SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project Area Encompasses One of the Most Diverse and Complex Human and Natural Landscapes in the Puget Sound Region
Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment Chapter 4: The Project Area’s Environment The SR 520, I-5 to Medina: Bridge Replacement and HOV Project area encompasses one of the most diverse and complex human and natural landscapes in the Puget Sound region. It includes areas in Seattle from I-5 to the Lake Washington shore, the waters of Lake Washington, and a portion of the Eastside communities and neighborhoods from the eastern shoreline of the lake to Evergreen Point Road. It also includes densely developed urban and suburban areas and some of the most critical natural areas and sensitive ecosystems that remain in the urban growth area. The project area includes the following: ▪ Seattle neighborhoods—Eastlake, Portage Bay/Roanoke, North Capitol Hill, Montlake, University District, Laurelhurst, and Madison Park ▪ The Lake Washington ecosystem and the bays, streams, and wetlands that are associated with it ▪ The Eastside community of Medina ▪ Usual and accustomed fishing areas of the Muckleshoot Indian Tribe, who have historically used the area’s fisheries resources and has treaty rights for their protection and use This chapter describes what the project area is like today, setting the stage for the project’s effects described in Chapters 5 and 6. 4.1 Transportation The configuration of SR 520 today, with its inadequate shoulders and gaps in HOV lanes, makes the corridor especially prone to traffic congestion. And, as commuters on SR 520 know, the corridor is overloaded with traffic on a regular basis. Population and employment continue to grow both on the Eastside and in Seattle, resulting in new travel patterns and a steady rise in the number of vehicles crossing the Evergreen Point Bridge. -

Last Link of I-90 Ends 30-Year Saga by Peggy Reynolds, Seattle Times, 9 Sept 1993
Last Link Of I-90 Ends 30-Year Saga By Peggy Reynolds, Seattle Times, 9 Sept 1993 Erica Clibborn's red convertible will be one of the first cars Sunday across the new Lacey V. Murrow Floating Bridge, last link in a project that started before Erica was born. The University of Washington junior, who will be going home to Mercer Island for Sunday dinner, was born in 1973, the year a federal court sent the Seattle-area stretch of Interstate 90 back to square one. By then, I-90 already reached most of the 3,063 miles from Boston to south Bellevue, and the final major segment had been in the works for 10 years. It would be another 20 years before that last 7 miles would be finished. That completion will be marked this weekend with an array of public events, and Clibborn and other drivers should be able to go across the eastbound span by 5 p.m. Sunday. That opening means that I-90 survived the anti-government sentiment of the late 1960s, the mass-transit worship of the '70s and the budget cutbacks of the '80s - even while other urban interstate projects were biting the dust in New York, Chicago, Baltimore, Philadelphia, Washington, San Francisco and Portland. Nevertheless, whether or not I-90 was really needed was subject to debate at all levels. It attracted a formidable enemies list, and was rescued regularly by a cast of hundreds. Without any one of its friends in local governments, on the state Transportation Commission, in the Legislature and in Congress, I-90 could have ended in south Bellevue instead of making it to its junction with Interstate 5 in Seattle. -

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. -

Chapter Three TRAFFIC and SAFETY INFORMATION, and KEY ACCESS MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES
Chapter Three TRAFFIC AND SAFETY INFORMATION, AND KEY ACCESS MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES INTRODUCTION This Chapter gives an overview of the traffic and safety issues associated with the US- 10/US-31 highway corridor in Mason County, and presents key access management concepts. The study area for this Plan begins at M-116 near Lake Michigan in the City of Ludington and proceeds east along US-10 to the county line with Lake County and then also north at the south junction of US-10/US-31 just west of Scottville to the County line with Manistee County. The corridor, which is approximately 38 miles in length affects the cities of Ludington and Scottville, the Village of Custer and the Townships of Pere Marquette, Amber, Custer, Branch, Victory, Sherman, Grant, Free Soil, and Mason County. US-10 and US-31 are classified as U.S. Routes. They serve as primary highways for local citizens in the region, but also serve as a thoroughfare for those traveling across the Lower Peninsula.

Chapter 2 Roads Board Transportation Committee March 26, 2019 William Capers III Department of Transportation Chapter 2 Roads Background ❑ Named for the County Code chapter describing procedures for managing County-owned property ❑ County Code § 2-1-1: “dedicated to public use or title to which is in the name of the Board of Supervisors or the County” ❑ Typically are unimproved non-County maintained right-of-ways, that have not been accepted into the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) Secondary System. ❑ Over 100 Chapter 2 roads in the County that have escrows, potentially many more without escrows. 2 Chapter 2 Roads (Continued) Background ❑ VDOT’s current policy is to not accept new roads in the Secondary System unless they have at least three unique users. ❑ When fewer than four users front a right-of-way, current County Code for each new user requires them to pay an escrow for future construction of a public road. ❑The fourth user of the right-of-way is responsible for constructing part of the public street, using the collected escrows, and providing the difference. ❑ Escrows are managed by Land Development Services ❑LDS also handles requests to build on Chapter 2 Roads. 3 Case Studies Case #1- Washington Street (Springfield District) Case #2- Lyles Road (Lee District) Washington Street Case #1: Washington Street (Springfield District) Braddock Road Section of Washington Street not in VDOT Secondary System Washington Street First First Rd Park Authority Property Washington Street was dedicated by a plat recorded on July 23, 1945 5 Case #1: Washington Street (Springfield District) 6 Nature of Inquiry ❑ No public road on this part of Washington Street. -
