Support redevelopment priorities by <br /> <br />promoting compatible transportation <br />investments along key corridors and in core <br />commercial areas, including downtown. <br />Foster neighborhoods where 90 percent of <br /> <br />Eugene residents can meet most daily needs <br />without relying heavily on an automobile. <br />Improve the comfort and convenience of <br /> <br />travel, especially for walking, bicycling, <br />carpooling, and riding transit. <br />Maintain a network of Emergency Response <br /> <br />Streets to facilitate prompt emergency <br />response. <br /> <br />(e) The transportation system shall avoid The alternatives analysis summarized in Chapter 3 and <br />principal reliance on any one mode of Appendix D (Alternatives Evaluation Process) is <br />transportation by increasing transportation fundamentally based on the need to decrease reliance <br />choices to reduce principal reliance on the on the automobile (see sample criteria, above).

Chapter 2 highlight the importance of tripling the <br />percentage of trips made by transit, cycling and <br />walking by 2035 and increasing transportation choices <br />for all users. <br /> <br />The 2035 TSP plans for significant investment in active <br />transportation over the next 20 years. Of the 276 <br />projects planned in the 2035 TSP to be built over the <br />next 20 years, 253 of the projects are entirely <br />pedestrian and bicycle projects; those projects include <br />89 neighborhood greenway projects, 17 shared use <br />paths, 10 protected bike lane projects, and 89 <br />separated path/sidewalk projects. Six of the 276 <br />projects are transit projects, which include improving <br />frequent transit service and multimodal travel along <br />numerous transit corridors. <br /> <br />The 2035 TSP <br />will affect how all streets will be planned and <br />maintained in the future. By making streets more <br />inviting to pedestrians and bicyclists, especially for <br />short trips, the City will gain more efficient use of <br />limited available space within the street rights-of-way, <br />provide a healthier environment in neighborhoods, <br />and support the higher density, mixed use Key <br />Corridors championed by the Envision Eugene, A <br />Exhibit A to an Ordinance Concerning Long Range Transportation Planning <br />Page 30 of 63 <br /> <br />
