9.2 Circulation Objectives

vehicular/pedestrian system

The goal for the circulation system on the installation is to establish a sustainable system that promotes aesthetic appeal, environmental preservation, and energy conservation while providing safe and efficient circulation.  The objectives below should be followed to achieve a sustainable circulation system. 

• Provide circulation that meets antiterrorism and security requirements and promotes and enhances public health and safety.

• Provide a system of circulation that includes all forms of vehicular and pedestrian circulation.

• Provide a system that includes hierarchies of vehicular and pedestrian traffic flow.

• Provide a system that encourages alternative means of transportation and reduces vehicular traffic.

• Adapt the circulation system to the natural conditions of the site.

• Improve the existing circulation network for expansion, safety, way finding, and appearance.

• Promote maintenance and repair of existing and proposed circulation systems.

• Incorporate Low Impact Development (LID) principles and techniques into parking, roadways, pedestrian and, bicycle circulation design.

Sustainable Transportation Goal:
The long term goal is to reduce automobile dependency and provide balanced land use and transportation systems by 2027.  The desired state is to enhance quality of life and support rapid deployment, increase viable alternatives to urban sprawl and associated single occupancy vehicles, decrease on and off post travel time, and reduce air emissions.
