3 • Project Summary shall pass through the park, providing a clear space for pedestrian/bicycle movement and a pleasant walking and biking environment. A bio-swale will be installed to collect drainage from the site, as well as provide a buffer between the Linear Park and the transit/mixed-use development. A service and fire department access will be located within the park. A minimum 80’ width is preferred from the top of the levee to the face of the building for implementation of the Linear Park. Appropriate amenities will be provided throughout the Linear Park for the comfort and convenience of the users. Safety design principles and security monitoring measures will be implemented at the park to ensure public safety/ security throughout the day. A conceptual section of the Linear Park is presented herein to illustrate the design intent only. 3.1.4 Phasing Phase 1 of the ARTIC Mixed-Use District is defined as the minimum Transit Center and transit-supporting facilities necessary to relocate the existing station to the project site and support the existing transit services (rail and non-rail), as well as accommodate future transit services such as the planned Metrolink Service Expansion Program, planned BRT and other fixed route services. Phase 1 will also include transit oriented retail, mixed-use commercial development and civic space. Phase 2 is defined as additional improvements that build on the facilities provided through Phase 1. This will include increased transportation services and infrastructure improvements. Specifically, Phase 2 may include an 3-8 • ARTIC Mixed-Use District Conceptual Development Guidelines expansion of the ARTIC Transit Center, transit oriented retail, mixed-use commercial development, civic space and transit supporting facilities. Additional parking may be required to support possible additional transit services such as additional BRT, the Anaheim Fixed Guideway and expanded intercity bus connections. Phase 3 is defined as the ultimate build out of the project. Phase 3 will build on the improvements provided through the first two phases, including additional expansion of the transit center, commercial development, civic space and parking. Phase 3 expansions will be consistent with the implementation of the California High Speed Rail Authority’s Los Angeles to Orange County segment, the California Nevada Super Speed Train, expanded rail service by Amtrak, and associated track, platform and access improvements necessary for these services. Additional environmental clearance for these services will be the responsibility of the service implementers. Seamless integration of subsequent development with earlier phases must be considered for functional, aesthetic and safety reasons. Temporary uses, such as open-air festivals and special events, may occur on the portions of the ARTIC Mixed-Use District site designated for later phases of development. To provide visual interest and generate excitement for the upcoming development, the use of a branded construction fence around the areas under construction as a communication device is encouraged.

3.2 Circulation, Access and Parking This section describes the vehicular, pedestrian and bicycle circulation concepts and parking facilities for the ARTIC Mixed-Use District. 3.2.1 Vehicular Circulation Vehicular access to the ARTIC Mixed-Use District will be via Douglass Road and Katella Avenue. Douglass Road will be lowered at SR-57 to accommodate bridge widening for expanded rail service and extended platform lengths. Access drives along Douglass Road into the parking structure on-site will be separate from the dedicated access leading to the ARTIC Bus Transfer/Curbside area. 3.2.2 Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation Pedestrians will primarily traverse within the ARTIC Mixed- Use District via the Pedestrian Promenade, which offers direct access between The Platinum Triangle, the Honda Center, Angel Stadium of Anaheim and ARTIC. In addition, a network of broad walkways will also link the Transit Center, Santa Ana River trail and various on-site uses. To the east of ARTIC, a regional bicycle trail runs along each side of the Santa Ana River. To facilitate convenient access, a direct bicycle connection from the ARTIC Transit Center to the Santa Ana River trail will be provided at ARTIC’s bicycle station plaza. Tree-lined sidewalks will be provided along Douglass Road and Katella Avenue. The sidewalk along Douglass Road will continue southerly past the ARTIC Transit Center and pass under SR-57 to provide pedestrian connections to Angel Stadium and other mixed-use development located on the periphery of the Stadium property. Bicyclists traveling along March 4, 2009 3 • Project Summary Douglass Road from the south will arrive via entrances to the Pedestrian Promenade. 3.2.3 Parking Development of parking facilities at the ARTIC Mixed- Use District will focus on Phase 1 needs, with provisions for potential parking expansion as future transportation services are introduced. For the mixed-use component on-site, shared parking and other potential solutions shall be explored and analyzed in a project-specific parking study within the existing physical constraints. As the site progresses through its phases of development, changes in specific parking requirements must be assessed. Site design should allow for a certain amount of parking flexibility as future service and development plans are refined. Refer to the Parking Management Study for Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center, prepared by Richard Willson, Ph.D. FAICP (dated December 19, 2008), for further details.
