OBJECTIVE The objective of the Future Conditions analysis was to portray a “snapshot” of typical daily traffic conditions on the Study Area transportation network for the year 2030. It is assumed that only those Boone County projects included in the current 2005-2010 Six-Year Highway Plan (“Six Year Plan”) will be constructed by the year 2030. The future year roadway system, referred to as the year 2030 Existing Plus Committed (“E+C”) network, was used in the development of future year traffic projections and resulting levels of service. From this snapshot, future highway system deficiencies were identified.

COMMITTED IMPROVEMENTS

Major transportation improvement projects for Boone County that are contained in the current Six Year Plan are presented in Exhibit 3-1. A listing and brief description of each project can be found in Chapter 7, Financial Assessment. It should be pointed out that the Six Year Plan only lists the phase or phases of each project for which funding is anticipated, through Fiscal Year 2010 (which runs from July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010); for a number of projects, completion – including final construction – will occur after 2010. As stated previously, it is assumed that all Boone County projects contained in the current Six Year Plan will be constructed by 2030.

The Six Year Plan groups projects according to anticipated State and Federal fund categories. With regard to Federally-funded projects, the current Plan is fiscally balanced in that the total project costs do not exceed the anticipated Federal funds. This assumes that Congress, at a minimum, will fund the most conservative of the Federal

reauthorization bills presently being considered.

On the other hand, State-funded (“SP”) projects in the Plan do not match expected State fund revenues for FY 2005-2010. While anticipated State fund revenues total $460 million for the six-year period, SP projects in the Plan total nearly $2 billion, which means that the SP portion of the Plan is $1.5 billion out of balance. Implications are that many of the projects will take considerably longer to be completed than is shown in the published Plan, given the anticipated continuing shortage of State fund revenues.

In Boone County, a cooperative process for identifying long-range transportation needs occurs between local communities in Boone County and the Ohio-Kentucky-Indiana (“OKI”) Regional Council of Governments, which serves as the metropolitan planning organization (“MPO”) for the Greater Cincinnati Region. OKI, as the MPO, is responsible for planning for transportation projects that will use federal funding. Boone County recommended improvement projects contained in OKI’s three-year Transportation Improvement Program (“TIP”) also are included in the State Six Year Plan. In addition, OKI maintains a long range, year 2030 Regional Transportation Plan that includes projects identified in each county’s transportation plan. This Regional Long Range Plan is reviewed and updated every three years (last update, 2004) to incorporate changes or additions identified in local and regional planning studies. Boone County recommendations, such as proposed improvements generated by this Boone County Transportation Plan ultimately will be submitted for adoption into the OKI Regional Long Range Plan.

3-3 Chapter 3 Future Conditions

The Statewide Transportation Plan (“STP”) is Kentucky’s multi-modal, long-range plan produced by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet, of which the Six Year Plan serves as the short-range component. The STP also identifies corridor-level needs and improvements on a statewide basis for the 7-to-20-year time frame. By reference, the STP includes long-range projects for Boone County, which are contained in OKI’s 2030 Regional Transportation Plan (“RTP”). However, for the purposes of developing this 2030 Boone County Transportation Plan, previously identified Boone County RTP projects are not included in the 2030 E+C network. Thus, the year 2030 analysis for the “No Build” scenario assumes that only those major projects contained in the Six Year Plan will be built by 2030.

OKI/MVRPC REGIONAL TRAVEL DEMAND MODEL The consolidated travel demand model for OKI and the Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission (MVRPC) was used in preparing year 2030 traffic forecasts. This model was created during the North South Transportation Initiative by merging the individual OKI and MVRPC regional models into a “supermodel” consisting of a regional transportation network spanning eleven counties (Hamilton, Clermont, Warren, Butler, Montgomery, Greene and Miami counties in Ohio, as well as Boone, Kenton and Campbell in Kentucky, and Dearborn in Indiana). In addition to the regional consolidation, the current version of the model includes several model enhancements, such as time-of-day trip distribution, logsum trip distribution impedances, updated truck trip tables and regionally-estimated mode choice models.

