  • Touhy Triangle Master Plan Executive Summary
    Village of Niles, Illinois TOUHY TRIANGLE MASTER PLAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Gewalt Hamilton Associates NOVEMBER 2016 Plan Purpose One of the Top Community Issues to emerge from the Niles 2030 Comprehensive Plan was the Village's lack of a 'true downtown area', which was believed to "negatively impact the Village's sense of community, image and identity". In response the Village of Niles has undertaken a proactive eff ort to develop and implement a bold vision for a new town center within the Touhy Triangle. In support of this vision, the Touhy Triangle Master Plan was developed with an aim to achieve the following goals: ▪ Enhance Economic Vitality – the new plan calls for a vibrant, mixed-use, entertainment district with strong commercial uses and modern employment centers. ▪ Foster a Greater Sense of Community – in the future the Touhy Triangle will be a distinct, vibrant place that residents will proudly identify as the 'heart' of their community. ▪ Provide Opportunities for Recreation and Entertainment – new public open spaces programmed with a variety of amenities and activities will anchor a range of active commercial and entertainment-oriented uses. ▪ Promote Arts and Culture within the Village – as a key destination within the region, the new town center will provide a setting for concerts in the park, fairs and festivals, and public art opportunities all set within a rich urban environment. The Village will work in close partnership with area land and business owners, residents, and the development community to achieve these goals.

  • Appendix G Surface Transportation
    Chicago O’Hare International Airport Final EIS APPENDIX G SURFACE TRANSPORTATION This Appendix contains background material, which supplements the surface transportation- related material contained in Chapter 5, Environmental Consequences. This appendix consists of the following sections: • G.1 Existing Surface Transportation Setting • G.2 Future Conditions • G.3 Surface Transportation Methodology • Attachments G-1 through G-5 G.1 EXISTING SURFACE TRANSPORTATION SETTING There are a number of major arterial roadways that border the Airport, such as Mannheim Road (US Route 12/45), Higgins Road (Illinois Route 72), Touhy Avenue, and Irving Park Road (Illinois Route 19). These roadways carry airport-related traffic, but are primarily used for non- airport related trips. Traffic volumes on the roadways surrounding the airport service a densely developed urban area and carry a large number of trips through the area. The high levels of traffic congestion and delays on these roadways, especially during the peak hours, are typical for the Chicago metropolitan area. The congestion and delay in the area reaches a peak in the late afternoon when the commuter traffic in the area overlaps with the airport-related traffic. The level of activity at the airport has grown substantially over the past 30 years. During that time, intensive urban development has occurred in the areas surrounding the airport. Roadway capacity in the area has not kept pace with this growth and development. Congestion is especially severe on I-190, the major access road into and out of the Airport and the only access road to the central terminal area. The large number of closely spaced ramps along I-190 also restricts traffic flow.
