TRANSPORTATION INVESTMENTS <br /> diverse and the demands of moving goods and <br /> people increases.While the era of major highway <br /> construction has come to an end in the Bay Area, <br /> there are many opportunities to increase the safety, <br /> efficiency and productivity of highway corridors in <br /> Alameda County.The highway investments included <br /> in this plan focus on improving safety,relieving <br /> bottlenecks at interchanges,closing gaps and <br /> improving efficiency with carpool and high <br /> occupancy vehicle infrastructure,and increasing <br /> safety on major truck route corridors. <br /> In addition to focusing on making highways more <br /> efficient,this plan recognizes the need to move goods <br /> safely and effectively.Recognizing the economic <br /> importance of the Port of Oakland,highways must <br /> provide connections between goods and market,and <br /> do so with minimal impacts on our residential <br /> neighborhoods. <br /> BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN <br /> INFRASTRUCTURE (8%) <br /> Virtually every trip begins or ends on foot.Alameda <br /> County's bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure is the <br /> "glue" that holds the network together by extending <br /> the reach of transit service,providing a non-polluting <br /> and sustainable travel mode,and contributing to <br /> public health and quality of life.A particular focus is <br /> on the County's youth to encourage adoption of safe <br /> and healthy habits through Safe Routes to Schools. <br /> SUSTAINABLE LAND USE AND <br /> TRANSPORTATION (4%) AND <br /> TECHNOLOGY AND INNOVATION (1%) <br /> Transportation and land use linkages are <br /> strengthened when development focuses on bringing <br /> together mobility choices,housing and jobs.This plan <br /> includes investments in every part of the County, <br /> enhancing areas around BART stations and bus <br /> transfer hubs that are slated for new development, <br /> and supporting communities where biking, walking <br /> and transit riding are all desirable options.In <br /> addition,a Technology,Innovation and Development <br /> Program will support technological advances in <br /> transportation management and information. <br /> The map on the follow page shows the investments <br /> planned for all modes and in all parts of the County. <br />
