Mobility and Safety Multimodal Facilities

Multimodal facilities provide non-vehicle connections to destinations and activity centers. Multimodal facilities in the redevelopment area include sidewalks, bicycle lanes, and connections with Hillsborough Area Regional Transit Authority (HART) routes and stops. Sidewalks are available along W Linebaugh Avenue, W Waters Avenue, and Anderson Road. There are also fragmented portions of the sidewalk located along Sligh Avenue, Benjamin Road, and local roads throughout the redevelopment area ( Figure 12 ). Bicycle facilities are also present in the redevelopment area. Bike lanes are available on W Linebaugh Avenue, W Waters Avenue, W Hillsborough Avenue, Hoover Boulevard, and Anderson Road. Unfunded multimodal improvements include the Kirby Canal Trail which is proposed to follow the canal through the redevelopment area and connect to the Town N Country Greenway. HART provides transit service in the redevelopment area via Route 16 on Waters Avenue and Route 34 on E Hillsborough Avenue. Along these routes, the stops at the intersection of Waters Avenue & Comfort Suites and Waters Avenue & Woodland Corporate Boulevard have the highest daily average ridership activity in the redevelopment area ( Figure 13 ). Funded transit improvements identified in HART Transit Development Plan (TDP) in the redevelopment area include 15-minute frequency enhancements for Route 34 and the addition of Sunday service for Route 16. A new on-demand service area for HART’s HyperLINK service is also identified as a funded TDP improvement in the redevelopment area.
