Phase 1 Bike Plan_r

Recommendations

Info

METHODS The bicycle mobility network prescribed in this Plan is intended to foster cycling as a meaningful transportation alternative for riders of diverse abilities and to enhance access to essential goods and services for all residents of our community. Thus, as detailed in this section, the planning team undertook a two-part analysis to identify existing and future centers of community activity and to dene key connections between them. Once this network had been dened, the planning team undertook a separate two-part analysis to determine exactly what type of infrastructure should be installed on each segment of the network to uphold the level of safety that the community seeks. 6
Network Development Community Hotspot Analysis The planning team used Geographic Informa on Systems (GIS) to map the loca on of primary des na ons—those places that shape our daily travel—in the project area: TABLE 2: Primary des na ons used to iden fy hubs of community ac vity Primary Des na ons Schools Low Income Housing Transit Food Markets Recrea on and Tourism Parks Civic Ins tu ons Early childhood educa on and daycare centers, elementary/middle/high schools (public and private), higher educa on campuses Sec on 8 or Housing Tax Credit proper es Bus stops, Bike Boardings and Transit sta ons Grocery stores; bakeries; meat, fish, and produce markets; corner store markets Hotels, fitness centers, senior centers, community centers, pools, movie theaters, museums Larger than 2 acres Descrip on City Hall, post offices, public libraries, municipal courts, court houses inside the ghtest buffer ring—a 0.25 mile radius around the des na on—was weighted most heavily; the area inside each successive 0.25 mile ring was assigned a lesser weigh ng, where the outer buffer ring (i.e. the area between 0.75 mile and 1 mile around the des na on) received the lowest score. The team then aggregated the scores between overlapping buffer rings to create a heat map (Figure 1) of the community, where the warmest colors represent the highest scores and depict the greatest concentra on of primary des na ons. The team also considered other supplemental data about how residents currently move around the community: TABLE 3: Supplemental data sources used to iden fy hubs of community ac vity Supplemental Data Travel Demand Model Origin/Des na on Data Popula on and Employment Density Employment to Popula on Ra o Zero Car Households Bike to Work City of Corpus Chris Des na on Nodes Descrip on Data (per Census 2010) about where (in terms of census blocks) car trips begin and end in the community Rela ve density of popula on and employment; areas with higher density of popula on and employment tend to be more urban and thus more likely to support trips by bicycle Rela ve balance of employment opportuni es to popula on density; areas with a ra o closer to 1:1 represent the availability of employment opportuni es in close geographic proximity to commensurate popula on density, thus increasing the likelihood of trips being made by bicycle rather than personal automobile Loca on of zero car households (2009-2013 American Community Survey 5-yr Es mates); zero car households are inherently dependent on other modes of travel, such as cycling, walking and transit Loca on (residences) of individuals that uses bicycle as means of commu ng (2009-2013 American Community Survey 5-yr Es mates) Nine Des na on Nodes—areas that are pre-disposed for redevelopment as compact, efficient, community centers—were iden fied in the City's 2011 Integrated Community Sustainability Plan Figure 1: Heat map of the project area, where warm colors depict hubs of community ac vity as defined by a concentra on of key des na ons such as schools, food markets, parks, civic ins tu ons, transit stops, low income housing loca ons, employment centers, and popula on centers. Once the Primary Des na ons (Table 2, above) and Supplemental Data (Table 3, above) had been mapped, the planning team created four concentric buffer rings around each des na on. The area METHODS 7
