  1. Elk Grove – Rancho Cordova –El Dorado Connector Project Elk Grove – Ranch Cordova – El Dorado Connector Joint Powers Authority Project BriefingJPA Board Meeting – March 28, 2008

  2. Phase I Study Outcomes • Draft Purpose and Need Statement • Preliminary Project Development • Draft Functional Guidelines • Environmental Screening • Costs and Funding Options (Limited) • Governance Options (Selected)

  3. General Need • Mobility • To improve access to, and connections between, residential and employment areas lost or compromised due to increasing congestion • Land Use • To assist in preservation of open space and habitat that may be threatened as the region develops.

  4. Draft Project Need • Options: Insufficient transportation options for personal and goods/freight movement to, from, and within the corridor. • Non-Local Traffic: Local streets increasingly subject to congestion and use by non-local traffic. • Emergency Access: Study area needs an all-weather transportation facility to enable emergency vehicle access. • Safety: Increasing traffic will degrade safety of existing facilities; improvements are needed to ensure safety and security of travel by all modes (automobile, transit, bicycle, and pedestrian). • Open Space Preservation: Development is encroaching on open space and wildlife habitat; planning is needed to preserve these resources and ensure access to open space. • Jobs-Housing-Transportation Access: Well planned transportation improvements needed to accompany and support housing and job growth to ensure that growth proceeds along planned patterns.

  5. Draft Project Purpose • Mobility Enhancement: Enhance mobility options within corridor to serve and support growth and development patterns and principles from the approved MTP land use allocations, while minimizing impacts to livability of communities along the corridor. • Economic Development: Aid economic vitality by improving access to job centers and commercial areas, facilitating goods movement, and enhancing the attractiveness of existing and planned employment and commercial areas. • Balanced Transportation System: Provide efficient transportation options that balance transportation needs between local access and regional demand; enable flexibility among modes, while incorporating ITS elements where possible. • Open Space Preservation/Growth Management: Preserve open space, wildlife habitat, and productive agricultural uses and minimize growth inducement.

  6. Functional Guidelines Principles • Improve Access and Connectivity • Support MTP and General Plans • Relieve Demand (Local and Regional) • Control Access / Minimize Growth Inducement • Enhance Mobility and Preserve Livability • Provide Efficient and Safe Facilities for all Modes • Minimize Physical Impacts • Preserve Open Space / Support Approved Plans • Permit Phased Implementation

  7. Functional Guidelines Subjects • Connector Roadway • Capacity and Cross-Section • Access Characteristics • Profile • Design Aesthetics, Materials, and Maintenance • Transit Services • Non-Motorized Facilities • Open Space Preservation • Other Facilities

  8. Alternatives • Alternative 1: Sunrise • Alternative 2: Grant Line • Alternative 3: Grant Line • Alternative 4: Bradshaw • Sheldon Variations (Apply to Alts 1, 2, and 3) • A: Bypass • B: Tunnel • C: At Grade

  14. Environmental Screening • Resource Data collection • Floodplains • Socio-economic issues • Land use data • Preliminary Roadway Footprint • Draft Quantitative and Qualitative Measures

  15. Screening Results • Some Differences Among Concepts • Natural Resources: Appear to be No “Fatal Flaws” • Potential Land Use and Socio-economic issues • Alternatives 1 and 4 • Alternatives Using Grant Line • Greater Growth Inducement Potential

  16. Project Cost ($2006 in Millions)

  17. Conceptual Project Phasing

  18. Phase 1 Final Report Products • Draft Purpose and Need Statement • Project Conceptual Design • Travel Demand Analysis • Draft Functional Guidelines • Environmental Screening Analysis • Comparison of Concept Alternatives • Conceptual Project Cost / Funding Options (limited) • Project Phasing and Implementation
