Opportunities <strong>and</strong> constraints of each location—for example the existing structures <strong>and</strong> station<br />

operations, utilities, topography, l<strong>and</strong> ownership, <strong>com</strong>munity concerns, access facility design<br />

requirements, costs, <strong>and</strong> final station area site plan <strong>and</strong> implementation timeline for joint<br />

development, among others—should be considered during the site selection <strong>and</strong> design phase<br />

for temporary <strong>and</strong> permanent access facilities. Though this study does not re<strong>com</strong>mend specific<br />

facility locations, schematics, or designs, Table 31 highlights where <strong>Metro</strong> could potentially<br />

construct facilities as well as some general considerations for each site. The most <strong>com</strong>mon<br />

constraints for Locations 2, 3, <strong>and</strong> 4 include costs to purchase additional l<strong>and</strong>, impacts to existing<br />

businesses, <strong>and</strong> forcing customers to cross busy roadways. Location 1 is closer to the station<br />

entrance <strong>and</strong> <strong>Metro</strong> already owns much of this l<strong>and</strong>. However, Location 1 will be the focal<br />

point for joint development <strong>and</strong> the actual availability of l<strong>and</strong> may be constrained once a final<br />

site plan is defined. Note that each location is large <strong>and</strong> would allow for many different facility<br />

configurations. Narrowing down the specific facility setting within any of the four general<br />

locations is reserved for more detailed planning <strong>and</strong> design at a later date.<br />
