The proposed ordinance, if approved, will add two new paragraphs to Section 3-1-1 of the code.

MTC Section 9-13-7 includes operational requirements for mobile food vendors related to numerous topics, including fire safety and inspection, noise restrictions, security, and acceptable locations for mobile food vendors to operate, among other items. Paragraph G of Section 9-13-7 addresses parking and sets forth several requirements for mobile food vendors when parking within the Town right-of-way.

Motion passed, 7-0 COUNCIL ACTION Al Resolution No. 2024-075: Relating to Elections; declaring and adopting the results of the Town of Marana primary election held on July 30, 2024; certifying the facts requiring an automatic recount of the July 30, 2024 election to the Pima County Superior Special Council Meeting Summary Minutes August 13, 2024 Page 1 of 6 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 18 of 580 Court; authorizing the filing of a petition in Pima County Superior Court for an order requiring the recount (David L. Udall and Jane Fairall) Town Clerk / Assistant Town Attorney David Udall presented on this item. Mr. Udall said that under Arizona law, the Town is required to enter on the record the official canvass of the votes of the July 30, 2024 primary election. He said the official canvass was included in the agenda materials accompanying this item, along with a resolution declaring the election results as follows: • For the office of Mayor - Ed Honea • For the first of two offices of Council Member - Patrick Cavanaugh Regarding the second Council Member office, because the margin of the votes cast between Roxanne Ziegler and Melissa Zupi was within one-half of one percent of the total number of votes cast for both candidates for that seat, Arizona law requires an automatic recount. Mr. Udall said that, if approved, the resolution accompanying this item will declare and adopt the results of the 2024 primary election, certify the facts requiring an automatic recount to the Pima County Superior Court, and authorize the Towri s Legal Department to file a recount petition in Superior Court. Vice Mayor Post moved to adopt Resolution No. 2024-075. Council Member Comerford seconded the motion. Motion passed, 7-0. ITEMS FOR DISCUSSION/POSSIBLE ACTION D1 Relating to Parks and Recreation; presentation, discussion and possible action regarding proposed fees for use of the Marana Community and Aquatic Center. Town Manager Terry Rozema introduced this item and its presenters. He said Town staff has taken the feedback provided by the Council from various discussions and incorporated it into the fee proposals presented at this meeting. He said one of the considerations suggested was cost recovery, but he said as they looked at other jurisdictions, he asked staff to instead focus on what would be a reasonable cost to Town residents. He said cost recovery did not depend on the amount of the fee so much as the number of people that come to use the facility, and that the number of memberships mattered more for cost recovery as a result. Parks and Recreation Director Jim Conroy, Deputy Parks and Recreation Director Wayne Barnett, and Aquatics Superintendent Brandon Laue then presented on this item. A copy of the presentation slides is on file with the Town Clerk's Office. The presentation included images of the facility and tables outlining the proposed fees, along Special Council Meeting Summary Minutes August 13, 2024 Page 2 of 6 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 19 of 580 September 3, 2024 with tables comparing the proposed fees to other jurisdictions. For detailed information regarding the presentation of the proposed fees, please see the presentation slides. Clarifying questions were asked and answered during the presentation, and general discussion amongst the Council and staff ensued as follows: • As the presenters reviewed the fee tables, they highlighted the following: o This facility is a unique facility. o Marana zip codes and immediately adjacent zip codes would qualify for the proposed residential rate. o The reason for the higher rental fee for all courts in the gymnasium was due to the fact that the entire gym would be unavailable to other residents during the rental time. Similar reasoning supported the proposed fee for renting out the whole pool. o The reasoning behind the higher after-hours rental fee is due to the need to have staff stay after hours for the event. • Council Member Comerford asked what the minimum age was for a minor to enter the facility unaccompanied. Mr. Barnett said the minimum age was 13. • Council Member Kai asked if the community room would have kitchen facilities. Mr. Barnett said there would be a small warming kitchen. • Council Member Comerford asked if there are separate entrances for after-hours facilities so people don't need to come through the main entrance. Mr. Barnett said there are, but that they prefer people to come through the main entrance so staff can know who is coming in and out of the building. • Council Member Craig asked if staff anticipated a lot of youth renting out the whole pool facility. Mr. Laue said the pool was a popular amenity, but that it was also seasonal. Mr. Conroy explained that the Town would need to be strategic and careful about balancing renting out the facility with protecting hours for use by all residents. • Council Member Comerford asked about rentals to the local swim team. Mr. Laue said the aquatics facility could be partitioned so that the competition pool could be rented separately while the recreational pool remained open to the public (or was separately rented, and vice versa). Council Member Comerford asked if the swim team would be able to afford the cost if they had to rent out the pool for ten Special Council Meeting Summary Minutes August 13, 2024 Page 3 of 6 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 20 of 580 to twelve hours per day. Mr. Conroy said that was another area that needed careful balancing. • Council Member Ziegler complemented the presenters and said she was excited to see the proposed rates. She said staff has done an excellent job at keeping the rates low. She asked if there would be a veterans discount or other veteran benefits. She also recommended that members of MPOA and the Police Department be able to use the facility at no charge, and recommended that Town employees have a time in which they could go to the facility at no charge. Mr. Rozema said staff would look into a veterans benefit. He said that making the facility available to employees (individually, not including their families) for free was one of the considerations of staff and requested feedback from the Council on that. o Council Member Ziegler and Council Member Craig said they were in favor of individual employees (which would include the Police Department) getting in for free. • Mayor Honea expressed concern with the possibility of private sector companies renting all three basketball courts for sports tournaments in which they would make a lot of money at the expense of the residents of the Town. Mr. Conroy said the Town has experience with dealing with those concerns with regard to the baseball fields and said it is something staff aggressively monitors. • Mayor Honea said the Town should prioritize its own residents and those adjacent to Marana. • Council Member Comerford said the Town used to do holiday parties and said employees could again have holiday parties in the community room. She also said the child watch was a good amenity because it allows single parents to enjoy the facility. Mr. Rozema summarized the feedback from the Council and said he believed there was a consensus among the Council to move forward with the proposed fees, including free access for Town employees but not their families. He said staff would look into veteran benefits. There was a consensus among the Council.

