The Transportation Plan provides more information on the methodologies used to determine future needs and provides guidance on emerging transportation trends, best practices and various issues. These topics include: » Context sensitive solutions and guidelines » Roadway corridor design principles » Younger driver safety, including teen driving laws » Safe/healthy aging • Aging motorists • Providing transportation alternatives » Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) • Flashing Yellow Arrows (FYA) TRANSPORTATION • Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB) • High-Intensity Activated Crosswalk Beacon (HAWK) • Dynamic Speed Display Signs (DSDS) • Video vehicle detection systems • Dynamic Message Signs (DMS) • Red-Light Running (RLR) camera enforcement • Enforcement lights » Emerging trends affecting transportation • Ascent of autonomous vehicles • Electric vehicles and charging stations • Drones or unmanned aerial vehicles • Advanced telecommunications • Resilience/sustainability » Transportation demand management 96 Woodbury 2040 Comprehensive Plan August 2019 GUIDING PRINCIPLES 7 The City commits to the following guiding principles, which highlight community values and technical expertise regarding transportation in the City. They also provide a long-term vision for the ongoing implementation, reinvestment, management and use of the City’s transportation systems. Safety and Efficiency Provide safe and efficient movement of people and goods in and through the City by planning and designing transportation facilities to meet projected travel demand for all modes. Effective planning, design and implementation of transportation projects will reduce congestion and increase safety. Annual updates to the City’s Capital Improvement Plan, performing Traffic Impact Studies and conducting regular traffic counts indicate operational needs of the City’s transportation systems. The City will coordinate with the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDoT), Washington County, Metro Transit and other agencies to ensure planning for transportation systems under their jurisdiction are properly implemented. TRANSPORTATION Multi-Modal Approach Support alternative modes of travel, including transit, pedestrian, and bicycle travel, to help Woodbury residents access jobs outside the City, non-residents access jobs and services within Woodbury, and local trips within the City and surrounding area. A diverse array of transit options can not only offer convenience and accessibility, and encourage healthy lifestyles, but can also reduce the need to expand roadways and limit fuel consumption and air pollution. Support will be provided for existing transit services and new development of transit systems will be encouraged. Trails will be designed on both sides of all major roadways to increase pedestrian and bicyclist mobility and safety. Livability Definition Address social, environmental, and economic impacts associated with Roadway Corridor Design the transportation system using effective planning. Timely planning for Principles: transportation system improvements to limit congestion and avoid overbuilding The Roadway Corridor Design Principles the network ahead of need provides a sustainable transportation system approach. were created with an interdisciplinary Transportation planning efforts will support guiding principles in the 2040 approach to better align roadway corridor Natural Resources chapter. Woodbury is committed to reducing contributions design and construction practices with the City’s values and emphasis on all of greenhouse gases, promoting clean energy opportunities, protecting and users and stakeholders. Included in the enhancing air quality, and protecting and improving water quality. According to the report are design templates for the City’s 2014 Regional Indicators Initiative Report and Xcel Energy’s Community Energy roadway corridors and recommendations regarding the elements of the templates Report transportation makes up 40 percent of total greenhouse gas emissions; this and how to use them in corridor design. is almost exclusively attributable to car and truck travel. Utilizing the Roadway Corridor Design Principles will address functionality while limiting impacts to livability. Livability impacts will be limited by applying emerging technologies, electric vehicles and intelligent transportation system applications to reduce congestion and promote alternative transportation. August 2019 Woodbury 2040 Comprehensive Plan 97 Integration and Coordination 7 Coordinate transportation and land use planning such that transportation facilities efficiently match land use requirements, and vice versa. Transportation planning is a collaborative effort among the City of Woodbury, its residents and businesses, and other government organizations. Using this approach will ensure a context sensitive solutions process. EXISTING TRANSPORTATION CONDITIONS Roadway Network Woodbury’s most important links to the regional roadway network are through two interstate facilities: I-494, which runs generally north-south through the northwest corner of the City; and I-94, which runs east-west along the northern border of the City. In addition to these facilities, a number of key roads are important in terms of their connection or relationship to the interstate network. Examples include major north-south routes (Woodbury Drive and Manning Avenue) to I-94 and major east-west routes (Tamarack Road and Valley Creek Road) to I-494. TRANSPORTATION Jurisdictional Classification Roadways are classified by which level of government has jurisdiction over a given facility. Three levels of government have roadway jurisdiction in the City: MnDOT, Washington County and the City of Woodbury. MnDOT owns/maintains the Trunk Functional Roadway Classification Highway (TH) system. Washington County owns/maintains the County State Aid Diagram Highway (CSAH) and County Road (CR) system. The City owns/maintains the local streets, including Municipal State Aid (MSA) streets. Cities in Minnesota receive federal funding through the state MSA program to improve and maintain MSA streets designated by each city. Typically these facilities are collector or arterial roadways. MSA design and maintenance requirements are established by MnDOT. Figure 7-1 shows the jurisdictional classification of roadways in Woodbury. Existing Functional Classification The functional classification system is used to categorize a roadway and street network which distributes traffic from neighborhood streets to collector roadways, then to arterials and ultimately to the metropolitan highway system. Roads are placed into categories based on a combination of the degree to which they provide access to adjacent land and the degree to which they provide movement of “through” Metropolitan Council Roadway traffic. Functional classification is a traditional cornerstone of transportation Classification Standards Diagram planning. Within this approach, roads are located and designed to perform their designated function. The functional classification system used in the City of Woodbury conforms to the Metropolitan Council standards (Figure 7-2). These classifications address the function of all state, county and city streets from a standpoint of the safe and efficient movement of traffic through the City, while providing satisfactory access to residents and businesses. The primary classifications with brief definitions are: 98 Woodbury 2040 Comprehensive Plan August 2019 Figure 7-1 Existing Roadway Jurisdiction Classification Landffallll Oakdalle Lake Ellmo ¨¦§94 Figure 7-1.

