PREFERRED ALTERNATIVE

The RTC, in cooperation with the Nevada Department of Transportation (NDOT) and City of Sparks, have identified a preferred alternative for the corridor. The (2015) Corridor Study helped develop recommended improvements based on purpose, needs, and priorities. The recommended improvements were then refined into the preferred alternative based on input from the public, understanding planned improvements adjacent to the corridor, land-use development, and traffic volume forecasts based on growth in our community. The recommended improvements were further evaluated on their benefit or impact to several criteria including safety, bicycle/pedestrian access, right-of-way, wetlands, drainage, recreational/historical features, traffic operations and cost. The findings from this evaluation are incorporated into the development of the EA for Phase 2 of the project.
