Transportation
4 | TRANSPORTATION Transportation Policies POLICY 1: Provide a full range of mobility choices. A. Anticipate and benefit from potential commuter rail. B. Plan development that is ‘transit-ready’ around Lancaster’s desired stations. C. Minimize impacts of potential high-speed rail. POLICY 2: Take advantage of Lancaster’s location within regional mobility systems (highways, public transportation, freight, air, etc). POLICY 3: Use Transportation improvements to strengthen key destinations within Lancaster. Introduction The purpose of a city’s transportation system is to provide the safe and efficient movement of people and goods within a comprehensive network of streets that complement the surrounding land uses. In addition to handling current and future congestion, a city’s transportation systems should be both livable and equitable. Creating a livable transportation environment means providing a system that serves people instead of just vehicles. Creating an equitable transportation system refers to ensuring that our transportation decision benefit people at all socio-economic levels. To ensure that Lancaster’s transportation system meets these livability and equitable ideals as the system is expanded, a number of challenges must be addressed. The City will continue to attract residents and businesses and the cities in the surrounding area will continue to grow, which will increase the volume of traffic that regularly travels to and through Lancaster. All of these challenges point to the need for a system that is less focused on the automobile and more attuned to developing and promoting alternative modes of transportation as viable options for mobility. The Preferred Future Land Use Scenario and the growth it is expected to create establish the foundation for the Transportation Strategy. -

1.0 Purpose and Need
South Oak Cliff Corridor Blue Line Extension 1.0 PURPOSE AND NEED This chapter describes the need for transit improvements in southern Dallas and the purposes that the proposed Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) project is intended to serve. The chapter also reviews the planning context and history of local decision‐making regarding proposed improvements affecting the study area and presents the mobility, economic and community development, and environmental objectives to be addressed by the project. 1.1 Description of Proposed Action The proposed action, referred to here as the Build Alternative or South Oak Cliff Corridor Blue Line Extension, is a 2.6‐mile light rail transit (LRT) extension of the DART Blue Line. The extension would consist of double‐tracked light rail, extending from the existing Ledbetter Station to the campus of the University of North Texas at Dallas (UNT Dallas), and include two new stations as shown in Figure 1‐1. The proposed project would provide high‐capacity, efficient, and reliable transit service for local area residents and to the developing UNT Dallas campus. The proposed project would respond to regional growth demands, enhance the sustainability and livability of the neighborhoods surrounding UNT Dallas, promote economic development, and support regional transit connectivity. The South Oak Cliff Corridor Blue Line Extension to the UNT Dallas campus is the final planned line segment for the South Oak Cliff (SOC) Corridor. The existing Blue Line, which began operation to Illinois Station in 1996 as part of DART’s original starter system, consists of 28.8 miles and currently extends from Ledbetter Station in southern Dallas to downtown Rowlett.
