Rails to Resilience: Evaluating New Orleans and Baton Rouge Terminals and Transit Links
| 项目名称： | Rails to Resilience: Evaluating New Orleans and Baton Rouge Terminals and Transit Links |
| 摘要： | This study aims to evaluate the multimodal linkages to and opportunities for proposed terminal sites for a potential future passenger rail connection between Baton Rouge and New Orleans, Louisiana. A broad coalition of stakeholders support the development of this connection, and several feasibility studies and station area plans have been developed in anticipation of possible future funding for implementation. This study will support an improved understanding of the dynamics of likely ridership through the following key activities: (1) a comprehensive evaluation of existing transportation networks connecting proposed rail terminal sites, (2) distribution of a survey aimed at understanding the potential for passenger rail ridership and the needs of likely users, (3) identification of transit priorities and opportunities to maximize connectivity of intercity rail to employment destinations, (4) development of ridership projections and estimates of economic impacts of eventual project implementation of under varying scenarios, and (5) synthesis of recommendations for stakeholders involved in transportation planning within the Baton Rouge-New Orleans super region as pertains to the proposed passenger rail corridor. |
