How will the Cornell Master Plan for the Ithaca Campus and transportation study (t-GEIS) relate to one another?
The Draft t-GEIS process and findings over 2006 are expected to inform transportation planning for the campus as well as the planning and stakeholder process for the master plan for their duration. It needs to be understood that the nature of the interaction depends on their respective schedule and timeline of each initiative. Specifically, the transportation study can inform the CMP of the impacts of population growth during the next 5 – 10 years on area-wide transportation systems, and depending on the schedules of both initiatives, of feasible and appropriate mitigations alternatives that may be considered.
