41 <br /> • <br /> SUMMARY <br /> This has been an overview of the recommended Thoroughfare Plan. It must be noted <br /> that the Thoroughfare Plan is only one element of the total transportation system <br /> and transportation planning effort of the area. It is the primary planning document <br /> for the road element of the total transportation system. Other elements such as <br /> ridesharing, transit, bicycling, and pedestrian movement are also part of the <br /> system and there are on-going efforts in all of these. It should also be noted that <br /> the Thoroughfare Plan is itself an interrelated system of roads and any change (or <br /> deletion) of one facility has a ripple effect throughout the system as the trips <br /> carried by that facility are redistributed. It is therefore necessary to analyze <br /> any changes to evaluate the impacts and adjust the plan accordingly. <br /> With this background the Durham-Chapel Hill-Carrboro Technical Coordinating <br /> Committee submits the Thoroughfare Plan for consideration and ultimate adoption. <br /> There will be follow-up meetings with the various elected policy boards as shown <br /> in attachment A. There will be a series of public hearings held in the various <br /> quadrants for public input into the plan. The times, dates, and locations are shown <br /> in attachment B. <br /> 5.$ <br />
