UNIVERSITY OF OREGON NORTH CAMPUS CONDITIONAL USE & WILLAMETTE GREENWAY PERMIT APPLICATION layback and riparian restoration, but not to the extent proposed in the southern alignment. The alignment responds to desires for public access along the river, enhanced safety by activating the riverÈs edge and improving sightlines, and improved ecological function. The southern alignment utilizes the existing culvert crossing within the Millrace Slough to transverse this feature. The alignment does not extend east, and connects to Riverfront Parkway and Millrace Drive, which is the current eastward travel pattern for pedestrians and bicyclists. Shifting the bike path further from the river allows for more area devoted to bank layback and riparian restoration, and lessens the steepness of the proposed transition from the ordinary high water line to top of bank line. The alignment responds to desires to expand the riparian area, improve ecological function, and minimize conflicts between recreation and habitat uses. Primary circulation routes extend east-west through the area between the railroad tracks and Franklin Boulevard and along Millrace Drive; east-west along the Millrace; north-south from Onyx Street; north-south along the gallery walk connection to the Frohnmayer Bridge; north-south along Riverfront Parkway; and, east-west along the river via the aforementioned bike path alignment options. Two railroad crossings exist, one at Riverfront Parkway and one at Gallery Walk. The university proposes potential new railroad crossings at Alder Street and west of Gallery Walk. These crossings are intended to be underpasses. Two bridge crossings currently exist over the Millrace, at Onyx Street and at Gallery Walk. The university proposes two additional bridge crossings over the Millrace, one west of Onyx Street and one east of Riverfront Drive. Lastly, the university proposes an overpass crossing over Franklin Boulevard west of Onyx Street to better connect the historic campus core to the North Campus area. Private Vehicle Primary Circulation Plan (Sheet L04) The Private Vehicle Primary Circulation Plan illustrates primary circulation for private vehicles, managed access, and primary access points that the university proposes to maintain or provide. Private vehicle circulation is synonymous with unrestricted access. Managed access is synonymous with access for loading/unloading and ADA needs associated with buildings and uses in those areas. It does not depict all routes that would be part of the circulation system, as those would be determined during the design process of a development project. Private vehicle primary circulation is limited to Riverfront Parkway, Millrace Drive, and a proposed access drive serving Area 4 extending from City-owned property to the west. Managed access would be allowed north of Riverfront Parkway, north of the Onyx intersection, and west of Riverfront Parkway on Millrace Drive. Service Vehicle Primary Circulation Plan (Sheet L05) The Service Vehicle Primary Circulation Plan illustrates primary routes, access points, and crossings for service and delivery vehicles, police vehicles, and emergency vehicles that the university proposes to maintain or provide. It depicts the general location of these elements and the direction of travel for the primary routes. It does not depict all routes that would be part of the circulation system, as those would be determined during the design process of a development project. Primary service circulation routes extend east-west along Millrace Drive and through Area 1; east-west through Area 5 and 6 along the northern edge of the railroad right-of-way; north-south along Onyx Street; and north-south along Riverfront Parkway. A proposed new crossing occurs at the west extent of Area 1, connecting that area across the Millrace to property to the west that Cameron McCarthy FINAL SUBMITTAL | June 22, 2018 30
