Scope of Work • NC Moves 2050 Plan (2021) • Orange County Comprehensive Transportation Plan (2013) • Orange County Comprehensive Plan (2008) The Client will identify current transportation improvement projects, include existing, committed, and planned roadways, bicycle and pedestrian, and public transit improvement projects. The Consultant will review these identified projects for identified bike and pedestrian transportation improvements. CTT members will identify completed projects, errors, or omissions in prior plans, current or anticipated County priorities, and other pertinent information. The Client will identify and provide relevant GIS data and/or links to publicly available data as requested in the data needs list. These may include data from Orange County and its municipal jurisdictions, NCDOT Traffic Safety Unit (TSU), NCDOT Integrated Mobility Division (IMD), and the statewide NC One Map data library. The Consultant will integrate relevant GIS datasets from multiple sources into file geodatabase (.GDB) format, shared with the client team, and with the final plan appendix deliverable. Once assembled, the Consultant will analyze physical and infrastructure conditions throughout the study area, in addition to public destinations (parks, schools, grocery stores) and areas of interest for walking or biking. The Consultant will examine transportation-disadvantaged populations using the NCDOT IMD Transportation Disadvantage Index (TDI) planning tool, and utilize these findings for project prioritization. TASK 3 DELIVERABLES: • Review and summary of prior planning efforts and policy • Assembly of GIS data resources, and current mobility file geodatabase (.GDB) • List of planned roadway resurfacing projects TASK 4: MULTIMODAL ACCESS NETWORK The Consultant will use synthesized existing conditions (Task 3) and public feedback (Task 2) to construct draft network maps of pedestrian and bicycle facilities that are compatible with NCDOT Comprehensive Transportation Plan (CTP) categories. The Client team and CTT members will review these networks, and edits will be incorporated. The pedestrian network will form the long-term vision for linear pedestrian facilities and crossing facilities, and may include sidewalks, sidepaths, greenways, trails, midblock crossings, or intersection improvements. The bicycle network will form the long-term vision for linear bicycle facilities and crossing improvements, and may include shared streets, on-road bikeways, off-road bikeways, greenways, trails, or intersection improvements. The Consultant and Client will review and revise these networks in a collaborative, iterative process to prioritize consistency and facilitate ease of integration into future updates of regional transportation plans (CTP, MTP, STIP). Digital files and source data will be shared with the Client during the planning process, and upon completion of the project, as an appendix. TASK 4 DELIVERABLES: • Draft and Final Network Plans (Bicycle and Pedestrian) • Digital Network Plans (Bicycle and Pedestrian) TASK 5: PRIORITIZATION OF NETWORK GAPS This task refines the network plan developed in Task 4 to a prioritized list of project recommendations based upon designated evaluation criteria. The Consultant will identify network gaps, as well as an initial evaluation methodology based upon the 2024 Transportation Multimodal Plan prioritization process. PWG members will be tasked with review, refinement, Page 3
