Approval of Meeting Summary
The summary for the August 25, 2021, meeting was approved.
Discussion: Regional Transportation Plan Preliminary Analysis Results
Craig Helmann, PSRC, reviewed preliminary analysis results of the draft RTP, highlighting transit-related results, which included analysis of equity geographies, transit boardings and access, mode of transportation and miles driven per household. He noted some of the next steps would be to continue mining of modeled outputs and analysis, building a future conditions visualization tool and further detail on climate analysis.
The presentation can be viewed on the PSRC website here
For more information, contact Craig Helmann at [email protected].
Discussion: Regional Transportation Plan Assessment of Potential Transit Needs and Opportunities
Craig shared a draft visualization of planned transit service for the 2022-2050 timeframe with an overlay of 2050 population and employment. He said the visualization is intended to help local jurisdictions and transit agencies to plan collaboratively for areas that may achieve densities that warrant fixed-route transit service and areas that may warrant high-capacity transit service. The committee discussed the tool and provided feedback and suggestions.
For more information, contact Craig Helmann at [email protected] or Gil Cerise at [email protected] .
Discussion: Regional Transportation Plan Transit-Related Key Messages
Gil Cerise, PSRC, provided an overview of work completed to date and reviewed key messages for inclusion in the draft RTP that incorporated information, trends, and descriptions of various aspects of public transit such as rail and bus, specialized transportation, ferries, intercity transit and mobility on demand. The committee provided comments and Gil said he would send out an email to the committee for any additional feedback.
