June 2019 FAQ <br />found in LTD’s Long Range Transit Plan, the land use policies found in Envision Eugene, the safety goals <br />in the City’s Vision Zero Action Plan, the greenhouse gas reductions of the City’s Climate Action Plan, <br />among many other plans and policies. <br /> <br />How do decisions made about Transit Tomorrow influence MovingAhead? <br />Transit Tomorrow has engaged the community in a conversation about how to deploy LTD’s current <br />resources in the most effective manner: should LTD concentrate on frequency-oriented service in fewer <br />places or should LTD try to reach as many places as possible with less frequent service. This may result in <br />changes to LTD’s fixed route-bus network. In recent decisions, LTD staff have been directed to draft a <br />sample network that makes service more frequency-oriented. All of the MovingAhead corridors are <br />places where frequency-oriented service would be concentrated. <br />MovingAhead began studying the transit system in 2015. Much of the analysis comparing MovingAhead <br />alternatives to the existing network was completed in 2016-2017, so the analysis completed for <br />MovingAhead reflects changes compared to the network at that time. Because no decisions have been <br />made about service and network changes from Transit Tomorrow, precise modeling of how <br />MovingAhead will change in response to Transit Tomorrow would be speculative at best. While LTD’s <br />Board has provided direction on a draft network to explore, no specific changes have been approved <br />yet. But that doesn’t mean that the two projects won’t align. <br />Federal environmental regulations require all work to be updated to current conditions as individual <br />corridors in MovingAhead prepare for implementation. What this means is that when MovingAhead <br />corridors are being designed and permitted, staff will update ridership numbers, costs, and other topics <br />of interest to reflect current conditions including any changes made to the network. Over the 10-year <br />period of implementing MovingAhead, there will likely be many updates to LTD’s fixed-route network. <br />The project implementation process allows the community and decision makers to update our <br />MovingAhead designs to respond to changes as we work towards our overall vision. <br /> WHAT WHERE WHEN <br /> <br />B <br />U <br />S <br /> <br />S <br />E <br />R <br />V <br />I <br />C <br />E <br /> <br />I <br />N <br />F <br />R <br />A <br />S <br />T <br />R <br />U <br />C <br />T <br />U <br />R <br />E <br /> <br />M <br />E <br />T <br />R <br />O <br /> <br />A <br />R <br />E <br />A <br /> <br />E <br />U <br />G <br />E <br />N <br />E <br /> <br />N <br />E <br />A <br />R <br /> <br />T <br />E <br />R <br />M <br /> <br />L <br />O <br />N <br />G <br />E <br />R <br /> <br />T <br />E <br />R <br />M <br /> <br /> • • • <br /> <br />• • • • <br />July 15, 2019, Joint Work Session – Item1
