The Transportation System The regional profile in Section 3 describes Ulster County as a place, its people, and its businesses. The transportation system exists to serve the travel needs of these people and businesses. Figure 4.2: Ulster County Roadway Functional Classifications This section provides a summary of the modes that collectively comprise the Ulster County transportation system including highways and streets, transit operations, and facilities for non-motorized travel. This section describes the division of travel among these modes, existing safety related issues system wide, and freight movement across highways, railroads, waterways, and pipelines. HIGHWAY SYSTEM ROADWAY CLASSIFICATION AND JURISDICTION Functional classification is a well-established system utilized by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) for grouping streets and highways into classes based on roadway characteristics and intended services. Basic to this process is the recognition that individual roads and streets cannot serve travel independently; rather, most travel involves movement through a network of roads. Thus, it is necessary to determine how to channelize travel within the network in a logical and efficient manner. Functional classification defines the extent to which roadways provide for through-travel versus the extent to which they provide access to land parcels. An interstate highway provides service exclusively for through-travel, while a local street is used exclusively for land access. Figure 4.1 illustrates the functional classification system. Figure 4.1: Functional Classification of Roadways Source: FHWA 68 Ulster County Transportation Council 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan 69 IV. The Transportation System Figure 4.2 illustrates the Ulster County highway system by functional classification. Each roadway has a classification number based on its location, access, and capacity characteristics. Figure 4.4: Centerline Mileage by Maintenance Jurisdiction ii The majority (70%) of roads in UCTC’s MPA are local roads, with 45% designated as rural local and 25% Maintenance Jurisdiction Centerline Miles Percentage designated as urban local. Interstates comprise about 2% of the centerline miles, while other principal arterials comprise 6% of centerline miles. There are more rural centerline miles (60%) than urban centerline NYSDOT 293.85 13% miles (40%) in the road system, which is a reflection of the rural land mass compared to urban developed County 422.06 18% land. Figure 4.3 provides a breakdown of UCTC’s MPA centerline mileage by functional classification. It is important to note that Rural Local streets which are not eligible for federal funds make up 45% of the Town 1368.35 59% UCTC’s road mileage. City or village 123.83 5% Figure 4.3: Centerline Mileage by Functional Classification i Local Parks 0.55 0% Other State agencies 8.96 0% FC Description Centerline Miles Percentage Other local agencies 28.77 1% 1 Rural Principal Arterial Interstate 2.62 0% Private or Restricted Access 7.09 0% 4 Rural Principal Arterial Other 69.28 3% 6 Rural Minor Arterial 19.41 1% NYS Thruway 47.78 2% 7 Rural Major Collector 69.51 3% Other Toll Authority 1.62 0% 8 Rural Minor Collector 188.16 8% Bureau of Fish and Wildlife 0.03 0% 9 Rural Local 1,040.52 45% Army 0.12 0% 11 Urban Principal Arterial Interstate 45.17 2% Total 2,303.01 100% 12 Urban Principal Arterial Expressway 9.59 0% 14 Urban Principal Arterial Other 71.66 3% Functional class and jurisdiction are important not only in relation to operational and maintenance 16 Urban Minor Arterial 59.48 3% responsibility, but also in how roadway improvement projects can be funded. Funding eligibility limitations include: 17 Urban Major Collector 142.88 6% 18 Urban Minor Collector 13.81 1% 19 Urban Local 570.92 25% FHWA National Highway Performance Program (NHPP) can be used only on the National Highway System, which comprises the Interstates, all other Principal Arterials, and all designated Total 2,303.01 100% NHS Connectors. FHWA Surface Transportation Program Block Grant program (STPBG) can be used on any facility except Local Roads and Rural Minor Collectors, thereby excluding 78% of roads in UCTC’s MPA. NYSDOT, the New York State Thruway Authority (NYSTA), Ulster County, the City of Kingston, FHWA Highway Safety Improvement Program can be used to address safety problems on any towns, and villages are responsible for maintaining and operating roadway facilities in Ulster County. The functional classifications described above assists in allocating resources and investment for roadways across public road. these agencies. New York State Dedicated Fund can be used only on State owned facilities. Figure 4.4 summarizes the mileage and percentage of roadways by their respective jurisdiction. Over half The Thruway Authority uses toll revenue to maintain its facilities. (59%) of the roadway centerline miles in UCTC’s MPA fall under the jurisdiction of towns. About 18% are county owned roads, while 13% are within NYSDOT’s responsibility. 70 Ulster County Transportation Council 2045 Long Range Transportation Plan 71 IV. The Transportation System ROADWAY ASSET CONDITION Figure 4.6: IRI Summaries on State TRAFFIC SIGNALS Touring Routes, 2017 Keeping pavements in a state of good repair is a central function of agencies with jurisdiction over roadways.

