Transportation InformationIn an effort to understand the complex issues associated with the project TRAC collects a variety of transportation related data and information in the evaluation process including: congestion data, safety data, truck traffic, and model derived transportation values; such as, cost/benefit analysis and air quality. The roadway segments associated with the application is the basis of this analysis. Transit and Freight related projects should identify the roadway segments that will receive the benefit from projects implementation.

New project applications must identify the primary roadway segment that will be improved by the project and ancillary roadways that will be improved as part of the project.

Please provide a brief explanation as to how this project will connect an STS resource with a local freight or transit facility or resource

The project will provide an alternative route between I-77 and the Ohio Turnpike in the event of a ramp incident at the existing interchange. FedEx, Yellow Freight, and House of LaRose are all

within the project area.

Will the project facilitate a connection between two or more corridors or modal hubs identified on the STS?

Yes

Please provide a brief explanation as to how this project will facilitate a connection between two or more STS resources.

Completing the Miller Road Interchange and widening I-77 within the project limits will facilitate the I-77 connection with the Ohio Turnpike by reducing congestion.

Will the project connect an STS resource with a local freight or transit facility or resource?

Yes

Strategic Transportation System (STS) Connections

The Strategic Transportation System (STS), identified as part of Access Ohio 2040 - ODOT’s long range transportation plan - stratifies Ohio’s significant transportation corridors and inter-modal hubs across Ohio. Additional information about the STS and Access Ohio 2040 can be view at the Access Ohio 2040 Website

Local Investment factors analysis and evaluation of the dollar value of existing, local built-out attributes such as streets, water, and land use. For this analysis TRAC has standardized the project area as a one-mile "rectangular" buffer around the primary roadway segment. Additionally TRAC also considers percentage of acres served by local services within the rectangular buffer with the following formula: (Length of the primary roadway segment in miles + 2 miles) x 2 miles x 640 acres)

What is the length of the primary roadway segment being improved by the project?
