Long Range Transportation Plan
Socioeconomic Data: At a minimum, population, housing, employment,
school enrollment, and vehicle availability databases will be maintained for
the Planning Area.
Land Use Data: A compilation of local jurisdictions' land use plans
will be developed and maintained.
Transportation Data: Physical changes to the Planning Area's
transportation system will be monitored. Data will be obtained from local
cities and counties, and from the Iowa Department of Transportation. Traffic
counts on the highway and street system will be monitored. Other traffic
counts may be required at sites within the planning area that are not
coincidental with normal coverage or screenline locations. Accident data for
the region, obtained from the Iowa DOT, will be used in analysis of and
improvement of high accident locations using the Iowa DOT's Accident Location
and Analysis System (ALAS). A multimodal transportation database for the
region will be created. This database will be used in the analysis of the
transportation planning program and process and in the development of the
CIRTPA's Horizon Year (HY) 2015 Regional Transportation Plan (RTP). The modes
represented in the database will include transit, bicycle, pedestrian, rail,
freight, and air transportation.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities and Inventory Network Plan Update:
The adopted Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities and Inventory Network Plan will
be monitored to determine bicycle and pedestrian facilities and routes in the
region. Work will continue, as necessary, to update the information and
routes in the CIRTPA Bicycle and Pedestrian Facilities and Inventory Network.
Products
