<br />ATTACHMENT A <br />2015-2018 STIP Enhance Project Funding Applications within the City of Eugene <br />November 5, 2012 <br />Projects submitted by City of Eugene <br /> <br />Amazon Active Transportation Corridor $1.5 million <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />This project will increase access across Amazon Creek for transit users and improve conditions <br />for running, walking, and bicycling in the East and West Amazon Drive area. Components <br />include extending the existing Amazon Path through Tugman Park, reconstructing the Rexius <br />Running Trail, adding two pedestrian crossings over Amazon Creek, and developing a separated <br />two-way bicycle facility along East or West Amazon Drive. <br /> <br /> <br />Jessen Shared Use Path $1.5 million <br /> <br /> <br />This new 5,900 foot long east-west shared use path will run along the north side of the Bethel <br />neighborhood and the south edge of Golden Gardens Park and will connect to the existing <br />north-south Beltline Path. The new path will give Bethel residents much improved connections <br />to the existing shared use path network and will enhance access to Golden Gardens Park, a <br />significant natural area for northwest Eugene. <br /> <br /> <br />Northeast Eugene Livable Streets $800k <br /> <br /> <br />This project will implement a portion of the Eugene Pedestrian and Bicycle Master Plan (PBMP). <br />This grant application would fund development of Livable Streets that are comfortable for all <br />users to walk or bike. The implementation of the project will complete the bicycle and <br />pedestrian network for a large geographic area in northeast Eugene covering 33,000 residents. <br />Projects include development of a bicycle boulevard network comprised of enhanced <br />wayfinding signs and shared lane markings, traffic calming, pedestrian islands, stutter flash <br />pedestrian signals (RRFBs), and widening of sidewalks at critical crossing locations. <br />Projects Submitted by ODOT <br /> <br />Beltline River Road to Coburg Road NEPA $3 - 5 million <br /> <br /> <br />This project will conduct required NEPA studies for the Beltline Highway River Road to Coburg <br />Road planning alternatives that have been developed out of the Beltline Facility Plan. The <br />current 2012-2015 STIP allocates $2.5 million for NEPA on the Beltline, however, it is anticipated <br />that further funding will be required to adequately fund NEPA analysis for the Beltline Highway. <br />These alternatives range from improving the existing alignment to adding a local arterial bridge <br />just north of Beltline Highway. While further work is still required as part of the Beltline Facility <br />Plan, the Plan is expected to be adopted in 2014 in conjunction with the Eugene TSP. This <br /> <br />
