6 UniversityCity Prosperity Project Benefit -Cost Analysis for TGER 23 Proposal considered in the derivation of this BCA The benefits identified in this project consist primarily of four categories: Modal Diversion Pedestrian nvolved Accident Reduction Travel Time Reduction Residual Value of nfrastructure 32 Modal Diversion Modal diversion benefits were calculated by comparing a "No- Build" scenario to a `Build" scenario The difference in monetized values accounted for the benefits Modal Diversion benefits were generated by the following project infrastructure components: Complete Street mprovements, including the improvements to SW 9th Ave, City Hall Plaza, CHPPA (refer to TGER proposal documents for description), FU MMC Entry Plaza and Pavilions, FU MMC Campus Walkways and Boardwalks Pedestrian Bridge over US 4 Community Transit Vehicles FU /Sweetwater Smart Parking Garages and AMS Benefits were defined by deriving the following key data sets: Affected population Average commute distances and total vehicle miles traveled (VMT) Current multi -modal users Future multi -modal users Monetized Vehicular Operation costs per VMT Monetized Air- Pollution (Non -GHG) costs per VMT Monetized Green House Gas Emissions costs per VMT The affected population was defined as the students and staff living in Sweetwater and commuting to and from FU as well as the FU students and staff commuting to and from Sweetwater for entertainment and dining The number of the affected population was then derived by first identifying a base population using 25 numbers taken from a Metropolitan Center Study as attached hereto (FU-MC 25) The base 25 population figures were then compared to the total student population in 25 and a ratio of affected population to total student population was calculated The affected population was then projected to future years based on that calculated ratio and on the FU Strategic plan which shows a 2 students -peryear increase after 2 to an enrollment capacity of 6, students in 28 n addition to this population an additional 5 students was added to the affected population in 25 and on to account for the new student housing match project to be built on the Northeast corner of SW 9th Avenue and 7th Terrace t should be noted that the method used for the derivation of the affected population is very conservative as it maintains the current ratio of FU student and staff (residing and commuting to Sweetwater) to total FU enrollment throughout the 3 year BCA analysis t is assumed that the 6

7 UniversityCity Prosperity Project Benefit -Cost Analysis for TGER 23 Proposal population of students and staff that reside in Sweetwater will increase drastically over the coming years based on the current comprehensive plan of Sweetwater (which promotes the UniversityCity concept) and currently planned developments within the City, and therefore the ratio will increase However, since at this time, that growth is not quantifiable it was not included in the analysis The average two -way commute distance was conservatively determined to be 2 miles and was derived using scaled drawings to map logical commute routes The current percentage of multi -modal users, that is commuters using modal options other than single- occupancy vehicles, was taken from a recent FDOT District 6 safety study at the 9th Avenue intersection which found only 7 pedestrians per day (approximately 2% of the affected population) This ratio was used in the "No Build" scenario For the `Build" scenario it was determined that 4% of residents traveling to and from FU would choose to walk, ride bike, or use transit circulator The percentage is reasonable based on a recent FU /Sweetwater survey taken in response to this UniversityCity Project effort (see appendix A) The final step in the modal diversion benefits calculation was to actually monetize the benefits derived from the 38% modal shift Vehicle operation costs, vehicle ownership costs, air pollution (non-ghg) costs, and green house gas costs were derived from per vehicle - mile -traveled (VMT) cost estimates presented in the report: "Transportation Cost and Benefit Analysis: Techniques, Estimates and mplications, Victoria Transport Policy nstitute" (VPT 22, excerpts included in appendix E) Finally Benefits are derived by comparing the "No- Build" scenario (more people in personal cars = more vehicle costs, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions) to the "Build" scenario (38% less people using cars= less vehicle cost, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions) and the difference in cost is the monetized benefit Table 2 in appendix B provides the actual spreadsheet calculations for Modal Diversion 322 Pedestrian nvolved Accident Reduction Benefits were also calculated for the projected reduction in accidents involving pedestrians due to the surface improvements at 9th Avenue and US 4 as well as the construction of the new pedestrian bridge at the same intersection From current FDOT crash statistics over last years, the average number of pedestrian injuries occurring along this corridor of state road 4 (Tamiami Trail) was determined to be per year Furthermore, per the accident reports injuries ranged from moderate to serious in severity n addition, per the departmental guidance memorandum, published in 2 a Value of Statistical Life (VSL) was determined to be on average $62 million A relative disutility factor by injury severity level was determined in that memo with regard to VSL A Maximum Abbreviated njury Scale (MAS) was determined for 6 severity levels Factoring the severity of recorded accidents, the MAS for the annual accidents at this intersection was determined to be between MAS 3 and 4 An average of the two monetized values was taken and used as the annual "No- Build" cost of pedestrian involved traffic accidents This cost was compared to the "Build" scenario, where an average of pedestrian involved accidents per year is projected, and the calculated difference was the benefits 7

