<strong>Application</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>New</strong> <strong>Pedestrian</strong> <strong>Level</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Service</strong> <strong>Measures</strong><br />
SACOG<br />
8. Next Steps<br />
This research project provided a good start to several efforts at SACOG:<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
SACOG hopes to incorporate some <strong>of</strong> the major determinants <strong>of</strong> pedestrian LOS into<br />
its modeling s<strong>of</strong>tware.<br />
SACOG anticipates conducting an analysis <strong>of</strong> pedestrian LOS throughout the region.<br />
For this effort, staff may develop a targeted pedestrian LOS model that uses the key<br />
factors identified in this research.<br />
Based on the amount <strong>of</strong> staff effort involved in this analysis, staff will be able to<br />
estimate the resources needed to conduct a pedestrian LOS analysis at a regional<br />
scale. This information will be valuable in applying for grant funds, and when seeking<br />
local agency involvement.<br />
The SACOG Transportation Committee recently directed staff to develop a way to<br />
identify regional priority bicycle and pedestrian projects. Assessing pedestrian LOS is<br />
one potential method to identify areas with the greatest infrastructure needs,<br />
particularly in areas with high pedestrian activity.<br />
