The Gloucester County Transportation Needs Study was a two-year, three-phase study undertaken by DVRPC to assist Gloucester County with the preparation of the transportation element of an updated County Master Plan. The study emphasized Smart Growth principles, multi-modal commuting, and the relationship between land use and transportation. A version of the DVRPC regional travel demand model was prepared for the study with focus on the high-growth portions of the county. The modeling aspect assisted in determining the transportation improvements needed to accommodate the expected demands of future growth. Additionally, DVRPC conducted a station-area analysis for rail stations to be served by the locally preferred alternative of the PATCO South Jersey expansion project, the Glassboro-Camden Line. The station-area analysis looked beyond the immediate stations and determined improvements that may be needed in the surrounding areas to connect people (vehicles, cyclists, pedestrians) with the stations.Geographic Area Covered: Gloucester County Transportation Needs Study
Key Words: development centers, regional travel demand forecasting, capital improvement plan, transportation demand management, congestion management, transportation improvement program, light rail, bus rapid transit, smart growth, access management, park-n-ride, transit oriented development, multi-modal mobility
