CUSHMAN TRAIL PHASE V PLANNING STUDY GUIDING PRINCIPLES GUIDING PRINCIPLES The phase 5 trail extension will building upon the fi rst 4 phases. The trail will maintain a 10’ wide paved surface with gravel shoulders, and serve as a non-motorized multi-purpose trail. Final trail design will comply with local adopted standards for a shared use path. DEFINITIONS Prioritizes a trail corridor with safe crossings of all roadways and intersections, trail separation from vehicle traffi c, open site lines along the trail, numerous Safety and security of trail entrances and exit points, and minimizes hiding spots. Prioritizes universal use by all ages and physical abilities by minimizing steep slopes. Accessibility of trail Ease of maintenance Prioritizes limiting long-term maintenance efforts across entirety of the trail through a reduction in the number of off-grade structures (e.g. bridges, tunnels, boardwalks, etc.) and careful material selection; minimizes disruption to partner agency maintenance (i.e. does not negatively impact access to infrastructure such as power lines, culverts, maintained ditches, etc.), lessens new and out of the way territory for maintenance crews. Prioritizes a route which minimizes tree removals, wetland impacts, and habitat disruption during– and post–construction. Limits impact to natural environment Prioritizes a route with the lowest up-front construction costs by minimizing the number of off–grade structures along the trail, utilizing existing pavement, and Construction Cost minimizing the need to purchase additional right of way. Prioritizes routes with the highest potential to receive outside funding from grants and partnership opportunities with other organizations and agencies, and Create opportunities for tailoring trail/offshoots to better align with funding sources. Many grant opportunities will also require the trail to meet federal standards (in addition to local funding partnerships adopted standards). Prioritizes routes that connect to identifi ed waypoints. Waypoints include Purdy, St. Anthony Hospital, businesses, Peninsula High School, Purdy Elementary Connections to waypoints School, transit stops, other communities, and connections to existing trails and/or routes to the north. and major destinations Prioritizes a route in close proximity to nature where families, walkers, recreational bicyclists, and alternative wheeled transportations can use the trail for Trails proximity to nature exercise, enjoyment of the outdoors, views, and scenic journeys away from loud roads.
