3. Project Map

4. Design Criteria Federal – ADA, Safety Certification, Security Standards State – ODOT Geometric Design and Construction Specifications City – Traffic, Lighting, Design Review and Planning Commission, and Other Local Standards

5. Design Criteria Typical ROW Width – 99 ft Vehicle Lanes – 12 ft Transit Lanes – 11 ft Left Turn Lanes – 10 ft Curb to ROW – 11 ft min, 23.5 ft max Sidewalk Pedestrian Zone – 6 ft min Parking Bay Width – 8 ft Bike Lanes – 5 ft Platform Width – 12 ft Median Width – 4 ft min, 12 ft max Shy Distance – 1 ft

6. Typical Sections

10. Boarding Configurations Public Square Curbside Station Left Side Boarding Median Station Left Side Boarding Median Station Right Side Boarding Median Right Side Boarding (enlarged) Curbside Station Right Side Boarding

11. Public Square Proposed traffic pattern is two/three lanes of one-way counterclockwise flow with the interior lane being an exclusive transit lane

13. Downtown Boarding Physical constraints resulted in decision to build left-side median station platforms –Existing building faces at the ROW line on both sides of the street –Presence of numerous below grade basement areaways/vaults –Requires a roadway section 6 ft. thinner than the median right-side boarding configuration

15. Remainder of Project Stations are designed for right-side boarding in the median and in the curb lane

19. Stations 62 stops @ 36 stations Three unique station designs –Public Square / Downtown –Midtown –University Circle / E. Cleveland A316 Stainless Steel and Glass Modular base design for station types

20. Station Features Attractive Easily accessible fast-loading, near level platforms ADA compliant Conveniently located Integrated within the community they serve Fare vending machines Emergency phones CCTV Real-time passenger information display Passenger-friendly waiting environment Benches and lean bars

27. Traffic Signal System and Communications New Traffic Signals with Transit Priority Optical & GPS Vehicle Detectors Heightened Internet Capability Variable Message System Emergency Telephones at Stations Advanced Pedestrian Signals Programmed Irrigation Systems

28. Traffic Signals for BRT Replacement of entire traffic signal system for the length of the project within the City of Cleveland limits

29. Vehicle Priority System will use Opticom GPS system to monitor electronic signals from approaching BRT vehicle or emergency vehicle. In turn, it will extend green time and prioritize transit phase to give the BRT vehicle priority.

30. Variable Message System Electronic message signs at signs will be connected to the RTA’s new GPS-controlled Automatic Vehicle Locator. These satellite-directed signs will provide real- time messages about the ECVs arrival to waiting passengers.

31. Emergency Telephones Located at each station, these blue- light phones will be connected to RTA security to provide riders with extra safety CCTV with digital video recording devises at each station

32. Advanced Pedestrian Signals Crosswalk signals at Corridor intersections will provide a countdown of the time remaining to allow safe crossing of the street.

33. Pedestrian Safety Pedestrian push buttons will serve as signals for the visually impaired –Will vibrate and sound when it is safe to cross
