SUMMARY LAND USE IMPACTS ON TRANSPORTATION <br />The projections underscore the importance of providing <br />alternative east -west collector routes to reduce the impact of <br />short trips on T.H. 10. Additional relief will be provided for <br />this segment of T.H. 10 upon the completion of the 116 bridge <br />crossing the Rum River. <br />To the extent possible, the City should encourage the following <br />steps to help to reduce impact on the metropolitan highway <br />system: <br />Encourage ride sharing by area businesses /employees. <br />Encourage and aid special transportation /transit services <br />for the elderly and disabled. <br />- Coordinate with the Regional Transit board to identify needs <br />and services. <br />Continue with frontage road development along T.H.10. <br />Strengthen east -west collector routes. <br />- <br />Continue pursuing a new Mississippi River Crossing. <br />Provide alternatives such as walkways and bikeways to reduce <br />short vehicle trips particularly in the urban area. <br />32 <br />
