The Capitol Region Council of Governments (CRCOG) is undertaking this minor update of its 2011 Long Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) primarily to comply with federal requirements that Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) update their LRTPs at least once every four years. CRCOG has chosen to do a minor update rather than a full update, for two reasons. The first reason is that the latest transportation legislation, Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21), requires MPOs to coordinate with their state’s department of transportation to develop performance measures and performance targets that will be used in future planning efforts. Because CRCOG’s LRTP was due to be updated before those metrics were ready, the decision was made to postpone a major update until the metrics were fully developed. A second reason for doing a minor update is that MPO boundaries in Connecticut are changing. In 2013, the State of Connecticut initiated a process to reorganize its regional planning organizations (RPOs, who have traditionally been the hosts of the state’s MPOs). The result of this process was that the Capitol Region RPO gained eight new municipalities. Four of the municipalities joined the Capitol Region from the Central Connecticut Regional Planning Agency (CCRPA), and four joined from the Windham Council of Governments (WinCOG). Along with this reorganization, the towns clearly indicated their desire to change the MPO boundaries to match the RPO boundaries. While the RPO re-designation process was complete in January 2015, the MPO process is taking longer. The MPO re-designation process requires that municipalities, and the Governor approve of the boundary change. As of this writing, the municipalities belonging to CRCOG, CCRPA, and WinCOG have all officially endorsed the change. In addition, the Town of Stafford joined CRCOG in September 2010 but CRCOG and Stafford did not undertake the MPO re-designation processes. Consequently, Stafford is not yet officially a part of the CRCOG MPO. In February 2015, the CRCOG and Naugatuck Valley Council of Governments (NVCOG), supported by all the requisite municipal and MPO resolutions, sent a letter to the Governor’s office requesting approval of the boundary change. That approval is still pending. CRCOG anticipates that this process will not be complete until at least June 2015. After the process is complete, the Capitol Region MPO will consist of 38 towns. 1 Transportation 2040 April 2015 Next Steps After the boundaries are officially changed, each of the new regions will need to revise their plans to incorporate their new municipalities. The eight new municipalities will not be incorporated during this minor update as they are not officially members of the Capitol Region MPO. The CCRPA towns are developing an interim plan of their own under the auspices of the Central Connecticut MPO (CCMPO). The four WinCOG towns were not previously part of an MPO, and as in the past, they will be included in the statewide LRTP. The Town of Stafford, however, was included in CRCOG’s 2011 Plan, and will for that reason be included in this minor update. Sometime after July 2015, CRCOG will develop a new LRTP. This plan will incorporate the needs, priorities, and projects from the MPO member municipalities at that time. It is expected but not guaranteed that this will include all 38 municipalities, and will be dependent upon whether or not the Governor has approved the re-designation. The new plan will also be developed using the new performance-based planning process. 2 Transportation 2040 April 2015 MAJOR POLICY DIRECTIONS The Capitol Region Transportation Plan outlines a comprehensive program for improving our transportation system to meet travel needs through the year 2040. For the most part, it is a systems level plan that provides general policy guidance. It defines the Region's greatest needs, identifies which problems are the Region’s highest priority, and outlines how the Region should spend its limited capital funds. The Plan is also the sum of many specific and detailed studies. The recommendations of those studies, such as the Regional Transit Strategy, the bicycle and pedestrian plan, and several corridor studies, are summarized in this Plan. For details concerning existing and future conditions, alternatives analyzed and recommendation specifics, the actual study documents should be consulted. A list of all the studies that contributed to this Plan is found in Appendix A. The documents themselves can be accessed on the Publications page of the CRCOG website: www.crcog.org/publications/transportaton. Policies Reaffirmed. This Transportation Plan reaffirms the Council’s commitment to policies set in Policies Reaffirmed previous editions. It reaffirms the Council’s commitment to More Travel Choices developing a transportation system that offers more and Sustainable Transportation better travel choices, and continues its emphasis on Environmental Justice developing a good regional transit system as an alternative to the automobile. It also reaffirms and strengthens our Transit Emphasis commitment to developing a bicycle and pedestrian system. Better Bike & Walk Options This Plan also includes a strong commitment to linking land Better Systems Operations and use and transportation planning, aimed at creating a Management sustainable transportation system. Continued support for Bradley International Airport, the beginning of a freight planning program, and a commitment to environmental justice are also included. More Travel Choices. The 2015 Regional Transportation Plan continues to emphasize the desire to provide our Region’s residents with more travel options, and to reduce their need to rely exclusively on the private automobile. While the automobile will continue to dominate most travel in the Region, we need to provide more opportunities for people to use alternate means of transportation. With the earlier adoptions of the Regional Transit Strategy, the Regional Bike and Pedestrian Plan, and the opening of CTfastrak, we have taken major steps toward