. The proposals sought ($15.1 million).
Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) Transportation Regional Incentive Program - Receivedfunding ($1.5 million) from the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT), to conduct a Premium RegionalTransit Feasibility Study focusing on the Tampa Bay region of Hillsborough, Pasco, and Pinellas Counties.
FDOT Transit Urban Corridor Grants - HART entered into a joint participation agreement with FDOT torealign Route 51LX (New Tampa/ Pasco Limited Express) into a replacement Route 275LX (WesleyChapel/University Area Transit Center/ Downtown Tampa/Tampa International Airport). HART is replacingRoute 51LX with a more robust regional route as ridership continues to decline on Route 51LX.

GOAL 2: Improve Mobility and Accessibility
Specific past year accomplishments:
Phase 1 of Mission Max (Modernizing and Aligning for Excellence), a major service redesign was implementedin October 2017 to accomplish three of the eleven objectives established under this goal. The threeobjectives related to Mission Max are:
1. Provide faster, more frequent services (bus every 10‐15 minutes during peak travel times) in areas with high existing ridership and higher population and employment densities streamlining routes and facilities.
An assessment of the service area characteristics and the HART network was conducted during the Comprehensive Service Operation Analysis (COA) to identify where transit is or is not servingpopulation densities that are often transit supportive. Routes were compared with similar servicecharacteristics to determine the performance on the routes.
Results:
• Route 2 was removed and replaced by MetroRapid. Frequency on MetroRapid increased to every 12 minutes on weekdays.
• Weekday frequency was increased to every 15 minutes on Routes 1 and 34.
• Streamlining included the elimination of nine low performing routes and the implementation of five new routes to serve higher population and employment densities.
2. Provide basic, low‐frequency (bus every 30‐60 minutes) transit service in areas of low existing ridership and lower density.HART implemented the following service changes:
30 minutes
• Route 14 - Increased weekday frequency to every 30 minutes. Route restructured to travel on the Howard Avenue and Armenia Avenue one-way pairs connecting South Tampa, West Tampa, and the Yukon Transfer Center.
• Route 42 - The new service operates at a 30-minute frequency, connecting the Yukon Transfer Center to the University Area.
• Route 16 - Increased weekday frequency to every 30 minutes on Waters Avenue.

Participate in planning efforts evaluation strategies to serve a greater portion of the county’s mobility needs by focusing on high capacity corridors.
Bus Rapid Corridor Design/ Engineering Study - HART in conjunction with FDOT and local stakeholders,is conducting a Bus Rapid Transit Corridor Design/Engineering Study and consideration for an FTA SmallStarts application focusing on the current Nebraska Avenue MetroRapid corridor, Fowler Avenue corridor,and the Florida Avenue corridor. FDOT has dedicated $2.5 million to the two-year study. The studywill examine the potential for a Bus Rapid Transit line with all exclusive guideway with full transitsignal priority.
Regional Transit Feasibility Plan - The plan evaluates opportunities for premium transit within theurbanized areas of Hillsborough, Pasco, and Pinellas County. The purpose of the study is to identify projectsfor the Tampa Bay Region that have the greatest potential to compete for federal grants. The RegionalTransit Feasibility Plan is a two-year effort divided into two phases:
• Phase 1 included identifying the highest performing regional transit network (or Vision) for Tampa Bay as well as identifying a catalyst project that could begin implementation with the next few years.
• Phase 2 includes understanding the community’s preferences regarding the draft plan and catalyst project.
Brandon Corridors and Mixed Use Centers Pilot Project - The study is a joint pilot project of theMetropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), Planning Commission, in partnerships with HART, HillsboroughCounty Development Services and Hillsborough County Public Works. The study explores ways in whichland use and transportation improvements can complement each other through redevelopment, transitimprovements and capital improvements projects. The study examines three main corridors utilized byHART routes: Brandon Boulevard (S.R. 60), Lumsden Road, and Bloomingdale Avenue.
Invision Tampa Streetcar Study - The City of Tampa began phase II of the InVision Tampa StreetcarFeasibility Study to evaluate modernizing and extending the Tampa Historic Streetcar System. Phase Ipresented a detailed evaluation of seven alignment options and extensive public engagement. A north-south corridor through the heart of downtown to Marion Transit Center and north to Tampa Heights isidentified as the preferred option for the extension of enhanced transit service. The alignment optionsinclude either Franklin Street or the Tampa Street/Florida Avenue Couplet. The implementation plan andfunding strategy will consider integration with other elements of the local and regional transit and mobilitynetwork including the Regional Transit Feasibility Plan, the Heights Mobility Study, the Intermodal FacilitiesStudy, and the Tampa Bay Next Program.
Complete accessibility improvements at stops and facilities.
Bus Stop Accessibility Study - The agency is planning to conduct another audit of its bus stops. The lastbus stop audit was completed 10 years ago in an effort to bring grandfathered-in stops to meet thestandards of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Since that time major service revisions werecompleted that included realignment of routes and implementation of new services that required bus stopremoval and the placement of new stops. The new study will focus on reviewing the conditions of shelters(including ADA-accessibility, possibly moving stops, and improving stop Global Positioning System (GPS)location accuracy for Google Maps, and OneBusAway).

