Glossary
The following serves as a guide to terms used in the Statewide Transportation Improvement Program::
Section 1: Capital Investement Strategy Categories/Asset Categories
The New Jersey Statewide Capital Investment Strategy (SCIS) classifies projects according to the type
of work to be done.
Airport Assets
This classification includes work that is anticipated to preserve, maintain
and improve NJ Aviation facilities for the development of an efficient air transportation system that
responds to the needs of its users and the public. Administration of NJ Aviation System includes Public Use
Airports that consist of a complex system of facilities operated by State, County, Municipal and
private entities.
Bridge Assets
This classification includes projects which are designed to keep existing bridges functioning and in a
state of good repair, including work which rehabilitates or replaces existing bridges to current
design standards. Examples of work included within this classification are:
- Bridge rehabilitation and replacement
- Bridge deck rehabilitation and replacement
- Bridge capital maintenance
- Bridge management
- Dams
Capital Program Delivery
This classification includes program implementation costs for various phases of projects, including
construction, contractor support, planning programs and studies, scoping and design, right-of-way and
utility work, and quality assurance.
Congestion Relief
This classification encompasses work that improves the flow of people and goods along transportation
corridors. Specific programs under this heading include highway operational improvements, bottleneck
widening, missing links, major widening, intelligent transportation systems and travel demand
management.
Local Systems Support
This classification provides for development and implementation of transportation improvements on the local
roadway network. Examples of program categories within this classification are local aid to counties and
local aid to municipalities, bicycle/pedestrian, regional planning and project development.

infrastructure including office buildings, rest areas, maintenance facilities, toll plazas and existing
park and ride locations. Bus stops and train stations are included under Mass Transit Assets.
Section 2: Core Mission
The Department's mission has been broken up into five Core Missions as part of Governor Christie's
Performance Budgeting Initiative. Performance data and expenditures are tied to the Core Missions
listed below.
Infrastructure Preservation
Projects and programs with a primary focus on preserving, rehabilitating, or reconstructing existing
physical assets, such as roads and bridges.
Safety
Projects and programs with a primary focus on improving public health and safety of motorists, pedestrians,
cyclists and other users of the transportation network by reducing transportation-related fatalities
and injuries.
Operations and Maintenance
Routine and regular expenditures required to keep the highway surfaces, shoulders, roadsides, structures,
and traffic control devices in usable condition; maintain facilities; purchase winter operations equipment,
light trucks, cars, and construction equipment; and respond to winter storms and emergencies. This core
mission also include administrative operations such as human resources, budget and accounting, which
support more than one of the core missions.
Mobility and Congestion Relief
Projects and programs with a primary focus on maintaining or increasing the movement of passengers
and goods. Projects and programs that are not safety or infrastructure, but that improve quality of
life.
Mass Transit
Passenger transportation services operating on established schedules along designated routes or lines
with specific stops and is designed to move relatively large numbers of people at one time.
Section 3: Phases of Work
This classification indicates the stage of development of a project as it moves through the project delivery
process. The phases of feasibility assessment (FA) and preliminary design (PD) are no longer being conducted
on new projects, but some projects have been grandfathered through completion of these phases. The current
NJDOT project delivery process in order of occurrence is problem statement (PS), concept development (CD),
preliminary engineering (PE), final design (DES), right of way (ROW), utilities (UTI), and construction
(CON). The terms below define various phases of work.
CAP (Capital Acquisition)
Term used to denote the acquisition of rolling stock by NJ TRANSIT. Statewide Investment (SWI)—NJ TRANSIT
uses this designation to describe a series of coordinated smaller-scale projects in multiple locations,
and in multiple phases of work, that address a specific mobility issue.
CD/LCD - Concept Development
The Concept Development Phase purpose is to identify and compare reasonable alternatives and strategies
that address a well-defined and well-justified Purpose and Need Statement and select a Preliminary
Preferred Alternative (PPA). The PPA is selected based on several factors, including environmental
impacts, constructability, cost effectiveness, and if the project can be constructed in a timely manner.
This phase involves data collection, internal and external stakeholder coordination, and alternatives
analysis. Along with the PPA, key products that are produced in this Phase include the Purpose and Need
Statement, the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) Classification, and the Concept Development
Report. CD denotes NJDOT Concept Development Phase; LCD denotes concept development by a local entity
(MPO, county, municipality).
CON - Construction
The construction phase refers to the phase or type of work involving the actual building of a project.
