3 2001 Husky Football Transportation Management Plan Summary Background The Seattle City Council Resolution 27435, relative to the University of Washington Stadium Expansion Parking Plan and Transportation Management Program (TMP), requires the University and City of Seattle to collect data during each football season. The data is used to monitor the performance of the TMP. The 1986 data collection is a baseline for comparing impacts after the stadium expansion in This document summarizes the data collection for the 2001 season, and compares current figures to the figures collected during the past fifteen years. 2
4 University of Washington Transportation Office Introduction The University of Washington hosted six football games at Husky Stadium during the 2001 season. The game dates and times were as follows: Date Kickoff Time Opponent Game Attendance September 8th 12:30 p.m. Michigan 74,080 September 22nd 12:30 p.m. Idaho (Band Day) 70,145 October 6th 12:30 p.m. USC 72,946 October 20th 12:30 p.m. Arizona 71,108 November 3rd 12:30 p.m. Stanford 72,090 November 17th 12:30 p.m. WSU 74,442 During the 2001 season, the transportation management program (TMP) was executed to provide transportation options and to discourage guests from driving alone. Alternative modes of transportation were fostered and encouraged, including: free bus services from several Park & Ride lots in the region free bus service on selected in-city routes ( Husky Special Service ) discounted carpool parking charter bus parking bicycling boat moorage services The purpose of this document is to monitor the effectiveness of the TMP during the 2001 season. The indicators that are used for monitoring are modal split, average occupancy of each transportation mode, number of parking violations in Special Events Restricted Parking Zone, and neighborhood parking impacts. This report consists of three main sections. First, it explains the Transportation Management Program (TMP). Secondly, it details the methodology used to collect the data related to performance indicators. Lastly, it discusses modal split in 2001 and in previous years. 3
5 2001 Husky Football Transportation Management Plan Summary Executive Summary After fifteen years of operation, the Husky Stadium Expansion Parking Plan and Transportation Management Program continue to fulfill its primary goal of "accommodating a sellout crowd of 72,200 with less reliance on parking in the residential areas near campus." Key findings of this report are presented below: The average attendance in 2001 was 72,468. The average attendance in 1986 was 59,432 and 71,638 in The average vehicle occupancy rate for vehicles parked on campus during games was 2.46 persons per auto. On average, 28,661 people o r 39.5 percent of the game attendance in 2001 arrived by automobile. In 1986, the average number of people arriving by automobile and parking on campus or at Safeco was 27,424 people or 46 percent. In 2000, the average vehicle occupancy rate for autos was 2.32 and an average of 27,099 people or 37.7 percent of the game attendance arrived by automobile and parked on campus. Average occupancy for boats has increased to 12.5 people per boat. On average, approximately 3,539 people or 4.8 percent of the total game attendance in 2001 arrived by boat for each game. In 1986, the average number of people arriving by boat was 2,817 people or 4.7 percent. In 2000, the figures were 3,661 people or 5.1, with an 11.9 people per boat average occupancy. Transit ridership increased in An average of 15,598 people arrived by bus each game. Overall, 21.5 percent of the game attendance rode transit to the games in 2001 as compared to 5,650 people or 9.5 percent in During the 2000 season, 15,572 people or 22.1 percent of the game attendance used transit. During the 2001 season, an average of 49,760 people per game, or 68.7 percent of the average game attendance parked on campus, came by boat, arrived by transit, or arrived by charter bus. The remaining 22,710 people, or 31.3 percent, were either dropped -off, walked, rode a bicycle, drove a motorcycle/moped, or drove and parked in the University District or outlying neighborhoods. In 1986, an average of 66 percent of the people in game attendance parked on-campus came by boat, by transit, or by charter bus. In 2000, there were 48,068 people or 67 percent arriving by these modes. The City of Seattle Transportation Department identified 220 parking violations in the Special Event Restricted Parking Zone in 2001 compared to 91 violations reported in 1986, 209 violations in 1999, and 115 violations in An increase in the number of bikes parked around the stadium was noted. An average of 272 bikes were counted around the stadium. An increase from 2000 count of 234, or 16 percent. 4
