4CITE Master Plan - Objectives

• Evaluate Transportation Planning Issues

• Gather existing data on land use, economics, environmental

• Consider future transportation conditions

• Evaluate impacts of growth

• Develop prioritized recommendations for transportation needs

• Build consensus and support for 4CITE

Role of the PAC / TWG

• Share info on plans/projects in the region

• Support data collection

• Help build alternatives

• Evaluate alternatives

• Refine recommendations

The PLAN is

•Collection of existing conditions / planned projects

•General evaluations of future growth scenarios

•Quantitative and Qualitative view of regional transportation as it relates to 4CITE

•Collection of recommendations for further evaluations

The PLAN is NOT

•A regional transportation plan for Gallup or the NWCOG area

•A traffic demand model

Technical Approach-Transportation Analysis

Land Use

• Study team will identify and confirm appropriate land use assumptions for each scenario.

TripGeneration

• Daily and peak period trip generation will be estimated using ITE trip generation rates.

Trip Distribution

• Anticipated origins and destinations of generated trips will be derived based on review of community demographics and travel patterns from the 2040 NMDOT statewide travel demand model.

Trip Assignment

• Origins and destinations from generated trips will logically be assigned to the roadway network.

Background Traffic

• “Background” traffic anticipated on the study area roadways will be defined based on the traffic forecasts from the existing 2040 NMDOT statewide model and combined with generated traffic volumes.

Analysis

• Performance of the network will be computed through a comparison of daily traffic volumes and roadway capacities (v/c ratio) and through a peak hour assessment in Synchro