LIQUOR LICENSES BOARDS, COMMISSIONS AND COMMITTEES COUNCIL ACTION Council Regular Meeting Summary Minutes August 20, 2024 Page 3 of 7 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 26 of 580 Al Resolution No. 2024-081: Relating to Community Facility Districts; Consideration and possible adoption of a resolution approving and authorizing the execution and delivery of a district development, financing participation and intergovernmental agreement (Mandarina Community Facilities District) (Yiannis Kalaitzidis) Finance Director Yiannis Kalaitzidis presented on this item. Detailed presentation slides, including summary points of the community facilities district proposal, tables, images, and maps, are on file with the Town Clerk's Office. For more information regarding the presentation please see the presentation slides. Clarifying questions were asked and answered during the presentation, and general discussion occurred as follows: • Mr. Kalaitzidis highlighted that the item before the Council involved the approval of a community facilities district (CFD) agreement for the proposed Mandarina Community Facilities District, and that the actual formation of the district would be brought before Council at a later date. • Vice Mayor Post asked why Mandarina was suddenly wanting a CFD. He said it was the first time he had heard of it. Mr. Kalaitzidis said his understanding was that Mandarina has always wanted a CFD. • Vice Mayor Post asked why the Town was considering a $3.80 tax rate for the CFD instead of the standard $2.50. He said the Council established a higher rate for extraordinary infrastructure expenses like full -build interchanges, which are not involved here. Mr. Kalaitzidis said the higher rates were appropriate for regional projects like the drainage completed by Mandarina. Vice Mayor Post said there were protected facilities agreements in place to reimburse the developer for the regional infrastructure and said this would cause double dipping for reimbursement. Mr. Kalaitzidis said the development agreement prohibits double dipping. Vice Mayor Post said he didn't remember discussions regarding setting the rate such that it would guarantee Mandarina to get all of its money back. Mr. Kalaitzidis said there is never a guarantee the developer's full reimbursement will be recouped, and Vice Mayor Post commented this is what the CFD would do. • Deputy Town Manager Erik Montague said the Mandarina CFD has been contemplated for some period of time, even going back to the Mandarina settlement agreement. He said Town staff believes that the agreement before the Council conforms to the Council's direction that a CFD rate higher than $2.50 is appropriate in cases where extraordinary infrastructure is involved. He said part of the reason for coming before Council at this time was to receive feedback related to significant deal points. Council Regular Meeting Summary Minutes August 20, 2024 Page 4 of 7 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 27 of 580 • Mayor Honea said issuing a CFD was not a guarantee. He said other jurisdictions do not have CFDs, and that he was accountable to the voters and taxpayers of the community. He said he would be a no vote if the rate was set at $3.80 and said he was disappointed it was brought before Council at that rate. He said this directly impacts housing payments for members of the community and said he wished he had had a heads -up on this item earlier than tonight. Vice Mayor Post said he would also be a no vote if the rate was set at $3.80 and said he did not think the infrastructure involved justified extraordinary costs. • Council Member Kai said when people shop for homes, they will look at whether there is a CFD tax and that many people do not want to face that. • Council Member Craig asked (1) if the creation of the CFD would impact the Towri s ability to borrow money and (2) what the worst -case scenario would be if a recession hit, and the developer walked away and did not help during that time. Mr. Kalaitzidis said (1) a CFD is a separate legal entity and that there should be little to no impact on the Town and (2) that, in a worst -case scenario, the CFD would raise the tax levy on residents. Council Member Kai expressed concern with CFDs during periods of recession. • Council Member Comerford said there was nothing in the deal requiring Mandarina to help pay for the needed Tangerine interchange improvements and said a lot of homes will be going in at the development. Mr. Kalaitzidis said his understanding was that the CFD would not be participating in the Tangerine interchange improvements, but that the development would contribute to it by way of impact fee payments. Mr. Karl Huish, owner of Mandarina Holdings, addressed the Council. He highlighted two extraordinary infrastructure improvements Mandarina installed that he said he never had to do in his development career: (1) the regional drainage channels that lifted 350 acres out of the flood plain and (2) the offsite water and wastewater infrastructure that had to be installed underneath Interstate 10. He said one of the tunnels was required to be hand -dug under the interstate. He said the reason there had not been development on the east side of Interstate 10 was because of the high costs of the required infrastructure and that Mandarina made future development possible in that area because Mandarina paid those costs. He also highlighted that inflation has caused the costs of installing infrastructure to be much higher than when the last CFD was established at a rate of $2.50. Mayor Honea indicated the Council would not take any action on this item. Mr. Paul Gales of GreenbergTraurig, outside counsel for the Town on this item, addressed the Council and answered questions regarding the Council's procedural options. Council Regular Meeting Summary Minutes August 20, 2024 Page 5 of 7 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 28 of 580 Vice Mayor Post moved to adopt Resolution No. 2024-081, as amended to set a tax rate of $2.50 plus $0.30 maintenance.

Mayor Honea voted Nay, Vice Mayor Post voted Aye, Council Member Craig voted Aye, Council Member Comerford voted Aye, Council Member Kai voted Nay, and Council Member Officer voted Aye.

Also on January 4, 2005, the Town Council adopted Resolution No. 2004-168, approving a Development Agreement between the Town and Payson Farms, Inc. and Tri Marana Development Management and Consulting LLC governing development of the property rezoned by Ordinance No. 2004.23, then known as Payson Farms (the "Original DA"). On October 5, 2021, the Town Council adopted Ordinance No. 2021.021, modifying certain conditions of Ordinance No. 2004.23, including removing a rezoning condition from the 2004 ordinance that required larger lot sizes than is required by standard R-6 zoning. Ordinance No. 2021.021 also made other revisions to the conditions of rezoning to conform to current Town policies and standard conditions. The property is now known as Remington Ranch and is being developed by American Homes for Rent. Town staff and the developer have negotiated a first amendment to the Original DA, to reflect and memorialize changes that have occurred in the intervening 19.5 years since the Original DA was approved, as well as the changed conditions set forth in Ordinance No. 2021.021. The following summarizes the Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 31 of 580 September 3, 2024 provisions of the proposed first amendment: • Deletes outdated provisions in the Original DA regarding water, wastewater, and non -potable water, and instead requires compliance with the 2021 ordinance conditions regarding these topics. • For onsite private recreational requirements, the Original DA refers to the Town's old 185 square feet per residential unit standard. The amendment requires the developer to comply with the new, higher standards in Marana Town Code (MTC) Section 17-5-3.B.12 for recreational requirements, which will require 300 square feet per unit. • For CMID canal undergrounding, the provision in the Original DA is deleted, and instead the developer must comply with current MTC Sections 17-5-3.B.17 and 17-6-4 requiring undergrounding and enclosure of all irrigation channels and ditches within the property or adjacent thereto within perimeter easements or the nearest half of a street or alley right-of-way. • Adds a new paragraph memorializing that the property must pay the Rancho Marana Water Main protected facility fee applicable to the development. • Extends the DA for 10 more years from now. The original DA would expire in January 2025. In addition to all of the above, the Original DA required the developer to construct and dedicate to the Town that portion of the Barnett Channel Linear Park located on the property, providing that the lands and improvements would be deeded to the Town after construction and acceptance by the Town. Because the Original DA predates the Town's adoption of Parks development impact fees, this paragraph of the Original DA also required the developer to contribute $1,000 per residential unit to be used by the Town for regional park purposes. This first amendment to the Original DA memorializes that the property (9 acres) for the Barnett Channel Linear Park has already been dedicated to the Town, via the recording of the original Payson Farms plat in 2006, and eliminates the $1,000 fee because the development is now required to pay the Parks impact fee of $2,529 per equivalent dwelling unit (EDU). Additionally, rather than requiring construction of a trail, the first amendment requires the developer to grade the bottom and slopes of the Barnett Channel adjacent to the property and to stabilize the channel to prevent future erosion. Any provision of the Original DA not addressed in the first amendment, will remain in full force and effect. In addition to the proposed first amendment, Town staff has also attached Ordinance No. 2004.23, the Original DA, and Ordinance No. 2021.021 to this agenda item for the Council's convenience. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends approval of the first amendment to the Payson Farms Development Agreement. Suggested Motion: Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 32 of 580 September 3, 2024 I move to adopt Resolution No. 2024-082, approving and authorizing the Mayor to execute the First Amendment to Payson Farms Development Agreement.

The mediator selected shall have at least five years' experience in mediating or arbitrating disputes relating to real estate development. The cost of any such mediation shall be divided equally between the Town and the Developer.

Subject: Resolution No. 2024-083: Relating to Transportation; approving and adopting the Marana Transportation Master Plan (Fausto Burruel) Discussion: In accordance with the Town of Marana 2040 General Plan, and at the direction of Mayor and Council and the Town Manager, the Public Works Department has updated the Marana Transportation Master Plan for consideration and adoption by Mayor and Council. The planning effort included soliciting public input, inventorying the transportation system, and conducting computer modeling to develop a Transportation Master Plan that will guide transportation decisions today and in the future. Public input was gained using an on-line survey that included the opportunity for respondents to pin -point concerns on a map. Stakeholder meetings were convened, including neighboring municipalities, Marana Unified School District, and emergency services providers, among others. The Marana transportation system was evaluated based on today's demographics and facilities, and also evaluated based on approved land -use plans and future projections for population and employment, using the same Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 69 of 580 September 3, 2024 travel demand model that is used for regional planning. The resulting Transportation Master Plan presents recommended roadway and multimodal improvements with short-term, medium term and long-term implementation horizons. Freight and aviation recommendations are identified. A discussion regarding "Street Typologies" offers flexibility to support a Complete Streets approach to street design. Building upon the guiding principles elicited from the Make Marana General Plan -- including safety and mobility for all, connectivity and access, sustainability and resilience, maintenance and optimization, and economic vitality - the Marana Transportation Master Plan will support transportation decisions for the next 30 years.

Marana is changing - more people and businesses are moving here every day, and the mobility needs of our residents are increasing. To provide our residents, visitors, and businesses with a transportation system that works, we need to face our transportation future head-on. The Marano Transportation Master Plan (TMP) serves as a roadmap for transportation investment, policy, and future needs in Marana for the next 30 years so everyone can safely and comfortably drive, walk, bike, or ride. The Plan addresses all transportation modes in Marana—vehicular, nonmotorized, micromobility, transit, and aviation —and provides the Town with direction on specific improvements to enhance the ability of residents and visitors to navigate the community. Some of the significant recommendations and elements of the TMP include the following: • An ultimate roadway plan to guide local and regional investments by the year 2055. • Identification of high priority projects for roadways, intersections, safety, and multimodal improvements. • Recommended street cross sections to guide development. How the Town Will Use the TMP The TMP builds on the Town's strategic goals, past planning efforts, and aligns transportation needs and recommendations with other Town and Regional planning efforts. Ultimately, the TMP serves as the guiding vision for transportation investment, policy, and future needs in the current Town limits and within the greater Marana Planning Area. The TMP will inform the Town's next Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) update and future master planning efforts conducted by the Town.

