GIS-based route planning allows continuous evaluation of routes, based on the level of detail of available input data and defined route selection criteria weighting factors.

Key factors that effect planning

Preliminary Route Evaluation Factors

• Establish primary endpoints and portals (stations)

• Define appropriate route selection criteria and importance weighting factors

• Generate route alternatives based on adjustment of importance weighting factors

• Review alignment based on vertical and horizontal gradient requirements

• Estimate locations and lengths of overpass and tunnel structures along route

12

Demand and Economic Development Potential Examined• Demand, ridership and freight volume estimates• Passenger and cargo flows between portals

(stations)• Current infrastructure and modes of transport on

corridor• Induced demand estimate• Project potential future flows• Catchment sizes for communities along corridor

13

Identify the Processes and Steps Necessary to Implement the Project

• Research Federal, State and local regulations

• Prepare a summary of major environmental and land use permits potentially required

• Order of magnitude cost estimate

A project of this scale requires coordination across the public and relevant private sector entities (P3)

14

Feasibility Scope

• Routing analysis

• Land use planning

• Technology evaluation

• Constructability assessment and estimate

• Economic summary

• Community engagement summary
