Performance Measures

As a part of monitoring and evaluation activities, a diverse set of 26 performance measures are periodically evaluated to track progress toward the aspirational future transportation and land use vision.  The 26 measures were carefully selected and vetted with the Working Group to reflect the unique functions of the facility types and place types.
​  
Some measures, such as average travel speed and percent of travel severely congested, evaluate the ability of Strategic Intermodal System (SIS) Corridors and Primary Commerce facilities to provide reliable mobility for freight trips and commuter access to employment centers.  Other measures, such as population and employment density and sidewalk coverage, are more relevant to Multimodal Districts and Nodes and Primary Multimodal Facilities.


26 Performance Measures​

1. Traffic Volume
2. Vehicle Miles of Travel
​
3. VMT per Capita
4. Greenhouse Gas Emissions
5. Daily Truck Volume
6. I-95 Interchange Volumes
7. Average Travel Speed
8. Percent of Travel Severely Congested
9. Hours of Travel Severely Congested
10. Percent Travel Meeting Level of Service Criteria
11. Travel Time Reliability
12. Freight Travel Time Reliability
13. Person Throughput
14. Cargo Volume - Airport and Seaport
15. Passenger Volume - Airport and Seaport
16. Commute Mode Share
17. Average Travel Time to Work
18. Employment Density
19. Population Density
20. Transit Ridership
21. Percent Transit Coverage
22. Sidewalk Coverage
23. Bike Lane/Shoulder Coverage
24. Bicycle and Pedestrian Safety
25. Property Values
26. Transportation Funding
In 2014, the project team conducted the Baseline Performance Assessment, which provides a snapshot of existing conditions and identifies desired trends.  The Baseline Assessment results are summarized in a two-page Baseline Performance Dashboard.
In 2016, the project team re-evaluated the 26 performance measures using the latest available data and documented the results in the 2016 Performance Assessment Update Report, which includes a section on challenges encountered, recommendations, and considerations for future updates. The two-page 2016 Performance Dashboard shows the results at a glance. 

The 2016 Assessment Update adds one to two data points for each of the 26 measures to the first data points established in the Baseline Assessment.  It is too early to discern any trends from the limited number of data points, and readers should refrain from drawing conclusions at this time.
Capstone Measures to be Considered

In response to stakeholder feedback, the project team is contemplating enhancing the performance measures and performance assessment process through collaboration with the Core Group and the Working Group for the I-95 CMPP.  Stakeholders suggested setting performance targets and using performance results to communicate the project’s purpose, themes, and takeaways with elected officials and the general public. 

With the Core and Working Groups, the project team intends to develop capstone performance measures for the facility types and place types that are based on emerging national research and newly available analysis methods.  The capstone measures will roll up multiple performance goals into a single measure.  The capstone performance measures will be a complement to the I-95 CMPP’s Performance Dashboard.
