2040 CRP Summary / Transportation TRANSPORTATION STRATEGIES 46
CAPACITY EXPANSION TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS In accordance with federal requirements, the CRP includes a fiscally-constrained list of all capacity expansion transportation projects planned for Northwest Indiana. New roads and highway interchanges, added travel lanes, new transit lines and new transit routes are categorized as capacity expansion. To ensure it is fiscally-constrained, the CRP contains estimates of future funding levels and includes only those projects for which sufficient funding has been identified. The selection of these projects was accomplished in consultation and cooperation with local and regional stakeholders using criteria based on the CRP vision, goals and objectives. Eligible projects also had to meet two prerequisites: the project must be compatible with the adopted Complete Streets Policy, and it must be recommended by the Congestion Management Process. The full project selection criteria are listed in the full CRP. The projects were segmented by completion date in order to test their air quality impacts and ensure compliance with National Ambient Air Quality Standards. In addition to funded projects, the CRP includes an illustrative list of projects. This list contains major projects that have been proposed for Northwest Indiana, but do not have a committed funding source.
