  31. Agenda Summary of Focus Group Findings Site Analysis Parking Resources / Traffic Analysis Existing On-campus Housing Resources Next Steps

  32. G F H O M I E Q T Parking Resources / Traffic Analysis • Existing Conditions • Traffic volumes similar to 2004 • Few points of access • Vehicle/Pedestrian conflicts

  33. Parking Resources / Traffic Analysis • Future Assumptions • Phase 1 of garage located north of Housing VII-C • Housing VII-C containing 600 beds • Roadway network changes per the NE Sector plan • Visitor / Welcome Center considerations for parking and pedestrians • Hotel and new connection to Route 123 • Relocate shuttle bus stop

  34. Parking Resources / Traffic Analysis • Future Conditions • Grid Network / Several points of access and turning opportunities • Reduce vehicle/pedestrian conflicts

  35. Parking Resources / Traffic Analysis • Concepts Moving Forward • Align crosswalks with building entrances / garage stairways and strategically plant shrubs to prevent jaywalking • Reduce pedestrian / vehicle conflicts • - Good: High Pedestrian Areas mixed with Low Vehicular Areas • Low Pedestrian Areas mixed with High Vehicular Areas • - Bad: Average Vehicular Areas mixed with Average • Pedestrian Areas • Traffic calming devices • - Add parking lanes and bulb-outs to provide an urban • atmosphere • - 10-11’ vehicular travel lanes • Relocate shuttle bus stop to better serve commuters • Consider parking for residents in Housing VII-C (surface near building, garage, or west campus) • Integrate a pick-up/drop-off area at the Visitor/Welcome Center
