Final Draft Presentation, June 2019
Background
What is the “ First Last Mile” Gap? • A barrier that discourages potential Study riders from using transit because a Goal: station cannot be easily accessed • Can include geography, street network and design, or a (perceived) lack of To identify strategies, available transportation options policies, and • The easier it is to access the system, the infrastructure to improve connectivity to ECO more likely people are to use it Transit to make transit services accessible to more people
Project Timeline and Next Steps
What will this Study Explore? • Collection and analysis of existing data • Toolbox of potential solutions • Bicycle infrastructure • Pedestrian infrastructure • Transportation Demand Management • Ride hailing/shuttles • Bike share • High priority locations for implementation • Cost and implementation considerations
Community Engagement
Recommended Strategies 1.Transportation Demand Management 2.Ride-hailing 3.Bike share expansion 4.Bicycle and Pedestrian infrastructure 5.Alignment with Local Transit Agencies
Transportation Demand Management Toolbox • Marketing and promotion • Parking management • Educational material • Fare structure • Stop amenities • Bikes on/in buses • Trip planning apps • Wayfinding +

Next Steps
• Update ate/Communit ity P y Presentat tatio ions: Present the final recommendations to each community board and share the study with them. • Implem lementat tatio ion: Begin implementing recommendations. MFHC Ride Hailing, Mobile Fare Payments, Coordinated Information Hub. Bike share expansion to Edwards and EagleVail. • Fund undin ing: : Identify funding opportunities to implement first last mile solutions? Work with CDOT and Town’s to improve roadways and bus stops in alignment with plan.
