  • 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.
