Outline • Schedule & Process Recap • Evaluation Results • Process • Highway 77 Options • Cedar Grove Transit Access • Discussion
Evaluation Process • Conduct technical evaluation • Use goals, objectives, evaluation criteria • Assign summary ratings • = Good Rating • = Fair Rating • = Poor Rating • Refine evaluation results, conduct further analysis • Review by objective, not just goal • Identify key differentiators ● ◐ ●

Results Summary (by goal) ○
Key Differentiators (by objective) Captured in cost Captured in travel time Measuring similar things… same ratings Costs can be combined
Estimated Ridership Elasticity • Problematic to calculate • -0.30 rule of thumb • Assume 10% increase in travel time results in a 3% decrease in ridership
Cost per Minute Saved • Transit only bridge under TH 13 options • West side station options • Median access/station options
Next Steps • Respond to questions • Continue analysis of key differentiators • Public Open House – Oct 2 (Eagan City Hall, 4:30-6:30) • PAC meeting – Oct 9 • Next TAC/SAC meeting – Oct 23
Combined Travel Time Savings Transit travel time savings – passenger walk time x number of passengers = total travel time savings • West side station walk distance ~ 900 ft • Apple Valley Transit Station walk distance ~ 300 ft
Travel Time Savings Transit travel time savings – passenger walk time x number of passengers = total travel time savings
Travel Time Savings Sensitivity Analysis • Currently, the bus travel time savings to through riders outweighs the added walk time for Cedar Grove riders to cross the pedestrian overpass • What if ridership doubles at Cedar Grove in the future?
