1.2 Parking . Parking characcerlstica in the study area in proxiratcy to 

 Che site will be defined. Of particular interest will be an 

 identification of the supply of parking, both on- and off-street 

 which serves the site. 



1.3 Transit . Data will be gathered on public transportation usage 

 levels and improvement plans for commuter rail; rapid transit; 

 shuttle, local and express bus; and water transport services 

 identified. Other baseline transportation data will be derived 

 from previously compiled information and reports. Mode split 

 information will also be gathered from existing sources or through 

 surveys with particular emphasis placed on studies for the 

 Charlestown Navy Yard. 



1.4 Pedestrian . Observations of pedestrian activity in the vicinity of 

 the site will be made, particularly on paths between the site and 

 Downtown Boston and the site and the Navy Yard. Special attention 

 will be given to tourist paths, including the Freedom Trail. 



Task 2 - Evaluation of Long-Term Transportation Impacts 



Expected long-term transportation impacts in the study area will be 

 estimated and evaluated. 



2.1 Trip Generation . The development program will be analyzed to 

 estimate peak period and daily impacts of the project on traffic, 

 pedestrians, parking and public transportation. 



2.2 Conditions to be Analyzed . The following time frames will be 

 analyzed: 



No-Build on post-CANA roadway network - 1991. 



Full Build with addition of project-related impacts on post-CANA 

 roadway network - 1991. 



The following post-CANA intersections will be analysed: 



A. Water Street/Warren Street 



B. Water Street/Chelsea Street 



C. Chelaea Street/Warren Street 



D. Chelaea Street/N, Washington Street/Rutherford Avenue 



E. Rutherford Avenue/Route 1 Northbound Ramps (Sandgrav Road)