6 University of Washington Transportation Office TMP Elements The Transportation Management Plan for Husky football games was first implemented in 1987 to mitigate the impacts of traffic on the surrounding community. Due to the nature of large-attendance events such as football games, high volumes of people travel to specific location over a short period, and most leave at the same time (at the conclusion of the event). The TMP is in place to reduce the volume of vehicles in the area before and after football games. Transit Fare Program One of the goals of the transportation program is to encourage football game attendees to take public transportation to the stadium. All ticket-holders may ride King County Metro buses free to the stadium on added Park & Ride service buses and the on five special service routes in addition to all regular Metro routes and the Sound Transit Express 550. Park and Ride Service King County Metro provides special game-day bus service from eight Park & Ride lots in the region to Husky Stadium (see Figure 1). Fans are able to park free at the Park & Ride lots, and ride the bus to Husky Stadium free. Buses begin boarding at the lots two hours before the kickoff, and leave every 20 minutes. Following the games, bus riders board the buses according to their destination to return to the designated Park & Ride lots, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 2: Boarding Locations Figure1: Park and Ride Lot Locations 5
7 2001 Husky Football Transportation Management Plan Summary Husky Special King County Metro adds four special bus routes from downtown Seattle and Ballard to Husky Stadium during each home game. The service starts one hour and forty minutes before each kickoff. The routes are shown in Figures 3 through 6. Figure 3: Downtown Service Figure 4: Downtown Service Figure 5: Ballard Service Figure 6: Downtown Service King County Metro also adds special service on Route 75 between Lake City and Husky Stadium. One trip leaves Lake City 65 minutes before kickoff during each home game. Figure 7 shows the route for the service. Figure 7: Lake City & Sand Point Service 6
8 University of Washington Transportation Office Marketing: Transportation Guide and Website Each year a Husky Football Transportation Guide, which provides transportation-related information, is produced for and distributed to ticket holders. In 2001, the Transportation Office printed 21,500 brochures and mailed them to all season ticket holders and individuals who request the information. The guide provides details about the TMP elements, information about parking and post-game traffic routing, and contact information. People who purchased their tickets on -line received a link to the electronic version of the guide. The information is also made available on-line at the U-PASS web site (hosted by the University of Washington Carpooling Incentives and Parking Pricing The TMP uses a pricing system to provide financial incentives for carpooling. During the 2001 season, parking on campus cost $7.00 for vehicles with three or more persons, $10.00 for vehicles with less than three persons, $20.00 for motor homes, and $20.00 for buses. The only increase in parking pricing was for motor homes an increase of $3.00 more than In previous years, carpool parking permits were available for groups or two or more persons. This change, requiring three rather than two people for a carpool permit has had little effect on average vehicle occupancy, as discussed later in this report. Marketing information was also used also encourage carpooling. Messages such as When you share the ride you ll save time and money and have a lot more fun than going alone were incorporated into the transportation guide. Restricted Parking Zone Another important element of the TMP is the Special Event Parking Zone, which limits game-day parking in Montlake community to its residents. Citations are given when non - residents park in the specified zones. Bicycling New for this year, the University of Washington Transportation Office added an element to our program by repositioning bicycle racks to provide additional lock-up space for cyclists nearby stadium entrances. 7
9 2001 Husky Football Transportation Management Plan Summary Data Collection Methodology and Summary Vehicle trips and passengers are counted or estimated for each transportation mode (charter bus, public bus, boat, cars, and motor homes). This count does not include bicyclists, pedestrians, or people dropped off. Charter Buses Charter buses were surveyed at each game by Parking Services. A parking attendant recorded the number of buses and passengers as the parking fees were paid. Table 1 shows the number of charter buses and passengers arriving by charter bus for each game. Table 1: 2001 Husky Football Travel to Campus via Charter Buses Game Date Opponent Number of Buses Number of Passengers September 8th Michigan 43 1,682 September 22nd Idaho (Band Day)* 109 3,785 October 6th USC 41 1,382 October 20th Arizona 33 1,145 November 3rd Stanford 36 1,279 November 17th WSU 49 1,724 Season Average 52 1,833 * The 63 band day buses held approximately 2,700 people. Every year the Huskies host a Band Day when marching bands from area high schools travel via charter buses to Husky stadium to perform. The Idaho game on September 22 was Band Day, and the numbers shown include the Band Day participants. Transit King County Metro counts the number of transit trips and passengers for each Husky game, for both the Park & Ride Service and for Husky Special Service runs. All transit trips are estimated to be 21.6% of the total game attendance.

10 University of Washington Transportation Office Boats The Intercollegiate Athletics Department (ICA) counts the number of boats at each game and provides an estimate of the number of passengers based on boat size. Specific counts were taken for those arriving by charter boat, boats moored at University piers and buoys near the Waterfront Activities Center, and boats anchored offshore or parked at the crew house. Table 3 provides information for each game, and summarizes the season averages. Not included in this year s number is one seaplane.

