This included an examination of construction period impacts, as well as station area <br />development issues. BBPC Associates' analysis was utilized to finalize the station area development plans <br />and proceed with the initial highly successful starter line. BBPC Associates was subsequently selected to <br />undertake transportation impact and joint development evaluations of now completed extensions to the <br />starter light rail transit system. <br /> <br />St. Louis, Missouri <br /> <br />BBPC Associates undertook an economic development and joint development analysis of alternative <br />corridors for proposed light rail transit system in the St. Louis metropolitan area. BBPC Associates <br />undertook a detailed evaluation of station area impacts on terms of land use, development opportunities <br />and public/private sector funding scenarios. BBPC Associates' analysis was utilized to select a preferred <br />alignment, refine station area locations and achieve local and UMT A approval for the currently under <br />construction light rail transit system. <br /> <br />Columbus, Ohio <br /> <br />BBPC Associates played a major role in evaluating the economic impact, joint development potential and <br />financing and funding feasibility of light rail transit alternatives for the Columbus metropolitan area. A <br />particular focus took place in the downtown, north and 1-670 corridor areas. BBPC Associates <br />undertook a joint development financial planning evaluation, The results of the analysis determined that <br />it was premature at this time to move forward with light rail transit from an economic and joint <br />development perspective. The analysis, however, did identify a series of highway and road <br />improvements, as well as local area planning procedures, to address neighborhood community <br />revitalization objectives. <br /> <br />BBPC Associates is heading a large multidisciplinary team evaluating the development potential and <br />economic impact of a light rail rapid transit extension of a present transit line through the Town of <br />Amherst to the State University of New York at Buffalo and the Audubon new community. This <br />evaluation includes the overall economic potential on the region in terms of net new and transfer <br />development, Specific station area development plans and opportunities are being identified. A detailed <br />financial plan which can maximize value capture potentials for the transportation system is being <br />formulated. <br /> <br />-2- <br />
