“Bumping” or the removal of a business from the TODS program is only applicable for CATEGORY II participants - GAS, FOOD, and, LODGING. 

A business meeting only the CATEGORY II criteria can be removed from the Program if a request for participation is made by another business that satisfies all of the CATEGORY I requirements. 

A CATEGORY II business located within one (1) mile of the intersection as measured for inclusion in the TODS Program cannot be “bumped” from the Program by another CATEGORY II business and will remain in the Program as long as it continues to satisfy the CATEGORY II requirements for the service, provides the necessary service to the motorist, and satisfies the contracted financial obligation to the Program.

A CATEGORY II business located outside of one (1) mile of the intersection as measured for inclusion in the TODS Program can be “bumped” from the Program at the conclusion of their contract period if a request is made by another business of the same service which satisfies all of the CATEGORY II requirements for the service and is located more than 1/2 mile closer to the interchange or intersection as measured for inclusion in the TODS Program.

Summary:

Only for Gas, Food, and Lodging

By any CATEGORY I facility

By CATEGORY II of the same service if located over 1 mile from the interchange or intersection and if net gain by the “bump” is 1/2 mile or greater