DES - Final Design
The purpose of the Final Design Phase is to produce the project’s construction contract documents (i.e.,
Final Plans, Specifications, and Cost Estimate (PS&E) for use in soliciting bids from prospective
contractors, and advancing the project to the Construction Phase. This Phase includes the continuation and
completion of environmental and engineering tasks initiated in the Preliminary Engineering Phase, such as
roadway design, bridge design, right of way and access engineering, utility engineering, environmental
permits and clearances, and community outreach. The completion of those tasks will involve various internal
and external project stakeholders. Stakeholder coordination ranges from onboard project review meetings
with internal offices to efforts with local officials, the general public and other State and federal
agencies. Efforts with the public and local officials are guided by a project-specific public involvement
action plan. The Final Design Phase is completed when the project is authorized for construction, which
initiates the Construction Phase of project delivery.
EC - Design and Construction
Funding is provided for both design and construction costs.
ERC - Design, Right of Way and Construction
Funding is provided for design, right of way, and/or construction costs.
FA/LFA - Feasibility Assessment
A phase of work intended to develop feasible project proposals that produce the best balance among
transportation needs, environmental values, public concerns and costs. The end products of scoping are: a
recommended scheme with a realistic cost estimate; an approved environmental document; reasonable assurance
that environmental permits can be obtained; community support, or documentation explaining why such support
cannot reasonably be obtained; and identification of right of way (ROW) needs and costs. Scoping consists
of two phases in NJDOT: Feasibility assessment and final scope development. FA denotes feasibility
assessment by NJDOT; LFA denotes local feasibility assessment by a local entity (MPO, county,
municipality).
PD/LPD - Preliminary Design
Preliminary design is the process of advancing preliminary engineering and obtaining formal community and
environmental approval of the Initially Preferred Alternative. PD denotes preliminary design by NJDOT; LPD
denotes local preliminary design by a local entity (MPO, county, municipality).
PE/LPE - Preliminary Engineering (PE, LPE)
The Preliminary Engineering Phase involves performing engineering tasks and technical environmental studies
to obtain formal community consensus (through a public information center) of the study and to secure the
approval of the environmental document. If a design exception is necessary on a project, preparation and
approval of the Design Exception Report will occur during this Phase. During the Preliminary Engineering
Phase a number of activities are simultaneously set in motion based on the PPA such as community
involvement (meetings with affected property, business owners), agency consultation, environmental
documentation, design level mapping, and the development of geometric design. PE denotes NJDOT Preliminary
Engineering Phase; LCD denotes preliminary engineering by a local entity (MPO, county, municipality).
PLS - Planning Study
A phase or type of work involving traffic studies needs analyses, corridor studies, and other work
preparatory to project development. See also “Concept Development.”
PRD - Project Development
A phase or type of work used by NJ TRANSIT which is intended to develop feasible project proposals that
produce the best balance among transportation needs, environmental values, public concerns and costs.
PS - Problem Screening
The Problem Screening Phase is the entrance into the delivery process for any potential project. The
purpose of the phase is to investigate a potential transportation problem. A potential problem is
developed into a Problem Statement (PS) and submitted to Capital Investment Strategies (CIS). The sources
of the Problem Statement may include NJDOT Management Systems, Planning Studies, a Metropolitan Planning
Organization, or internal and external stakeholders. This phase involves a Tier 1 Screening, a Tier 2
Screening or a Management System Initiative Screening. If the problem is validated, a recommendation is
advanced for review and approval by the Capital Program Screening Committee (CPSC) and the Capital Program
Committee (CPC).
The objective of the Problem Screening Phase is to effectively, efficiently, and consistently screen
transportation problems in agreement with the Statewide Capital Investment Strategy (SCIS) and project
prioritization criteria. Achieving this goal is expected to produce selective proposals that are consistent
with the SCIS performance related goals, objectives and investment targets for potential advancement while
conforming to State and federal requirements.
ROW - Right of Way (ROW)
A general term denoting land, property, or interest therein, usually in a strip acquired for or devoted
to transportation purposes.
UTIL - Utility (UTIL)
In some cases, the utility relocation work associated with a project must be programmed separately from the
actual construction phase of work. These items are shown under the “Utility” category.
Section 4: Funding Categories
Projects are funded under various funding categories, depending on the type of work.

objective standards for measuring the condition of capital assets, including equipment, rolling stock,
infrastructure, and facilities. All FTA grantees and their subrecipients are required to develop transit
asset management plans. FTA will support this effort through technical assistance, including the
development of an analytical process or decision support tool that allows recipients to estimate their
capital investment needs over time and assists with asset investment prioritization.
