A portion of the project will .look for opportunities to expand <br /> and improve the existing network of multi-use paths and trails along the river and to provide <br /> connectivity to other paths and key destinations in the region, including Coburg, Junction City, <br /> and downtown Eugene and Springfield. <br /> Lead Agency: LCOG <br /> Partner Agencies: Lane County, LCOG and Springfield <br /> Current Status: Initial Planning <br /> Estimated Completion: December 2009 <br /> TRANSPORTATION GROWTH MANAGEMENT (TGM) PROGRAM <br /> TGM Projects Inside the MPO <br /> Lane Transit District Long Range Transit Plan <br /> The purpose of this project is to develop along-range regional transit plan for the Eugene- <br /> Springfield area. Changes in the planning relationship between Eugene, Springfield and Lane <br /> County will soon lead to the adoption by each of individual Transportation System Plans (TSPs). <br /> The regional plan (TransPlan) adopted in 2001 by each of these agencies as well as the Lane <br /> Transit District (LTD) will no longer be in effect. As a result, the transit element developed by <br /> LTD for TransPlan (policy set, project list, and performance measures) needs to be updated and <br /> recast to serve as a basis for the transit elements required in each of the individual TSPs. <br /> Development of the long range regional transit plan will provide a formal basis for integrating <br /> future transit service and facility planning effectively with planned growth and development in <br /> the Eugene-Springfield region. The Plan will also aid local jurisdictions in updating. their <br /> Transportation System Plans (TSPs) and other planning documents and serve as a key part of <br /> the strategic framework for reductions in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and vehicle miles <br /> traveled (VMT) at the local and regional level. <br /> Lead Agency: LTD <br /> Partner Agencies: City of Eugene, City of Springfield, FTA, and LCOG <br /> Current.

The .IAMP must update alternatives from the <br /> existing Interchange Refinement Plan and consider other design options to address the <br /> increasing traffic demands on the interchange. The TAMP must address the future interchange <br /> needs and alternatives based on the City's future plans for growth, though the addition of new <br /> commercial or industrial lands to the City urban growth boundary may require additional <br /> analysis that is beyond the scope of the IAMP. <br /> :Central Lane MPO Unified Planning Work Program FY 2010 and 2011 <br /> <br />
