GoalMetricQualitative Evaluation Method (High, Medium, Low)
Improve Safety for All Users1,2• Reduce severe and fatal injury collisionsH = Includes substantial active transportation improvements (e.g. crossing visibility, sidewalk bulb-outs, protected bikeway, etc.) OR strategy that slows down speeding vehicles M = All other road safety improvement strategies L = All other strategies
Increase Access to Key Destinations1• Increase quality of connections • Expand connectivity to key destinationsH = Close an active transportation gap between existing facilities with Class I or Class IV bikeway OR increase access through transit frequency/reliability M = Improve quality of sidewalks, crossings, bus stops, or Bay Trail OR provide access through/over a barrier L = All other strategies
Improve Health1• Decrease in GHG emissions and other pollutants • Reduce cut- through trafficH = Strategies that reduce neighborhood cut-through traffic OR that promote ZE technology or GHG reduction OR support active travel M = Multimodal and transit strategies L = All other strategies
Advance Placemaking1• Maintenance and street beautification • Community supportH = Strategy with placemaking elements (e.g. public art, beautification, greening, lighting, traffic calming, etc) and maintenance (e.g. removing litter, improving pavement/markings, reducing illegal dumping) OR reduce truck throughput and parking in residential areas M = Addresses other key concern raised during Phase 1 community engagement process (i.e. safety, biking and walking, and congestion) L = All other strategies
Enhance Travel Time Reliability and Efficiency• Reduce vehicle delay • Increase vehicle occupancyH = HOV/Express lane strategies OR Transit-priority strategies (e.g. bus lane, signal priority) M = Signal or capacity efficiency improvements OR all other transit service strategies L = All other strategies
Support Feasible Strategies• Advance feasible strategies • Develop cost- efefctive transportation solutionsH = Strategy can be delivered in the the next 5 years depending on staffing and priority levels (includes first phase of capital projects or quick-build version of strategies where applicable) OR recommended in an adopted plan M = Strategy can be delivered in the next 6-10 years L = All other strategies

Table C-1: Strategies Evaluation Framework Each strategy was qualitatively assessed against metrics associated with each goal as described in Table C-1. Each strategy was assigned a High, Medium, or Low goal alignment assessment.

  1. Goal identified as one that would disproportionately benefit Equity Priority Communities along the corridor. These goals are given greater weight in total goal alignment assessment.
  2. Note that the entire corridor is on the CCTA High Injury Network. Typically safety projects located on the HIN may score higher, but in this case, that would be the entire corridor.
