  • What Is Communities in Motion?

    What Is Communities in Motion?

    1 What is Communities in Motion? 2 3 Communities in Motion is the regional long-range transportation plan for Ada County and Canyon 4 County. With the support of the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD), it also considers regional 5 transportation corridors in Boise, Elmore, Gem, and Payette Counties. The plan supports a vision, 6 goals, a new transportation/land use scenario, and a commitment to enhancing regional corridors. 7 8 The major reason for Communities in Motion is to promote a future transportation system that supports 9 the type of community we want, identifies funding needs, and protects corridors. In addition the 10 federal government requires that COMPASS, as the metropolitan planning organization (MPO) for 11 the urbanized areas in Ada County and Canyon County, prepare a regional long-range transportation 12 plan to enable federal funding for roads, transit and pathways in our region. This plan needs to be 13 updated at least every four years. 14 15 COMPASS began the planning process in late 2003. In early 2004, in an effort to plan transportation 16 systems that meet the needs of the growing communities in the Treasure Valley, COMPASS 17 partnered with ITD to expand the planning area to include Boise, Elmore, Gem, and Payette 18 Counties – in addition to Ada County and Canyon County. The partnership between COMPASS, its 19 members, local governments in the region, and ITD was an innovative approach that evaluated 20 various transportation modes and policies for maintenance, improvements, and development. This 21 process enabled true regional planning in Southwest Idaho. 22 23 Communities in Motion Vision and Goals 24 We envision a Treasure Valley where quality of life is enhanced and communities are connected by an 25 innovative, effective, multi-modal transportation system.

    South Corridor Plan Appendices

    APPENDIX A: Idaho 55 South Corridor Turn Lane Warrant Study Appendix A | Idaho 55 South Corridor Plan Turn Lane Warrant Study APPENDIX A: Idaho 55 South Corridor Turn Lane Warrant Study In summer 2011, Idaho Transportation Department (ITD) District 3 Traffic Section staff collected intersection data for six intersections on Idaho 55 between Nampa and Marsing. The cross streets from west to east were: Pride Lane, Chicken Dinner Road, Pecan Lane, Wagner Road, Riverside Road and Kimball Road. In fall 2013, additional data was collected at the Hoskins Road intersection. ITD Traffic Manual Section 451.00 was used to determine if turn bays were warranted at the seven intersections studied. The criteria called for design hourly volume to be used. Instead, collected data was used instead of the design hourly volume because the design hourly volume is an estimate and the actual count data is a better representation. Also, Section 451.00 is intended to be used for turn lanes for new approaches; the intersections studied are existing approaches. Two graphs were constructed for each intersection: one for each left turn and one for each right turn. In each graph, a line or point that crosses the determination line indicates that a turn lane is warranted. Idaho 55 and Hoskins Road (3-leg T-intersection, no east leg): Hoskins Road: Left-Turn Lane Warrant 450 400 350 300 250 200 150 100 Number of Vehicles of per Number Hour Vehicles 50 0 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 Number of Left Turning Vehicles Eastbound Determination Line A left-turn bay is warranted for the northbound travel lane.

Final Approval and Acceptance Dean of College of Graduate Studies: ______________________________ Date: _________________ Jie Chen, Ph.D. iii Abstract During certain high-travel days on national holidays, state highways experience a surge in traffic flow and vehicles begin forming large platoons. When the platooned traffic pass through rural intersections, vehicles on the minor approach attempting to turn onto the major state highway are subjected to excessive delays. This research documents the characteristics of holiday traffic at different locations in Idaho and presents alternative intersection treatments to alleviate congestion at rural intersections during increased traffic volume on high-travel days.
