    Chapter 5 – Transportation Last Updated 11/13/2020 A compilation of objectives, policies, goals, maps and programs to guide the future development of the various modes of transportation, including highways, transit, transportation systems for persons with disabilities, bicycles, electric personal assistive mobility devices, walking, railroads, air transportation, trucking and water transportation. The element shall compare the local governmental unit's objectives, policies, goals and programs to state and regional transportation plans. The element shall also identify highways within the local governmental unit by function and incorporate state, regional and other applicable transportation plans, including transportation corridor plans, county highway functional and jurisdictional studies, urban area and rural area transportation plans, airport master plans and rail plans that apply in the local governmental unit. Highway and Streets Network The City of Columbus has an extensive transportation network that is comprised of federal, state, county and local roads. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation classifies each road in the state under the Functional Classification System. Functional classification is the process by which highways are grouped into classes according to the character of service they are intended to provide, ranging from a high degree of travel mobility to land access functions. The City of Columbus is designated as an Urban Area for Functional Classification because the city has population greater than 5,000. The functional classification process of urban streets and highways organizes routes according to the character of service provided, ranging from travel mobility to land access. The functional class system also sub-classifies routes by facility type and by their rural relationship (connecting links of the rural functional class system).

  • Appendix 6-D: Wisconsin Intercity Passenger Rail Station Inventory

    Appendix 6-D: Wisconsin Intercity Passenger Rail Station Inventory

    Appendix 6-D: Wisconsin Intercity Passenger Rail Station Inventory The Wisconsin Rail Plan 2030 Wisconsin Intercity Passenger Rail Station Inventory provides detailed information about each station in Wisconsin. Wisconsin’s passenger rail stations vary in the services offered, condition, accessibility and Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance, as well as connectivity to communities and to other modes. The inventory was conducted to help identify needs and guide future investment decisions. It also provides information on stations close to the Wisconsin border in neighboring states, for informational purposes. Accessibility and ADA Compliance Ensuring that train stations are fully accessible to those with disabilities is a priority and a federal requirement. The inventory considered attributes of accessibility for railroad stations and compliance with ADA standards. This includes: • availability of accessible ADA compliant parking spaces • accessible path to building and accessible building doors • accessible restrooms • ADA compliant platforms: platform surface condition, platform height (should be at least eight inches above the top of rail), platform edge treatments (should be bright-colored tactile strip on edge of platform) • ADA compliant elevators (if applicable) • ADA compliant static directional signage (size, height of sign, etc.) • ADA compliant changeable message signs (i.e. train status, etc.) • ADA compliant public address systems • Availability of wheelchair lifts for boarding and alighting trains Amtrak defines stations in three categories: barriers to accessibility, barrier free, and fully accessible. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) used this as a guide, but conducted its own assessment of accessibility by describing specifically any barriers to accessibility or non-ADA compliant features that need to be remedied.
