There were none.Approval of Agenda and Previous Meeting Minutes: The agenda was approved as presented. Chairman Raliski askedfor a motion to approve the minutes. The February 5, 2014 meeting minutes were moved, seconded, and approved aspresented.General UpdatesTDM and Tolls – Mr. Ron Hodges, Director of Business Development at Hampton Roads Transit talked about the newtolls that went into effect February 1, 2014. Ms. Carol Russell and some Planning employees have been coordinatingefforts to identify some park and ride lots in an effort to lessen the toll burden. There has been some discussion about thepark and rides next to the bus routes and ferry as well. We are promoting vanpools and carpools. In discussions with Ms.Mary Miller, there are about 300 parking slots that may be available in the summer, for a cost, and Mr. Hodges and staffare researching and finalizing the details. The GoPass365 program is also making an impact regarding the tolls throughpromotions and ridership.There is a marketing plan getting ready to roll out, showing alternatives to driving alone.Annual Report for FY13 - Mr. Hodges talked about the annual report. The Powerpoint shown during the TTAC meetingwas an overview. Included in the packets is the draft annual report. It will be sent to all TOS member to review prior tofinal approval, including any edits or suggestions for improvements. On the Guaranteed Ride Slide, #8, the chart will beredone to reflect a more accurate depiction of the current numbers. It was suggested to add some bullets explaining howthe marketing effort ties in with Hampton Roads Transit’s marketing and TRAFFIX. Another suggestion was to add achart about VMT and emissions to show the progress of this effort which is extremely important for the region.Statistical Update – FY 12 Comparison to FY 13 – Ms. Carol Russell stated most of the effort in 2013 was concentratedon the higher education facilities with TCC and ODU on the Southside, and ECPI and Bryant Straton on the Northsidereceiving the most orientations. She noted the NuRide statistics were improving partially through getting students toregister that were already carpooling and riding the busses, so now we are able to collect data for those trips. The vanpoolstatistics are standing still as we are maintaining the current level and won’t be able to improve until we get moreAttachment 16-C

February 5, 2014 – TRAFFIX Oversight Committee Meeting Minutes, Continuedvehicles. TRAFFIX has been coordinating with V-Ride to start vanpools, There is still a large waiting list. TheGuaranteed Ride had some changes: the price was raised to 5.00/per ride, the amount of rides per year allowed wasreduced to six, and no more than two in any month. This will eliminate some of the misuse of this service. NuRide hasnew rewards being given out which is enticing new signups. It was questioned as to what type of marketing/advertising is being done for TRAFFIX. The Tide has a full trainwrap advertising TRAFFIX and there are social media advertisements as well as local media. There will be a bigpush in the springtime noting that this is the time to reach the most people.Personnel Realignment and Hiring – Mr. Hodges informed all that the position on the Peninsula is vacant and Ms.Russell is performing interviews. There are three outreach positions: one on the Peninsula; one on the Southside; and oneat the Naval Base Norfolk. We have moved Ms. Tiffany Swindell to cover the Southside, and Ms. Stacey Swinson to theNaval Base. It was felt these changes would benefit all by placing the correct talent in the correct position. There was ahuge meeting with all the commanders; commands, and over 200 sailors giving them information about all thetransportation options available to all. It was cancelled due to weather, but will be rescheduled. The goal is to create astrong relationship with the military and to have a strong visual presence. In January, there were over 600 walk-ins to theoffice. The TVM (Tticket Vending Machine) has been added and is being set-up. It is the first and only place on the baseto purchase tickets at this time. It is being used in conjunction with the TIP program. Other locations are being looked atfor the Naval Base.Mr. Hodges requested all to promote/assist with perspective contacts where we can grow interest for TRAFFIXalternatives to the cities and employers in your area.Mr. Hodges also noted the CMAQ money will be reduced for the TRAFFIX program in the upcoming FY15.Portsmouth Request for TVMMs. Susan Wilson talked about placing TVM machines in Portsmouth. There was discussion about where theywould/could be placed. Each machine costs around 60,000 and HRT would maintain the maintenance costs.Possible locations were discussed – the newer models need to have some type of shelter. One possible location mentionedwas Victory Crossing Transfer Center. It was determined the locations of current TVM’s would be researched andreported at the next meeting, prior to voting on adding a TVM in Portsmouth: Where they are, how were they funded, andwho maintains them. Mr. Hodges will develop a list for this to distribute at the next TOS. TRAFFIX is promoting thisinstead of HRT, due to funding issues. Mr. Hodges also stated he may create a business model for the business case ofadding a TVM in Portsmouth with the assistance of Portsmouth. Of note: HRT has opened dialogs with all the cities regarding how business needs will be addressed in the futureand where transportation needs are headed; which bus routes are needed; which ones are no longer being utilizedand can be eliminated.Old Business / New Business Zip Car Status – Ms. Russell is having trouble finding anyone interested in the program. Bicycle Rental Status is still an ongoing research item which is something that could work well for the NavalBases. The Shipyard already does this, and it works well. HRT already donates bikes to charities, and couldpossibly donate to this program either on campuses or the Naval Bases. Mr. Hodges will also look into this program and get information from the shipyard. These bikes would beadvertisement opportunities as well.It is time to elect a Chair of TOS for the next term.Next Meeting – May 7, 2014. The meeting adjourned at 12:38 p.m.Respectfully submitted,Carleen K.
