EVERETT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN <br />City limits, and most of Sub -Area 6 is outside the existing City limits. The Everett planning area <br />population was significantly greater than 100,000 residents in 2006. <br />The inclusion of "mode of travel" targets for each Subarea in the 1994 Plan was considered to be <br />the most visionary aspect of the Plan. This element has been reinforced and adopted in the 2006 <br />Update of the Transportation Element. <br />The 2006 Update to the Transportation Element of the Everett Comprehensive Plan includes the <br />following elements: <br />• Review of existing conditions to: <br />o update the inventory of transportation infrastructure, <br />o identify the travel demands and levels of service, and <br />o evaluate how targets set in 1994 have been achieved. <br />• Review and update the goal, objectives and policies of the 1994 Plan <br />• Review the subarea "mode of travel" targets established in 1994 for 2012 and set new <br />targets for the horizon year of 2025. <br />• Estimate the travel demands generated by land use growth in the City to the horizon year <br />of 2025. <br />• Determine the transportation capital projects required to accommodate the future travel <br />demands for each mode as: <br />o vehicular facilities, <br />o public transportation facilities, and <br />o non -motorized facilities (bicycle and pedestrian) <br />• Develop planning level project costs for the transportation projects and identify priorities <br />The most important revision in the 2006 Update is considered to be the inclusion of all modes in <br />the financial plan of the Transportation Element, and the addition of specific transportation <br />management techniques under the State Commute Trip Reduction (CTR) laws to achieve the <br />"mode of travel" targets. <br />TRANSPORTATION ELEMENT 2 <br />
