F.19 Establish a BRT system composed of frequent, fast transit service along major corridors <br />and neighborhood feeder service that connects with the corridor, service and with activity <br />centers, if the system is shown to increase transit mode split along BRT corridors, if local <br />governments demonstrate support, and if financing for the system is feasible.. <br />F.20 Implement traffic management strategies and other actions, where appropriate and <br />practical, that give priority to transit and other high occupancy vehicles. <br />F.21 Expand the Park-and-Ride system within the metropolitan area and nearby communities. <br />Transportation System Improvements: Bic cle <br />Findings <br />32. In 1995, there were 126 miles of bikeways in the metropolitan area. Implementation of <br />proposed TranSPlan projects would approximately double the lane miles for bicycles. <br />33. Over the past 20 years, Eugene and Springfield have built an extensive bikeway system. <br />The focus over the next 20 years is on the construction of "Priority Bikeway Projects" <br />which consist of those projects that are along an essential core route on which the overall <br />system depends, fill in a critical gap in the existing bicycle system, or overcome a barrier <br />where no other nearby existing or programmed bikeway alternatives exist, or <br />significantly improve bicycle users safety in a given corridor. <br />34. OAR 660-012-0045(3) requires local governments to adopt land use regulations to <br />require bikeways along new and reconstructed arterial and major collector streets and to <br />connect new development with nearby neighborhood activity centers and major <br />destinations. <br />Policies <br />F.22 Construct and improve the region's bikeway system and provide bicycle system support <br />facilities for both new development and redevelopment/expansion, <br />F.23 Require bikeways along new and reconstructed arterial and major collector streets. <br />F.24 Require bikeways to connect new development with nearby neighborhood activity <br />centers and major destinations. <br />F.25 Give funding priority (ideally within the first 3 to 5 years after adoption of TransPlan, <br />subject to available funding) to stand-alone bikeway projects that are included in the <br />definition of "Priority Bikeway Miles" and that increase the use of alternative modes. <br />Transportation System Improvements: Pedestrian <br />Findings <br />Laurel Ridge Record (Z 15-5) III-F-10 Page 222 <br />
