6/11/2024 17:00 Regional Transportation Improvement Program: Adopt the
TransNet Local Street Improvement Program of Projects for
Fiscal Years 2024/25 through 2028/29
PAUL HENKIN SANDAG has not done a very good job with Transnet. The
programmers it hired and the program manager it hired
separately failed to inform the SANDAG Board for 6 years that
the toll system on the SR125 was defective and mischarged
about 45,000 people. Apart from this, it failed to complete
several of the promised projects from the Transnet tax.
In addition, some of the cost estimates I've seen at SANDAG
are based on 2020 or 21 data - a few even older.
These projects are not well defined and are based on
estimates, so the work may stop halfway? The following are
most concerning:
CHV35: Traffic Signing. Studies and Signal Upgrade including
vehicle and bike detection systems - SANDAG is currently
doing VMT (Vehicle Miles Travelled) studies, which would be
used to restrict our movements (or tax them by the mile, or
hour, or minute.) Vehicle and bike detection systems installed
by SANDAG may be a prelude to a SANDAG-run VMT system. I
do not think that SANDAG could properly run this without
major organizaƟonal changes.
CHV45: Traffic Monitoring Program - More VMT, and is this
going to be external monitoring or is SANDAG going to get you
to install monitors on some or all cars & vehicles within your
jurisdicƟon.