Vehicles Parking Services records the number of cars parked in each campus lot per game. In addition, an Average Vehicle Occupancy (AVO) Survey is conducted each fall quarter, this year on October 6, 2001, in order to estimate the AVO and person trips by cars and motor homes. This year s survey was conducted from 7:00am until the game kick off at 12:30pm. Surveyors recorded the number of people in each car as they entered the University Washington parking facilities. The campus was divided into six sections: East Campus North, East Campus South, Main Campus, South Campus, Central Campus and West Campus. AVO rates were then calculated for each section of campus and applied to the total number of cars parked in each campus sector, as surveyed by Parking Services. The result is a 2001 estimate of the total number of people who arrived by auto and parked on campus for each game. The data are provided in Table 4. 9

12 University of Washington Transportation Office Bicycles The UW Transportation Office counted bicycles parked at or around Husky Stadium (Figure 8) this year on two occasions September 8 and September 22. There were 258 counted on September 8 and 285 counted on September 22. This averages to 272 bicycles. This compares to a one-day count of 234 bicycles in Figure 8 Bicycles locked up on the West Plaza. The 2000 Husky TMP Summary indicated a need for better event bicycle parking and bicycle parking information distribution. The UW Transportation Office adapted and enhanced the information provided in the 2001 Husky Game Guide to reflect the needs of bicyclists; a map was modified to show bike parking locations. The Transportation Office also added bike racks to supplement the existing racks at the stadium. Throughout the course of the season, a total of seven racks, or 105 bike capacity was added near the North and NW Plaza entrances to encourage bicycling and discourage illegal lock-ups (Figure 9). Figure 9 Bikes near Hec Ed overpass locked to railings. 11
13 2001 Husky Football Transportation Management Plan Summary There were many areas that still had many improperly locked bicycles. There were also areas swelled to capacity. For next year, there are plans to bring in additional racks to E-9 also. Figure 10 Bikes locked to trees. Though bicycles were counted on Main Campus and around the Medical Center/Health Sciences, most were concentrated around Hec Ed, the Burke Gilman Trail, and Husky Stadium. The results for the bike counts in these areas follows. Burke Gilman Trail This is one of the main bicycle routes passing by the UW. Some bicycles were found locked to rails, trees, and poles along the trail, as shown in Figure 10. In this area, there is an abundant bike parking capacity of 232. However, there were only 46 bikes parked at this location. Most bicycles were counted at the Burke Gilman Trail and Hec Ed Overpass; a total of nearly 100 bikes were observed. East of Montlake Boulevard (Stadium Area) Most of the bicycles counted were parked in this area 118 were tallied here. Initially, there was not sufficient capacity of bicycle parking for the game, as bicycle racks are placed here according to normal (non-event-related) demand. The Transportation Office added capacity to this area as mentioned previously. 12
14 University of Washington Transportation Office Modal Split Figure 11 provides the average mode split of the 1986 (pre -stadium expansion), and 2001 seasons Season (Pre-Expansion) 2001 Season Other modes 34% Parking on campus 44% Other modes 30% Parking on campus 40% Charter bus 5% Transit 10% Boats 5% Parking at Safeco 2% Charter bus 3% Transit 22% Boats 5% Figure 11: Average Mode Split As demonstrated in the Figure 11, mode choice has shifted. Transit bus use has increased substantially, and a smaller share of game attendees arrives at Husky Stadium by car. 13
15 2001 Husky Football Transportation Management Plan Summary Neighborhood Parking Impacts Figure 12: Neighborhood Parking Impact Areas Figure 12 shows the neighborhood parking impact areas; the boundary is defined in City Council Resolution The University arranges for the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) to take an aerial photograph at one football game each season. The analysis of the aerial photo taken September 8, 2001 reveals no apparent increased parking impact in the restricted parking zone (RPZ) neighborhoods. The University did not receive any complaints about parking from residents in the neighborhood impact zones in In addition, the UW observed that the number of people arriving to games via total uncounted modes was less in 2001 than the average of the years and the 2000 season. The uncounted modes are those other than oncampus parking, boats, transit, and charter bus services, and could include individuals parking in neighborhood parking zones. Thus, all indications signify that the goal to accommodate a sell-out crowd with less reliance on parking in the residential areas near campus has been achieved. 14
16 University of Washington Transportation Office Special Events Restricted Parking Zone Seattle Transportation (SEATRAN) provides information regarding Special Events Restricted Parking Zone (RPZ) violations in the Montlake Community. SEATRAN staff conducts a survey each year of illegally parked vehicles in the RPZ. This year it occurred during the afternoon of November 3, 2001 (Miami game). Attendance for the game was 72,090 people. A total of 220 violations were counted during the game, up considerably from 115 recorded in Note: violations and citations are not the same things. The violations count is of vehicles parked in a location without proper permits, and thus, these vehicles are worthy of a citation. A citation is the actual issued ticket. For this report, no information was provided by the Seattle Police Department about the number of citations issued. Results of the SEATRANS RPZ violation count are presented in Figure 13, with the exception of 1993 when SEATRAN was unable to conduct the survey. Figure 13: Number of Restricted Parking Zone Violations per game, according to year 250 Number of RPZ Violations Data Not Available Year 15
17 2001 Husky Football Transportation Management Plan Summary Conclusion The success of the TMP in 2001 is demonstrated in the mode split data, and in the number of violations counted in the Restricted Parking Zone. The Husky Stadium Expansion Parking Plan and Transportation Management Program continue to be successful. Table 5 summaries travel to each game during the 2001 season according to mode.
