4 Economic Opportunity Summary Project serves high ADT and very high truck volumes. It is along the major route seving the Rickenbacker area. The total existing jobs, however, are in the mid range, substantially less than projects in the category that serve more dense employment areas. Total Traffic Signal Infrastructure Replacement, Maintenance Activity The project is at three locations with high ADTs and truck volumes are moderate. The three project locations total significantly higher existing employment areas compared to other projects in the category. 3 ncrete Bus Pad Upgrades, Maintenance Activity The project is along routes with high ADT, although the improvements are limited to spot locations on the curb lane at bus stops, so the majortiy of the roadway the ADT is on is not afected. Project serves the high employment downtown columbus area. 3 Sunbury Road from unty Line Rd to SR-, Resurfacing Project serves high ADT but low truck volumes. The total existing jobs, however, are in the mid range, substantially less than projects in the category that serve more dense employment areas. Project serves moderate ADT and lower truck volumes. The total existing jobs in the area is third highest in the category. It is in a somewhat distressed area of the region. Redevelopment efforts would be strengthened with the new infrastructure this project would provide. 39 Fishinger Road from Riverside Dr to ' W of Mountview Blvd, Reconstruction Project serves moderate ADT and low truck volumes. The total existing jobs in the area is lower third for the category. Project serves lower ADT and low truck volumes. The total existing jobs in the area is in the mid range in the category.

6 Health, Safety, and Welfare Summary 7 This project will significantly improve facility conditions. The project is also tied for highest in both crash numbers and environmental justice benefits. Bus pads will also help maintain the system life. Total The project has high crash numbers for the System Preservation category. It also has high environmental justice numbers among the projects, but the facility condition is in about the middle. The sponsor is also installing bus pads to help maintain the system life. Additionally, the project area is targeted as part of the City of lumbus' Celebrate One program. 39 Fishinger Road from Riverside Dr to ' W of Mountview Blvd, Reconstruction The facility condition is in significant need of improvement, however, both the crash numbers and the environmental justice statistics are lower than the category's average. The bridge needs significant improvements to its condition. The sponsor also strengthened the proposed system life by opting for a more extensive fix expected to last 5-75 years instead of temporary repairs. The project area is tied for highest in terms of environmental justice benefits. 3 ncrete Bus Pad Upgrades, Maintenance Activity This project will maximize the life of the downtown roadway. Crashes involving bike/ped are high and the project will help prevent crashes involving bicyclists and motorcyclists that involve "bus knuckles," deep grooves that occur in pavement where buses frequently stop. 3 Traffic Signal Infrastructure Replacement, Maintenance Activity This project replaces signal equipment rather than a road or bridge. The condition will be significantly improved as the equipment is approximately 5 years old. Replacement will extend the service life by 3 years. The crash numbers are moderate. 3 Sunbury Road from unty Line Rd to SR-, Resurfacing The facility condition is in need of improvement. However, this project's crash numbers is around average for the System Preservation Category and the environmental justice statistics are lower than the category's average. Though the pavement is already past its useful life, this project's facility condition has the least potential improvement and crash numbers are below average for the System Preservation category. The environmental justice statistics are lower than the category's average. However, the sponsore noted that the project will reduce noise pollution. Facility condition and crash numbers are both lower than average, as are the environmental justice statistics. However, the project is predicted to have a 5-year service life. 3 Sunbury Rd from Red Bank Rd to Galena, Resurfacing The project's improvement to facility condition is on the low side within the category, though crash numbers are in the middle. The environmental justice statistics are lower than the category's average Monday, October 29, 28 Page 5 of

8 Sustainable Neighborhoods Summary 7 3 ncrete Bus Pad Upgrades, Maintenance Activity This project area has the highest origin/destination density in the category by far. COTA's Bus Stop Design Guide recommends bus pads at high-volume stops; they improve transit riders experience by keeping the bus level, making it easier to board and disembark. Bicyclists will benefit from improved pavement conditions. Total Traffic Signal Infrastructure Replacement, Maintenance Activity This project has one of the highest origin/destination densities. Two of the three intersections are on compact corridors highlighted by MORPC's Active Transportation Plan. Signal visibility will improve for all users. As part of the project, all intersections will be upgraded to ADA standards. No bike facilities will be added as part of the project, though Fourth Street and Long Street have existing bike lanes. Bus stops are located at each of the three intersections - signal improvements will help ensure safe crossing for pedestrians. The project area's origin/destination density is lower than the median of the category. No facilities for bicyclists and/or pedestrians currently exist, but the replacement bridges will be designed to accommodate future facilities beyond the scope of this project. It is on a transit line and will provide access to stops. The project area's origin/destination density is slightly lower than the median of the category. Sidewalks, sharrows and signage exist on the bridge currently; one side's sidewalks will be upgraded to a multi-use path as part of the project. Though no COTA lines cross the bridge, the new facilities will improve access to the stops at the intersection of Agler Road and Sunbury Road. The project area's origin/destination density is slightly higher than the median. The corridor currently has sharrows and will upgrade to a multi-use path as part of the project. The multi-use path will connect to Cleveland Avenue's multi-use path to the east, contributing to another (rare) east-west bicycle connection. Sidewalk currently exists along the corridor. All transit stops will be made ADA accessible and the reconstruction will benefit COTA lines # and #3. The project may result in three displacements, although there is a possibility that they may be avoided. No other project in the System Preservation category expects to have any displacements. 39 Fishinger Road from Riverside Dr to ' W of Mountview Blvd, Reconstruction The project area's origin/destination density is higher than the median of the category. Existing sidewalks will be retained with new sidewalk linking existing gaps. "Bikes May Use Full Lane" signs will be a part of this project, but there are no dedicated bicycle facilities. The sponsor anticipates that the improvements will return a residential feel to the area. There is no transit along the corridor. The project area's origin/destination density is around the median of the category. Sidewalks exist on the corridor (though a current gap between Hamilton and Burlington will remain) and this project will add either sharrows or bike lanes. As part of the project, the sponsor will ensure all intersections and transit stops are ADA accessible and install six bus pads; in addition, the reconstruction will benefit COTA lines # and # Monday, October 29, 28 Page of 8

9 Sustainable Neighborhoods Summary 3 Sunbury Rd from Red Bank Rd to Galena, Resurfacing The project area's origin/destination density is one of the lowest in the category. Paved shoulders (at least '-wide) will be added during construction, providing a facility for bicyclists and pedestrians where none currently exists. The corridor is part of bike routes for USBR 5-Alt, Delaware unty Trails and Genoa Township's local trail system. It also links to the Ohio-to-Erie Trail. There is no transit along the corridor. Total The project area's origin/destination density is one of the lowest in the category. A multi-use path already exists along the corridor. Bike lanes will be added during construction, in addition to crosswalk markings and pedestrian signs. There is no transit along the corridor. 3 Sunbury Road from unty Line Rd to SR-, Resurfacing The project area's origin/destination density is lower than the median in the category, but nearby regional facilities, such as Hoover Reservoir and Inniswood Metro Park, will benefit from this resurfacing. The majority of project (northern side) has existing sidewalks, which will be upgraded to ADA standards if they are not currently. The sponsor may add pedestrian facilities if feasible. The project area has no bicycle facilites (existing or proposed) or transit resources Monday, October 29, 28 Page 7 of 8
