Four different scenarios were run to better understand the impacts of the transit <br />investments alone, the zoning changes alone and the impact of both changes on total <br />transit trips, total person trips, mode share and percent change in mode share. The model <br />was also run to analyze the impact on transit ridership along the River Road corridor as a <br />whole (all TAZs that touch the corridor) as well as focused specifically in the 16 TAZs with <br />proposed housing unit changes only. As shown in Table 5, the increase in mode share <br />resulting from the Preferred Concept for the 16 development zones with EmX (14.4 <br />percent) is greater than the increase across the entire corridor (10.5 percent). <br />Table 5: Summary of Transit Trips and Transit <br />alongAll TAZs ...

Some of the <br />multimodal improvements suggested are relatively small capital investments that could <br />make an impact in the near term and may jumpstart other corridor level change. <br />RIVER ROAD CORRIDOR STUDY <br />Iwo <br />
