Transportation Master Plan Status Update
OVERVIEW STATEMENT:
recommendation
Following the adoption of the Comprehensive Plan Update, Redmond 2050, the City is working on updating the Transportation Master Plan (TMP). The TMP is the functional strategic plan that guides transportation investment and activities to support the Comprehensive Plan vision. This status update will include progress updates on the workplan for TMP completion, including a detailed review of strategies included in the Bicycle Network and Freight chapters. Bicycle strategies will focus on the development of a high-comfort separated bikeway system and other strategies to achieve the bicycle mode shift needed to achieve the green-house gas reduction goals in the City's Environmental Strategic Plan. Freight strategies will include maintaining Redmond's designated freight street network while enhancing last-mile delivery and planning for emerging technologies such as drone delivery. Staff will provide completed draft Bicycle and Freight TMP chapters. Finally, staff will highlight future Council touchpoints and milestones.