The Transportation Master Plan reviewed best practices and considered emerging trends to identify gaps in the system and future travel needs. The plan developed a series of short-, mid-, and long-term improvements to address the growing multimodal needs of the Town. The multi -phased process included the following steps: Learn from the Past Previous and on -going plans, studies, community feedback, and programmed improvements were reviewed and served as the baseline for technical analysis. What's the Plan? The TMP includes a final list of projects, programs, and policies along with metrics to monitor _f performance and an action 1, plan for getting it all done. ,n_ MARANA Marana Today and Tomorrow We analyzed data, talked to residents, and held an online survey to understand existing transportation conditions, needs, challenges, and opportunities. What are our Priorities? Improvement strategies identified in the previous step were evaluated and prioritized against an evaluation framework tied to TMP goals. What Do We Want? Based on public feedback and existing conditions findings, a Transportation Vision for the Town was established. What We Need? Based on findings, complete modal networks were developed and improvement strategies identified to address or mitigate issues and system gaps. 4 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 81 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan aS, STUDY NETWORK Streets are the physical backbone of Marana's transportation network and one of the Town's largest public assets. Marana's townwide street layout is predominantly influenced by the surrounding natural and man-made factors including rivers, mountains, freeways, and railroads. Developing a complete and connected multimodal network begins with identifying a transportation network of roadways called the "study network" that serve as the basis for analyzing the performance and function of the Town's transportation system. Figure 1-1 illustrates the Marana TMP's study network.

The establishment of a clear vision and goals is important because they set a foundation for plan development and ultimately inform decision -making and prioritizing transportation improvement investments. The TMP goals and objectives outlined in this section were founded and informed by the Marana General Plan, community feedback during the TMP, regional and federal goals, other Town plans, and Town staff feedback. Marana's Mobility Vision A vision statement is a long-range aspirational statement that is meant to articulate the ultimate outcomes. The Marana 2040 General Plan includes a strategic recommendation for the Town to create a connected, convenient, accessible, safe, and economically sustainable transportation system that accommodates all users. The Marana TMP carries forward the General Plan's connectivity, safety, and multimodal principles to establish a framework for developing and implementing a transportation system that enhances the community's quality of life, provides travel options for all users, and better connects people to the places that matter to them, regardless of the mode of travel. To carry forward community feedback heard from the General Plan and during the development of the TMP, the following vision statement is proposed: "Marana's transportation system is a safe, efficient, and interconnected multimodal network that supports a thriving community." Marana's Guiding Principles & Strategies The guiding principles and strategies for the TMP will help achieve the desired outcomes established in the vision statement. Guiding principles are general statements that the TMP aims to achieve over time. Strategies are specific actions that will guide the decision - making process to help achieve the goals of the study. 6 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 83 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Safety and Mobility for All Create a transportation network that consists of safe and comfortable mobility options for all current and future users. • Work towards reducing traffic -related fatalities and serious injuries for all modes.

This chapter provides an overview of existing and projected socioeconomics, land use patterns, and economic characteristics and trends that sets a baseline for evaluating the Town's transportation system. Marana's Place in the Region Set against the foothills of the Tortolita Mountains, Marana extends to the Saguaro National Park to the southwest. Marana is strategically located along Interstate 10 (I-10), that bisects the Town. In 1977, the Town of Marana was incorporated, and has since taken on a more suburban character, experiencing consistent development. Its position between Tucson and Phoenix makes it a prime strategic location for a wide variety of economic activities and growth. Casa Grande Oro ,.Valley Tucson Demographic Trends and Changes Since 1990, the Town's population has increased by 1,558% - making it one of the fastest growing areas in Arizona. Like any growing town, Marana's population, land use, demographics, and community needs are changing. As the Town continues to grow, it is imperative that everyone in Marano has access to high -quality transportation infrastructure regardless of what mode they use. • Pi •/ •/� • • Aro rr 11 n a V RI 56,758 $94,983 28.9 min 40% 75.1% people live in median household average of residents are of workers drive Marana today income commute time under 35 years old to work alone Land Uses are Changing Today, the Marano Planning Area is largely vacant land, with 56% of all land within the Planning Area characterized as vacant or undeveloped. However, Marana is in the middle of a growth surge, with a variety of new master planned communities and commercial developments planned or currently under construction. Much of this development has been converting open, vacant parcels into residential communities, retail shops, warehouses, and other commercial properties. Currently, there are over 40 Specific Plans for developments that have been adopted but not yet constructed.

Understanding where growth is greatest is imperative to creating a plan that manages the increased demands on our transportation system. Marana is Growing As illustrated in Figure 2-2 and Figure 2-3, Marana's growth and development has largely focused along the I-10 corridor until 2010. Master planned communities, such as Dove Mountain and Gladden Farms, have expanded development and created some of the highest densities in Marano. While significant portions of Marana and adjacent communities are slated for development, the majority of the community remains rural with less than 1,000 residents per square mile.

The following summarizes existing and future travel conditions. With an average commute time of 28.9 minutes (per U.S. Census Bureau), Marana residents don't just drive a lot, they also have longer trips. According to Replica, Marana's average trip distance is 16.4 miles, in comparison to 9.4 miles in Tucson. Replica is an activity -based travel demand model that incorporates anonymized data from a variety of sources like the US Census Bureau, mobile location data, land use, economic activity, and others to model how people get around, where they travel to, and when they travel. Marana's Street Network Today Figure 2-5 illustrates the number of lanes on Marana's street system today. It is important to note that the figure represents the general number of through lanes and there may be short sections with more lanes where development has occurred. The number of lanes provided at individual intersections also varies. There are locations where additional through and/or turn lanes exist to improve intersection capacity. 1-10 from Ina Road south to Ruthrauff Road is currently being widened to from three lanes in each direction to four lanes. Traffic Control Traffic control devices help manage the movement of people and goods in an efficient manner. Traffic control devices include: • Traffic Signals: controls the flow of vehicles on the roadway network. Improving traffic signal timing can increase mobility and reduce overall congestion. Currently there are 33 traffic signals in the Town and 3 currently in design. • High Intensity Activated CrossWalK (HAWK): designed to help pedestrians safely cross busy or higher -speed roadways at midblock crossings and uncontrolled intersections. Unlike traffic signals, the HAWK is activated only when a pedestrian pushes the crossing button. Vehicles are free to move when no one is crossing the street unless it is solid red. There are three HAWK signals in the Marana Planning Area. • Traffic Signs: A STOP or YIELD sign notifies drivers to bring their vehicle to a full stop or yield at intersections. Figure 2-5 illustrates the location of traffic control devices on the study network.

Numerous factors, including the Town's pattern of growth and location along the Interstate 10 corridor, have contributed to the congestion residents experience. As illustrated by the long commute times in Marano, many of Marana's residents travel outside of the Town for their daily commutes. While Marana is making significant advances in fostering employment in the Town, most residents will continue to commute out of the Town, requiring increased access to regional routes. Corridor and Intersection Level of Service Level of Service (LOS) is a term used to describe traffic operations. Level of Service can be calculated for the various elements of a street system including road segments, signalized intersections, and unsignalized intersections. The various levels of service range from LOS A (free flowing traffic) to LOS F (forced flow, or very congested). Figure 2-6 illustrates existing LOS by corridor segment and intersection, while Table 2-2 outlines existing LOS by intersection during the AM and PM peak periods. As the figure and table show, portions of the Interstate 10 frontage roads, Ina Road, and Cortaro Road have the highest congestion/worst operating conditions in the Planning Area. Most congestion issues are along corridors that connect to the Interstate 10 corridor.

While most drivers expect some form of congestion, particularly during peak hours, having a predictable travel time is important for users so they can get to where they are going on time. Freight carriers also require dependable travel times to remain competitive. Travel time reliability, the level of congestion, average delay time, and average travel speeds provide valuable metrics for assessing roadway performance. Travel Time Index (2022) Travel Time Index represents a ratio of travel time in the peak period to the travel time at free -flow conditions. Travel Time Index values are the highest on east -west corridors connecting to Interstate 10, including Marana Road, Cortaro Road, Orange Grove Road, and Ina Road.

