<DIV STYLE="text-align:Left;"><DIV><P><SPAN>The City of Fayetteville frequently experiences major incidents such as inclement weather, automobile crashes, and utility or railroad maintenance, where subdivisions with a single point of access can be cut off from the surrounding roadway network. As part of a Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP), Kittelson & Associates Inc. (Kittelson) developed a methodology to identify subdivisions with limited access and prioritize connectivity improvements to meet these public safety needs. Potential street connections were evaluated based on a series of five scores: Resiliency, Feasibility, Equity, Multimodal Access, and Community Access. After applying this methodology, Kittelson worked closely with Public Services, Police, and Fire to review and adjust the recommended connections. Kittelson developed planning-level concept designs and cost estimates for each connection. The second part of the CTP development included a comprehensive multimodal mobility and safety analysis on major travel corridors maintained by the City, resulting in a series of project recommendations intended to address multimodal safety and connectivity. Lastly, Kittelson reviewed the City’s development code and made recommendations to address street connectivity within new developments and infill.</SPAN></P></DIV></DIV> |
