rate based projections for areas not included in the model and where the model does not provide enough fidelity to cover future high growth facilities As necessary the McAdams team will edit the regional model based on the land use patterns and proposed in the Envision Johnston Comprehensive Land Use Plan and to make manual adjustments to future forecast volumes While the above analysis does primarily focus on vehicular travel the McAdams team will also analyze transit and non - motorized modes quantitatively and qualitatively relative to the vision , goals and objectives established through the public and stakeholder engagement process Alternatives Analysis + Development Based on the needs assessment and utilizing input from the public and stakeholder engagement process , the McAdams team will develop potential multi - modal alternatives that address transportation deficiencies in a way that minimizes impacts to the natural and human environment and is consistent with the community’s vision The McAdams team recognizes that land use patterns can be an effective tool to managing future traffic volumes and maintaining mobility Therefore , we will focus heavily on the future transportation improvements around the nodes identified in the Envision Johnston 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan and will develop transportation policies that support the type of development patterns recommended by the plan The alternatives will also focus on reasonable and feasible on - and off - road pedestrian and bicycle facilities , as well as potential future transit options that would benefit residents of the County and be a reasonable investment of County funds Hot Spot Analysis The McAdams team will work with the stakeholders and working group to identify up to four hot spots for additional detailed analysis , including operational analysis for high priority locations that are of a key concern for the County as defined by the working group , stakeholders and public RECOMMENDATIONS McAdams will refine the alternatives analyzed in the previous task based on the vision , goals and objectives developed during the public and stakeholder engagement , and will develop a final set of recommendations by mode The recommendations will be described in detail and will also be included on CTP maps in a manner consistent with NCDOT documentation standards The recommendations will also include policy recommendations based on a review of the County’s codes , ordinances and development standards During this phase , McAdams staff will also develop recommendations and conceptual designs for the selected hot spots FINAL PLAN DEVELOPMENT + ADOPTIONS McAdams will develop the plan documentation in a manner consistent with NCDOT’s standards , and will develop documentation of the CTP process and recommendations in ESRI Storymap , allowing for a much more user -
