4.3. National Transit Database by Federal Transit Administration The National Transit Database (NTD) is the mechanism through which the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) collects uniform transit performance measure data. Annually, all recipients of Urbanized Area funding and any organization operating urban transit services that directly receives benefits from Urbanized Area funding are required to submit or coordinate the regions transit performance measure information. As part of the CMP, NTD transit performance measures database between the year 2003 to 2010 was downloaded from the NTD website for evaluation of these performance measures for the North Florida region.
4.4. Florida Department of Transportation Level-of-Service (LOS) Tables The FDOT develops the Level of Service (LOS) for roadways with the FDOT District 2 region covering Duval, St. Johns, Clay, and Nassau Counties. The FDOT LOS database contains the base year (Year 2011) AADT and DDHV counts for roadways, the Maximum Service Volume (MSV) values for the roadway type, the base year LOS and annual projections of AADTs and DDHVs for roadways within the FDOT District 2 region over the next 30 years and the associated LOS. This database can be used to identify the facilities that are currently over capacity.
4.5. BlueToad Data The North Florida TPO in partnership with the FDOT District 2 ITS office has deployed Bluetooth devices along major roadways within the North Florida region to obtain real-time data. Figure 4 shows the location of the BlueToad device deployments planned within the North Florida TPO governing boundary. Approximately about 60% of the anticipated deployment of devices was successfully installed by March 1, 2013, the last day available to use in this report. Figure 5 shows the BlueToad devices currently active within the North Florida TPO boundary.
