  • South Boulevard & South Tryon Street Corridor Study FINDINGS REPORT
    South Boulevard & South Tryon Street Corridor Study FINDINGS REPORT City of Charlotte Department of Transportation June 30, 2017 South Boulevard & South Tryon Street 2 CORRIDOR STUDIES In 2016, the City of Charlotte began several multimodal planning studies to enhance pedestrian and bicycle travel on portions of arterials (thoroughfares) in Charlotte. The studies evaluate existing conditions, identify deficiencies, and make recommendations to improve the safety and ease of walking and biking along and across busy streets. These corridors were identified by many criteria including: four or more lanes, a posted speed limit over 35mph, top 15 transit ridership routes, no planned street improvements by other projects in the Community Investment Plan (CIP), and limited pedestrian crossing opportunities. The corridors currently being studied are: ӹ South Boulevard ӹ South Tryon Street ӹ West Boulevard ӹ Parkwood Ave & The Plaza This report describes why CDOT studied South Boulevard and South Tryon Street as well as CDOT’s findings from the study. The study recommendations and implementation schedule can be found starting on page 26. Parkwood Ave & The Plaza (2016) West Boulevard (2017) South Boulevard & South Tryon Street (2016) Figure 1: Corridor Studies in Charlotte South Boulevard & South Tryon Street 3 STUDY BACKGROUND Overview STUDY TIMELINE The South Boulevard & South Tryon Street Corridor Study analyzed the two corridors between Carson Boulevard and Clanton Road. These corridors provide key transportation links into Uptown from several 2016 neighborhoods including Dilworth, Wilmore and South End. Many apartment buildings and businesses have been constructed over the past several years, and the February Study initiated demands on the transportation system in this part of the city continue to evolve.

  • Rails to Real Estate Development Patterns Along
    Rails to Real Estate Development Patterns along Three New Transit Lines March 2011 About This Study Rails to Real Estate was prepared by the Center for Transit-Oriented Development (CTOD). The CTOD is the only national nonprofit effort dedicated to providing best practices, research and tools to support market- based development in pedestrian-friendly communities near public transportation. We are a partnership of two national nonprofit organizations – Reconnecting America and the Center for Neighborhood Technology – and a research and consulting firm, Strategic Economics. Together, we work at the intersection of transportation planning, regional planning, climate change and sustainability, affordability, economic development, real estate and investment. Our goal is to help create neighborhoods where young and old, rich and poor, can live comfortably and prosper, with affordable and healthy lifestyle choices and ample and easy access to opportunity for all. Report Authors This report was prepared by Nadine Fogarty and Mason Austin, staff of Strategic Economics and CTOD. Additional support and assistance was provided by Eli Popuch, Dena Belzer, Jeff Wood, Abigail Thorne-Lyman, Allison Nemirow and Melissa Higbee.

What was once a desired path for Native Ameri- cans and Colonial settlers has now grown into a formidable city emerg- ing Oz-like from the flat, red-hued Piedmont. Charlotte is a city with a diverse history of gold, agriculture, textiles and banking. It has an im- pressive tree canopy that belies the miles of concrete below. It is steeped in Southern traditions, yet embraces growth and an influx of people and businesses. It is a city with a developing plan for expansion and a com- mitment to beauty and function, as evidenced in the art which has been integrated into an expanding public transit system. Patrons utilize this transit system for commuting to work, attending a sporting or cultural event or taking their families to an uptown parade. As they speed along, journeying from their homes to their destinations, they may engage in a dynamic art experience by observing the intention- ally designed stations and art placed along the way.
