1 6.3C BICYCLE STUDY PRIORITIES PAGE 6 Appendix C Complete Bicycle Network Project Prioritization This appendix provides a prioritized list of proposed bicycle facilities within each of the municipalities covered by the bikesheds developed for the Bottineau LRT / Metro Blue Line Extension Bicycle Study. Municipalities are included that do not lie along the Bottineau LRT corridor as the bikesheds extend beyond the corridor. IDENTIFYING PROJECTS FOR PRIORITIZATION For the purposes of the prioritization process, the proposed network needs to be divided into distinct projects. The following are the proposed criteria for distinguishing projects. Criteria Include facilities that are planned by city or county or park agencies, or proposed by this study. Exclude projects that do not touch a bikeshed. In some areas of limited network connectivity, a facility outside of the bikeshed is included as a critical link to close a small gap that would otherwise be left in the proposed network. All facilities proposed on a street or corridor will be considered one project (e.g., bike lanes and a trail proposed for one street). Projects will be split by municipality regardless of who is responsible for the roadway or right of way. Proposed facilities that fill gaps in a network corridor will be considered one project, rather than separate projects. Proposed facilities of the same or different types will be grouped as one project if the facilities are dependent on each other to fully close a gap in the network or reach a destination. PRIORITIZATION CRITERIA Projects identified in the study are ranked and prioritized corridor wide and by municipality using the following criteria in Figure 1. The criteria prioritize projects which create direct connections to proposed LRT stations, improve corridors with a history of bicycle crashes, fill small gaps, as well as connecting jobs, residents, and zero-car households. Proximity to LRT station was calculated using a spatial join. The number of bicycle crashes per mile was calculated by count of crashes along the project corridor. Data on zero car households was collected from the 2013 Census block group level within a 500-foot buffer of project corridors. Similarly, data on residents was collected from the 2010 Census block level and jobs data was collected from the 2013 Census Longitudinal Employer-Household Dynamics (LEHD) program dataset within a 500-foot buffer of projects. To normalize projects of varying distance, the number of residents and jobs was calculated per project mile. The specific metric scores for each project are calculated relative to all projects, not in absolute terms. The data for each metric is aggregated into percentile terms ranging from 0 (lowest) to 10 (highest) among all projects, signifying the relative standing of each project in the LRT corridor.

2 6.3C BICYCLE STUDY PRIORITIES PAGE 7 Figure 1 Prioritization Criteria Criteria Notes Value Weighting Is the project located close to an LRT station? Does the project create a direct connection to an LRT station? Does the project address a known safety concern? How many zero car households does the project serve? How many employees and residents does the project serve? Does the project directly serve schools and libraries? Does the project improve connections to the regional trail network and the Metropolitan Council s regional bicycle transportation network? Proximity to LRT station point in GIS Connection to an LRT station Yes = 15 No = 0 Bicycles crashes per mile Assigned zero car households to each project based on adjacent blocks Assigned jobs to each project based on LEHD data points; assigned population to each project based on adjacent blocks Known schools and libraries per mile Proximity to trail or bicycle transportation network segment in GIS PRIORITIZED PROJECTS BY MUNICIPALITY Projects ranked on a scale of 0 to 10 based on employment density (jobs + population per mile) The following pages illustrate prioritized project maps and prioritization scores for all projects in each municipality. Projects are uniquely colored to illustrate project limits only, and do not symbolize additional information for the following municipalities. Values displayed in the tables represent project scores for each criteria category as described in Figure 1.
