Transportation and Connectivity - Future Conditions Assessment and Recommendations Sample Clauses

Transportation and Connectivity - Future Conditions Assessment and Recommendations. The Contractor will utilize the existing conditions inventory, assessment, and preliminary recommendations conducted in Phase 1 (See Task 1.3.2.4. Transportation and Connectivity Existing Inventory and Assessment) to identify potential transportation strategies for enhancing multimodal accessibility on the corridor. The land use scenarios (as described in Task 2.1) for the redevelopment areas in the Core Study Area and Residential Edges will incorporate preliminary transportation strategies that will later be refined and tested for the preferred corridor-wide land use scenario. To assess the future conditions of the transportation system, based on the preferred corridor-wide land use scenario, the Contractor will utilize the MWCOG travel demand forecasting model. In Phase 2, the model will be used to understand 1) the 2045 adjusted baseline conditions, which takes into account the County’s growth projections (derived from the preferred corridor-wide land use scenario), existing roadway conditions and existing plans for roadway improvements and 2) the 2045 future conditions, which takes into account the County’s growth projections (derived from the preferred corridor-wide land use scenario), future roadway conditions and future plans for roadway improvements based on the proposed transportation strategy for the preferred corridor-wide scenario. At the end of Phase 2, a Preliminary Concept Plan will be presented to the community, based on the preferred corridor-wide land use scenario. In Phase 3, after significant input on the preliminary plan has been received, the model will be used one more time to update the 2045 future conditions, which will incorporate a refined corridor-wide land use scenario and transportation strategies.

Transportation and Connectivity - Future Conditions Assessment and Recommendations. To assess the future conditions of the transportation system, based on an interim corridor-wide land use scenario, the Contractor will utilize the MWCOG travel demand forecasting model. In Phase 2, the model will be used to understand 1) the 2030 adjusted baseline conditions, which takes into account the County’s growth projections (derived from the interim corridor-wide land use scenario), existing roadway conditions and existing plans for roadway improvements and 2) the 2030 future conditions, which takes into account the County’s growth projections (derived from the interim corridor-wide land use scenario), future roadway conditions and future plans for roadway improvements based on the proposed transportation strategy for the interim corridor-wide scenario. At the end of Phase 2, a Preliminary Concept Plan will be presented to the community, based on the interim corridor-wide land use scenario. In Phase 3, after significant input on the preliminary plan has been received, the model will be used one more time to update the 2030 future conditions, which will incorporate a refined corridor-wide land use scenario and transportation strategies.
