Are alternative modes of transportation, such as bicycles and transit service, being considered in the study?
A transportation plan is incomplete if it doesn’t include multimodal considerations. They have emerged as a need within this study because these services and amenities are currently lacking within the US-24 corridor, and because of rising fuel costs and other factors. This study will consider multi-modal land use options at a policy level, to assure that opportunities are preserved within the broad vision for the corridor. Implementation of actual projects/services would need to be considered by decision makers after this plan is complete.
