THE PLANNING PROCESS AND PURPOSE OF THE PLAN This Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) has been developed in coordination with and as an element of the 2005 Campus Master Plan of the University of Wisconsin- Madison. It both responds to and helps shape the overall development plan for the campus over the next 20 years and beyond. Unlike most municipal or regional plans, this transportation plan does not call for any new roadway capacity or additional parking. It does include plans for intersection improvements—mostly to help pedestrian movement—and road realignments to boost connectivity. Parking will remain capped at its current level of approximately 13,000 spaces and virtually all of the specific improvements and program changes called for in this plan are strategies designed to make travel without a private motor vehicle safer and more convenient. For that reason, this long range plan is also the University’s Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan. The University has long demonstrated its commitment to TDM and has created TDM plans for specific building projects, notably the Kohl Center and Camp Randall. In 2006 the United States Environmental Protection Agency recognized the University of Wisconsin-Madison with an award for being a Best Employer for Commuters. However, it has never had a formal and comprehensive transportation demand management plan for the University as a whole. This plan will act as a guide to the University’s own goals for improving an already stellar TDM program, and respond to a new City of Madison ordinance requiring TDM plans in association with major developments.

  • The Architecture of the Illusive Distance Amir H
    The Architecture of the Illusive Distance Amir H. Ameri Sounding Space From early to mid 1930s, movie-theater design in the United States underwent a profound transformation. By the end of the decade, new movie-theaters bore little resemblance to the movie-theaters of the preceding decade (Figure 1 & Figure 2). The call for change had come at least as early as 1927 from, among others, Seymour Stern, the noted film critic. However, it was not until the early 1930s that the movie palaces of the preceding decade were supplanted by a new movie-theater design, of which Benjamin Schlanger’s Thalia Theater of 1932 was a pioneering example. The call for change in movie-theater design and its eventual realization coincide all too conspicuously with the introduction and eventual widespread adoption of sound in movies. Although introduced to a wider audience in 1927, it was not until the early 1930s that the initial technological challenges were overcome, the novelty dissipated and the “talkies” became merely movies.1 The initial Vitaphone or sound-on-disk technology proved notoriously unreliable for keeping image and sound in sync.2 It was not until the early 1930s, when it was abandoned in favor of sound-on-film technology that the synchronization problems that besieged early “talkies” were finally overcome.3 It took equally long to realistically reproduce the human voice. It is approximately at this latter date that a new movie-the- ater design comes into vogue. In the meantime, Alexander Bakshy’s complaint about being “treated to hollow and squawking and lisping voices, and even to imperfect synchronization” remained commonplace.4 Significant as the introduction of sound was and closely as it was followed by calls for change in movie-theater design, besides their temporal coincidence, movie- theater historians have found no apparent connection between the widespread adop- tion of sound and the advent of a new movie-theater design.
