  • Written Testimony Submitted for the PBMVC May 24Th Meeting's Public
    Written testimony submitted for the PBMVC May 24th meeting’s public hearing on potential pedestrian and bicycle projects the City should consider undertaking in the 2012-2014 Capital Budget: -----Original Message----- From: Burke O'Neal [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, May 06, 2011 9:57 AM To: Traffic Cc: Amanda Werhane Subject: PEDESTRIAN-BICYCLE PROJECTS SOUGHT Hello, Here is my suggestion. For the Isthmus Bike Path I would like to see cross traffic on minor roads have stop signs that also state bike path traffic does not stop. It seems ridiculous to have bicyclists slowing down and/or stopping at every block for cross traffic. In my opinion, this should be more like a bike freeway from Baldwin to Blair St. with only stop signs for bikes on busy roads where the stop signs already exist. Sincerely, Burke Burke O'Neal Full Spectrum Solar 1240 E. Washington Ave. Madison, WI 53703 (608) 284-9495 From: Dipesh Navsaria, MPH, MSLIS, MD [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, May 13, 2011 3:02 PM To: Traffic Subject: Ped-Bike Project Suggestion Good afternoon. I would love to see a bicycle path connector going from the Mineral Point/Speedway intersection (or perhaps a bit further north) connecting the Sunset Village neighborhood to the SW bike path. It's difficult to get around the intersection of Regent/Highland/Speedway over to the SW path, and going south to Glenway isn't the most direct route either. If there was a way to place a path at the border of Forest Hill Cemetery and Glenway Golf Course connecting to the SW path, it would keep users coming from directly west (Sunset Village/Hill Farms/etc) having to divert north or south through tricky intersections.

  • Open House Summary May 22, 2008
    Open House Summary May 22, 2008 Treasure Valley High Capacity Transit Study Summary of Open House Participant Comments Treasure Valley High Capacity Transit Study Summary of Open House Participant Comments May 2008 Valley Regional Transit (VRT) and Community Planning Association of Southwest Idaho (COMPASS) hosted a second open house for the Treasure Valley High Capacity Transit Study on May 22, 2008. The study involves three interrelated projects: • Multimodal Center: A facility that brings together many transportation modes and services at a single location. • Downtown Circulator: Transit service that provides efficient connections between primary destinations in the downtown area. • I-84 Priority Corridor: A plan for high-capacity transit services along the I-84 corridor within Ada and Canyon counties. The first open house for the study was held in January 2008. The second open house provided a final opportunity for the public to comment on the location of a multimodal transportation center in downtown Boise. VRT will recommend a location in July. The multimodal center will connect various transportation modes and services. It will be the first of a network of facilities around the Valley. Construction is expected to begin in late 2009 or early 2010. At the open house, the public also reviewed and commented on two alternative alignments for a downtown circulator. Also shown were preliminary considerations for the I-84 Priority Corridor plan. VRT and COMPASS are conducting the study in partnership with Ada County, Ada County Highway District (ACHD), the City of Boise, Capital City Development Corporation (CCDC), the Downtown Business Association (DBA) and the Idaho Transportation Department (ITD).
