<br />May 2019 Investment Package Alternatives MovingAhead <br />48 Supplemental Refinement Report <br />evaluation of the proposed investment packages is documented in the Proposed Investment Packages <br />Technical Memo (December 2018). <br />Criteria <br />When considering investment packages that involve improvements to multiple corridors, the evaluation <br />criteria needed to be tailored to those that help assess the systemwide benefits of the packages. The <br />criteria for the investment packages are listed below. Many of these were used for the corridor-level <br />evaluation, and some are new criteria. <br />• Acquisitions: The number of properties potentially displaced as a result of the project. <br />• Bicycle/Pedestrian Improvements: The proposed investment in bicycle and pedestrian access <br />and safety improvements in each corridor. <br />• Capital Cost: Capital cost includes estimated costs for vehicles, design, construction, right-of- <br />way, and project management. Cost includes $2.5 million for expansion of the LTD maintenance <br />facility. <br />• Consistency with Local Plans and Policies: An assessment of the consistency of the investment <br />package with comprehensive land use and transportation plans and policies and its support for <br />local energy, sustainability and greenhouse gas policies and community safety programs, <br />including Vision Zero. <br />• Investment in Corridors with Disadvantaged Populations: The percentage of the total <br />investment in corridors with greater numbers of low-income and minority people. This is a new <br />measure that only applies to the packages (not individual corridors), since it documents the <br />percentage on the investment for a combination of corridors. <br />• Number/Acreage of Acquisitions: The number and total acreage of properties that would <br />potentially need to be purchased. <br />• Operating Cost: Operating cost is the estimated annual cost to operate and maintain the service. <br />This includes paying operators, vehicle maintenance and fuel, as well as administrative and <br />overhead costs. <br />• Parking Impacts: The number of on-street and off-street parking spaces that may need to be <br />removed. <br />• Potential Property Displacements: The number of properties potentially displaced as a result of <br />the project. <br />• Ridership: Annual transit ridership as projected for the year 2040 using the regional <br />transportation model. <br />• Support for Corridor Development: An assessment of how well the alternative supports <br />corridor development and redevelopment and encourages transit-oriented development. <br />• Support from the Public: The level of public support for the package as determined through <br />community feedback on the Alternatives Analysis. <br />• Transit Travel Time: Estimate of how long it would take for someone to travel from the end of <br />the line to Eugene Station during the afternoon peak hour (in-vehicle time). <br />• Tree Impacts: The number of medium and large trees which may need to be removed. <br />July 15, 2019, Joint Work Session – Item1
