Content: This study was documented in a report on Travel Patterns and Characteristics along the I-5 corridor in the JBLM vicinity. The report describing the development and screening of multimodal options for the corridor can be accessed at the following link: I-5, JBLM Vic. Congestion Relief Study - Phase 2A Alternative Analysis - Development and Screening of Multimodal Options (pdf 9.09 mb)
Between July and November 2014, alternatives advanced from Phase 1 were further evaluated along with those developed during the multi-modal Alternatives Analysis. Alternative "packages" including combinations of transit services, local road improvements and I-5 mainline and interchange improvements were defined and evaluated. Thirteen alternative "packages" were modeled for performance and evaluated for potential environmental impacts as well as implementation characteristics. Performance criteria during the weekday p.m. peak travel period that were modeled and scored include: Traffic speed. Hours of congestion. Travel time between Mounts Road and Bridgeport Way.
