As described in Sections 4 and 5, the recommended improvement projects (Alternative 8) were included in a recommended alternative set model that was compared against the E+C+LP model (see Figure 49 for results). The combination of the improvement projects under the recommended alternative set provides additional capacity on some of the network’s most utilized roadways, while also forming additional connections between them. It is recommended that these individual improvement projects be evaluated in greater detail as part of the planned PD&E study. The planned investment can not provide vehicle capacity adequate to eliminate congestion on the Brandon network, so this study also makes recommendations for transit improvements for the Brandon area, as well as long term investment strategies. An assessment of the potential congestion reduction benefits of a park and ride facility to the south and west of the study area is included in Appendix I.
