<br />. Existing buildings and neighborhoods <br />. Willamette River and associated natural resources <br />. Complex intersection with multiple bridges <br /> <br />Identified policy issues. <br />. FHW A (Federal Highway Administration) "8 Point Guidelines" for additional access to the <br />interstate system <br />. OHP (Oregon Highway Plan) Policy 1G Major Improvements <br />. Interchange concepts do not appear to identify or solve a transportation problem (purpose <br />and need) <br />. Opportunity costs to existing transportation problems in the metro area and Lane County <br /> <br />Identified stakeholder issues. <br />. Increased congestion on Franklin Boulevard, Ferry Street <br />. Neighborhood traffic and access <br />. Land use and property value impacts <br />. Park and river impacts <br />. Access for new development <br />. Aesthetics <br />. Bicycle and pedestrian facilities <br />. Development of Glenwood <br />. University of Oregon arena events traffic <br />. Be clear about project objective (purpose and need) <br />. Would this project divert funds from other projects <br />. Compliance with federal and state policies (e.g., interchange spacing, consistency of land <br />uses with interchange capacity preservation, maximizing use of existing facilities) <br /> <br />Summary of Estimated Costs <br /> <br />Cost ranges were developed using concept sketches without any detailed engineering work. Cost <br />data is preliminary and is intended to show the relative differences in cost between the categories <br />rather than convey definitive value. <br />. Full Interchange at Franklin: <br />. Partial Interchange at Franklin: <br />. Split Interchange at Franklin and Glenwood: <br />. Reconstructed Glenwood Interchange: <br /> <br />$80m - $120m <br />$75m - $110m <br />$75m - $110m <br />$35m - $50m <br /> <br />Data Gaps <br /> <br />Limitations of this preliminary concept-level exercise are significant. Detailed survey mapping <br />of the built and natural environment, operational traffic analysis at effected intersections, impacts <br />of future widening of 1-5, and preliminary engineering design are all needed to better understand <br />potential constraints, impacts and costs of a potential interchange project. The facility <br />refinement planning process would be the next step to develop this information to a level <br />sufficient to include a project in local and regional transportation system plans. <br /> <br />3 <br />
