General Plan - Moreno Valley

CHAPTER 9 – GOALS AND OBJECTIVESsegments of the General Plan CirculationElement Map.Policies:5.3.1 Obtain right-of-way and constructroadways in accordance with thedesignations shown on the GeneralPlan Circulation Element Map and theCity street improvement standards.5.3.2 Wherever feasible, promote thedevelopment of roadways inaccordance with the City standardroadway cross-sections, as shown inFigure 9-3. Cross-sections range fromtwo-lane undivided roadways to 8-lane divided facilities.5.3.3 Create new roadway classifications toaccommodate future traffic demand,including; Divided Major Arterial –Reduced Cross-Section, and DividedArterial – 6-lane. These crosssectionsare shown on Figure 9-3.5.3.4 For planning purposes, utilize LOSstandards shown on Table 5 –1 todetermine recommended roadwaywidths.5.3.5 Ensure that new development pays afair share of costs to provide local andregional transportation improvementsand to mitigate cumulative trafficimpacts. For this purpose, requirenew developments to participate inTransportation Uniform Mitigation FeeProgram (TUMF), the DevelopmentImpact Fee Program (DIF) and anyother applicable transportation feeprograms and benefit assessmentdistricts.5.3.6 Where new developments wouldincrease traffic flows beyond the LOSC (or LOS D, where applicable),require appropriate and feasiblemitigation measures as a condition ofapproval. Such measures may includeMORENO VALLEY GENERAL PLANextra right-of-way and improvementsto accommodate left-turn and rightturnlanes at intersections, or otherimprovements.5.3.7 Provide consideration to projects thathave overriding regional or localbenefits that would be desirable eventhough the LOS standards cannot bemet. These projects would berequired to analyze traffic impacts andmitigate such impacts to the extentthat it is deemed feasible.5.3.8 Pursue arterial improvements that linkand/or cross the State route 60 (SR-60) Freeway, including an additionalover-crossing at Graham Street.5.3.9 Address additional widenings atarterials providing access to SR-60 atDay Street, Frederick Street/PigeonPass road and Perris Boulevard.Objective 5.4Maximize efficiency of the regional circulationsystem through close coordination with stateand regional agencies and implementation ofregional transportation policies.Policies:5.4.1 Coordinate with Caltrans and theRiverside County TransportationCommission (RCTC) to identify andprotect ultimate rights-of-way,including those for freeways, regionalarterial projects, transit, bikeways andinterchange expansion.5.4.2 Coordinate with Caltrans and RCTCregarding the integration of IntelligentTransportation Systems (ITS)consistent with the principles andrecommendations of the InlandEmpire Regional ITS ArchitectureProject.5.4.3 Work with property owners, inPage 9-19 July 11, 2006