8 UniversityCity Prosperity Project Benefit -Cost Analysis for TGER 23 Proposal Although the benefits generated by this part of the analysis were not significant when compared to Modal Diversion or Travel Time Reduction, the benefits of providing a safe crossing at US 4 is critical to the overall success of this project Without these improvements, commuters will be hesitant to cross US 4 by other modes as is currently the situation This is supported by the results of the student survey in appendix A 323 Travel Time Reduction Travel time reduction benefits were calculated by conservatively projecting the reduction of commute times generated by the following project components: nformed Traveler Program and Applications (refer to TGER proposal documents for full description) Complete Street mprovements, including the improvements to SW 9th Ave, City Hall Plaza, CHPPA (refer to TGER proposal documents for description), FU MMC Entry Plaza and Pavilions, FU MMC Campus Walkways and Boardwalks Pedestrian Bridge over US 4 Community Transit Vehicles FU /Sweetwater Smart Parking Garages and AMS SW 7th Avenue mprovements The main contributor for travel time reduction benefits in this project is by far the nformed Traveler Program (TP) and smart parking garages Refer to the main TGER proposal documents for a full description of all this project intricacies The estimated population of users as defined by Naphtali Rishe and BM for initial deployment of the TP program is 2, A conservative annual growth of user population of % was projected for the project's useful life Commuter travel time reduction for TP users are projected to be between % -2% per BM's experience with similar deployments around the world (2% is the intended goal for the project and % was used in the analysis to be conservative) n order to monetize the travel time reduction, the % reduction factor needed to be applied to an actual commute time To accomplish this, average commute times for Miami -Dade County residents were taken from the 2 census data for Miami -Dade County Cost associated with travel time was derived from the DOT document: "Revised Departmental Guidance on Valuation of Travel Time in Economic Analysis" per the 23 NOFA The derived costs per hour of travel time reduction was multiplied by the calculated time reduction and benefits were generated Additional travel time reductions were calculated by accounting for the reduced commute times for users of the "complete streets " The logic behind this benefit is simply that finding parking on campus is a timely process By providing multi -modal options to access the campus, in addition to the smart parking garages and TP, the affected population would see significantly reduced commute times between their front door and the classroom The affected population was calculated per the same methodology described in section 3, and a population of 8 daily users of the CHPA parking facilities was also included The projected travel time reduction for these users was determined to be minutes based on the parking experience of students and staff on the FU -MMC campus Table 3 in appendix B provides the Travel Time Reduction Benefits 8

9 UniversityCity Prosperity Project Benefit -Cost Analysis for TGER 23 Proposal Finally, travel time reduction benefits were calculated for the projected reduction in travel times for the SW 7th Avenue improvement project The affected population for this component was derived from recent traffic counts provided by the available FDOT online tools Average travel times through the corridor were determined from previous traffic studies in the area which suggest 4 to 75 minutes A conservative travel time reduction of minute was projected for the affected population, and the benefits were derived thereof 324 Residual Value Residual value of the remaining project infrastructure after 3 years was determined by isolating "hard" infrastructure value This meant taking the total project costs and eliminating soft costs (engineering, contractor's administrative costs, etc), eliminating overall administrative costs, and eliminating labor costs (2% of construction cost was determined where not defined) Life - Span estimates were made for each separate component of the project and are based on industry standards Straight -Line depreciation for the life span of each component was assumed and the value at 3 years was taken as the residual value and added to the project benefits tabulation on the 3th year following project completion per the 23 NOFA Table 4 in appendix B provides the Residual Value Calculation 4 Benefit Cost Estimation versus Economic mpacts Based on 3% and 7% discount rate (as recommended by DOT 23), the project has a benefit cost ratio higher than one implying net benefit from the project However, in our view the presented Benefit Cost Analysis provides a very conservative estimate of this project Probably the most important benefit of this project is linking a small town with a major university campus in order to establish a sustainable community The value of this interlinked sustainable community goes beyond what can be quantified by a Benefit Cost Analysis For example, over the long run a major portion of value creation will occur through: i) increased demand for real estate within a more densely developed urban form and resulting investment; ii) job creation due to increased connectivity to university education and higher living standards designed into the built environment within the area; iii) healthier lifestyles in walk -able communities; iv) benefits of TP enabled optimal utilization of existing transportation infrastructures (eg underutilized parking facilities at Miami nternational Airport (MA) can be used more efficiently with park and ride option) and, v) lower cost and dependable mobility through the local community, throughout the metropolitan area and the region, and to modes of state, national and international transport These indirect and induced benefits are not easily captured in Benefit Cost Analysis and so the reported Benefit Cost ratio is highly conservative But these indirect and induced benefits can be measured through Economic mpact Analysis and by collecting data on user's demand and preferences over the long run (a suggested year period) 5 Tracking the Annual Trend of Users Demand and Preferences Considering that broader economic impact of the project can be substantial, we suggest annual tracking of users demand for services and amenities provided by this project We propose to survey potential users at the beginning of the project (in August 23) and then do follow up 9