SECT 5337 - Section 5337
MAP-21 establishes a new formula-based State of Good Repair grant program dedicated to repairing and
upgrading the nation’s rail transit systems in a state of good repair.along with high-intensity motor bus
systems that use high-occupancy vehicle lanes, including bud rapid transit (BRT). This program replaces
the Fixed Guideway Modernization program (SECT 5309). Projects are limited to replacement and
rehabilitation, or capital projects required to maintain public transportation systems in a state of good
repair. Projects must be included in a Transit Asset Management Plan to receive funding. The new formula
comprises: (1) the former Fixed Guideway Modernization formula; (2) a new service-based formula; and (3) a
new formula for buses on HOV lanes.
SECT 5339 - Section 5339

This capital program provides funding to replace, rehabilitate, and purchase buses and related equipment,
and to construct bus-related facilities. Funds are eligible to be transferred by the state to supplement
urban and rural formula grant programs (SECT 5307 and SECT 5311, respectively).
SECT 5340 - Section 5340
High Density and Growing State Apportionments.
STATE
The “STATE” category is used to show the disposition of funding received from the New Jersey
Transportation Trust Fund.
STP - Surface Transportation Program
The Surface Transportation Program is a federal-aid funding category established under ISTEA, which
encompasses funding previously made available under various smaller federal-aid categories as well as a
broad, flexible component. Funding must be set aside for transportation enhancement (STP-TE).
Sub-allocations must be made to urbanized and non-urbanized areas (STP-NJ, funding provided to NJTPA;
STP-STU, funding provided to DVRPC; STP-SJ, funding provided to SJTPO).
TAP - Transportation Alternatives Program
The Transportation Alternatives Program consolidates funding from FHWA’s former Transportation
Enhancements, Recreational Trails, and Safe Routes to School programs. MAP-21 eliminates the 10
percent set-aside under the Surface Transportation Program for “transportation enhancements” and replaces
it with the new “transportation alternatives” program. Eligible activities are broadly defined and
with respect to transit include construction, planning and design of infrastructure-related projects
and systems that will provide safe routes for non-drivers, including children, older adults and
individuals with disabilities to access daily needs, and historic preservation and rehabilitation
of historic transportation facilities.
TOD - Transit-Oriented Development
MAP-21 creates a new discretionary pilot program for Transit Oriented Development planning grants.
Eligible activities include comprehensive planning in corridors with new rail, bus rapid transit or
core capacity projects.
Section 5: Metropolitan Planning Organizations
Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) are planning organizations that serve as the forum for cooperative
transportation decision making for metropolitan planning areas as required by federal regulations. MPOs
consist of representatives of state and local governments and major transportation agencies. There are three
MPOs in New Jersey:
DVRPC - Delaware Valley Regional Planning Commission
The MPO covering the counties of Mercer, Burlington, Camden, and Gloucester.
NJTPA - North Jersey Transportation Planning Authority
The MPO covering the counties of Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Monmouth, Morris, Ocean,
Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union and Warren.
SJTPO - South Jersey Transportation Planning Organization
The MPO covering the counties of Cape May, Atlantic, Cumberland, and Salem.
Section 6: Air Quality Codes
An alphanumeric air quality (AQ) coding scheme has been developed for projects and programs. The AQ code is
applied by the MPOs as part of the conformity determination and exempt eligibility identification
process.
For non-exempt projects (projects for which no exemption code applies), the first conformity analysis year
following the project’s opening or projected completion is listed (analysis years in the current conformity
determination include 2014, 2015, 2020, 2030, and 2040). The letter following the year indicates whether the
project was modeled (M) or not modeled (NM) in the regional travel demand model or if the project was
analyzed using an off-model technique (O). Off-model techniques are commonly used for projects that
cannot be adequately represented in the travel demand model.
The Clean Air Act regulations also provide for projects that may be exempt from the conformity analysis. An
exempt project is defined as a project that primarily enhances safety or aesthetics, maintains mass transit,
continues current levels of ridesharing, or builds bicycle and pedestrian facilities. There are several
categories of exempt projects, and each STIP page indicates the specific exemption code (note that multiple
exemption codes may apply to a particular project/program). Exempt projects in design phases are classified
under the planning and technical studies category. A list of exempt categories is shown below.
Even though projects may be exempt, the MPOs may include those that represent changes in the travel demand
model and those for which VMT or emissions savings have been estimated, where possible. These projects are
noted by including the analysis year and modeling status within parentheses following the exemption code(s).
Projects for which conformity does not apply (e.g., freight rail projects) have been labeled “NA”. Projects
determined to be “Not Regionally Significant” and do not fit into an exempt category have been
labeled “NRS”.
