The Transit Ready Sector Design greenfield developments to be transit ready over time. Plan for build-out Shift our focus from planning projects to planning sub-regions or area-wide districts In infill areas fill out the system one piece at a time. Think long term

Design greenfield developments to be transit ready over time.

Plan for build-out

Shift our focus from planning projects to planning sub-regions or area-wide districts

In infill areas fill out the system one piece at a time. Think long term

Multimodal Corridor Streetcar as a developer amenity Use of transit to significantly reduced concurrency payments for off site road improvements Phasing development with transit Commitment in the development order including appropriate phasing

Streetcar as a developer amenity

Use of transit to significantly reduced concurrency payments for off site road improvements

Phasing development with transit

Commitment in the development order including appropriate phasing

Multi-Modal Corridor

Multi-Modal Corridor: The Transit Boulevard

Phasing the Multi Way Boulevard In the first phase transit on one side will likely be built primarily as an amenity. Per the development order, transit is built in phase with transit-supportive densities Similarly frontage lanes need only be added when development facing the road begins.

In the first phase transit on one side will likely be built primarily as an amenity.

Per the development order, transit is built in phase with transit-supportive densities

Similarly frontage lanes need only be added when development facing the road begins.

Options for Phasing the Boulevard Minimize infrastructure costs Short term: phase the construction Long term: design phases to minimize tear-outs