This segment of UPRR is an active line with numerous trains each day and night. Within Marana town limits, the UPRR has 16 trains during the day and 16 trains each night. The rail corridor includes six at -grade street crossings. Traffic volumes on Cortaro Farms Road and Tangerine Road are high, and with the number of trains each day, safety and mobility along the corridors may be impacted. In addition, the high number of train crossings may cause delays and congestion issues. Train delays on Cortaro Farms Road Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 100 of 580 23 How Safe Are our Streets? Street safety for all users - motorists, transit riders, people walking, and people riding bicycles - is a top concern for the Town. Crash data analysis helps identify trends, patterns, predominant crash types, and high crash rate corridors and intersections. This analysis also helps identify potential safety improvements to reduce the frequency and severity of crashes. Figure 2-7 illustrates locations of fatal and serious injury crashes in the Marana Planning Area. What the Data Tells Us Crash analysis presented in this section is based on data obtained from ADOT's Arizona Crash Information System (ACIS) for the five- year period of July 2017 to June 2022 within the Marana Planning Area. • A Safe Community. Compared to peer towns, Marana has one of the lowest number of fatal crashes. ADOT's 2022 Arizona Crash Facts Summary shows that Marana had 5 fatal crashes (including crashes occurring along 1-10) in 2022, which is lower than many peer cities, such as Tucson (101), Oro Valley (6), and Casa Grande (7). • Fatal and Serious Injury Crashes are on the Rise. Since 2017, fatal crashes in Marana have tripled, and there has been a 260% increase in serious injury crashes since 2019. • A significant number of crashes happen at intersections. Nationwide, there is a disproportionate split between crashes occurring at intersections and along corridors, Marana is no different with nearly 61 percent of all crashes occurring at intersections. Thirty-three percent of all fatal crashes and 43 percent of serious injury crashes were intersection related. • Pedestrian and bicycle safety is a concern. Pedestrian and bicyclist fatalities account for 33 percent of all fatal crashes in the Town. Bicyclist involved crashes have increased by 400 percent since 2017.

As Marana develops, the demand for additional transportation options is changing. In addition to driving, people want safe and comfortable places to walk and bike, whether it is to take kids to school, the park, or to walk the dog around the block. Marana's Pedestrian Network Today Sidewalks and crossings are the basic building blocks of a walkable and connected community. To complete the pedestrian network, sidewalks are supported by a collection of facilities to create a more visible, navigable, and enjoyable walking experience. Figure 2-8 illustrates the Town's expansive pedestrian network. Increasing Walking Opportunities Municipal and private developments throughout Marana are creating new walkable landscapes. Streets surrounding the Marana Municipal Complex provide several amenities for people who walk, including periodic benches and shade -covered bus stops that provide opportunities for people walking to rest. New developments like Gladden Farms are also creating pedestrian access paths that help create a denser more interconnected walking network within the neighborhood. Barriers to Walking Simply having a sidewalk doesn't necessarily mean that people will feel comfortable on the street. The conditions on a street - such as the presence of streetlights - directly impact how people feel when walking. While the Town has made significant investments in expanding and enhancing its pedestrian network, barriers to walking exist, including: • Freeways, roads, and canals create physical barriers. • Sporadic corridor and business development create gaps in sidewalks. • Uneven surfaces, obstructions, or poor sidewalk conditions create deterrents, particularly for persons using wheelchairs or mobility devices. Crossing the Street Crossings deserve special attention, as the highest chance for interaction between people walking and driving is at crossing points. In Marana: • Signalized intersections provide walk phases and crosswalks to indicate to all road users when and where people walking should travel. • Signalized mid -block crossings are primarily near major activity centers and schools. • Pedestrian warning signs and marked crosswalks are provided at some uncontrolled intersections. While unsignalized crosswalks are provided along low - speed roadways, some require pedestrians to navigate crossing roadways with posted speeds of 30 mph or above which may be uncomfortable for some users.

Over the last two decades, Marana has developed an expansive, enviable network of bicycle facilities and trails that serve as a foundation for creating a connected network for users to safely bike to their home, work, school, or for play. Figure 2-9 illustrates the existing designated bike facilities and planned bike facilities in Marano. As shown, the Town is dominated by shared -use paths and paved shoulders. Over time, a shared use path along the Santa Cruz River is being developed to build a central feature of a connected network of trails and paths to make it easy for residents to choose bicycling or walking for transportation, recreation, or exercise. The following are examples of bicycle facilities provided in Marana today: Shared Use Paths Shared use paths provide a dedicated facility for people biking, walking, or rolling. To make a shared use path comfortable for most users, it is important that driveway access is minimized. • Comfortable for most bike users. • May be uncomfortable for large groups of sports or fitness riders and sports enthusiasts who may not have enough space to pass slower riders. Paved Shoulders When adequate width is provided, shoulders can serve bicycle travel on roads, providing a more comfortable alternative to shared roadway travel. • Comfortable for some sports or fitness riders and roadway enthusiasts. • May be uncomfortable for kids and families, small wheel users who require well maintained surface, and utility or commuter riders depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. Local Streets/Mixed-use Streets/Bike Boulevards While residential streets may not be a formal part of the bike network, they often have low traffic volumes and lower speeds that make them comfortable for use by all people biking. Bike boulevards are enhanced with features intended to manage traffic speeds and volumes. • Comfortable for all road users so long as observed traffic speeds and volumes are very low. Bike Lanes Bike lanes are a portion of road designated for people biking through use of pavement markings and optional signs. • Comfortable for sports or fitness riders, some roadway enthusiasts. • Acceptable for utilitarian commuters, or those on small wheels depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. • May be uncomfortable for some kids and families, depending on speeds, volumes, and lanes. Other Bike Facility Types That Marana May Benefit From: Buffered Bike Lanes These bike lanes include a painted buffer between the bike lane and vehicular traffic or parking. • Comfortable for sports or fitness riders, some roadway enthusiasts. • Acceptable for utilitarian commuters, or those on small wheels depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. • May be uncomfortable for some kids and families, depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. Separated Bikeways These one- or two-way bikeways are exclusive to bicyclists and are physically separated from vehicular traffic by a vertical element. • Comfortable for most bike users. • Acceptable for kids and families depending on the type and degree of physical separation. • May be uncomfortable for some road enthusiasts who prefer greater space to maneuver and prefer to ride in the roadway. 28 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 105 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 reiCK ' ) a . .i rt�lit Existing Facilities - Existing Shared Use Path - On -Street Bike Facility - Existing Trail Manna Parks and Recreation Master Plan Planned Shared Use Path Planned River Park Trail Planned Trail Study Network River, Wash, or Canal -� -- Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary Town of Marana Town of Marana Planning Area Park, Open Space. or Golf Course A$OUr[p Town ut Mar,y,a, Rma Gmnry.

Public transit provides important access and connectivity to key destinations and regional access to employment, education, shopping, and services. Transit services in Marana are provided by Sun Tran, the regional public transportation authority for the Tucson metropolitan area, and a variety of social service agencies. Marana's System Today To meet different trip purposes, a variety of transit route types are needed. For example, express bus routes and the light rail excel at taking commuters and residents to major employment and activity centers. Local bus routes, however, provide increased neighborhood connectivity through frequent stops, fixed service, and closer access to destinations/origins. Figure 2-10 illustrates current transit routes in Marana. Existing transit services include: • Sun Tran: Sun Tran operates 29 regular fixed routes with daily service in Tucson, the Tohono O'odham Nation, Pasqua Yaqui Tribe and Pima County. Route 16 serves Ina Road in Marana and reaches several destinations including downtown and Tucson Mall. • Sun Shuttle Routes: Sun Shuttle operates 12 neighborhood circulator routes throughout the Tucson metropolitan area, with several connections traveling through or to destinations in Marana. Routes in Marana include the 412 and 413. • Sun Express: Sun Express is a fast commuter transportation service that makes limited stops from outlying areas to major destinations. Marana currently is served by the following Express routes: O 102X Northwest - UA Express: connects multiple stops along Ina Road to downtown Tucson and Oro Valley. O 103X Northwest - Downtown Express: connects multiple stops along Ina Road to downtown Tucson. O 104X Marana - Downtown Express: provides direct service from Ina Road/ Star Commerce Way and the Crossroads at Silverbell District Park to downtown Tucson. O 203X Oro Valley - Aero Park Express: connects multiple stops along Ina Road to Oro Valley and downtown Tucson. O 204X Northwest - Aero Park Express: connects multiple stops from Laos Transit Center to the Crossroads at Silverbell District Park. • Sun Shuttle Dial -A -Ride: Sun Shuttle provides curb to curb paratransit service to 22 stops in the Marana/Avra Valley area as shown on the right. • Vanpool: commuter vanpools allow groups of employees to self - organize and lease a vehicle from Sun Tran to operate a carpool service, providing a flexible transit solution for those trips not well served by more conventional fixed route service.

