ATTACHMENT A Attachment A = Scope of Work Making the Last Mile Connection Pilot Program (Project) The following is the Scope of Work and outlines responsibilities and deliverables for all Parties responsible for the implementation of the Project. Parties include the San Mateo County Transit District (District), the Peninsula Traffic Congestion Relief Alliance (Alliance), the County of San Mateo (County) and the City of Redwood City (City), each of which is referred to herein individually as"Party"and jointly as '�Parties." Project Description The Making the LastMi/e Connecrion Project (Froject), incivaing the pianning, implementation, marketing, operations, and oversight of a two-year demonstration project, is being funded by MTC's Climate Initiatives grant program. The program will implement a suite of transportation demand management (TDM) strategies in the City of Redwood City to test the contribution that TDM can make toward our regional Sustainable Communities Strategy. The TDM Strategies being implemented under the Project are: • Car Share: Pods will be located at the Redwood City Caltrain Station and two TBD downtown locations • Short-Distance Vanpool: Vanpools from both Caltrain and residential sites to worksites • Telework & Flex-schedules: San Mateo County will re-launch its Flex-schedule and Telework programs, which will be promoted to County managers and employees • Residential and Employer/Employee Targeted Marketing: Marketing for all TDM strategies, targeting residents, employers, and employees. The goal of this Project is that the availability of all these travel options and marketing of new and existing TDM strategies will change both residents' and employees'travel habits away from single-occupancy personal vehicle travel, which will result in reduced vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Mode shift would be evaluated for each individual TDM strategy, as well as collectively by comparing overall mode shift to a control city. An integral part of this goal is a reduction in VMT by five (5) percent in Redwood City. The MTC Climate Initiatives grant-funded Regional Bike Share and Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging Station programs will implement strategies within Redwood City. As part of the Last Mile program, the Redwood City locations of these regional programs will be included in the Project's targeted marketing effort. The Last Mile team will coordinate with the Regional Bike Share and EV Charging Stations project teams to ensure all information included in the Project's marketing efFort is correct and appropriate. All management, planning, and implementation for the Regional programs are under separate contracts with MTC and are not the responsibility of this Project. In summary, the targeted marketing efforts for the Last Mile program will include marketing for other transportation demand management strategies implemented in Redwood City, not strictly limited to the Last Mile Car Share, Short-distance Vanpool, and Telework & Flex-schedules strategies funded through the Last Mile program. In addition, information for the following programs will also be incorporated into the Last Mile targeted marketing materials: 1) MTC Making the Last Mi/e Connection Pilot Program Memorandum of Understanding Page A-1 Attachment A Scope of Work FINAL-July 21, 2011