10 UniversityCity Prosperity Project Benefit -Cost Analysis for TGER 23 Proposal survey (in August 24) when the project is partially operational to estimate the intended and realized demand for using the services and amenities provided by the UniversityCity Prosperity Project Then subsequent annual surveys can be conducted for next 8 years funded by FU in 24 to 22 would measure the trend of changing demand and preferences for key services and amenities provided by this project By complementing primary survey data on users demand and preferences with secondary economic data, we will estimate the broader economic impacts (including generative, redistributive and financial transfer impacts) of the UniversityCity Prosperity Project (see TRB 998) References FDOT Safety Study: "TECHNCAL MEMORANDUM, FM No by CONSUL -TECH Enterprises, nc, Subject: Section 872/SR 9 /SW 8th Street at SW 9th Avenue (MP 6795) 25 Sweetwater Center Collegetown District Charrette, presented November 8, 26 to The City of Sweetwater Prepared by FU Metropolitan Center in partnership with the FU School of Architecture Transportation Cost and Benefit Analysis: Techniques, Estimates and mplications, Victoria Transport Policy nstitute (wwwvtpiorg /tca), 22 TRB 998 Economic mpact Analysis of Transit nvestments: Guidebook for Practitioners, Transportation Research Board, National Research Council, Washington, DC

11 UniversityCity Prosperity Project Benefit -Cost Analysis for TGER 23 Proposal Appendix A: Sweetwater -FU Survey of Potential Users of University -City Project The survey was distributed through s (with requests to forward it), and with some intercept responses at Sweetwater City Hall There were 57 total responses, 34 from students, 266 from FU employees, and 55 from Sweetwater residents The survey asked to document preferences related to living and visiting in Sweetwater (SW), and whether various elements (main street, ATMS, local shuttles, pedestrian crossing improvements for US4 - including bridge) of the of University -City Project would change their current preferences and behavior (consider living in SW, visit SW more, travel through SW more) Major findings of the survey are listed below Non -Sweetwater residents responded that they would consider moving to Sweetwater at least 4% of the time if any of Project elements were put in place 2 At least 45% of all respondents indicated they would eat/entertain more in SW if any of the project elements were put in place, but only 28% would eat/entertain if only student housing were built 3 At least 36% of all respondents indicated they would walk or bike through SW more often if Main Street, ATMS, and Local Shuttles project elements were put in place (the percentage rose to almost 53% if only the Pedestrian Cross elements were built, and was only 25% if only Student housing was built) 4 6% of all respondents indicated they would be more likely to take express bus service to the MC and rail connections if the ATMS or a fast dedicated lane travel path, but only 35% indicated that the Main Street environment would make them more likely to do so 5 More than ten percent (9 %) of student respondents indicated they already walk or bike to school, and 2% of them say they already live in SW 6 46% of student respondents indicated they would consider moving to Sweetwater for Main Street, 53% for ATMS, 57% for local shuttles, and 5% for pedestrian crossing/bridge improvements 7 More than 5% of student respondents indicated they would eat/entertain more in SW if Main Street, ATMS, local Shuttles, and pedestrian crossing/bridge improvements were put in place, and 4% would do so even if only new student housing were built 8 58% of student respondents would walk/bike more through SW if pedestrian/bridge improvements were made 9 More than 6% of students would use express service to the MC and rail connections if the ATMS, and dedicated lanes were in place
