TRANSCRIPT
Summary of Preliminary Phase 1 Assumptions, Findings, and RecommendationsEisenhower East Small Area Plan 2019 Update March 27, 2019
• Mixed-Use, Transit Oriented Development
- Area is served by two Metro Stations and Amtrak/VRE
- Trips to and from destinations can easily be made by non-auto means
• Multimodal Transportation Improvements Planned by City
- Complete Streets
- Vision Zero
- Transportation Master Plan
- Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan
- Smart Mobility
Mode split (also called mode share) is the
percentage of travelers using a particular type (or
mode) of transportation when traveling

1) Increase in density and changes in uses will have a manageable impact on the
surrounding transportation network, assuming recommendations and mitigation measures
are implemented (Preliminary Mitigations are shown on accompanying board)
2) Phase 2 of analysis will further refine and verify preliminary mitigations
Findings from Preliminary Phase 1 Analysis
1) Complete Grid of Streets
2) Standardization of Signals
3) Study Feasibility of Implementing Increased Bus Service
4) Provide Parking Ratios to Encourage Non-Auto Use
5) Implement Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plans
6) Improved Bicycle Infrastructure
7) Implement Transportation Technologies
Recommendations from Preliminary Phase 1 Analysis
• Mode Splits Assumed in Preliminary Phase 1 Study
- Based data collected at comparable sites in Northern Virginia (including Eisenhower East) and Washington
DC, Census data, and WMATA Ridership Survey
Factors Considered in Preliminary Phase 1 Analysis
• Changes in Transportation since 2003 Plan was Approved
- Parking Standards for New Developments
- Capital Bikeshare
- Transportation Network Companies (TNCs)
Uber, Lyft, Via, etc.
- Car-Sharing
Zipcar, Maven, Car2Go, Free2Move, etc.
- Dockless Mobility
Lime, Lyft, Jump, Bird, Bolt, etc.

No Mitigation Required
*Preliminary mitigations from the Phase 1 analysis are
system-wide improvements that are needed to maintain levels
of service similar to 2003 plan/development program;
mitigations require verification in Phase 2 of analysis