The efficient movement of freight, goods, and packages is extremely important to Marana and the region's economic prosperity. Where Trucks are Traveling Replica data provides truck usage estimates for vehicles classified by Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) as Class 4 or higher, which range from medium size city delivery trucks to large freight vehicles. Using Replica data, key routes heavily used by trucks can be identified. As illustrated in Figure 2-11, higher truck volumes can be found on freeways and several key arterials. Many of these corridors not only have high truck volumes, but also have high percentages of trucks. Corridors with high truck usage include: • 1-10 corridor • Tangerine Road (Tangerine Farms Road to east of I-10) • Tangerine Road (east of Camino de Oeste) • Twin Peaks Road (Coachline Boulevard to Camino de Manana) • Cortaro Road / Cortaro Farms Road (Silverbell Road to Hartman Lane) • Ina Road (Silverbell Road to Thornydale Road) • Orange Grove Road (east of 1-10) • Silverbell Road (Cortaro Road to Coachline Boulevard) • Thornydale Road (Ina Road to Orange Grove Road) In addition, the 2022 Arizona Department of Transportation (ADOT) Statewide Freight Plan identified the I-l0/Cortaro Road Traffic Interchange (TI) as a recurring urban congestion bottleneck that may substantially impact cargo movement. Marana Regional Airport (AVQ) The Marana Regional Airport (AVQ) is classified as a general aviation reliever airport for Tucson International and is owned and maintained by the Town. The airport is accessed from Avra Valley Road, approximately five miles west of Interstate 10. • Annual Operations (2023): >90,000 takeoffs/ landings. • Services/Features: Fixed -base operator (FBO), flight school, specialty maintenance, aviation fuel, restaurant, aircraft tie -down space, hangar rental. • Economic Impact: According to the 2021 ADOT Arizona Aviation Economic Impact Study, AVQ has over 360 employees and had $17,283,000 of earnings in 2021. Pinal County Airpark (MZJ) Pinal County Airpark (MZJ) is a non -towered, Pinal County -owned, public -use, general aviation airport located 8 miles northwest of downtown Marana. MZJ is one of the largest aircraft storage facilities in the world, and on -airport tenants Ascent Aviation Service and Jetyard provide maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services for commercial passenger jets. Similar to Marana Regional Airport, growth and development surrounding the Pinal County Airpark may increase vehicle and freight volumes to/from the Airpark.

During the 2022 fiscal year, the Town issued over 1,300 single family residential permits alone; the highest number of residential permits issued in a single year within the last decade. This rapid growth and maturing urban development; however, not only creates opportunities, but it poses challenges to Marana's transportation system. Understanding where growth is greatest is imperative to creating a plan that manages the increased demands of the Town's transportation system. Planned Developments Figure 3-1 illustrates active developments in the Town of Marana. Active developments included existing developments and those that are actively under review and development. It is expected that Marana's traditional suburban growth and development patterns will continue in undeveloped land along 1-10, the northwestern portion of the Town, and surrounding existing major developments and commercial areas. The Town's future growth holds the promise of positive change and increased opportunities for its residents. As new businesses emerge and existing ones expand, job opportunities are expected to grow, contributing to a more robust local economy. As the Town's population and developments continue to grow, increased demand on roadways highlights the need for strategic infrastructure development. Projected Socioeconomic Conditions Over the past decade, Marana has experienced an average population increase of nearly 1,900 per year! Forecasting future socioeconomic conditions allows the Town to anticipate changes in future travel demand and to envision potential solutions. Future population, housing units, and employment are quantified by PAG into Traffic Analysis Zones (TAZs) for the PAG Travel Demand Model. TAZs are geographic subdivisions of the study area bounded by roads, political boundaries, and natural and man-made geographical constraints (such as rivers, washes, etc.). Building off the PAG Travel Demand Model, the Arizona Office of Economic Opportunity (OEO) population projections, and development plans in the Town, a multi -step process was used to determine long-term population and employment projections for the Marana Planning Area. Table 3-1 shows a tabular summary of the projected population and employment within the Marano Planning Area boundary. It is important to remember that the Marana Planning Area is much bigger than the current Town limits and therefore, the population projections are higher than those estimated by the Arizona Commerce Authority, which estimates projections for the current Town limits. Table 3-1.

The primary purpose of forecasting future traffic volumes is to estimate the travel demand added to existing roadways and to forecast congestion levels due to projected growth in population and employment. This analysis also provides valuable insight into potential transportation solutions. The following section presents corridor traffic volumes and levels of congestion if no roadway improvements are made (No -Build). To be consistent with Pima Association of Government's ongoing 2055 Regional Mobility and Accessibility Plan (RMAP), the year 2055 was chosen as the long-term horizon year for the Marana TMP. Figure 3-2 illustrates the Level of Service for the long-term planning horizon if no roadway improvements are made by the long-term (2055) horizon year. As more people move in and the town grows, the increased traffic is expected to make roads less efficient and slower. If no roadway improvements are made, the following corridors are expected to operate at LOS E or worse: • Orange Grove Road east of 1-10 • Ina Road • Silverbell Road south of Coachline Boulevard • Cortaro Road east of Silverbell Road • Hartman Lane • Camino de Oeste north of Cortaro Farms Road • Camino de Oeste north of Tangerine Road • Twin Peaks Road east of 1-10 • Thornydale Road • Avra Valley Road • • . . • • . • Sanders Road between Avra Valley Road and Moore Road Tangerine Road Moore Road west of 1-10 Sandario Road north of Barnett Road Marana Road east of Wentz Road Adonis Road north of Tangerine Road Pinal Airpark Road Portions of 1-10 Frontage Road 38 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 115 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 PRnal A rpark Ironwo: National Mc 1-10 Frontage Roads are owned and maintained by Arizona Department of Transportation but are mapped to illustrate local connectivity and access.

This chapter represents the voices, ideas, needs, and challenges of hundreds of Marana residents. Project Website In order to ensure that the public had easy access to important information about the Marana TMP a project website was developed and hosted on the Town's server at https://www.maranaaz.gov/transportation-master-plan. The project site included document links, survey links, and a way to sign up for the project mailing list. Spreading the Word To provide opportunities for the public, planning partners, and stakeholders to participate in the planning process, the TMP included: • Interactive workshops were conducted with stakeholders, regional partners, and the Town Council to gather feedback on current issues and draft recommendations. • KOLD 13 News featured the Marano TMP on March 30th, 2023, and informed the public about the project and encouraged viewers to participate in the survey by directing them to the project website and MAP COMMENTS online survey. 233 PROVIDED • A project specific booth was hosted at Concert in the Courtyard and Camping Under the Stars. • Social media posts and e-mail blasts were distributed to direct community members to the project website.

A well -managed roadway system includes capital construction, maintenance, and operation of the roadway system. Based on feedback from the community, input from our committees, and data analysis, the TMP developed a set of project recommendations to better move vehicles and people. This chapter focuses on roadway and intersection projects, including projects to improve local and regional circulation, mobility, and goods movement. It is important to recognize that recommendations in the TMP represent the identified project needs only and are NOT projects ready for implementation. Each project should go through the traditional project development process - which includes public and stakeholder outreach, preliminary engineering, Council approval, project programming, design, and construction. Roadway Improvement Project Types Recommended TMP projects include a variety of project types that combined create a transportation system that helps to improve safety and mobility for everyone. Recommended projects include investments in the following types of projects: Traffic interchange and frontage road projects to improve local and regional circulation. Major maintenance projects to address critical infrastructure concerns. Roadway capacity projects that include roadway widening, extensions, and new roads. Intersection projects to improve congestion and safety issues. The following sections identify the recommended roadway improvements and a phased implementation plan. The actual implementation of these improvements will depend on several factors, including available funding and development patterns. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 125 of 580 48 September 3, 2024 Marana Transportation Master Plan Project Identification, Evaluation, and Prioritization Process To evaluate the projects, the TMP study team utilized a multi -step screening process as illustrated below: ( STEP 1. COLLECT A UNIVERSE OF IDEAS The study team gathered project ideas, including recommendations from previous plans, the current Capital Improvement Plan (CIP), new suggestions from the public and stakeholders, ideas from Town staff, and results of data analysis to create a universe of potential projects to address the transportation system issues, gaps, and deficiencies identified during the existing and future conditions analysis. lilSTEP 2. EVALUATE PROJECTS Identified projects were evaluated and t assessed based on: * * * TMP GOALS AND OBJECTIVES How well the project addressed the goals and objectives of the TMP. BENEFITS AND ISSUES ADDRESSED The project benefits and ability to address critical and long-term issues and needs. COST AND FEASIBILITY OThe level of cost and constraints associated with the project that may determine how quickly the project can be constructed. STEP 3. DETERMINE PRIORITY/PHASING Projects evaluated in Step 2 were prioritized into three phases: Short -Term Horizon (Y2O24 to Y2U3O) Projects that help achieve the goals of the TMP that the Town should consider implementing within a 1 to 6-year timeframe. Mid -Term Horizon (Y2031 to Y2040) Projects that help achieve the goals of the TMP but may not be needed in the immediate future or may be too expensive to find funding in the short-term horizon. Long -Term Horizon (Y2041 to Y2055) Projects that help achieve the goals of the TMP but have a major cost or other constraints or may help address long- term development. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 126 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 49 TRAFFIC INTERCHANGE IMPROVEMENTS Table 5-1 and Figure 5-1 show the recommended traffic interchange (TI) improvements. All TI projects that are described as "Reconstruction" or "New TI" include grade separation with the UPRR. The ID number merely serves as an identification number to track the project going forward. It does not represent an implementation priority. Some of the TI improvements/reconstruction may not be needed if other dependent projects are implemented. Detailed Project Sheets are located in Appendix A. Table 5-1.

