Multi-Modal Transportation Study Public Meeting
The City of Dublin hosted a public input session as part of its ongoing Multi-Modal Transportation Study (MMTS) on July, 26, 2010. The session featured stations presenting goals and ideas about transportation within Dublin that were created through previous public meetings and the online survey. Materials utilized for this meeting will be posted shortly.

Background
Since May, Planning has been conducting preliminary work to undertake a Multi-Modal Transportation Study (MMTS) to evaluate both traditional and alternative transportation modes. The MMTS is intended to build on the City Council’s 2008 Goal stating: “Evaluate multiple modes of transportation, such as bike lanes and public transportation, for possible implementation in future capital improvement programs.”
For the purposes of the study, traditional transportation modes include a wide range of transportation options. In addition to automobiles, the other “modes” being examined include walking, bicycles, accommodations for mass-transit, air travel, rail service, and future options that may affect the transportation network of the City. The study will analyze how all modes of transportation can be effectively coordinated with expected land uses and infrastructure into the future. The MMTS Team consisting of staff from several City departments, including Planning, Parks and Open Space, Recreation Services, Engineering, City Manager’s Office, Finance, Community Relations and GIS has been collecting data and identifying issues on alternative transportation modes and how they might be incorporated into the existing and future networks.
The coordinated evaluation of transportation modes will serve as a further refinement of the Thoroughfare Plan adopted as part of the 2007 Dublin Community Plan. The proposed study will help determine how different areas of the city can be best served by available modes of transportation in a manner that will serve the public with efficiency and convenience. A major component of research includes what land use and Code alterations may be needed to seamlessly incorporate new transit modes, as well as maintenance issues, effects on new development, funding sources and city-wide benefits.
This effort will be coordinated with the efforts of the Bicycle Advisory Task Force (BATF) to ensure that its recommendations on this mode of travel will be incorporated into existing and future transportation initiatives. To this end, the MMTS Team will rely on the BATF for the study of bicycle needs and solutions. The BATF will be gathering information through monthly meetings that are tentatively scheduled to be concluded in December of 2010.