    Review of Congestion Pricing Experiences A Report to the Federal Highway Administration July 2010 Vinayak V. Dixit, Rami C. Harb, Glenn W. Harrison, Donald M. Marco, M. Seph Mard, A. Essam Radwan, Elisabet E. H. Rutstrom, and Mark P. Schneider* Georgia State University (Harrison, Mard, Rutstrom, Schneider) Louisiana State University (Dixit) University of Central Florida (Harb, Radwan, Marco) * Authors are listed alphabetically. The report is prepared as part of the project “Experiments on Driving under Uncertain Congestion Conditions and the Effects on Traffic Networks from Congestion Pricing Initiatives” which is funded under the “Exploratory Advanced Research Program” as Collaborative Agreement DTFH61-09-H-00012 Contact Person: Dr. Essam Radwan, P.E., Professor of Engineering Center for Advanced Transportation Systems Simulation Department of Civil, Environmental, and Construction Engineering University of Central Florida Orlando, FL 32816-2450 Email: [email protected] 1 Review of Congestion Pricing Experiences Traffic congestion is a major problem in many urban areas. According to the Texas Transportation Institute (TTI, 2009), the average American driver lost 36 hours in 2007 sitting in congestion, wasting an average of 24 gallons of fuel. The average losses per driver in cities where the population exceeded one million were 25% higher. These costs were quantified into a national productivity loss of $87.2 billion, a four-fold increase (in 2007 dollars) from 1982. This figure does not take into account local air quality degradation due to the burning of the wasted fuel; though that externality is partly mitigated by the recent push towards electric and hybrid vehicles and the ongoing increases in fuel efficiency standards (Halsey, 2010).

  • Cobblestone Buildings: Their Nature in General
    Cobblestone Buildings: Their Nature in General As Rich and Sue Freeman say so well in the introduction to their book Cobblestone Quest, Upstate NY residents drive by cobblestone houses and usually give them very little thought. Most people barely recognize that this area was the pre-Civil War birthplace of a new form of construction. It’s a method that remains peculiar to our region with over 90% of the cobblestone buildings in the entire United States being located within a 65-mile radius of Rochester, New York. Estimates vary, but approximately 700 to 1,200 cobblestone buildings were built in the United States. Between 600 and 900 of them are in New York State, spread over 25 counties, spanning from the Hudson River to Niagara Falls.1 Using an Ice Age residue of glacially-rounded native stones, pioneer craftsmen in the middle third of the nineteenth century perfected a form of folk art that was without precedent in America.2 This cobblestone craft that developed in this greater Rochester area flourished, spread and died out within less than half a century. Nevertheless, it left its stamp permanently on this region. According to Rich and Sue Freeman, who wrote the book Cobblestone Quest in 2005, it holds a place in history as the last generation of completely hand-built houses.3 While this article is dealing with cobblestone buildings as a construction method—not an architectural style—it can be said that most cobblestone buildings are Greek Revival in style. Those constructed before 1835 were, however, usually in the Federal style.

  • Flexibility in Highway Design
    Flexibility in Highway Design U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration Page i This page intentionally left blank. Page ii A Message from the Administrator Dear Colleague: One of the greatest challenges the highway community faces is providing safe, efficient transportation service that conserves, and even enhances the environmental, scenic, historic, and community resources that are so vital to our way of life. This guide will help you meet that challenge. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) has been pleased to work with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials and other interested groups, including the Bicycle Federation of America, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and Scenic America, to develop this publication. It identifies and explains the opportunities, flexibilities, and constraints facing designers and design teams responsible for the development of transportation facilities. This guide does not attempt to create new standards. Rather, the guide builds on the flexibility in current laws and regulations to explore opportunities to use flexible design as a tool to help sustain important community interests without compromising safety. To do so, this guide stresses the need to identify and discuss those flexibilities and to continue breaking down barriers that sometimes make it difficult for highway designers to be aware of local concerns of interested organizations and citizens. The partnership formed to develop this guidance grew out of the design-related provisions of the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of 1991 and the National Highway System Designation Act of 1995. Congress provided dramatic new flexibilities in funding, stressed the importance of preserving historic and scenic values, and provided for enhancing communities through transportation improvements.

  • Pearl District Existing Conditions Report
    Pearl District Access and Circulation Plan Existing Conditions Report Introduction This report reviews existing conditions related to land use and transportation in the study area. The Pearl District is located within the larger River District Urban Renewal Area, and is bordered by NW Broadway Avenue to the east, Interstate 405 to the west, W Burnside to the south, and the Willamette River to the north (Map 1). Below is a brief summary of existing conditions. For more detailed discussion of the transportation issues in the area, additional information, data, and maps are provided following the summary. Summary The Pearl District has street system and urban form characteristics that are similar to the Downtown and Old Town/Chinatown neighborhoods, with generally the same 200‐foot by 200‐foot block grid, and dense, mixed commercial/residential development. However, unlike its neighbors, much of the Pearl has been almost entirely rebuilt over the last 15 years with a predominance of residential construction. Fueled by infrastructure investments and a set of policies and development agreements following the River District Urban Renewal Area’s creation in 1998, the District has experienced rapid residential and commercial growth. The urban neighborhood built through these efforts has become a national model for inner city redevelopment. The District has many of the transportation characteristics of healthy, mature, 24‐hour mixed use areas, including high pedestrian and transit use, low reliance on the automobile compared to suburban areas, and a mix of residential, office, institutional and retail uses. As a result, Pearl residents, employers and visitors travel half as much by car as the regional average, and have much lower carbon emissions per capita from transportation sources.
