PARK-AND-RIDE LOTS INTRODUCTION a Means of Managing Congestion on the Highway System Is to Increase Occupancy Levels in Vehicles
CENTRAL MINNESOTA AREA COMMUTER STUDY | FINAL REPORT Minnesota Department of Transportation 10 PARK-AND-RIDE LOTS INTRODUCTION A means of managing congestion on the highway system is to increase occupancy levels in vehicles. An objective of MnDOT, and specifically District 3, is to promote park-and-ride facilities as one means of accomplishing this goal. This chapter reviews existing and potential park-and-ride facilities, and summarizes recommended improvements. For clarity purposes, "park-and-ride facility" is defined as a location where it is possible to park cars for long periods of time, and where transit service is available and/or where carpools/vanpools form. The term park-and-pool, which was used in Chapters 4 and 5 to distinguish those lots without transit from those with transit, is not used here to allow for a consistent approach in addressing commuter needs. DEFINING PARK-AND-RIDE PROTOTYPES FOR DISTRICT 3 The review of and recommended alternatives for park-and-ride facilities is based on potential ridership demand, discussed in Chapter 9, along with general practices for location and design of park-and-ride facilities. For the purpose of defining park-and-ride improvements and development needs, a hierarchy for facilities was developed, along with prototype design with proposed amenities. Figure 10-1 provides the proposed park-and-ride hierarchy for District 3.

Guidelines for the Safe Siting of School Bus Stops
Guidelines for the safe location of school bus stops 1. How are bus stops determined? Bus stops will be placed on public roadways and will avoid travel on private roads and/or driveways Bus routes are designed with buses traveling on main arterials with students picked up and dropped off at central locations. Visibility – Bus drivers need to have at least 500 feet of visible roadway to the bus stop. If there is not ample visibility (e.g. curve or hill) a “school bus stop ahead sign” is put in place before the stop in accordance with WAC 392-145-030 Bus drivers activate their school bus warning lights 300-100 feet before arriving at the bus stop, where the posted speed limit is 35 mph and under, and 500-300 feet before arriving at the bus stop where the posted speed limit is 35 mph and over. 2. Why are bus stops located at corners? Bus stops may be located at corners or intersections whenever possible. Corner stops are much more visible to drivers than house numbers. Students are generally taught to cross at corners rather than in the middle of the street. Traffic controls, such as stoplights or signs, are located at corners. These tend to slow down motorists at corners, making them more cautious as they approach intersections. The motoring public generally expects school buses to stop at corners rather than individual houses. Impatient motorists are also less likely to pass buses at corners than along a street. Cars passing school buses create the greatest risk to students who are getting on or off the bus. -