achieving that goal. The Transportation Plan continues to be a true multi- modal plan. Sustainable Transportation System. The Plan continues to emphasize the coordination of transportation policies with the Regional Plan of Conservation and Development, or more generally, linking land use planning with transportation planning. The Plan continues to recognize that a common goal of both disciplines needs to be promoting sustainable communities in the Capitol Region. CRCOG’s transportation program supports livable community goals and the Regional Plan of Conservation and Development. This Plan also includes a commitment to coordination with State land use plans and policies and green infrastructure treatments. Continued Emphasis on Environmental Justice. The Region reaffirms its commitment to address the transportation needs of all its residents including members of minority groups, low-income residents, and transit-dependent residents. This Plan continues to build on the many years of progress since our initial commitment. It continues to include the environmental justice policies and procedures adopted previously and identifies a list of environmental justice issues of special interest. Continued Emphasis on Transit. This Plan reaffirms the Council’s commitment to the Regional Transit Strategy, reflects progress made over the last several years, and includes the results of major transit studies and initiatives. The Plan also supports CTfastrak and the Hartford Line transit corridors and looks to strengthen bus rapid transit by extending CTfastrak to east of the Connecticut River. 3 Transportation 2040 April 2015 Continued Emphasis on Pedestrian & Bicycle Travel. This Plan continues our efforts to promote non-motorized travel modes, focusing on the 5 “E’s”: Engineering, Education, Encouragement, Enforcement, and Evaluation to achieve our vision. Better Systems Operation & Management. This policy continues the emphasis on transportation solutions that are based on improving the efficiency of the existing infrastructure rather than building new infrastructure. As a result of this policy, the Plan includes a financial commitment to system management methods such as freeway incident management, coordinated traffic signal systems, Intelligent Transportation Systems, and access management on arterial roads. New Recommendations. New to this Plan are references required under Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century (MAP-21); and those recommendations from several studies completed since the 2011 Plan, identified below: Route 3 Corridor Study Route 6 Corridor

  • Chapter 6 Bicycle and Pedestrian
    CHAPTER 6 BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES This chapter is a compilation of all bicycle and pedestrian facilities in Connecticut. The maps shown in this chapter will give the reader a perspective of where Connecticut's program is today and a view of where it may go with respect to a comprehensive bicycle and pedestrian system. Trails in Connecticut are designed with connectivity in mind, and are proposed with an interconnected system as the ultimate goal. These maps are to be used, by ConnDOT, to evaluate the suitability of accommodating walkers and bicyclists and to integrate the consideration of sidewalks and multi - use paths into all planning, design, construction and maintenance activities. This chapter is divided into four parts; existing and program facilities, proposed long range plans, greenways and the existing Bike Routes on the Connecticut Bicycle Map. 107 108 EXISTING AND PROGRAMED BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES The general location of the 74 major existing bicycle and pedestrian facilities and enhancement projects described in this section are shown in Figure 49. These facilities were developed by ConnDOT, ConnDEP and local communities. While the majority of these facilities are separate multi-use paths, several are signed bike lane routes that were developed along existing roads in the 1970's. Various funding sources were used in their construction including the use of Interstate funds in conjunction with major projects, local funds, National Recreational Trails funds, enhancement funds and state bond money. The following is a description of these facilities. A series of route maps showing several of these facilities is shown in Appendix A.

    REPORT PHASE IB CULTURAL RESOURCES SURVEY AND HISTORIC RAIL FEATURE DOCUMENTATION BLOOMFIELD GREENWAY MULTI-USE TRAIL BLOOMFIELD, CONNECTICUT Prepared for BL Companies 355 Research Parkway Meriden, CT 06450 By Archaeological and Historical Services, Inc. 569 Middle Turnpike P.O. Box 543 Storrs, CT 06268 Authors: Brian Jones, Ph.D. Bruce Clouette, Ph.D. Ross K. Harper, Ph.D. February 6, 2014 Revised March 20, 2015 ABSTRACT The Town of Bloomfield, Connecticut, is planning construction of Section 1 of the Bloomfield Greenway Multi-Use Trail. The trail runs from Station 100+00 (Tunxis Avenue, Route 189/187) at the north to Station 186+00 (Tunxis Avenue, Route 189/187) at the south (Figure 1). Most of the Base Phase, which measures 8,285 feet (2,524 meters) in length, will follow the former Connecticut Western/Central New England Rail Line. The trail is planned to be approximately 11 feet wide. A 50-foot-long prefabricated bridge will span Griffin Brook, at the location of a former railroad bridge which is no longer extant. The Connecticut Department of Transportation (ConnDOT), Office of Environmental Planning (OEP), reviewed the proposed project and noted that the project area, or Area of Potential Effect (APE), possesses pre-colonial Native American archaeological sensitivity, and contains rail-related historic resources that are potentially eligible for listing in the National Register of Historic Places. ConnDOT recommended that a Phase IB subsurface reconnaissance survey be conducted along portions of the proposed trail under current design that are archaeologically sensitive. ConnDOT further recommended that the eligibility of historic-rail-related features for listing in the National Register of Historic Places be assessed.
