The purpose of this 2015 Implementation Plan Update (IPU) is to identify service and facility improvements that address the many changing conditions in the corridor, community, and in the region. These changes include recent updates to forecasted employment growth, population growth, and land uses, which provide an opportunity to reassess the demand for transit service around the Cedar Avenue Transitway. Regionally, Counties Transit Improvement Board (CTIB) project funding eligibility and Metropolitan Council Regional Solicitation project prioritization and selection have also changed, which modifies the availability of these funds for the Cedar Avenue Transitway. As part of the current IPU, goals for the Cedar Avenue Transitway were revised based on feedback from policymakers to better reflect changing conditions in the corridor and in the region, including recent updates to forecasted employment growth, population growth, and land uses.
