Public Open House

This page is intended to provide an overview of the content that was discussed at the Transportation Plan Open House on May 30, 2024.

INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW

This video provides an overview of the planning process, a brief summary of proposed recommendations, and describes next steps.

PROPOSED FACILITY RECOMMENDATIONS

Facility recommendations are projects intended to improve the major roadways within the transportation system and ensure that they are sufficient to accommodate existing and future travel demands through the year 2045. The recommendations are focused on areas currently experiencing safety or operational issues, as well as areas expected to need improvements to accommodate future growth.

Recommendations are categorized as
COMMITTED and PROPOSED. Committed recommendations are projects that are likely to occur within five years and have a dedicated funding source. All other projects are currently categorized as proposed recommendations, pending public feedback. Projects will be prioritized for funding following this outreach effort.

PROPOSED NON-MOTORIZED RECOMMENDATIONS

Several non-motorized network recommendations have been identified to address multimodal concerns. These recommendations are intended to improve connectivity within the study area for non-motorized users and complement the motorized vehicle network. Some non-motorized facilities may be constructed in conjunction with other transportation projects, while others may be completed as standalone projects.

 

Non-motorized recommendations are categorized based on facility type including Bike Boulevards (Sharrows), Bike Lanes, Shared Use Paths, Widened Sidewalks, and Sidewalks. Several Spot Improvements have also been identified to address specific concerns or challenges at spot locations.
