Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Transportation Impacts of the Park Plaza Urban Renewal Project: Prepared for Boston Redevelopment Authority, Boston, Massachusetts
Cambridge Systematics is pleased to submit this final report, Transporta tion Impacts of the Park Plaza Urban Renewal Project, representing one compon ent of the environmental analysis currently being performed for Park Plaza. The report identifies existing transportation services and characteristics in the Park Square area of Boston; forecasts transportation conditions in 1985; estimates the trip-making behavior of Park Plaza occupants and visitors, in cluding the modes and routes of travel utilized and the impacts which these projected new trips would have on the area's transportation facilities; and develop measures that could be undertaken in conjunction with construction of Park Plaza which would have the effect of reducing and possibly eliminating potentially adverse transportation impacts. Each of the transportation facil ities that would serve the Park Plaza site area is examined: local streets and intersections, rapid transit lines and stations, commuter rail facilities, bus routes, pedestrian movements, and automobile parking. Several key findings are apparent from the analyses which have been per formed. While these are developed in detail within the body of the report, the following represents a general summary.
