Goal 5: By the year 203 5 triple the percentage of trips made on foot, by bicycle, <br />and by transit from 2014 levels. <br />System-Wide Policies <br />1. Foster neighborhoods where Eugene residents could meet most of their basic <br />daily needs without an automobile by providing streets, sidewalks, bikeways, and <br />access to transit in an inviting environment where all travelers feel safe and secure. <br />2. Consider safety first when making transp01iation decisions. Strive for zero <br />transp01iation-related fatalities and severe injuries by reducing the number and <br />severity of crashes through design, operations, maintenance , education, and <br />enforcement. In fmiherance of the City Council's adopted Vision Zero Action Plan <br />(Administrative Order 58-19-04), prioritize safety improvements for people who <br />walk, bike and use mobility devices because no loss of life or serious injury on our <br />streets is acceptable. <br />3. Improve community health by designing streets and paths to encourage increased <br />physical activity by the public. <br />4. Promote connections between modes oftranspo1iation to make each mode more <br />efficient, such as by connecting bicycle routes and bus, train, and airpo1i services <br />to each other; and connections to transp01iation facilities extending outside the <br />City's planning area. <br />Roadway and Parking Policies <br />1. ["Complete Streets Policy"] Design, construct, maintain, and operate all streets <br />to provide comprehensive and integrated transportation networks that serve people <br />of all ages and abilities, promote commerce, and supp01i the comprehensive land <br />use plan's vision for growth and development in a responsible and efficient manner. <br />A "complete street" allows safe travel for automobiles and emergency responders , <br />bicycles, walking , transit, and freight. In addition to fulfilling a street's basic <br />transportation functions and providing access to properties, streets and sidewalks <br />should be designed to be attractive, safe, accessible , sustainable, and healthy <br />components of the City's environment. <br />6. Continually optimize the efficiency of the transp01iation system through <br />transp01iation system management (TSM) improvements, connectivity <br />improvements, multimodal improvements, parking management and supply, and <br />Administrative Order --Page 4 of 6
