  1. Florida Department of Transportation Citizens Technical Advisory Committee Meeting January 8, 2014 Efficient Transportation Decision Making Number: 13768 Financial Management Number: 430637-1-22-01 Federal Aid Project Number: 6107-002-U

  2. Public Planning Involvement Public Involvement Engineering P. D. & E. Analysis Environmental Final Design Analysis Right of Way Construction

  3. Develop Concepts Data Collection Select Concept • No Build Alternative • Traffic • Prepare Reports • Traffic System • Engineering • Compare Concepts Management • Environmental • Select Concept • Build Alternatives • Public Kickoff Meeting • Public Hearing • Public Workshop Public and Agency Involvement Project Development & Environment Study

  4.  Develop and evaluate engineering and environmentally feasible alternative solutions that meet the need determined in the Planning Phase  Evaluate potential impacts to the social, natural, and physical environments and determine ways to avoid or minimize impacts  Inform and involve the public in the development of the project alternatives  Process is mandated by the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and state law. Represents a combined effort by technical professionals who analyze information and document the best alternative for a community’s transportation needs.

  5. Broward County Project Limits End Project at Premier Parkway • Begins at NW 183 rd Street • Ends at Premier Parkway • Project Length 2.37 Miles Begin Project at • Miami-Dade and NW 183 Street Broward County

  6.  Provide additional roadway capacity to accommodate projected traffic growth.  Provide a continuous north-south 4-lane lane divided roadway between Miami-Dade and Broward Counties.  Enhance Safety for Pedestrians, Bicyclists, and Transit users.  Maintain consistency with regional transportation plans.

  8. SR 847 Average Annual Daily Traffic (AADT) and Level of Service (LOS) 40,000 39,500 Vehicles Per Day 35,000 30,000 LOS 25,000 C 22,000 20,000 LOS 15,000 F 10,000 5,000 0 2 Lane Road 4 Lane Road Year 2012 Year 2040

  9.  Future Traffic Conditions in Year 2035 ◦ No Build 2 Lane Alternative  Without Improvements LOS F  Does Not Meet LOS D Standard ◦ Build 4 Lane Alternative  Achieves LOS C  Above LOS D Standard  Project Need: 4-Lane Divided Roadway ◦ 2 Northbound Lanes and 2 Southbound Lanes

  10.  No Turn Lanes  Cracked Pavement  No Bike Lanes  Lacks Paved Shoulders  Missing Pedestrian  Old Drainage System Ramps

  11. Per Plat: The Limited Access R/W as shown at the rear of lots…are hereby designated for the express purpose of preventing the direct vehicular and pedestrian traffic to and from the adjoining arterial roads.

  12. Per Platt: The Limited Access R/W as shown at the rear of lots ….on the attached plat are hereby designated for the express purpose of preventing the direct vehicular and pedestrian traffic to and from the adjoining arterial roads.

  13. 300  250 Crashes 200 South of NW Crashes 199 th Street 100 0  36 Crashes South of North of North of NW NW 199 NW 199 199 th Street. Street Street 5 Yr. Crashes Annual Crashes 199 th St. North of NW 199 th St. South of NW 199 th St.

  14.  2 Mast Arm ◦ NW 183 rd Street ◦ NW 199 th Street  2 Span Wire ◦ NW 191 ST Street ◦ NW 195 th Street  Needed Improvements ◦ Pedestrian Features ◦ ADA Compliance ◦ Turn Lanes

  15.  Missing Sidewalks at School Crossings  Streets Lack Turn Lanes for Bus Access  Nearby Schools ◦ Skyway Elementary School ◦ North Gardens High School ◦ Miami Gardens Elementary School ◦ Sandor Wiener School of Opportunity

  16.  No Bicycle Lanes  Sidewalk and Paved Shoulder Present on Only One Side in Areas  Sidewalks in Poor Condition  Missing Pedestrian Signals  Pedestrian Ramps Not Fully Compliant with Americans with Disabilities (ADA)

  17. Active Bus Ridership Typical Transit Shelter Shelter without ADA-compliant sidewalk Transit Shelter with ADA sidewalk

  18.  No Build or No Action alternative maintains the existing condition and is used as a baseline to compare the build alternatives.  Transportation Systems Management (TSM) alternative utilizes non capacity type improvements to improve traffic flow.  Build alternatives are major improvements that meet the project need through the design year.

  19.  Construct a 4 Lane Divided Roadway to be compatible with the north and south termini.  Improve Safety for Pedestrians, Bicyclists, and Transit users.  New sidewalk, bicycle lanes, street lighting, drainage system, traffic signals, and crosswalks.  Landscape design is concurrent with roadway design but under a separate construction project.

  20.  Design Speed 45 MPH  4 Ft Bike Lanes  12 Ft Travel Lanes  No U-Turns  22 Ft Median  Design Variation

  21.  Design Speed 40 MPH  4 Ft Bike Lanes  11 Ft Travel Lanes  Allows U-Turns  26 Ft Median

  22.  40 MPH Design Speed  11 Ft Lanes  4 Ft Bike Lanes  2 Medians Types ◦ 26 ft Wide ◦ 14 Ft Wide  U-Turns provided at some locations  Lower Access Control

  23.  40 MPH Design Speed  No U-Turns Provided  11 Ft Lanes  No Left Turns Out from Property onto SR 847  4 Ft Bike Lanes  15.5 FT Median

  24. Departure Route Arrival Route Homes Affected Due to Loss of U-Turns and Left Turn Out

  25. Departure Route Arrival Route Homes Affected Due to Loss of U-Turns and Left Turn Out

  26.  Bridge is No Long Needed  Culvert Was Placed Under The Bridge  Canal Was Backfilled

  27. Existing Bridge  2 Traffic Lanes  Sidewalks and Bridge Rail Need Improvement

  28.  Utilizes the existing pile/cap substructure  Lower cost that replacement bridge  6.75 ft Sidewalks  5.33 ft Shoulders / Bike Lanes

  29.  2 High Risk Sites  6 Medium Risk Sites  22 Low Risk Sites  North Dade Trash and Recycling Center  0.04 acres of stormwater swales  1.31 acres of construction activities within other surface waters.  Impacts Will Be Minimized  Analysis and Agency Coordination Underway

  30.  Increase for No Build and Build Alternatives 4 db(A) to 6 db(A)  Noise Barrier Analysis is Underway  Analysis and Agency Coordination Underway
