WEC Mapping Committee/Transportation - Other modes
From Eugene Neighbors
Contents |
[edit] Conceptual Summary
composite of flows for transit, rail, bicycle, (pedestrian if we could), with mobility bottlenecks (acute congestion or low connectivity) (trip to school?)
[edit] Map Styles Summary
- area fill - possibly the same VMT map layer as in the motor vehicle map. Alternately, a land uses map.
- linework with graduated widths for transit, bicycle, pedestrian. Modes differentiated by color.
- icons for transit stations
- icons for major trip generators (destinations)
- icons for bottlenecks or other special points of interest.

LTD for transit readership maps?
Exampe of VMT map for background fill layer
"The railroad company that shut down the 120-mile short line between Coquille and Eugene in September unveiled a plan on Wednesday to fix the line, including problems that they initially said caused the closure." — Recent news on Central Oregon and Pacific Railroad
[edit] RLID Layers of Potential Relevance
RLID offers many layers in its transportation category:
Layers that could be useful for presenting other transportation modes:
- Eugene Sidewalks
- Eugene sidewalks represent a segment of the City's infrastructure system. This coverage is used by the Engineering Project Teams, Planners, Permit and Information Staff, and others to locate built sidewalks.
- Eugene-Springfield Metro Bicycle System
- Bicycle paths, routes, etc in Eugene-Springfield. Includes off street, on street, connectors between blocks.
- LTD Bus Routes
- (This layer appears to be as much as a decade old.)
- LTD Bus Stops
- LTD Bus Stops are an unadjusted file that are plotted with the unadjusted, expanded metro roads file. Not all bus stops are open and in use - see the Data dictionary.
- Lane County Railroads - OLD
- Railroad track in Lane County. Not all tracks are attributed with company name in the fname field.
- Metro Nodal Development Areas - TransPlan
- This coverage displays potential nodal development areas in the Eugene-Springfield metropolitan area, as they were depicted in TransPlan.
