Cross County Connection TMA was formally incorporated in1989 through the efforts of a group of southern New Jerseybusiness leaders, local government officials, andrepresentatives from the New Jersey Department ofTransportation (NJDOT) and New Jersey Transit Corporation

(NJ TRANSIT) to address mobility issues in the region andreduce the number of vehicles on state and local roadways.Today, Cross County Connection is a non-profit organization,which partners with NJDOT, NJ TRANSIT, Federal HighwayAdministration and its members to provide solutions tocomplex transportation problems for counties, municipalities,employers and commuters in our seven-county region.

This Cross County Connection Transportation ManagementAssociation publication is funded by the New Jersey Department ofTransportation and the U.S. Department of Transportation FederalHighway Administration. The Federal Government and the State ofNew Jersey assume no liability for the contents.

Cross County Connection then analyzed the information andranked and prioritized those proposed bicycle facilities thatshould be constructed in the near future, as shown in Chapters3 and 4 of this report (Phase II of this study). An interactivebicycle facilities map showing the results of the inventory willbe created and placed on Cross County Connections websiteat www.transportationchoices.com sometime in 2006.

employees and visitors will be able to bicycle to most areas ofthe County.

Given the limited financial resources that may be available toconstruct this bicycle facility network, a prioritization systemshould be put into place to ensure that those facilities with themost benefit will be built first. Phase II of Cross CountyConnections bicycle facility project does this.

Criterion Two: Proximity to New Jersey TRANSIT BusRoutes

The number of New Jersey TRANSIT routes within a two milebuffer of the bicycle facility was selected as a criterionbecause a bicyclist linking with a bus route has access to amuch larger geographic area for employment. All New JerseyTRANSIT buses have bicycle racks. In addition, the number

of routes is important because a bicyclist can ride along abicycle facility to an intersect point with a New JerseyTRANSIT bus, put the bicycle on the bike rack and ride to theirstop. Upon reaching their stop, the bicyclist can then take thebicycle off of the bus and ride to their destination. Therefore,the number of bus routes would help to determine the usage ofa particular bicycle facility as a commuter route. Table 3shows how the bicycle facilities were scored based on thedistance to bus routes

Table 3Criteria 2: Number of Bus Routes Within Two

Miles

Score Number of Bus Routes Within Two Miles0 0

2 1 to 33 4 to 6

4 7 to 95 10 to 13

6 >13

Criterion Three: Proximity to Business Parks

Bicycle facilities benefit from being within two miles of abusiness park because of increased proximity to employmentopportunities. If a business park is along or in proximity to abicycle facility, then the usage of the bicycle facility as acommuter route would most likely increase. When combinedwith other modes of transport, such as buses that have bicycle

racks, commuters could arrive at their employment sites bycombining different modes of transportation and incorporatethe bicycle facility into the overall transportation network.

The business parks in Atlantic County were identified usingcounty maps, field investigations, and local knowledge andexperience. The bicycle facilities were scored as shown inTable 4.

5 Atlantic City 816 Hammonton 727 Galloway Township 658 Somers Point 579 Northfield City 50

This analysis also examined the overall scores of each bicyclefacility in each municipality. The overall score is comprised ofthe individual scores of all of the existing and proposedfacilities within the municipality thus indicating the volume offacilities in the municipality; the higher the overall score, thegreater the number of facilities in the municipality. As Table 8shows, Pleasantville surpasses all other municipalities with anoverall score of 158 while the next eight municipalities range

from a score of 117 to 50. Eighty-five percent of the reportedbicycle facilities in Atlantic County are proposed.

For the purposes of this analysis, Atlantic County has beendivided into two corridors, Eastern and Western. The EasternCorridor consists of Absecon, Atlantic City, Brigantine, CorbinCity, Egg Harbor Township, Estell Manor, Galloway Township,Linwood City, Longport, Margate, Northfield City, Pleasantville,Port Republic, Somers Point, and Ventnor. The Western

Corridor consists of Buena Borough, Buena Vista Township,Egg Harbor City, Folsom Borough, Hamilton Township,Hammonton, Mullica Township, and Weymouth Township.

The Eastern and Western Corridors both share similarities interms of the attractors. Each of these corridors has NJTRANSIT bus routes, the NJT Atlantic City Rail Line Stations,attractor roads, and multiple schools located within the two

mile buffer of the bicycle facilities. They are also located closeto business parks, which increase their attractiveness ascommuter modes.

SUMMARY

Thirty-three existing and proposed bicycle facilities, out of atotal of 68 facilities, scored above the average of 12.1. Thesefacilities are located in the East and West Corridors of AtlanticCounty. As stated above, the bicycle facilities in thesecorridors were generated in close proximity to existingcommuter attractors. Based on the location and commuter

attractiveness of these facilities, Cross County Connectiondoes not believe that the primary focus is to create BicycleImprovement Areas, as was done in Cross CountyConnections Burlington and Camden Counties BicycleFacilities Report. In that Report, there were a significantnumber of existing facilities. The Bicycle Improvement Areasidentified areas lacking connectivity with public transportationin order to create a comprehensive bicycle network.

Rather, as in Cross County Connections Gloucester CountyBicycle Facility Report, Cross County Connection believes thatfunding the construction of the identified proposed facilities isthe next step. Therefore the need to assist the municipalitiesto obtain funding and complete their proposed facilities is thepriority. Cross County Connection believes that this is the nextstep in making Atlantic County attractive as an alternativecommuting location. After this is complete, then the

municipalities should focus on identifying where gaps in theirexisting bicycle facilities are and how to eliminate them.
