TRANSPORTATION <br />Students and staff utilize various modes of transportation to access a school facility. These <br />modes of transportation often differ for urban, suburban, and rural school sites and must be <br />considered when selecting a site as each have specific access issues and pose potential <br />conflicts that must be solved. <br />1. School sites should have indirect and /or direct access to arterial roads to minimize traffic <br />congestion issues within or near neighborhoods. <br />2. Sites should have frontage on a minimum of two roads providing at least two points of <br />access to the site. Sites having frontage on only one road should be accessible at a <br />minimum of two access points along that road. <br />3. Consider sites that can be accessed via a signalized intersection. <br />4. Site should be easily accessed via pedestrian walkways and bicycle trails. <br />5. Preference should be given to sites served by a network of streets that would support <br />multiple access points. <br />b. Consider sites that have proximity to mass transit or other forms of public transportation for <br />high school sites. <br />Images depict multiple modes of transportation for children and staff. <br />SITE SELECTION <br />Attachment number 1 <br />PAGE 04 <br />F -10 Page 188 <br />Depicts a proposed school site with two access points in close proximity to an arterial road. <br />
