strategies, programs and incentives that achieve reductions in single-occupant vehicle <br />trips, vehicle-miles traveled, and greenhouse gas emissions through travel behavior <br />change. The Action Planis summarized in the 2050TPPTravel Demand Management <br />Investment Plan. <br />System Plan Considerations Affecting Your Community <br />Your community should consult the complete TPP in preparing its local comprehensive plan. In <br />addition, your communityshould consult Imagine 2050 and the current version of the <br />Metropolitan Council’s Local Planning Handbook (LPH) for specific information needed in its <br />comprehensive plan. Specific system plan considerations affecting your community are <br />detailed below. <br />Regional HighwaySystem <br />There is a principal arterial located within your community: <br /> US Highway 10 <br />The TPP includes programmed safety investments in your community, these investments can <br />be seen on this system statement and in Figure 7 of the TPP. Communities should incorporate <br />these investments in your local plans and consider local planning to support these investments <br />on your local system. <br />Regional Transit System <br />Your community is located within the following Transit Market Areas:TMA 3, TMA 4, and TMA <br />5. Your communityis located within the Transit Capital Levy District. <br /> TMA 3 is primarily lower density Urban Edge and Suburban communities. It is <br />characterized by lower density and less transit-supportive street networks and land use <br />but with some pockets of denser development. Transit service in this market area <br />includes suburban local routes, express and commuter service, and non-regular route <br />transit services, usually dial-a-ride, providing basic transportation access. <br /> TMA 4 is primarily Suburban Edge communities along with portions of Suburban <br />communities. It is characterized by low population and job densities that do not support <br />frequent local transit service and a spread out, often circuitous, street network that <br />hinders efficient routing. Transit service in Market Area 4 is mainly peak-period express <br />and commuter service at park-and- rides which can effectively gather the lower density <br />transit demand into one spot. There are some suburban local routes, including suburb- <br />to-suburb connectors, although service is typically very infrequent. Non-regular route <br />transit, usually dial-a-ride, is generally available. <br /> TMA 5 is primarily Rural communities including rural centers but also some suburban <br />edge communities as well as freestanding town centers characterized by very low- <br />density development or undeveloped land not well suited for regular-route transit <br />service outside of limited peak-period express and commuter service. <br />Your community should acknowledge in your local comprehensive plan existing transitway and <br />planned investments for your community in the TPP. The transitway with a mode and <br />alignment identified located within your community is: Northstar. <br />2025 SYSTEM STATEMENTTRANSPORTATION12 <br /> <br />
