Aviation/96th St. First/Last Mile Plan 1 INTRODUCTION

This chapter describes the intent of Metro’s First/Last Mile Strategic Plan and the anticipated changes to the urban landscape around LAX. Information about terminology used throughout the Plan is described in detail.

This plan proposes safe and comfortable routes to public transit, built upon support and feedback from the multiple lenses of the community. In addition, in February 2018, the Metro Board adopted the Metro Equity Platform Framework – a policy aimed at addressing equity disparities by employing the following strategies agency-wide:

Aviation/96th St. First/Last Mile Plan 7 Terminology

First/Last During a walk audit, community members and other stakeholders investigate and analyze the urban realm, taking note of elements that make it easier or Mile Walk harder to access the Metro station. Typically, a walk audit is performed within a 1/2 mile – or 15-minute walk – from the Metro station being studied. The Audit goal of a walk audit is to see and feel firsthand what it is like to walk and bike around the station area. During the first/last mile process, walk audits are performed early on, helping to build a foundational understanding of what currently works well and what can be improved along the streets around the existing or future transit station. The auditors in this study piloted Metro’s first/last mile web app, an online interface with comment categories and geo- location capabilities that followed participants as they walked. Information, notes, and pictures were captured in real time.

Maintaining consistency with Federal Transit Administration (FTA) policy, a Walkshed walkshed is defined as the area around a transit station which a person would reasonably walk, approximately a half mile radius (or 10-15 minute walk). Tier 2 This plan specifies a selection of “Tier 2 Projects” – four per station area – which were selected for further study. Using community input as a guide, the Projects projects were identified by the City of Inglewood, Metro, and the consultant team. Criteria for project selection are described further in Chapter 4. There is much work already underway in and around the future station areas; these projects augment, rather than duplicate the efforts being designed or constructed currently. Selections intentionally exclude projects already in progress, which are represented as Tier 1 projects.

The first/last mile process identifies a system of “Pathways” where Pathway pedestrian, bicycle, or other recommendations for improvements are concentrated. The goal of the pathway network is to clearly identify a series of routes that people can use, which make it easier and more pleasant to find and access the transit stations. Pathways are striated hierarchically into arterials, collectors, and cut throughs. Pathway types are defined below. Pathway Pathway Arterials are the main connectors used to get to and from the Metro station. Arterials typically feed directly into and connect to the station. Arterials Pathway Arterials are different from the roadway “Arterials” that may be specified by a city’s mobility framework.

Pathway Collectors are the secondary feeder routes that connect to the Pathway Arterials and ultimately the Metro station. Pathway Collectors tend to be Collectors smaller in scale and character than Arterials. Pathway Collectors are different from the roadway “Collectors” that may be specified by a city’s mobility framework.

In some cases, off-street passageways – either those that exist or those Pathway Cut that can be added – make it easier for people to walk and/or bike to and Throughs from a transit station. These passageways are collectively referred to as Cut Throughs. Typically, Cut Throughs shorten walking or biking distance for transit riders. Not all stations have Cut Throughs identified.

INTRODUCING THE STATION AREA This chapter describes the existing conditions that currently surround the Aviation/96th St. Station. As there are several planning documents and projects in progress that affect the future station, this chapter sets the foundation for the project recommendations in subsequent chapters.

14 Aviation/96th St. First/Last Mile Plan Formulating the Plan

This Plan used a data-centered and community-centered process to build first/last mile recommendations for the station area. During the project, the team tested new ways to improve the first/ last mile process, such as: >>A data collection web application to increase walk audit efficiency >>A project prioritization step (Tier 2 projects) to advance selected first/last mile improvements for implementation >>An online project dashboard to promote transparency and engagement

The following pages detail each stage of the first/last mile process and the involvement from Metro, the consultant team, LAWA, the City of Los Angeles, the City of Inglewood, and the community.

In this way, the web app allowed auditors not only to comment on problems that need to be addressed (barriers), but also to reflect on elements that they felt were positive (strengths), and specific ideas for improvement (ideas). Once the main category was selected, auditors gave further detail using multiple choice options. On the back end, the project team could track responses in real time, compare responses, and quickly tally survey inputs to the post-audit questions integrated into the web app.

Metro’s longer term goal is to develop the web app for use in all first/last mile projects, thus building a data set of existing conditions observed in walk audits around the County.

The Downtown Aviation/96th St. Station. Inglewood Station ranked the highest (30% of respondents), followed by the Crenshaw Station (20% of respondents) and the Fairview Heights Station (13% of respondents). Most respondents stated that they would use the new rail-line to get to special events (50%) and work (48%). Following these initial questions, participants were asked about streets surrounding the station they are most likely to use in the future. When asked about the types of first/last mile improvements that were most needed, the top three responses were pedestrian lighting (75%), improved sidewalks (70%), and signalized crosswalks (67%). (Note: participants were allowed to select more than one response to this question). The project team used findings from the survey to develop the final pathway network.

Aviation/96th St. First/Last Mile Plan 39 NEXT STEPS

This chapter outlines the next steps for implementation of the pathway network and project recommendations.

40 Aviation/96th St. First/Last Mile Plan Implementation

Through the First/Last Mile Metro Board Motions 14.1 and 14.2, Metro transit projects are required to integrate first/last mile improvements in project planning and delivery.

Action steps presented in this plan will be pursued at the direction and discretion of the Metro Board of Directors. Successful first/last mile implementation at this station requires partnership from various agencies. Metro will aim to work with the different stakeholders to develop implementation options for first/last mile improvements identified in this plan.

The Aviation/96th St. Station First/ Last Mile Plan will be finalized through the adoption of the plan by the Metro Board of Directors. Metro will remain as a partner and advisor to support implementation of first/ last mile improvements that emerge from this plan.

Aviation/96th St. First/Last Mile Plan 41 LESSONS LEARNED This chapter describes the process taken and any lessons learned throughout the development of this Plan. Lessons listed here will be especially important as Metro continues to execute additional first/last mile studies and begins to develop station area plans for the rest of the County network.
