AIRPORT DEVELOPMENT ALTERNATIVES 4.5.3.4 Landside Alternatives Evaluation All of the landside alternatives have been developed with the intention of meeting all of the evaluation criteria. Performance scores for each landside alternatives in relation to how they meet the evaluation criteria are shown in Figure 4-18. Each concept achieves goals set forth in Section 4.5.3.1 Key Issues and Items for Consideration, by reducing opportunities for unnecessary bypass traffic along the terminal curb-front, addressing the airport loop road intersection entrance, accommodating commercial vehicle staging, allotting space to meet projected PAL 3 parking demand, and correcting roadway dimensional issues. All landside concepts reduce curb road bypass traffic through alternative access roads which eliminate the need for rental cars and airport parkers to drive past the terminal curb-front. The addition of a cell phone lot helps curb operations by reducing curb dwell times and by giving traffic that would otherwise recirculate across the curbs the chance to wait for free. Each concept addresses the airport loop road entrance by implementing a new road design that eliminates the need for anyone driving to terminal facilities to make a left turn. A variety of locations are demonstrated for staging commercial vehicles e program areas within the airport loop road. FIGURE 4-18 LANDSIDE ALTERNATIVES EVALUATION MATRIX Source: RS&H Analysis, 2017 . Some benefits of this concept are the retention/expansion of parking program areas as they exist at the time of this study. Douglas Drive (terminal loop road) is expanded using portions of Lockheed Drive to allow growth of parking areas adjacent to their existing footprints and within the loop road. The gated tenant parking area is preserved until such a time that terminal development requires the land but employee parking as a EUGENE AIRPORT MASTER PLAN 4-46