Coordinate with surrounding transit providers and regional agencies to address customer needs andconnectivity, in particular as part of the identified regional spine and gateway areas. / Improve access toemployment areas.
Megabus @ Mango Park-n-Ride: On October 1, 2015, the HART pilot program to use capacity of Megabuscoaches as an Express service between the HART Mango Park-n-Ride and the Marion Transit Center began.HART customers can use the service to Marion Transit Center with a HART 31-day pass or by purchasingdirect fares for the route on Megabus.com. The park-n-ride is now being utilized for Megabus service toMiami, Lakeland, Orlando, and Hollywood.
Pasco Park and Ride: HART entered into a three-party easement agreement between HART, Pasco County,and Pasco-Pinellas Hillsborough Community Health System, Inc. for a shared park-n-ride lot at the FloridaHospital/Wesley Chapel built and provided by Pasco-Pinellas Hillsborough Community Health System,Inc. as per the Wiregrass Development of Regional Impact (DRI) #260 agreement requiring the developerto mitigate the impact of traffic generated by the development. The park-n-ride opened in 2017.
The three-party agreement provides for the shared use by HART and Pasco County Public Transportation(PCPT) of the park-n-ride and access to the Wiregrass Development by HART and PCPT vehicles. Theagreement provides several advantages to HART and its customers:
o Cost Savings - HART consolidated into a single site two leased locations: Tampa Korean United Methodist Church and Victorious Life Church. Each location was paid $1,000 per month by HART for their use.
o The park-n-ride provides a more convenient location for customers of HART Route 275LX that replaced Route 51LX. The location provides a shorter trip for 275LX.
o The park-n-ride and permission to use Wiregrass Development streets facilitates regional transfers between HART’s Limited-Express route with PCPT Route 54 Cross County Connector route and provides additional mobility options to residents of both counties.
o The park-n-ride is of sufficient size that it will accommodate growth by HART and PCPT routes including additional express service by HART.
o Routine maintenance will be the shared responsibility of HART and PCPT as opposed to the current two lots that are the sole responsibility of HART.
275LX: 275 Limited Express (275LX) is designed to provide a more robust regional connection replacingRoute 51LX. Route 275LX will add connections to major employment/activity centers. These centersinclude Tampa International Airport (TIA), The University of South Florida and the Innovation District, NewTampa, Downtown Tampa, Pasco Florida Hospital and Wesley Chapel Wiregrass Mall. The route connectsto Pasco County Public Transportation cross-county Route 54 as well as the University Area Transit Centerservicing 11 HART routes and the USF Bull Runner.

Hillsborough County Mobility Fee Ordinance - Benefits to Transit: On April 26, 2016 the Board of CountyCommissioners adopted the Mobility Fee Ordinance to replace the current transportation impact fees thatwere put into place in 1985 and updated in 1989. A mobility fee is a one-time capital charge imposed ondevelopers to pay for their share of the transportation impact stemming from their residential and com-mercial projects. The fees are paid only once based on land use and size. Mobility fee revenue for HARTcan be collected from the dedicated urban assessment districts served by HART. The fees will be appliedto the Hillsborough County mobility plan that is based on the facility capital improvements included inthe County’s six-year capital improvement plan and the HART TDP.
FY2019-FY2028 Transit Development Plan Annual Update September 2018
Page 16
In addition to roadway facilities, sidewalks and bicycle lanes, the revenue from the mobility fees can beused to fund transit capital improvements. Transit capital improvements include, but are not limited to,buses, park and ride lots, bicycle racks, shelters/kiosks, pull out bays, and regional transit and servicefacilities, such as drainage areas, intersection geometric improvements, wetland /floodplain mitigationareas, landscaping, benches, signage/signalization, and bicycle/pedestrian facilities constructed to providedirect access to a transit stop.
The County shall enter into an agreement with HART to direct the expenditure of mobility fee revenueson specific capital improvements and shall establish a program of expenditures prior to the transfer of themobility fees.
The mobility fee is phased in over a five -year period starting January 1, 2017 at 40% assessment and graduallyincrease each year until January 1, 2021 at a 90% assessment.