Realign with Tangerine Farms Road Extension. Crossing at UPRR remains at -grade. 9 Cortaro Road / 1-10 TI Reconstruction The project would include construction of a grade separated interchange over 1- 10 and UPRR; widen Cortaro Road to six -lanes at the TI from Arizona Pavilions Drive to Hartman Lane; entrance and exit ramps, access roads, culverts, pedestrian walkways, bike facilities, and related infrastructure; installation of traffic signals and safety systems; purchase of additional right of way. Mid -Term 3 Moore Road / 1-10 TI New TI New traffic interchange at I-10 and Moore Road extension to Adonis Road 34 Tangerine Road /1-10 TI Reconstruction Reconstruction Reconstruct TI to include grade separation over 1-10 and UPRR; widen Tangerine Road to six -lanes at the TI. Tangerine Road TI reconstruction is ideally needed in the short- to mid-term phase to accommodate the planned developments on both sides of 1-10 along Tangerine Road. If Moore Road TI is in -place before the full Tangerine Road TI reconstruction, then the Tangerine Road TI reconstruction may be delayed to Tong -term phase. Long -Term 21 Tortolita TI between Pinal Airpark TI and Marana Road TI New TI Construct a new TI to support Tortolita area developments. Exact location of TI should be determined in coordination with ADOT to conform to TI spacing requirements. 22 Pinal Airpark Road / 1-10 TI Reconstruction Reconstruct Pinal Airpark TI to a full diamond TI and connect to Adonis Road on the east side. TI design should allow for continued access for the community along Missile Base Road via a two-way Frontage road on the east side. 35 Marana Road / 1-10 TI Reconstruction Reconstruction Reconstruct TI to include grade separation over 1-10 and UPRR; widen Marana Road to six -lanes at the TI. 43 Avra Valley Road /1-10 TI Reconstruction Reconstruct TI to a full access interchange. 50 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Marana Transportation Master Plan rx FIGURE 5-1 TRAFFIC INTERCHANGE 101PROVEPIENTS Pinal Airpark Rd Hardin Rd Marana Rd El Tiro Rd Traffic Interchange Projects • • • Short -Tenn Mid -Term Long -Term Study Network River.

Currently, Marana's frontage road system configuration along 1-10 varies. Some sections are two-way roads with one - lane in each direction and other sections include a one-way road with two -lanes. This inconsistency limits circulation. The Marana TMP recommends converting the frontage road system to a one-way, two-lane frontage road system throughout the 1-10 corridor. To convert the frontage road system, a phased approach is recommended, leveraging TI improvement projects as discussed in Table 5-2 and Figure 5-2. Appendix A includes Detailed Project Sheets illustrating the proposed improvements to create the one-way, two-lane frontage road system.

Marana's Public Works department manages a Pavement Preservation program to address regular preservation activities for the Town's roadway network. Very few roadways in Marana were found to be in poor condition. For the TMP, pavement related improvement projects only focused on large rehabilitation projects that are more complex in scope and implementation than regular maintenance activities. Table 5.3 and Figure 5.3 outline major pavement rehabilitation projects on the study network.

Capacity related improvement needs, such as widening existing roadways and constructing new roadways, were evaluated to identify potential projects to alleviate existing or projected traffic congestion. Roadway capacity projects were evaluated and prioritized using the following steps: • Utilized the existing conditions level of service (LOS) analysis findings and the future no -build analysis findings to determine the horizon year range when a roadway segment would potentially exceed acceptable congestion levels. • Confirmed using the Pima Association of Governments' (PAG) regional travel demand model that the recommended projects addressed the congestion issues. • Categorized the projects into appropriate phasing horizon for implementation taking into consideration when the roadway segment would fail to operate at acceptable LOS level. Recommended Widening Improvements Table 5-4 and Figure 5-4 illustrates recommended capacity improvement projects. The ID number merely serves as an identification number to track the project going forward. It does not represent an implementation priority. Additional details for each project are provided in the Detailed Project Sheets. The Detailed Project Sheets are located in Appendix A. Appendix A also discusses the impacts of each project.

Marana recognizes the need for developing a complete network of multimodal facilities to provide space for people to walk, bike, and roll. To make walking and biking a viable travel option for travel in Marana, a complete, connected multimodal network that is comfortable and safe for people of all ages and abilities is needed. The following section outlines recommended multimodal improvement projects to create Marana's complete multimodal network. These projects include: • Pedestrian improvements that close sidewalk gaps, improve pedestrian crossing, and expand the pedestrian network. • Bicycle improvements which include adding on -street bicycle facilities. • Multi -use path improvements Multimodal Improvement Project Types Recommended projects include a variety of project types that combined create a connected system of sidewalks, paths, and trails to improve the safety and mobility of everyone. Recommended projects include investments in the following types of projects: Pedestrian improvements that improve neighborhood connections and accessibility. Bicycle and multi -use path projects to provide travel options and expand local and regional access. Transit recommendations to provide affordable and convenient local and regional travel options. 64 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Marana Tran: °nation Master Plan Project Identification, Evaluation, and Prioritization Process To evaluate the projects, the TMP study team utilized a multi -step screening process as illustrated below: STEP 1.

Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 142 of 580 September 3, 2024 65 RE COMMENDED SNARED USE PATH IMPROVEMENTS The recommended shared use path network creates a complete network connecting local and regional destinations and providing multimodal options across the Town. By addressing crossing and infrastructure gaps in the existing network first, the Town can see immediate benefits because the network is already in use. People who are using these paths today will immediately be able to travel further and to more locations, and new people may choose to use them due to increased comfort and connectivity. Once the existing network is complete, the Town can focus on providing new connections to key destinations. This will open the network up to a wider range of potential users and provide new transportation options in locations where people want to go.

Combined with Marana's extensive existing pedestrian network, the identified pedestrian projects create a more robust, connected, and comfortable walking network in Marana. Many of the projects identified in this section can be incorporated into regular roadway maintenance activities. Sidewalks on Collectors and Arterials Sporadic corridor and business development has caused small gaps in the existing pedestrian network, which creates a barrier to pedestrian travel. Filling in these gaps, and expanding the pedestrian network, has the potential to link thousands of people to jobs and provide choices for convenient travel by foot. Table 6-2 and Figure 6-2 illustrate recommended sidewalk improvements. Sidewalk Gaps on Local Roads As illustrated in Figure 6-2, there are numerous local roads that currently do not have a sidewalk present. Many of these sidewalk gaps are due to development patterns, location in unincorporated Pima County, and the desire of residents. Going forward, Marana should assess the desire for sidewalks on these local streets and strategically fill in gaps as needed. Bicycle Facility Improvements People who ride bicycles vary in their physical abilities, experience levels, and comfort level riding adjacent to motor vehicles. The identified bicycle network projects include closing gaps in the current network that limit a person's ability to bike to their destination. In addition, opportunities to expand Marana's bicycle network and create regional recreation routes were also identified. Many of the projects identified are on low -speed, low -volume neighborhood streets that may only require bike route designation to provide a welcoming environment for bicycling. Addressing all identified projects creates a robust bicycle network that provides a more comfortable riding experience for experienced bicyclists and low -stress options for children and those not as confident riding a bike. Table 6-2 and Figure 6-2 illustrate recommended bicycle facility improvements. Create Slow Streets with Traffic Calming To provide a low stress route for bicyclists, incorporate traffic calming elements along these corridors with low posted speed limits and traffic volumes to help create and maintain a more comfortable bicycling experience for people of all ages and abilities. Figure 6-2 illustrates potential slow streets that provide direct and convenient access to the wider regional bicycle network.

