Goal 1: Safety. Support projects and policies to reduce crash fatalities and serious injuries, improve overall comfort levels while traveling within the study area, and reduce bike and pedestrian crashes. Objectives: Reduce crash fatalities and serious injuries by identifying high crash hot spot segments/intersections and common safety themes. Uncover underlying travel hazards using public input to improve study area travel comfort levels. Identify deficiencies in illumination, striping, signage, and other elements to reduce bike and pedestrian crashes. Identify mitigation strategies to address hazardous roadway conditions. Goal 2: Connectivity. Improve mobility throughout the study area by enhancing pedestrian, bicycle, transit, and roadway connectivity and interoperability, and eliminating mobility barriers. Objectives: Improve multimodal connectivity and interoperability through development of street grid enhancements. Identify mobility barriers to improve connectivity and ease of use of the transportation system. Leverage existing transit corridors, infrastructure, and activity centers to develop new transit routes.
Goal 3: Place. Encourage development that supports housing choice, economic development, and transportation options.
Objectives:
Conduct a housing market analysis to identify missing housing typologies and price points and engage the public to determine the types of housing they want to see in their community.
