PRIORITIZATION AND TEN-YEAR PLAN 4-1

This chapter features a brief summary of the prioritization process and the selection of priority projects to focus on over a ten year time frame. These projects are mostly Separated Bikeways and Neighborhood Bikeways that, along with the Capital Area Greenway System, form the All Ages and Abilities network. They are selected based on their prioritization ranking, their ability to connect key destinations and complement existing and programmed facilities, their ability to be built within existing curbs, as well input from the public, city staff, and the project Steering Committee.

Maps at the end of this chapter articulate a vision of what bicycle infrastructure is likely to become in the City of Raleigh within the next decade. In addition to the priority projects recommended by this plan, the maps include existing on-street bicycle facilities, bicycle facilities to be provided by currently programmed street projects, the existing network of greenway trails, and the anticipated next phase of greenway trail construction. These also show priorities from the 2016 update that are not able to fit between existing curbs and need additional resources.

PRIORITIZATION PROCESSThe recommended long-term network described in Chapter 3 was divided into segments and each segment was then ranked by six weighted criteria. The prioritization matrix found in Appendix C provides full results of this exercise.

4-2 PRIORITIZATION AND TEN-YEAR PLAN

Projects in the Ten Year Priority Plan were selected from high-ranking projects by city staff, consultants, and Steering Committee members. Many of these projects implement portions of the recently adopted Downtown Plan or will support the planned bike share system. Some projects implement portions of other plans nearing completion, including the Six Forks Corridor Study, the Southern Gateway Corridor Study, and the Cameron Village - Hillsborough Street Small Area Plans. Some projects also serve newly-acquired Dix park.

There are projects that earn high scores in the prioritization matrix, but for which there is no clear implementation path in the five to ten year time frame. In these cases, this plan recommends that the result be used to inform greenway trail prioritization. The goal is to prioritize greenway trails and off-street connectors serving areas where on-street facilities are not feasible.

The projects in the Ten Year Priority Plan will require significant planning, design, and community involvement in order to fully implement. The BikeRaleigh Plan Update is a big-picture, city-wide plan which cannot precisely determine project alternatives or scope. In some cases, the street alignments or project endpoints are likely to change through the implementation process.