It is imperative to note that a detailed engineering assessment for each location is recommended to determine if a crossing or signalization is warranted and to confirm design treatments. Potential crossing facilities may include high visibility crosswalks and/or crossing aids such as a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (PHB) or traffic signals. As needed, there may also be scenarios where an overpass or underpass provides the greatest level of connectivity due to roadway conditions. Table 6-3 and Figure 6-3 illustrate recommended crossing improvements. Appendix A provides additional details on the recommended locations. Table 6-3. Recommended Crossing Improvement Projects ID Project Type Project Description • New Crossings Assessment Upgrade ACrossing Assessment • The Loop Shared Use Path Access Locations Paths These crossings represent locations where a potential new pedestrian and/or bicycle crossing may be needed to provide direct access to destinations or facilities. To complete the bicycle and pedestrian network, safe and comfortable crossings are needed to improve connectivity. It is recommended to perform an engineering evaluation at identified Low Stress Crossing locations to determine the need and feasibility of upgrading the intersections/crossings to incorporate signalization, bike detection, or other crossing treatments. These crossings are located along heavily used bicycle facilities today and may warrant upgrades to improve the safety and comfort for cyclists. It is recommended to perform an engineering evaluation at identified Low Stress Crossings locations to determine the need and feasibility of upgrading the intersections/crossings to incorporate signalization, bike detection, or other crossing treatments. To expand access to the Chuck Huckelberry Loop, additional trailheads were identified. These trailheads aid in expanding the reach of the Loop by providing additional access points for residents and long- distance riders to access facilities. In addition to the identified projects, all intersections along the complete bike network should be reviewed and analyzed to determine potential improvements to enhance pedestrian and bicycle safety and connectivity, including bike boxes at signalized intersections, pavement marking through intersections, curb extensions, bicycle detection, increased signal phasing time for pedestrian and cyclists, and protected intersections. 72 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Marana Iran nStortation Master Plan Ironwood Forest National Monument ▪ The Loop Trail Access Locations Paths • New Crossings Assessment Q Upgrade Crossing Assessment Recommended Shared Use Path Marana Parks and Recreation Master Plan Planned Shared Use Path Existing Facilities Existing Shared Use Path Existing On -Street Bike Facility or Trail Study Network River, Wash, or Canal - Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary Town of Marana 0 Town of Marana Planning Area Park, Open Space, or Golf Course n 2 ASource: sown of Marana.

As the Town continues to grow and densities increase, on -going assessment of local and regional public transit needs should be continually evaluated, including: • Coordinating with PAG and SunTran to maintain and enhance regional public transit service, including the need for new routes and park -and -rides; • Evaluating the potential to expand the current Neighborhood Shuttle and DAR to a microtransit service; and • In the long-term, developing a Marana Transit Master Plan to guide future transit improvements. Microtransit Service Microtransit is a type of public transportation which includes demand responsive scheduling, flexible routes, and a variety of vehicle sizes. When effectively implemented, microtransit allows agencies to provide a high level of service and make first -and -last -mile connections in areas where fixed -route transit is difficult to operate. Because of this, microtransit provides opportunities to expand beyond the core transit network to serve new areas and populations with limited transportation options. Benefits of a Microtransit Service: Microtransit can serve a variety of needs but is most effective when used as a complementary tool to the existing fixed -route transit, extending transit's reach into new areas, serving lower density areas, and/or providing first/last mile connections. By promoting ridesharing and optimizing routes, microtransit may reduce congestion on roads. Additional benefits of microtransit include: ✓ Adaptability: Mobility on demand is more responsive to changing travel patterns making it more flexible than fixed -route service. ✓ Moving More People: Microtransit has the ability to move a larger number of people, reducing single -vehicle trips. ✓ Accessibility: Accessible vehicles provide an inclusive service that can support (not replace) paratransit. Paratransit services often require several days advance notice to schedule a ride. Microtransit allows riders who require/desire accessible vehicles to live more spontaneously. ✓ Convenience: On demand and cash -free (payment through an app) service models improve convenience for some customers. ✓ Future Route Planning: Microtransit can be used to pilot service or route types and reach new markets, potentially paving the way for future fixed -route service. Challenges of a Microtransit Service: As the Town densifies, the development of microtransit may impact overall street design needs, particularly in locations with limited curb to curb space, high ridership stops, and along high volume/high speed roads. Additional challenges include: x Productivity: Trips may have fewer passengers per revenue hour than a traditional fixed -route service, making them very expensive to operate comparatively. This may be acceptable given program goals. x Coordination: Would require a partnership with Pima County to accommodate residents outside Marana town limits. 74 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Marana Transportation Master Plan x Technology: Learning and deploying new technologies (routing software, online ride -booking via an app) can be expensive and time consuming for riders and implementing agencies. x Awareness/Education: Lack of awareness of a new service or education on how to access a system can depress ridership and undermine a service's success. What Could Microtransit Look Like in Marana? Microtransit service provides a flexible, on -demand transit option within a designated service zone, similar to a ridesharing service. Service zones are designed so that regional trips are connected with the regional transit system. Vehicles, like passenger vans or minibuses, provide shared trips that reduce traffic and increase service efficiency. Proposed recommended zones in Marana are shown in Figure 6-4. Fares are typically low, usually similar to local bus fares. With a smartphone or web browser, riders can hail rides, pay their fare, and track their vehicle's location in real-time as shown on the right. As illustrated in Figure 6-4, it is recommended to first pilot a zoned microtransit service option within the existing Shuttle Service Area: • Avra Valley (Zonel/Red): Located in unincorporated Pima County, this condensed service area may reduce wait times and encourage ridership. The Town may consider implementing this as a curb -to -curb zone with "flag stop services". Flag stops allow passengers to board at their preferred location within the service area or at designated segments of the route. Flag stop services provide flexibility for passengers by allowing spontaneous boarding, although Dial -A -Ride passengers already aboard would be given priority. Additional service could be provided, as needed, to destinations between Trico Road and Sanders Road. • West of Downtown Marana (Zone 2/Blue): Service only provided on an as needed basis, due to limited destinations and low densities. • Downtown Marana (Zone 3/Yellow): This zone would provide connections to destinations in Downtown, the community parks, and the airport. Additional service could be provided, as needed, to destinations between Trico Road and Sanders Road. Seasonal: The zones may be expanded to each include the Pumpkin Patch during the most active seasons when demand is expected to be higher. The greater Dial -A -Ride (DAR)service area could be maintained to support larger east -west on -demand connections and to destinations outside of the proposed zones. First and Last Mile Connector: Sun Tran's route 413 connects Downtown Marana to the commercial areas east of 1-10 in Casa Adobes, including to the Tucson Premium Outlets and Pima College. The Town might consider conducting outreach in the community to assess awareness of the current DAR shuttle and if there is demand for a first/last mile connection to the route from the Downtown stop. Current ridership levels could depict lack of awareness of the existing DAR as a connection option or that the current service does not meet the needs of potential 410 route riders (e.g., if the shuttle is unreliable, passengers may miss their connection which is particularly crucial when the route is infrequent).

Additionally, with the increase of online shopping, the movement of freight is also evolving beyond traditional commercial vehicles and delivery trucks. To allow for the safe and efficient movement of freight, goods, and packages, our transportation network must operate effectively and reliably. Figure 7-1 illustrates the recommended freight network. The network is based on regional freight corridors identified in the 2018 PAG Regional Freight Plan, latest freight volume trends, and recent industrial and warehousing development trends in Marana. It is important to note that Marana currently does not have designated freight routes. Several roadway, TI, and frontage road projects recommended in Chapter 5 support the recommended freight network, and are listed in Table 7-1. Table 7-1.

Additionally, policies and standards along freight corridors to improve the safety of other modes should be considered. Along the freight network, consideration should be given to the following: Consider establishing policies, education, and enforcement programs related to engine braking zones, overweight/oversized vehicles, and restrictions. q �R Heavy trucks have specific roadway, turning, and pavement design considerations —especially at conflict points with transit stops and at intersections. Streets need to be designed to ensure lane widths and turning radii are designed with bicycle and pedestrian safety in mind, but do not prohibit freight movement. 78 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 155 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 CC El Tiro Rd O N 0 Recommended Freight Corridor Study Network River, Wash, or Canal Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary Town of Marana Town of Marana Planning Area Park, Open Space, or Golf Course z ASource: Town of Marana.