As part of this transportation plan study, the highway network was updated for Boone County to include significant local roads that

were not in the adopted 2030 model. Relevant information about these roads (number of lanes, speed, capacity, etc.) was sent to OKI and the additional roads were inserted into the network. In addition, a re-evaluation, and significant modification, of the land use based model input (socioeconomic data), was used to better integrate transportation and land use planning in the Boone County portion of the model.

SOCIOECONOMIC DATA

The OKI/MVRPC Regional Travel Demand Model uses population and employment as its primary predictors in the development of traffic projections. Geographically, the model is subdivided into traffic analysis zones, or TAZ’s, and the socioeconomic data (including population and employment) are summarized for each TAZ. Trip production/attraction and travel demand assignment to transportation facilities is then based on the geographic distribution and make-up of the population and employment data.

Traffic analysis zone boundaries typically follow U.S. Census boundaries and TAZ’s are an aggregation of several Census blocks. This makes the process of maintaining and updating socioeconomic data much easier. Within the Boone County portion of the model, there are a total of 87 TAZ’s. A map of the TAZ’s is presented in Exhibit 3-2.

3-5 Chapter 3 Future Conditions

The 2030 regional travel model contains population and employment projections that were developed by OKI, with input from Boone County. Population projections were originally allocated among the 87 TAZ’s from a total of 204,003; this control total was developed by the Kentucky State Data Center. In the fall of 2004, the State Data Center adjusted the Boone County population projection to 188,652 and OKI then re-allocated the new total to the 87 TAZ’s. It is critical that the Boone County infrastructure be sufficient by the year 2030 to support the population growth (year 2000 population, according to the U.S. Census, was 85,448).

For the Boone County Transportation Study, new population and employment projections, by TAZ, were developed based on the recently updated land use map in the Comprehensive Plan. For each land use type, typical development densities were established and, using a geographic information system (GIS), acreages for the varying land use types were computed. Acreages were multiplied by typical densities by land use category (based on national studies and Boone County Planning Commission local adjustment) to produce new estimates of population (households per acre based on residential type, i.e., single family, multi-family and varying planned development densities) and employment (jobs per acre based on employment category) for the year 2030. Within the established range of typical densities, population densities for individual zones were adjusted as necessary to reflect the proposed land use plan residential characteristics in each TAZ. The overall county population control total of 188,652 for the year 2030 was maintained, while the Boone County Land Use Plan based employment total was used. The OKI Regional Travel Demand Model then used this socioeconomic data to derive trip characteristics and travel assignments.

The projected socioeconomic data, based on the 2030 Boone County Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map, are listed by TAZ in Exhibit 3-3. Compared to the year 2000, population is expected to increase by 121 percent from 85,448 to 188,652 by 2030. Employment is predicted to increase from 72,957 jobs in 2000 to 120,900 jobs in 2030, an increase of 66 percent. The County must plan for providing adequate infrastructure and services to accommodate this significant growth.

A map illustrating the population change by TAZ from 2000 to 2030 is shown in Exhibit 3-4. In general, population growth will be greatest along the central north-south “spine” of the county, generally between I-71/I-75 and US 42-KY 237. A similar map depicting areas of anticipated employment growth is presented in Exhibit 3-5. Employment growth will be greatest in these areas:

• Surrounding the Greater Cincinnati /Northern Kentucky International Airport

• In the US 25 Dixie Highway corridor, between I-71/I-75 and the Kenton County line, from KY 842 Weaver Road to Walton

• In western Boone County, south of Petersburg and south of Rabbit Hash.

Growth near the airport is anticipated to be as a result of the planned airport expansion, related services, and industries that will benefit from having a close proximity to the airport. The County is planning to accommodate additional industrial growth in the Dixie Highway Corridor, which is reflected in localized growth projections. Employment growth in western Boone County will be attributable to anticipated increased quarrying activities. Though the large TAZ size implies that the growth will occur over a large area, the actual growth will be confined primarily to individual quarry sites.

