Chapter 8 TRANSPORTATION
Chapter 8 TRANSPORTATION 8.1 Existing Traffic Conditions and Trends Bedford’s transportation system is comprised of highways and streets, a commuter rail line, bus routes, and sidewalks. The town’s rural, low-density and tri-center pattern favored the growth of auto-related transportation. Most of Bedford’s residents drive – to shop, to commute, for recre- ation. The MetroNorth Harlem line represents the only alternative transportation mode being used to a significant degree primarily by residents commuting to New York City, and the majority of these commuters drive to the train stations. The town is served by interstate and state highways and has a well-developed network of local roads. Interstate 684, the Saw Mill River Parkway, and State Highways 22, 35, 117, 121, and 172 traverse the town. Interstate 684 and the Saw Mill River Parkway both cross through the town in a north-south direction. These highways, together with the Metro-North Railroad (Harlem Line), form the backbone of Bedford’s transportation system. The circulation pattern in the town generally flows according to the functional classification sys- tem established by the 1972 Town Plan and updated for the 1988 Town Development Plan. Some of the state highways and local roads have become adversely impacted by high traffic vol- umes and speeds. Traffic circulating between Pound Ridge, New Canaan, Stamford, Greenwich and Somers, and the local railroad stations, I-684 and the Saw Mill River Parkway use a variety of local roadways. Route 172, Route 22, Harris Road, and Cherry Street are examples of roads and highways that have seen increasing volumes of through traffic. -

Developer's Package
FAIRFIELD HILLS AUTHORITY Newtown, Connecticut A Commercial Development Opportunity September 2013 Introduction The Town of Newtown, Fairfield County, Connecticut acquired the former Fairfield Hills Hospital property from the State of Connecticut in 2004. A comprehensive reuse vision for the property is presented in the Fairfield Hills Master Plan. The Town of Newtown established the Fairfield Hills Authority, a municipal development agency, to implement the Master Plan. The Fairfield Hills Master Plan calls for reserving a major portion of the 185-acre property for municipal and cultural use, as well as passive and active recreational use. A select number of existing buildings and land parcels have been designated for commercial purposes. The Town of Newtown renovated Bridgeport Hall, a former hospital building located at the center of the Fairfield Hills campus, for its municipal offices. The newly renovated building is prominent and highly visible at the center of the campus. The building was occupied in the fall of 2009. Newtown Municipal Center 2 Redevelopment Status The Fairfield Hills Authority (FHA) is charged with spearheading responses by developers for the commercial development opportunities at Fairfield Hills. Much progress has been made to date with campus improvements. Five buildings have been removed to date and bond funds have been requested for the Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) for the removal of others. Two buildings have been renovated and occupied for office use. A new baseball field has been constructed and is in use, the Newtown Youth Academy, a private sports and fitness facility was constructed and is open for business, permanent parking facilities for the Newtown Youth Academy and the Newtown Municipal Center have been installed. -
Transportation Draft Report 4.26.21
Town Comprehensive Plan Draft Chapter 8 Transportation CHAPTER 8 - TRANSPORTATION 8.1 Existing Traffic Conditions and Trends Bedford's transportation system is comprised of highways and streets, a commuter rail line, bus routes, and sidewalks. The town's rural, low-density and tri hamlet pattern favored the growth of auto-related transportation. Most of Bedford's residents drive to shop, to commute, for recreation. The Metro-North Harlem line represents the only alternative transportation mode being used to a significant degree primarily by residents commuting to New York City, and the majority of these commuters drive to the train stations. Limited bus east/west bus service is also available. The town is served by interstate and state highway supplemented by a well-developed network of local roads. Interstate 684, the Saw Mill River Parkway, and State Highways 22, 35, 117, 121, and 172 traverse the town. Interstate 684 and the Saw Mill River Parkway both cross through the town in a north-south direction. These highways, together with the Metro-North Railroad (Harlem Line), form the backbone of Bedford's transportation system. Existing Functional Classification The 1988 Bedford Master Plan organized the roadways into the following categories: Limited access highways, through roads, collector roads, and local roads. The purpose of organizing the roadway system according to these categories is to recognize that some roads have to carry higher volumes, more through traffic at higher speeds and other roads serve mainly to provide access to adjacent properties. Roads in Bedford cannot serve both purposes in a safe and efficient manner. Many of the traffic problems in Bedford can be related to conflicts in the functional role that each roadway has to fulfill: Through traffic using local or collector roads as a short cut represents such a conflict; similarly, traffic turning in and out of commercial driveways along a through road (such as Route 117) is in conflict with the arterial function of that road. -

Infrastructure and Tectonics of the Hudson Highlands, New York Nicholas M
NYSGA 2009 Trip 9 - Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff Trip 9 - Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff Pre-Ottawan (1.09 Ga) Infrastructure and Tectonics of the Hudson Highlands, New York Nicholas M. Ratcliffe1 and John N. Aleinikoff2 1U.S. Geological Survey, Reston VA 20192, [email protected] 2U.S. Geological Survey, Denver, CO 80225, [email protected] INTRODUCTION This trip focuses on some of the oldest Mesoproterozic rocks in the Appalachians and the nature of the pre-Ottawan (pre-1.09 Ga) infrastructure of the Hudson Highlands and Manhattan Prong. Zircon geochronology by Aleinikoff (Table 1) is revised from that given in Table 1 of Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff (2008) and is still preliminary. Ongoing geologic mapping east of the Hudson River in the Peekskill, West Point, Lake Carmel, Mohegan Lake, Brewster and Peach Lake quadrangles continues to lead to a reinterpretation and clarification of our former views (Ratcliffe and Aleinikoff, 2001, 2008) as well a new synthesis for the Hudson Highlands east of the Hudson River. After publish- ing the detailed geology of the Poughquag quadrangle (Ratcliffe and Burton, 1990) and the Oscawana Lake quad- rangle (Ratcliffe, 1992), investigations were resumed in 2000 to prepare the previously mapped but unpublished quadrangles for publication. This trip presents, in preliminary form, much of the recent, (post-2000) information, which helps clarify the age and distribution of Mesoproterozoic basement rocks of the Hudson Highlands and Manhattan Prong and is an abbrevi- ated version of our 2008 NEIGC trip. Please note that stops have been changed and that the route is different. A remarkable newly recognized aspect of Hudson Highlands geology covered in this trip is the widespread presence of orthogneisses and metavolcanic rocks belonging to the time period between 1400 Ma and 1200 Ma, or during Geochrons 14 and 13 of Rivers (1997). -