  • Edwards Rd and Wasson Rd Oakley Square Eastern Corridor
    James Weaver Planners Assignment #4 Niehoff Urban Studio Edwards Rd and Wasson Rd Wasson Rd is a connector street that links Rookwood Commons and Hyde Park Plaza. Vehicles attempting to make the left hand turn from Southbound Edwards Rd. to Wasson Rd often back up onto Madison Rd, disrupting signal timing and creating a dangerous situation for cars stranded in the intersection. Creating a median and eliminating the left turn while still allowing full turning movement from Wasson Rd will eliminate this backup and increase traffic flow on Edwards Rd and on Madison Rd. This diagram shows the location of the proposed improvement, as well as possible alternatives to reach Hyde Park Plaza from the North. Improvements to Markbreit Ave in accordance with the City’s plan for Oakley Square could be one alternative to reach this retail destination. Restricting left hand turns from Edwards Rd to Wasson Rd would alleviate the backups onto Madison Rd. This example shows a landscaped island in place of the turn lane, which also makes the existing crosswalk more pedestrian friendly. Oakley Square The City of Cincinnati recently came up with a plan to redesign Oakley Square. Improvements include widening the square and improving pedestrian and auto oriented movement. It also squares up intersections along Madison Rd. Eastern Corridor Improvements The City of Cincinnati has also proposed improvements to the Eastern section of Madison Rd. The road is widened to allow for a bump out for bus passengers to enter and exit safely. The bump outs also allow for motorists to have an increased view of traffic while pulling out of side streets, increasing safety.

  • Driving on Bad Roads
    Location Trainer Date DEFENSIVE DRIVING BASICS DRIVING ON BAD ROADS We can’t do all of our driving on brand new high-speed expressways. Many roads, especially older country roads, are narrow and poorly surfaced. Others have not been well maintained because of budget cuts. Some are in the midst of repair. Here are some road conditions you may encounter. Poor Surface Conditions Watch out for potholes and bumps in the road. They can damage your steering and cause you to lose control of your vehicle. If there is sand, dirt or oil on the road, drive more slowly. These all reduce traction and steering control. Some roads are extremely slippery, especially when wet or frosty. Overpasses freeze first. Underpasses thaw last. Expect wet leaves on the road in autumn and hot melting asphalt in summer. Both create slippery conditions. Other Road Conditions Some roads seem to specialize in blind curves and hills. Many rural roads are poorly marked so that you must be ready for the unexpected–a hairpin turn, unannounced intersection, or narrow bridge. Other roads are poorly banked making curves especially treacherous. Country roads may be too narrow for two cars, especially around curves. Drive slowly and sound your horn when in these curves. It helps to keep your headlights on as well, even in the daytime. If you meet another car on a one–lane stretch of road with no shoulder to allow passing, the driver going downhill must back up. If a road has a prolonged steep grade, use your low gears to prevent brake failure caused from overheating.

  • BILL CONNER on Their Arrival in Gardiner, Bill Conner and His Family
    BILL CONNER By Raymond D. Smith, Jr. On their arrival in Gardiner, Bill Conner and his family got stuck in the snow. It was 1939 and Bill was nine years old. Born in Grant Town, West Virginia, Bill’s father, William Klein Conner, was a miner with the Federal Coal and Coke Company. At one time, the Federal No. 1 mine was the largest underground coal mine in the world in terms of gross production. As Bill recalls, “We lived in a house owned by the coal mine. They paid my father in scrip [a limited form of currency – in this case metal tokens made up by the mining company in various denominations] and you had to spend the scrip at the company store.” In today’s terms it amounted to peonage. “One thing my father did was get me out of the mines,” Bill says, “Otherwise, I’d probably have been Bill Conner at home in 2008 Photo: Ray Smith All photos courtesy Bill Conner a coal miner today.” Bill’s aunt, Beulah Dorsey, had come to New York from West Virginia sometime earlier. She’d met a man from Poughkeepsie who was a boss with the Board of Water Supply (BWS) of New York City, which was then drilling the Delaware Aqueduct. When the BWS man learned that Bill Sr. had been leader of one of the coal company’s safety squads, he invited him to come up north to teach safety engineering on the aqueduct. Bill, Sr. also ran a shuttle car in the tunnel during its construction.
