The document discusses transportation planning for the Michigan Street Corridor. It outlines 10 guiding principles, values, and indicators to evaluate transportation alternatives. Alternatives were developed for intersections, interchanges, bike routes, and transit. Modeling found congestion would still occur without mode shift. Refined alternatives are being evaluated using metrics like traffic levels, pedestrian environment, stormwater quality, and emissions. The next steps are more analysis of intersection options and selecting short and long term solutions.

Transportation: Inspiring a Sustainability Action AgendaBarry Wellar
The slides in this presentation are for of a keynote address at the 2011 Sustainable Community Summit, Ottawa, Canada. My assignment is “To promote and guide discussion into the barriers and solutions associated with achieving the transportation element of a sustainable community.” As context for the discussion of barriers and solutions to achieving sustainable transport, I begin by explaining why I use “Inspire” in the title. I then list a dozen of my reports in which I examined various issues associated with sustainable transport, and another set of reports in which I previously discussed barriers and solutions to achieving sustainable transport in the City of Ottawa. The final context remark is to remind/inform attendees, and viewers of this presentation, of the ten reports from the project, Methodologies for Identifying and Ranking Sustainable Transport Practices in Urban Regions, which was undertaken for Transport Canada in 2008-2009. Emphasis then turns to two conditions which must be met in order to achieve the transportation component of a sustainable community. First, simultaneously reduce the number of trips made by private motor vehicles, and increase the number of trips made by walking, cycling, and transit. And second, actions are explicitly designed and methodologically implemented to increase transportation system flexibility. The presentation is concluded by a number of slides illustrating how the sustainability of a transportation system is determined by the combinations of transportation system outputs that are demanded by citizens, businesses, and government agencies, and the modes of transportation used by citizens, businesses, and governments to achieve those outputs. In the open forum to follow the presentation, Summit attendees will be asked for words of wisdom, guidance, and motivation to INSPIRE a sustainable transportation transformation across Ottawa, Ontario, and beyond.
This document provides an agenda and overview for a community meeting on transportation. It discusses goals of improving mobility, health, safety, accessibility and affordability. Challenges mentioned include limited road space, overcrowded transit, health costs of inactivity, and climate change. The document outlines directions and targets for various topics like land use, goods movement, walking, cycling, transit and motor vehicles. It aims to make the majority of trips by foot, bike and transit and eliminate dependence on fossil fuels.
This document discusses challenges with achieving connectivity in development planning. It notes that historical highway engineering conventions focused on segregating modes and prioritized vehicle movement, resulting in disconnected street networks. The Manual for Streets provided new guidance emphasizing placemaking and permeability. However, local standards and traffic forecasts sometimes still inhibit connectivity. Additionally, developers may prefer disconnected cul-de-sacs. Nonetheless, principles of connectivity and permeability are increasingly accepted, though barriers remain around outdated standards, land assembly challenges, and objections to change.

Policy Forum Series: Zimmerman - Transit Oriented Development-Addressing the ...Environmental Initiative
This document discusses transit oriented development (TOD) and the opportunities it provides for communities. TOD is compact, mixed-use development located within walking distance of transit stations. It improves quality of life by promoting walkability and access to transit. TOD also increases property values and fosters vibrant, mixed-use neighborhoods. Simply locating development near transit is not enough - true TOD requires transit systems designed to support development through convenient access. The document outlines challenges to aligning transit expansion and development but argues that capitalizing on TOD can drive economic growth and equitable opportunities for communities.

Transit Oriented Development (TOD) has enormous potential to help us rethink the transportation-land use connection and reinvest in communities to become more economically vibrant, sustainable and livable. New regional and statewide tools are being created to help plan for TOD by pooling our knowledge to reduce the burden on local governments. Statewide TOD
design guidelines, the Tri-Rail Station Evaluation Project, and a TOD Resource Guide for Tampa Bay are helping us do more with less. Learn about how these collaborative efforts promote an urban development paradigm shift that optimizes return on our investments.
This document discusses transportation-oriented design principles and Vision LA, a plan to implement these principles in Los Angeles. Transportation-oriented design focuses growth and development around transit in order to reduce driving. It promotes the "4 Ds": diversity, density, design for walkability/transit, and proximity to destinations. Vision LA aims to double density near transit and activity centers, expand transit networks, implement congestion pricing, and encourage alternative modes of transportation like biking and walking. The plan estimates it could reduce vehicle miles traveled, traffic accidents, and fuel costs while saving time for commuters.

Sherry Ryan Transportation Systems Presentationguest1356e0
This document summarizes transportation planning for the Hillcrest neighborhood. It discusses the importance of long-range transportation planning, recent state legislation, and the current transportation context and plans for Hillcrest. The neighborhood currently has high roadway and transit access but limited bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure. Plans aim to diversify the transportation network and right-of-way to better accommodate all modes through measures like rapid bus transit, expanded bicycling facilities, and multimodal streets. Caution is urged around overreliance on level of service results and the constraints of the planning process.
This document summarizes the Miami-Dade SMART Plan, which plans for six rapid transit corridors in Miami-Dade County. It involved analyzing existing land uses, developing land use and transit scenarios, modeling ridership, and selecting a preferred scenario. The process included public engagement and aimed to integrate land use and transportation planning to support transit. The preferred scenario and policy recommendations will guide future development to make transit more viable.
Passenger Rail vs. Multi-Modal Transportation Corridorbudcolligan
The document compares the goals and attributes of a passenger rail system versus using the transportation corridor as a multi-modal path without rail for Santa Cruz County. Some key points discussed are that a passenger rail system would have higher capital and operating costs, take longer to implement, and face more funding risks than a non-rail transportation corridor. A non-rail corridor could accommodate more daily trips as a bike/pedestrian path, have fewer environmental impacts, lower safety costs, and see greater economic benefits from eco-tourism.
The document discusses a regional mobility plan being developed for the Capital Region Transportation Planning Agency. It will integrate transportation and land use planning to create a multimodal transportation network that connects people and places while supporting sustainable development. The plan is being created through data collection, public participation, analysis of existing and future conditions, and prioritizing projects. It will include goals of multimodalism, coordination, economic development, and other factors.
The document discusses Cleveland's Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) system called the HealthLine. It provides details on BRT, including key elements like exclusive transit lanes and traffic signal prioritization. The HealthLine transformed Euclid Avenue, with $6.3 billion in new development, 13,000 new jobs, and over 4,000 new residential units along the corridor since its opening. Ten years later, diverse new developments continue including luxury townhomes, office buildings, a hotel, and major healthcare facilities, demonstrating the project's success in spurring economic growth.

•Each station is unique – development
should be specific to the site
•Any unsolicited interaction with
developers is critical and encouraged
•Think outside the box – different
approaches to integrating development
•Partnership / coordination with member
cities and other government entities is
essential
43. DART’s Role in Transit-Oriented Development
DART’s Role in TOD
• Lead the way in early stages of LRT Planning
• Incorporate TOD objectives into station area planning: transit,
land use, pedestrians, cars
• Leverage DART real property assets to:
Develop future revenue streams with TOD
Direct and concentrate TOD and urban infill around transit
facilities, develop new ridership
Enhance value and maximize function of transit facilities
• Identify potential funding sources for added amenities: TIFs,
PIDs, bond projects, grants
44. DART’s Role in Transit-Oriented Development
