MULTIMODAL CORRIDOR ANALYSIS. As the population in the region grows and congestion increases, the long term solutions that are proposed for urban corridors become more complex from a mobility, engineering, and cost perspective. In addition, federal regulations strongly encourage the analysis of multimodal solutions, which include roadway improvements, public transportation, bikeways, and pedestrian facilities. The ENGINEER shall develop alternative scenarios and analyze, compare, and evaluate them through various measures of effectiveness (MOE). Development of Goals and Objectives for Corridor Analysis – The ENGINEER shall be tasked to give the current physical and operational characteristics of the corridor to be looked at, specific goals and objectives will be determined through a consensus of the stakeholders, including Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), user groups, Xxxxxxxx of Commerce, and other interest groups. Examples of potential goals include mobility enhancement, increased reliability, air quality improvements, economic development, urban form and environmental justice. Existing urban patterns, expressed in current land uses and densities, and travel patterns will play an important role in determining goals. Development and Derivation of Measure of Effectiveness – The ENGINEER shall develop Measures of Effectiveness (XXXx) to measure strategy effectiveness for the pre-established goals to be achieved from the specific corridor analysis. DocuSign Envelope ID: F5521467-ECBA-4D51-AE58-E0461126F7CF Contract No. 36-6RFP5449 PSoft Contract 6320 These XXXx will adequately compare multimodal alternatives. Thus, they should not be limited to traditional roadway alternative analysis where typically level-of-service (LOS) and average vehicle speeds are considered. True multimodal analysis requires that person-trip performance, such as average person-trip travel time, be determined and evaluated as well.

The Engineer shall use the guidance provided by the latest edition of HCM for evaluation of alternative modes and development of performance measures. The Engineer shall prepare a document that describes the methodology and assumptions used for demand estimation and operational modeling. • Development of Alternative Scenarios for the Corridor – The Engineer shall, depending on the specific needs and characteristics of the corridor develop and, present different scenarios that represent potential multimodal alternatives. The analysis shall include the No-Build scenario as a reference point. Each scenario shall be developed with sufficient engineering and operational detail to allow the travel demand model to simulate the impact of the proposed solutions. The Engineer may consider use of innovative intersections to mitigate access and operational issues and perform the necessary operational studies. • Travel Demand Model Forecasts - The Engineer shall use the MPO’s travel demand model to test the alternative proposed scenarios. The Engineer shall be prepared to execute individual elements of the TDM (trip generation, trip distribution, mode choice, and assignment) or all of them. Data will be extracted, by the Engineer, from each model run to prepare the comparison of all scenarios based on the predetermined XXXx. If available, the Engineer may use other travel demand models, subject to approval by the STATE. • Deliverables: Analysis reports Presentations
