As seasonal crowds con- tinue to grow, and vehicles continue to strain the Island’s roadways and other infrastructure, transportation planning has focused more intently on alternatives to single-occupant automobile use. At the same time, state and global action in regard to climate change has helped generate Islandwide advocacy and planning efforts that aim in part to reduce fossil fuel use in the transporta- tion sector. Rising sea levels associated with climate change will have a particular impact on the Island’s roadways, some of which will need to be reconfigured or protected as a result of increased flooding during storms. Building upon the previous Martha’s Vineyard RTP, issued in 2015, this update provides both general and detailed analyses of the Island transportation network, including all regular modes of travel to and within Dukes County. It also draws from the MVC’s 2019 Martha’s Vineyard Statistical Profile, which collects a large amount of data related to many aspects of Island life, including transportation. Beginning with section 6, the plan examines each mode of transportation in terms of trends and issues, and for each mode we offer a series of objectives and proposed actions that were developed in collaboration with transportation system administrators, MVC staff, members of the MVC’s Joint Transportation Committee and Bicycle-Pedestrian Advisory Committee, and the public at large. Section 5, on environmental issues; and section 15, on the concept of livability, also include objectives and proposed actions, since both topics should figure prominently in the transportation planning process. Based on our analysis of trends and issues (and within the constraints of state and federal budget projections), this plan recom- mends 18 projects totaling $10.5 million for the years 2025–2029, and and the allocation of funds based on project type for the years 2030–2040. Section 16 includes a table of estimated budgets and a general timeframe for each project, although funding at this point is not guaranteed. The proposed projects will be reviewed by the Massachusetts Department of Transportation (Mass DOT), and those that are approved will be included in the Island’s Transportation Improvement Program (TIP), which is updated every year and details all funded transportation projects over a four-year period. Proposed Funding Allocations: 2025–2040 2025–2029 14% Bike and pedestrian improvements Climate change mitigation/adaptation 44%

It outlines the Vineyard’s transportation issues and outlines proposals to deal with them. The Martha’s Vineyard Commission serves as one of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts’ thirteen Regional Planning Agencies. Ten of these thirteen regional planning agencies are federally designated Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO). The federal regulations require that an MPO be formed in urbanized areas with a population of 50,000 or more. While Martha’s Vineyard as well the Franklin County and Nantucket regions do not meet these criteria, the Executive Office of Transportation and Construction and the Massachusetts Highway Department provide planning funds for transportation planning in these regions, and essentially treat them as MPOs.

  • Cultural Resources
    April 2017 Section 4.D. Cultural Resources 4.D CULTURAL RESOURCES This section discusses the potential of the proposed Mission Rock Project to adversely affect cultural resources. The section describes the applicable regulatory and environmental setting for cultural resources within and around the project site, and analyzes the project’s potential to adversely affect cultural resources, including historical resources, archeological resources, and human remains. The City and County of San Francisco (City) received one comment related to cultural resources in response to the notice of preparation (NOP) (Appendix 1) asking for an evaluation of potential impacts to submerged cultural resources in the project area. This section is based on the background information, historical resource evaluations, and information regarding potential project impacts on historical and other cultural resources provided in the following documents: Historic Resource Evaluation, Seawall Lot 337 and Pier 48 Mixed-Use Development Project, San Francisco, California (HRE);1 the associated Historic Resource Evaluation Response prepared by the Planning Department;2 Geoarcheological Assessment for the Seawall Lot 337/Pier 48 Mixed-Use Project (Geoarcheological Assessment);3 and the Environmental Planning Preliminary Archeological Review: Checklist for the Mission Rock Pier 48 and Seawall Lot 337 Project (PAR).4 These reports are included as Appendix 3-1, 3-2, and 3-3, 3-4, respectively. ENVIRONMENTAL SETTING The project site’s environmental setting consists of the prehistoric and historical context for as yet unidentified archeological resources and a description of known historical resources within the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) study area. For purposes of this analysis, the study area includes the project site and a surrounding one-block radius (approximately 0.1 mile) of the project site.
