  • Broadway Transit Urban Circulator Study
    Broadway Transit Urban Circulator Study PURPOSE & NEED FRAMEWORK April 30, 2014 version During the planning stages of a transportation project, it is important to outline the problems to be addressed and the goals set by the community, to develop a purpose and need statement for the project. A project need is the transportation deficiency or problem that is identified, and a project purpose is the set of objectives that will be met to address the transportation deficiency or problem. The purpose and need statement documents the problem to be addressed in the alternatives analysis and environmental review process and serves as the basis for the development of project goals, objectives, and evaluation measures. A well-defined purpose and need statement is critical to project planning because it helps define the scope of a project, guide the development and consideration of alternatives, identify potential environmental mitigation measures, provide legally defensible transportation and environmental decisions, and justify projects for programming. Though refinements may occur during future study, the purpose and need serves as an analytical framework for the project as it moves forward. Statement of Need The Broadway Corridor is a multimodal, well-travelled corridor within the city of Oakland stretching from Jack London Square to Interstate 580 (I-580). Two regional transit providers serve the corridor: Alameda – Contra Costa (AC) Transit, and the Bay Area Rapid Transit District (BART). These services provide mobility for residents of Oakland, communities throughout the East Bay and beyond. Thousands of trips pass through the city of Oakland daily along this corridor. The corridor spans several neighborhoods such as Jack London Square, Old Oakland, City Center, Lake Merritt, Uptown, Koreatown/ Northgate, Valdez Triangle, Piedmont Avenue, Mid-Broadway, and the Kaiser and Alta Bates Medical Centers.
