Transportation Trends and Data
One of the primary purposes of this study is to develop solutions to improve vehicular and
pedestrian traffic circulation and safety within the corridor. Therefore, data on traffic volumes,
accidents, pedestrian counts, turning movements and intersection levels of service were reviewed.
Another goal is to review and assess parking conditions in the corridor. A parking demand and
supply analysis was specifically performed for the Main Street section of the corridor.
Functional Classifications of Study Area Roadways
Roadways are classified by their function based on the service they provide within the road
network and their character. The hierarchy of classification ranges from Interstate highways to
principal arterial, minor arterial, collector and local roads. The hierarchy is based on mobility, access
and traffic volume. Interstate highways, for instance, provide great mobility but very limited access
to sites. On the other hand, local roads provide excellent access but vehicular mobility is limited.
