6 Project Purpose Establish basis for making strategic investments in bicycle and pedestrian districts in the 8-county region. Pilot project in one selected district

7 Phase I Pedestrian/Bicycle Districts Project Objectives Develop tool for identifying pedestrian and bicycle travel demand Identify top candidate districts for strategic investment Phase II Pilot project: pedestrian-bicycle improvement plan for 1-2 districts Methodology to quantify benefits

8 PHASE 1

9 Approach to Phase One Long list of possible districts Assemble data for each district Ratings and weightings Re-evaluate top contenders redefine areas Result: refined list of candidate districts

10 What is a District? Ideas: Traffic Analysis Zone? Neighborhood? Management district? Census division? Team consensus: Something consistent across the region Size appropriate for walking i.e. small and bicycling quite large Result: Define districts as circles around a center

11 Centers Examined Churches Hospitals Schools Universities Colleges Parks Landmarks Institutions Employers METRO stations (P&R, Bus stops) Transportation terminals

12 Lessons from Circular Districts Complete coverage requires overlap Spatial autocorrelation Mapping more challenging All data must be allocated FM RD 1266

13

14 Lessons from Circular Districts Increased level of detail Corresponds closely to actual walking and bicycling areas Center may represent a focal point; easy to identify FM RD 1266

15 Indicators of Success Start with literature review Two-pronged: potential trip conversion + safety Use existing data no data collection Available for all regions equally Applied automatically (without subjectivity)

16 Indicators Population Density Children Elderly Low Income Student Enrollment Trip Attractions Land Use Diversity Employment Diversity Balance of Jobs & Housing Short Work Trips Walk-to-Work Trips Bike-to-Work Trips Bicycle and Pedestrian Crashes Transit Access

17 Scoring Correlation and factor analysis helped reduce number and interpret indicators Values for all factors were aggregated together to produce each center s score Weights assigned to indicators to reflect uniqueness, importance and reliability High-scoring districts exhibit a variety of strong indicators

18 Benavidez El. School, Gulfton, Indicator Scores Indicator Median for all districts Value for this district Rank Contribution to Score Population 471 6, Children 21% 20% 5, Elderly 8% 1% 8, Low-income households 20% 41% Lower education employment Total trip attractions 6,107 37, Higher education enrollment Land-use diversity 42% 68% Employment diversity 60% 55% 5, Balance of households and employment 81% 99% Existing bicycling Existing walking Short (work) trips 138 1, Transit access , Bicycle crashes Pedestrian crashes Total Score 1 st Overall 79.8

19 Top Candidate Districts Gulfton Sharpstown* Montrose Woodlake/ Briarmeadow* Greater Third Ward Near Northside Downtown Houston Galveston (two areas) University Place* Pecan Park Westwood Magnolia Park Binz* Eastwood/Lawndale Midtown Houston* * Overlaps with higher scoring area

20 Harris County

26 Phase II: Pilot Project Selection of district(s) I.D. local sponsor Study existing conditions Design / planning workshops with public Identify improvements Develop projects, costs Success measures Calculate AQ benefits

27 Phase II: Potential Improvements Low Capital Investments: Sidewalks Crosswalks Median Refuge Islands ADA Compliant Ramps Pedestrian Signal Heads Intersection Improvements

28 Phase II: Building Partnerships City of Houston: Primary Client Supports initiative, selects district for study No short-term financial commitment Greater Southeast Management District: Primary purpose is economic development Ability to receive federal funding Possess significant local funding resources Tax Increment Reinvestment Zone #7: OST/Almeda TIRZ assembles stakeholders, officials Potential funding source boundary outside of district Third Ward Redevelopment Council