PSTA –HART Memorandum of Understanding for Collaboration Opportunities - HART and PSTArenewed the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for partnership opportunities between the agenciesin January 2018. The original HART and PSTA MOU went into effect February 2017 and throughDecember 2017.
Tampa Bay Area Regional Transit Authority (TBARTA) One Call/ One Click Project - TBARTA extendedthe existing MOU with HART to provide funding support of the One Call/ One Click project into theregional fare collection project. The One Call/ One Click web service provides a link to the future backoffice utility that will allow passengers to manage their fare accounts, including the loading and reloadingof fare media. The web service would also be utilized as the regional informational epi-center allowingusers, of all agencies of the Regional Farebox Working Group, to research regional fares, route connectivity,fare media variety, and education on the overall regional system.
Tampa Innovation District (TID) - The Tampa Innovation District (TID) is a multi-jurisdictional districtfounded in 2011 and is recognized as one of the region’s technology hubs. The district holds 74,000 jobsand 4,100 companies. In 2016, the Hillsborough County Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO)completed the Tampa Innovation District Transit Circulator Study in cooperation with Hillsborough CountyEconomic Development Department (HCED), Hillsborough Area Regional Transit (HART) and TampaInnovation Alliance. The study evaluated the potential development of a transit circulator within the TID.The TID partners include the University of South Florida (USF), Busch Gardens, H. Lee Moffitt Cancer Center& Research Institute (Moffitt), and the Veterans’ Affairs (VA) Hospital, each provide shuttle services for theirrespective facilities.
In May 2018, the HART Board of Directors authorized the execution of a Joint Participation Agreementbetween FDOT and HART to implement a circulator service in the TID. The total received from FDOT is$270,000. HART will contribute an additional $175,000 with the remaining $405,000 being comprised by aconsortium of contracted private partner contributions and advertising. The circulator will work tosupplement existing transit provided by the University of South Florida Bull Runner and HART.
Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Connected Vehicle Pilot Program: In April 2018, the HART Board ofDirectors authorized the execution of a Memorandum of Understanding authorizing the agency toparticipate in the Connected Vehicle Pilot Program with the Tampa Hillsborough Expressway Authority(THEA). THEA is one of three test sites in the U.S. for the demonstration of Connected Vehicle technologyto solve transportation problems using what is expected to become a revolutionary safety standard inprivate and public vehicles. HART is a key partner and stakeholder to the project.

GOAL 5: Deliver Capital Projects
Specific past year accomplishments:
HART Operations and Maintenance Feasibility Study - On July 30, 2017, in coordination with the Hills-borough County Metropolitan Planning Organization, HART completed an Operations and MaintenanceFeasibility Study to determine the general magnitude of acreage and costs of developing near-term andlong-term scenarios for expansion fleet and facility needs to maintain its CNG fleet. The study documentedthe facility needs for CNG fueling and potential fleet expansion.
Heavy Maintenance Building - The agency will continue to prioritize funding to construct a newmaintenance facility to replace the existing maintenance building. A value engineering plan of the Heavy
maintenance building was completed in April 2017, providing thepresent value of cost including capital, maintenance, operating and sunkcosts and future value base on inflation.
After evaluating the cost, the project team determined that a newfacility is a feasible choice. HART would be spending $6 million on anaged facility with a useful life of 6-8 years. Constructing a new facilitywould provide a much enhanced value for the cost in a facility with40+ years of life expectancy that will accommodate new vehicletechnologies, full height to accommodate equipment being placed onthe roofs of the buses, with natural light, ventilation and otheramenities for employees.
Bus and Paratransit Vehicle Replacement - HART placed 15 additional CNG buses into service in FY 2018increasing the number of CNG-powered buses to 50. In addition, HART is expecting the arrival of 10additional buses by Fall 2018. HART is expecting 10 CNG-powered buses to arrive in 2019 as the Boardauthorized the purchase in June 2018.
The Board authorized the purchase of 9 paratransit vehicles in 2017 and authorized the purchase of anadditional 12 paratransit vehicles in January 2018 and July 2018.

