Filling Mobility Gaps by Mode: Your Community Input Matters

Through the Mobility Implementation Plan (MIP), the City of Bellevue regularly evaluates the transportation networks that support people walking, bicycling, and driving. The purpose of the MIP evaluation is to understand where there are "Performance Target Gaps" in the arterial network for each mode and to prioritize these gaps for project concept development.

“Gaps” exist where facilities are lacking (for example, missing sidewalk along an arterial street) or conditions fall short of target (for example, a bicycle facility exists, but provides little buffer from fast-moving vehicles). The targets for each mode are provided in the Mobility Implementation Plan. City staff have identified these “gap” locations and, for a select number of corridors, will determine what improvements would be needed to meet the performance target.

As part of this effort, we are looking for input regarding the problems and issues at defined gap locations, as well as the level of interest in closing each gap. This feedback will help the city determine what should be done in the design of project concepts to improve conditions at the various “gap” locations. These project concepts will be considered in the process of updating the 12-year Transportation Facilities Plan (TFP) later this year.
