(Blue Diamond Road) Corridor Study - Regional Transportation ...

7. Proposed Park and Ride Facilities RTC SR-160 Corridor Study
Eastbound buses would enter the south-side facility via a dedicated driveway from SR-160,
service the facility, and re-enter eastbound SR-160 in a queue-jumping lane at the Durango
Drive intersection. Westbound buses would use a queue-jumping lane to cross Durango and
enter the north-side facility via a dedicated driveway, after which they would re-enter the
westbound traffic lanes of SR-160.
Automobiles would access the south-side facility via driveways on either Arlington Ranch
Road or SR-160. Durango Drive could also be directly accessed if a mutual access
easement is obtained from the owner of the undeveloped property immediately to the east,
which is currently Diamond PHD LLC. The north-side facility would be accessed via
Durango.
The pedestrian bridge would be equipped with stairs and either ramps (preferred) or
elevators for ADA compliance. Transit riders who park at the facility would generally have
to cross SR-160 either via the bridge or at the signaled Durango intersection once per round
trip.
The facility north of SR-160 would have 713 parking spaces (including 20 handicapped),
while there would be 648 spaces south of SR-160 (30 handicapped). There is no room for
further expansion of either segment of the facility without the acquisition of privately-owned
land.