GOAL 8: Embrace Innovative Practices and Systems
Specific past year accomplishments:
First Mile/ Last Mile SolutionsHART strives to find innovative mobility solutions for current and future transportation services. Moretransit agencies are looking at innovative mobility solutions to combat the declining ridership trends thatare being experienced across the nation. HART has been piloting two programs that provide transportationsolutions to the community. The first program is HART’s paratransit customer choice taxi voucher program.This program allows eligible paratransit clients to use a taxi voucher system for same day trip booking.Another program is HART’s first mile/last mile solution called HyperLINK. This first mile/last mile solutionprogram is a three-mile zone based door-to-door or door-to-designated transit hub provided through asmart phone application or call center.
HART has been awarded grant funds to incorporate the concept of trip brokering into our services utilizingthird party providers. Staff is currently developing a strategy to incorporate this concept into a futureversion of HART’s paratransit customer choice taxi voucher program. Through this program, HART will utilizeall resources available before brokering paratransit trips out to a third party provider resulting in cost savings.HART will also benefit from brokering to quickly handle situations that may degrade operational perform-ance for paratransit trips, such as vehicle mechanical issues or traffic conditions. Another benefit of tripbrokering will allow HART to accommodate the overcapacity of current resources within paratransitoperations due to vehicle resources.
HART is also developing a second phase of the trip brokering process to incorporate into possible firstmile/last mile (FMLM) solutions. HART is exploring all options available to incorporate a FMLM solutionservice network wide to curtail the declining ridership that is being experienced not only at HART, butother national providers of transportation services.
Hyperlink Expansion to Temple Terrace - On October 8, 2017, HART implemented Hyperlink service inTemple Terrace. HART pursued the first and last mile private service strategy, mainly facilitated through anapp or other technology areas with origins and destinations that are highly distributed off of main roadways.In 2016, HART piloted Hyperlink service zones in East Brandon, and the University area to supplement localroutes with a feeder service provided from any address within the zone to a collector bus stop by requestinga pickup with an app. Return trips would be provided from the route back to their place of origin as the‘last mile’ solution. HART added the Carrollwood service zone that linked into the University service zone,however replaced the Carrollwood service area to expand Hyperlink into Temple Terrace due to the lowusage. (Of note: Hyperlink was discontinued on August 1, 2018).

The Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority (HART) has implemented a comprehensive program tomaximize farebox recovery. The implementation of this program is assisting HART in the goal of improvingthe farebox recovery ratio.

* Source: National Transit Database
The following provides an overview of the key elements in HART’s program and some of the actionsundertaken in FY 2017 and FY2018 to increase the system’s farebox recovery ratio.
Organizational GoalsThe HART Board annually adopts organizational goals and targets accomplishment levels that will serve asa basis of measurement and evaluation. The established goals are directly measurable and the organization’slevel of attainment is updated and reported to the Board on a regular basis.
The goals and performance for the first nine months of FY2018 are summarized in Table A-1 on next page.
All of these goals play a role in increasing the agency’s farebox recovery ratio. With nine months of theFiscal Year completed, all Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) fail to achieve all goals with the exception ofMean Distance Between Vehicle Failures. The KPI initial goals were updated at the time of the last majorupdate of the TDP and HART will strive to meet all goals by the next major update of the TDP.

TABLE C-1Organizational Key Performance IndicatorsEvaluation Period FY2018 (October 2017 - September 2018)
Efficiency and Effectiveness Strategies HART began a major restructure of its network in 2017 after completing a Comprehensive OperationsAnalysis (COA). The COA examined Hillsborough County’s population, employment centers, transitaccessibility, local and regional plans, land use, commuting patterns, and HART revenue.
The major restructure of the HART network was designated as Modernizing and Aligning for Excellence(Mission MAX). The streamlined network enabled HART to provide:
• Service every 12-15 minutes during weekdays on four key corridors- better linking people with jobs
• Shorter Trip durations on 14 routes
• Extended core service between 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. (for 90% of local routes)
• 7-day operation of more local routes (89% compared to 63% previously)
Bold Red = KPI target not met in reporting period

Page 41
In addition, HART rolled out three new all-day, hourly Limited Express routes connecting the County’s workforce with key employment centers in Brandon, Downtown Tampa, Tampa International Airport, and MacDillAir Force Base.
Fare AnalysisHART policy is to review and institute incremental fare increases every two years in order to keep pacewith inflation and address budgetary concerns. HART last raised fares in November 2012.
In 2014, HART implemented revisions to the fare policy that was last updated in 2008. The followingmechanisms occurred since the 2008 update that created a need to revise the HART Fare Policy.
• Upcoming regional fare card implementation.
• Polk County universal access discussion.
• The need for consistency of the 47 current bus fare card and discount “agreements” for consignment, adult student programs, non-profit and government agencies.
• Board directed discussions with the Hillsborough County School Board and Juvenile Justice Transition Department.
• The need for modification to the 2008 policy to tie into the language of federal regulations on issues such as public participation and charter service.
Staff performed a comprehensive review and comparison of HART current fare structure with the ratesof other Florida transit agencies. The Board authorized approval to keep the fare structure as statusquo for FY 2015.
HART performed another comparison in conjunction with the major update of the FY2018-FY 2027 TDP.A peer review analysis completed for the major update of the TDP revealed HART’s farebox recovery isapproximately 25 percent above the mean, indicating that fares cover a comparably larger portion ofoperating expenses than peer systems. This may be partially due to higher average fares, which are 10.7percent higher than the peer mean.
