<br />REGIONAL GOALS <br /> <br />Under the federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Act (ISTEA) and state <br />Metropolitan Land Planning Act, the Metropolitan Council prepares a <br />Transportation Development Guide/Policy Plan which establishes regional <br />parameters for local municipal transportation plans. The following basic issues <br />are addressed in the transportation plan, and are supportive of Metropolitan <br />Council policies. <br /> <br />. The plan provides for a minor arterial street system adequate to serve the <br />current and future needs of the citizens of Roseville. <br /> <br />. The land use section includes specific land use types and density information <br />to ensure consistency with highway capacities and design. Where there are <br />incompatibilities between transportation facilities and adjacent land use, <br />methods and actions to mitigate them are included. <br /> <br />. The planned highway and transit components are consistent with the <br />metropolitan highway capacities and designs. <br /> <br />. Allowance is made for the queuing on local streets of vehicles waiting at <br />metered interchanges on the metropolitan highway system. <br /> <br />. Transit and travel demand management (TDM) strategies are included to <br />discourage single-occupant auto use during peak periods for the highly <br />congested corridors of TH 36 and TH 280. <br /> <br />. Goods movement into and out of the Roseville area is addressed in the plan. <br /> <br />. The adequacy and need for pedestrian facilities and bicycle pathways are <br />addressed in the plan. <br /> <br />\ Comprehensive Plan \ OS_Transportation \2003_updates\ Transportation Plan. doc <br /> <br />Roseville Comprehensive Plan - 2003 Update <br /> <br />Transportation - Page 28 of 28 <br />
