West Elizabeth Enhanced Travel Corridor PROJECT DESCRIPTION: The West Elizabeth corridor is identified in the Transportation Master Plan (TMP) as part of a citywide network of Enhanced Travel Corridors (ETCs) – uniquely designed corridors with an emphasis on high-frequency transit, bicycling, and walking as a way to support and manage growth. Planning and Zoning Board Agenda Planning and Zoning Board Page 2 October 13, 2016 The West Elizabeth ETC plan covers the area between Overland Trail and Shields (as well as the CSU Foothills and Main Campuses) and between Mulberry and Prospect. The plan has a special focus on addressing existing deficiencies, such as inadequate transit service for the area’s demands, incomplete bike and pedestrian networks, and higher than expected numbers of crashes in certain locations. The project has developed recommended short- and long- term improvements for the corridor, with the intent of improving safety and functionality for all users. Key improvements include transit system alignment and frequency changes, bicycle and pedestrian facility improvements, and intersection and lane configuration changes. The Planning & Zoning Board is asked to make a recommendation to City Council on whether the Plan should be formally adopted. APPLICANT: City of Fort Collins 3.
