Agreed Land Use in Corridor
The goal of this task is to identify the character of the road on the preferred alignment. Components of this task:
- For each segment of the road defined by the CPC, determine the character of the road for each segment of the road.
- Based on travel demand modeling and other factors, alternatives to types of roadway, intersection and interchange configurations are appropriate for certain traffic volumes, land use scenarios and facility types will be introduced.
- An analysis of each of the key intersections along the corridor will be developed and include signalized and un-signalized intersections as well as basic simulations and travel time evaluations.
- Evaluate pedestrian, bicycle, and transit accommodations in the corridor.
Status of this Study Product per the Technical Task Force and the Land Use, Economic Development & Municipal Impact Task Force
- 12/13/07
CMAP has completed the existing model and two of the four projected models and estimates completion of the final two projected models by mid January.
TranSystems is creating sub-regional traffic models based on CMAP regional traffic models calibrated to provided traffic data and counts by mid February based on revised CMAP schedule.
Character of Road studies to move forward after further traffic, land use, and financing studies.
Placement of Road studies to move forward after further character of road and environmental studies.
Completing need assessment along existing IL 120
- Analyzing system linkage and continuity
- Analyzed existing pedestrian, bicycle, and transit needs within corridor
- Reviewing safety problems
- Identifying geometric deficiencies

Met with CMAP regarding CMAP preparing regional traffic models for various scenarios:
- Existing
- 2030 projected with LCTIP IL 53 expressway option and with IL 120 Bypass
- 2030 projected with LCTIP IL 53 arterial option and with IL 120 Bypass
- 2030 projected without IL 53 and with IL 120 Bypass
- 2030 projected without IL 53 and without IL 120 Bypass
- CMAP has completed the existing model and one of the four projected models and estimates completion of the final three projected models by end of November
- TranSystems has begun creating sub-regional traffic models based on CMAP regional traffic models calibrated to provided traffic data and counts