3-9 Chapter 3 Future Conditions

Year 2030 population and employment projections derived from the Comprehensive Plan were compared to the population and employment data for Boone County that are in the currently adopted year 2030 OKI regional travel demand model. The comparisons are summarized:

Existing(2000)

2030 AdoptedOKI Model

2030 Comprehensive

PlanPopulation 85,448 204,003 188,652Employment 72,957 108,049 120,900

The current, adopted version of the 2030 OKI model contains the previously established 204,003 population projection, while the revised model scenario, which reflects the Comprehensive Plan, contains the more recent, approved 188,652 population estimate. Also, the Comprehensive Plan-based version of the model, from which the 2030 traffic projections were made, includes a higher employment projection.

However, the most significant difference between the current OKI model input for population and employment is the allocation of this data to the TAZ’s. The current allocation is based on previous coordination with the county completed prior to the extensive comprehensive planning efforts the County has undertaken in recent years (and expected to culminate this year in the 2030 Comprehensive Plan update). In comparing the OKI allocation with the allocation based on the current Boone County land use plan, it was found that the Comprehensive Plan-based version concentrates the growth in more localized areas, specifically along a north-south spine in the center of the county and along the Dixie Highway corridor between Walton and Florence. Therefore, using the Comprehensive Plan-based allocation allows the consideration of transportation needs and improvement plans to be better linked with the envisioned land use growth and expected demographic changes in Boone County.

YEAR 2030 TRAFFIC FORECASTS AND LEVELS OF SERVICE Using the population and employment data developed from the Boone County Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map, the OKI regional travel demand model was run to produce year 2030 traffic projections. The model run was performed using the 2030 E+C roadway network, which includes those projects listed in the 2005-2010 Six-Year Highway Plan. A map of projected year 2030 daily traffic volumes and levels of service is shown in Exhibit 3-6. A summary table of the LOS analysis for interstate highways in Boone County is presented in Exhibit 3-7. Similarly, projected daily traffic volumes and LOS for arterial streets and two-lane highways are summarized in Exhibit 3-8 and Exhibit 3-9, respectively.

As shown, a number of roads in Boone County are projected to be either over capacity or near capacity by 2030. These include:

• Beaver Road (KY 1292) from US 42 to Walton

• Bullittsville Road • Burlington Pike (KY 18) from I-75 to KY

237; west of Burlington • Dixie Highway (US 25) from Richwood

Road to Walton • Frogtown Road (KY 3060) from US 42 to

US 25 • KY 338 Idlewild Road • Mineola Pike • North Bend Road (KY 237) from KY 18

to I-275 • Petersburg Road (KY 20) from KY 212

west to Idlewild Road • Richwood Road (KY 338) from Hicks

Pike to US 25 • US 42 from Gallatin County line to I-75

in Florence (except new section) • Walton-Verona Road (KY 14-16) from

Verona through Walton)

3-16 Chapter 3 Future Conditions

Noteworthy are KY 18 from I-71/I-75 to KY 237, US 42 from I-71/I-75 to and south of Union to south of Hicks Pike, and the section of US 25 Dixie Highway from KY 338 Richwood Road to Walton, all are projected to be beyond capacity by 2030. Additionally, the four-lane divided section of KY 237 North Bend Road from KY 18 to I-275 will be at capacity by 2030. These all are major traffic-carrying facilities that will require additional capacity.

HIGHWAY DEFICIENCIES AND NEEDS

From the Level of Service analysis, three major conclusions can be drawn:

1. There is insufficient transportation infrastructure to facilitate the north-south movement of people and goods through the central portion of Boone County. The roadway system ultimately feeds all of the traffic into I-71/I-75, which serves both traffic traveling through Boone County and local trips within the county.

2. The US 25 Dixie Highway Corridor is not sufficient to serve the large amount of traffic, particularly truck traffic, expected to occur from increased, planned industrial development in this section of the county.

3. Highways such as KY 18 Burlington Pike, US 42, KY 536 Mt. Zion Road, and KY 338 Richwood Road provide connectivity from largely populated residential areas to I-71/I-75. As residential development increases, particularly in the south central and southern portions of the county, these roads and others will be burdened by growing traffic. There is not a well-established network of east-west parallel collector roads that provide a high level of accessibility between residential areas and the I-71/I-75 corridor. Other roads such as KY 20 Petersburg Road, KY 3060 Frogtown Road, KY 1292 Beaver Road,

and KY 14-KY 16 Walton-Verona Road will bear the burden of additional traffic resulting from residential growth.
