DRAFT Comprehensive Transportation Plan Update: 06/06/2018 version

ACTION PLAN

Volume to Capacity Reduction Each linear project is scored based on the volume-to-capacity reduction from year 2010 to 2040. V/C ratios for the existing year were obtained from the approved regional travel demand model (Triangle Regional Model v5) base year 2010 model network with 2040 socio- economic data, and future year V/C ratios were obtained from a 2040 full build-out model. QUALITATIVE MEASURES Schools and Community Facilities Projects within ½ mile of schools and community facilities were awarded 1 point. Community facilities include parks, community centers, and greenway trailheads. Activity Centers Projects that serve an area designated as Business Activity Center, Neighborhood Activity Center, or Regional Activity Center in the Town’s existing zoning classifications were awarded 1 point. Supports Transit Routes Projects that align with existing and proposed transit routes were awarded 1 point. PRIORITIZATION RESULTS The outcomes of this prioritization process are reflected in Table 5-8 and Figure 5-3 . It is important to note that the prioritized projects shown here are not financially constrained – this list is independent of potential revenues and should be used as a guide to help advocate for future funding. The prioritization process is intended to serve as a tool that allows for flexibility in the order in which projects are implemented. This flexibility allows funding partners such as the Town, NCDOT, and CAMPO to be opportunistic and to take advantage of future revenue as it becomes available. Roadway Facility Improvements Members of Town Council and the Planning and Zoning Board were shown the results of the roadway prioritization process discussed above, and used the results to inform the classification of projects as near-term, mid-term, and long-term. The full list of prioritized roadway recommendations is included in Table 5-8 and shown in Figure 5-3 . Prioritization is an effective way to help guide the allocation of future resources. However, the ultimate timeline for implementing these improvements is subject to funding availability. Responsibility for implementing these improvements will be a blend of State, local, and private funding and management.
