Initial Findings • Central area land supply is declining while demand is increasing • 41 percent of existing industrial land along the central corridors is already planned for new uses • Shortages in industrial land result in outward dispersion of industrial activity • Compared two alternatives: • Existing industrial land remains • Current land use trends continue
Impacts • Trends scenario, compared to current land uses, results in: • Over 300,000 more truck miles traveled • 8,400 truck trips per day shifted, often to longer routes; 6,100 additional trucks on I-580 • Increased emissions • Displacement of 87,000 jobs • Higher transportation costs
Next Steps • Complete the study, including a high-level analysis of the South Bay • Continue working with FOCUS to ensure goods movement issues are considered • Share information with CMAs and local jurisdictions • Explore best practices in industrial planning
