1 Integrated Land Use, Transportation & Air Quality Planning in the Sacramento Region National Association of Regional Councils September 12, 2008 Matt Carpenter
2 Sacramento Area Council of Governments 6 counties 22 cities 2.2 million people
3 Key Integrated Land Use, Transportation & Air Quality Efforts Metropolitan Transportation Plan (MTP) adopted in 2002 disappointing performance Blueprint growth strategy adopted 2004 New MTP adopted 2008 better performance Rural-Urban Connections Strategy launched in 2008
4 How to Best Manage Growth?
5 Seven principles of smart growth
6 Base Case Urban Footprint 2050
7 Preferred Scenario Urban Footprint 2050
8 Less Urban Land
9 Less Farmland Conversion
10 MTP 2035: Next Step in Blueprint Hurley Way and Fulton Avenue, Sacramento County A Corridor at the Start of the MTP Planning Process Hurley & Fulton, Sacramento County
11 MTP 2035: Next Step in Blueprint Future Potential of the Corridor Hurley & Fulton, Sacramento County
12 MTP 2035: Shorter Trips to Serve Future Land Uses budget % increase is greatest for bike/pedestrian and Blueprint supportive programs (AQ, community design, etc.) increased $ support for road maintenance & transit operations
13 MTP 2035: Cost- Effective Solutions with Good Performance Benefit Even with Financial Constraints & Trade-Offs Most vehicle travel measures per household improve from today eg) Congested Vehicle Miles of Travel per household is significantly lower than 2002 MTP
14 Cost-Effective Solutions with Good Performance Benefit
15 Quality Transit For More New Transit Options 62% of local bus routes with 30min or better service (vs. 8% in 2005) 58% of Environmental Justice households living within ¼ of a 15min transit line (vs. 21% in 2005)
16 Quality Transit For More
17 Limited Road Expansions complete arterial grids for local trips and strategic freeway improvements for longer distance travel focus on cost-effective operational improvements (eg. ITS) and fixing critical bottlenecks (eg. interchanges)
18 Connecting Climate Change to Land Use & Transportation Land Use & Transportation MTP Strategies & Good Performance Measures EIR Mitigation Measures Air Quality Transportation Control Measures Greenhouse Gas Emissions
19 California Climate Change Requirements AB GHG levels by 2020 Executive Order 80% reduction by 2050 California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) plans and projects required to assess GHG impacts (Attorney General actively enforcing)
20 Transportation & Land Use Sector Produces Vehicle Miles Traveled Vehicle Miles Traveled (VMT) is an important, but not the only, component of Greenhouse Gas emissions Vehicle Types and Fuel Technologies are the other two components
21 10% per household CO2 reduction by 2035
22 CEQA GHG Mitigation Measures for the MTP 2035 Condition funds on green construction practices Develop regional climate action plan Create alternative fuel vehicle and infrastructure toolkit Public education program Regional parking policy Program to reduce GHG emissions for school trips Complete Streets policy Rural-Urban Connections strategy
