Narrative:
This grant application would involve a new MCDOT project on Deer
Valley Road, from 135 th Avenue to the Deer Valley Access Road (accessing
N. El Mirage Road), The proposed project will add bicycle lanes on Deer
Valley Road, consisting of ten feet of asphalt on the north side of the
existing roadway. The entire roadway will then be restriped with five-foot
bicycle lanes on both the north and south side, with a single travel lane in
each direction.
A road without paved shoulders or bike lanes creates a higher stress trip
for both cyclists and motorists. MCDOT is aware of some cyclist crashes
on this road, and that a very large cycling club utilizes this area. On two-
lane roads with no bike lanes, the passing motorist may cross the yellow

line and face oncoming traffic. Less experienced cyclists will ride as close
to the edge of the road/shoulder as possible. This puts them more as risk,
because the motorist may try to stay in the lane and pass the cyclist very
closely. It is also very easy for a cyclist to ride off the edge and crash,
with uneven edges on the road-to-shoulder often causing the accident.
This project, and with regard to FMYN's funding priorities, ranks Public
Safety as its highest goal. Both cyclists and motorists would be the
target population of this proposed project. MCDOT is responsible for
maintaining over 2,500 miles of roadway in the unincorporated portions of
the Maricopa County, which is the fourth most populous county in the
nation. Within 24 square miles of this road section (including north and
south of Deer Valley Road), the population is 26, 897 (per Maricopa
Association of Governments Demographic Interactive Map), with the
majority of this population being over the age of 25. There are over 9,000
families within this mapped area. The population numbers above do not
include traveling motorists coming from outside this area to get across
north Phoenix.
MCDOT does not have any partners regarding this proposed project's
funding. MCDOT will not be submitting a similar application to any other
tribes.
The timetable for the FMYN-subsidized continuation of the Deer Valley
Road Bike Lanes would depend on the award, but it's anticipated part of
both FY2017 and FY2018 would benefit from the requested amount of
$484,300. A cost estimate is attached, per your request.
Sincerely,

Narrative:
Please see the attached Program information for additional details
regarding our REACT Program regarding its accomplishments and multi-
community benefits. This grant application pertains to a continuing
MCDOT program, and has successfully met the growing need of
providing incident management services on Maricopa County-wide, arterial
roads. Since inception in 2001, MCDOT has responded to 2,659 calls to
provide emergency traffic incident management. In FY2015, the majority
of the incidents responded to by REACT personnel involved fatal and injury
accidents. The REACT benefits include facilitating faster clearance of
incidents, reducing secondary accidents and providing traveler information.

March 24, 2016
Page 2 FMYN Grant Application: REACT Program
REACT also supports incident management for major freeway closures and
other emergencies. This part of the REACT Program would virtually
benefit the entire County's motorists, both on and off the freeways.
MCDOT has Intergovernmental Agreements and partnerships with several
government agencies in the Valley to assist in arterial incident
management, which include ADOT, Scottsdale, Glendale, Peoria, Avondale,
Surprise and Tolleson. This coordination expands the REACT Program
even further and more efficiently. The MCDOT Program receives calls
directed into a system that notifies personnel of incidents. They take
specialized trucks equipped to handle most emergencies to the site,
coordinating with other agencies as needed.
The attached cost estimate represents art estimated portion of MCDOT
costs for one year of the REACT program. Getting awarded for this
Program would greatly benefit MCDOT in having operational costs,
originally allocated to REACT, available for other critical operations.
The REACT Program, and with regard to FMYN's funding priorities, ranks
Public Safety as its highest goal. Additional goals of the REACT Program
are timely information to the public and improving traffic mobility. With
approximately four (4) million people in Maricopa County, the traveling
public would be the target population of the REACT Program.
MCDOT is responsible for maintaining over 2,500 miles of roadway in the
unincorporated portions of the Maricopa County, which is the fourth most
populous county in the nation.
Our partners mentioned above via IGA's do not provide funding for the
REACT Program, but add a valuable, exponential benefit to Maricopa
County motorists with the joint REACT effort. MCDOT will not be
submitting a similar application to any other tribes.
The timetable for the FMYN-subsidized continuation of the REACT Program
would depend on the award, but it's anticipated part of FY2017 and
FY2018 would benefit from the requested amount of $178,000.

MARICOPA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION REACT PROGRAM
Regional Emergency Action Coordination Team (REACT) was established in 2001 to
meet the growing need of providing incident management services on arterial roads to
facilitate faster clearance of incidents, reduce secondary accidents and provide traveler
information. This was the first such dedicated program nationally. REACT took what
was learned from incident management on the Phoenix freeway system and applied
these principals to major arterials, with modifications. The importance of arterial
incident management is vital to this region, where according to the Maricopa
Association of Governments, "the arterial system carries over half of the total vehicle-
miles-traveled in the region."
In the last fifteen years, we have demonstrated the importance of traffic incident
management principles on the major arterials and how vital the arterials' connectivity
are to the area.
Maricopa County has IGAs and partnerships with several cities to assist in arterial
incident management. The cities include Glendale, Peoria, Scottsdale, Avondale,
Surprise and Tolleson.
Primarily, REACT responds to major incidents on arterial roads. Since inception it has
responded to 2,659 calls to provide emergency traffic incident management. The
calendar year distribution is illustrated below.

MARICOPA COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION REACT PROGRAM
In addition, REACT also supports incident management for major freeway closures and
other emergencies. There are two specific examples that will demonstrate the
importance of such support:
o The Integrated Corridor Management (ICM) support for L101 in Scottsdale AZ;
Collaboration was developed between the Arizona Department of Transportation
ADOT), City of Scottsdale and Maricopa County Department of Transportation
(MCDOT) to do a joint response to any major incident on L101 in the Scottsdale
area.
• The 2-12-16 shooting event at Independence High School in Glendale. Arizona
had demonstrated the importance of trained traffic incident responders.
The purpose of REACT is to minimize the negative impact of incidents on traffic mobility
and safety by assisting local agencies within Maricopa County with traffic management
for incidents that impact arterial roadways.
The goals of arterial incident management are:
• Safety of the Traveling Public
• Safety of Responders
• Security of Incident Site
• Timely Information to Public
• Optimum Mobility
• Minimize Clearance Time
The REACT goals are:
• Establish Incident Scene Safety
O Responders
O Motorists, Pedestrians
• Improve Traffic Mobility
o Traffic Management
o Traveler Information
• Provide emergency mutual aid to our partner cities with traffic incident
management and respond to 95% of requests.
Majority of REACT calls are vehicle accident-related, but other requests for response
have also included wild land and house fires, homicide scenes, Haz Mat, criminal
investigations and weather-related damage.

The Phoenix region is nationally known for the cooperation and mutual aid
arrangements among public safety agencies in the region. MCDOT and ADOT are
members of the Phoenix area regional traffic management and traveler information
partnership known at AZTech Tm. REACT was able to build on these strong
relationships, and backed with the ITS capabilities of the AZTech network and
partnership, provides a valuable service that helps to save lives and reduce congestion
during emergency situations on arterial roadways. REACT has demonstrated the
necessity and significance of arterial incident management, the cooperation between
agencies and jurisdictions and the integration traffic incident management teams into
traffic management centers.