According to the Airport Master Plan, by 2035 the airport is anticipated to have 339 based aircrafts, increasing the airport's operations by over 41 percent. To accommodate future demand, the Airport Master Plan outlined the following recommendations: • Construct new air traffic controller tower - funded and under construction • Install Weather Reporting Equipment - funded and under construction • Reconstruct portions of the airport's pavement (West Hangar aprons) • Construct aircraft parking apron • Construct additional vehicle parking lot (East Hangar Apron) • Construct corporate terminal building (East Apron) • Construct airport maintenance facility/ Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting facility • Construct on -airport access road/parking lot to specialty aviation services complex • Construct additional T-hangars (East and West Hangar Apron) • Reconstruct Taxiway C • 0.25 acre land acquisition Figure 7-2 illustrates the recommended improvements. Chapter 5 of this plan includes two roadway projects (#1 1 Avra Valley Road widening and # 16 Sandario Road widening) that directly support traffic circulation around the airport. Please refer to Chapter 5 for additional project information about these roadway projects.

The completion of the Transportation Master Plan is the first of many steps that need to occur to realize Marana's multimodal transportation future. The TMP provides a starting point and tools to help developers, planners, engineers, and community advocates expand Marana's transportation system to meet the growing needs of the Town. To make the TMP vision a reality requires a comprehensive approach that includes policy, design, partnerships, and above all, dedication, and commitment by Marana staff. Integrate the TMP Incorporate TMP principals and recommendations into documents that guide daily decisions. Approve TMP Work Together Build upon partnerships developed during the TMP to promote and implement Marana's transportation vision. Seek Opportunities Identify strategic and cost- effective opportunities to implement TMP recommendations. 82 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 159 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan Get Projects Built After completing the planning and funding phases, the focus of implementing the TMP shifts to the design, funding, and delivery of projects. Pursue Funding Leverage local, regional, and federal funding sources to implement recommendations identified in the TMP. Track and Evaluate Annually evaluate and report the progress of the TMP. G3'= 0= Stay Committed The success of the TMP requires dedication, creative thinking, and collaboration by multiple Town departments and community partners. Town staff should remain committed to the overall vision and continue to better meet the traveling needs of the public. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 160 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 83 INTEGRATING THE TRANSPORTATION MASTER PLAN Integrating the TMP's guiding principles and strategies into documents, policies, ordinances, procedures, plans, and programs that guide daily decisions at the Town will be a crucial step in successfully aligning Town practices with the objectives of the TMP. This is how TMP principles become the default way of doing business: not an option or add -on, not something that we would like to do, but something that must be done. Achieve Consensus on Street Typologies The TMP developed a set of street typologies that provide the Town with context -specific design guidance for retrofitting existing streets or developing new corridors to create streets that are safe, convenient, and comfortable for everyone, whether they drive, walk, bike, or use transit. With a typology design process, streets with the same functional classification receive different design treatments based on the adjacent street context. The TMP street typologies apply to the design of new streets, both by the Town and by private developers, as well as to resurfacing and reconstructing streets. Marana's street typologies are provided in the Appendix. Approve the TMP The TMP lays the groundwork for strategic investments to protect, modernize, and enhance the quality of life for Marana residents, business owners, and visitors. It is recommended that Marana staff seek formal adoption by the Town. The adoption of the TMP enables Marana to better align internal planning and design efforts, as well as better compete for funding opportunities. While strategies may evolve over time, the TMP establishes recommended actions to achieve its overall transportation vision. Once adopted, this plan will provide: • A defendable document to implement flexible, context -sensitive street designs that fit the true needs of a roadway and neighborhood. • Long-range vision for complete and connected multimodal networks to guide development and decision making. • Coordination opportunities between different departments to identify overlapping priorities. • Guidance for future land use and infrastructure decisions. Find Champions As with any major undertaking, it is important to identify champions to guide and promote the successful development, implementation, and evaluation of the TMP. The task force should have a keen understanding of the importance of the TMP and should include representation from multiple departments, including Planning, Parks and Recreation, Public Works, Environmental, and Fire and Rescue. Key tasks for the champions include: • Serve as proactive leaders and cheerleaders to promote inclusion of TMP principles into daily activities. • Generate and consider ideas to improve mobility options. 84 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 161 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Institutionalize the TMP To create a culture that integrates TMP philosophies and principles, core documents need to be reviewed and updated to better influence planning, programming, project development, design, and operations on a daily basis. Table 8-1 lists the documents recommended to be revised to incorporate TMP findings and principles. A key early step during implementation will be identifying teams of staff within the responsible lead offices listed in Table 8-1 who will be tasked with championing and spearheading the update processes for each document. Table 8-1. Recommended Documents to Review Document Responsible Office Recommendations Marana Standard Details Speed Zone Map Subdivision Street Standards Manual Public Works • Modify functional classification of existing and future roadways to meet recommendations in the TMP. • Integrate a context -based, flexible approach that incorporates the street typologies developed in the TMP into the Town's street design guidelines. • Consider developing an approach for selecting design speed and target (travel) speed. • Update street design standards to include recommended width ranges and preferred widths for facilities. • Incorporate more discussion of how to consider, address, and balance the needs of all transportation system users based on context. • Update existing design standards and criteria for specific modes of travel to align with national best practices. General Plan Development Services and Public Works • Modify functional classification of existing and future roadways to meet recommendations in the TMP. • Incorporate place type definitions to guide land use decisions. • Incorporate context -sensitive design, street typologies, and recommended design approaches. • Discuss how development decisions impact transportation and land use and how corridors have different characters and needs. Parks and Trails Master Plan Park and Recreation and Public Works • Integrate TMP pedestrian, bicycle, and shared use path recommendations. Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 162 of 580 85 WORKING TOGETHER The recommendations identified in the TMP require multiple Marana departments and partner agencies to work together to plan, design, fund, deliver, and maintain Marana's transportation system. These coordination efforts vary in terms of project size, complexity, and need. The following outlines key roles for internal and partner agencies to bring the vision of the TMP to life. Roadway/ Pedestrian and Shared Use Intersection Bicycle Paths Land Use and Development PUBLIC WORKS Plans, designs, constructs, and maintains capital improvement projects within the public right-of-way.

When internal departments and our agency partners work together - the result is a community supported project that drives excitement and partnership. The following outlines approaches, ideas, and tools for creating a successful interdepartmental and interagency collaboration. R MOBILITY TASK FORCE Creating an interdepartmental team to guide projects from planning to construction is critical. A Mobility Task Force would meet at key project milestones and facilitate internal, on -going feedback, and coordination. DESIGN WORKSHOPS Design workshops and brainstorming sessions can be held at key project milestones. The ultimate goal of these interdepartmental meetings and workshops is to ensure that all departments understand potential trade-offs and to build consensus. PROJECT CHARTERS For key, multi -agency projects, a project charter can document a mutual understanding of a project and define the roles and responsibilities for planning and implementing a project. The Charter allows all project participants to work toward a common goal, and set expectations and standards for the project scope, budget, and schedule. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 164 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 87 SEEK OPPORTUNITIES The TMP creates a new vision for streets in Marana, spurring numerous transportation improvement needs. These needs include restriping and retrofitting streets, safety improvements, new streets as part of new development, and additional planning studies. Funding availability limits the number of transportation projects that can be built at once. To ensure that projects that get built are aligned with the TMP's vision, Marana needs to focus on prioritizing projects to best serve the mobility needs of people in Marana. The following outlines opportunities to implement TMP principles in strategic, cost -effect methods. Pavement Preservation Program Marana's Pavement Preservation Program currently uses a condition -based pavement assessment system to apportion resurfacing projects equally throughout the Town. This program is an excellent mechanism to implement TMP principles and strategies to connect multimodal networks and to make streets more complete. Working with the Pavement Preservation Program is an opportunity to prioritize and integrate TMP recommendations in a cost-effective manner. During roadway restriping and resurfacing, the existing pavement could be restriped, or additional pavement could be added, to accommodate bike facilities, change lane widths, or add paved shoulders. This has several advantages in that it reduces the project costs through reduced mobilization and contracting costs, and it speeds the process since paving is already being provided. By not just restriping street to their current conditions, the Town can capitalize on opportunities to include bike facilities, narrower lanes, curb extensions, and conduct pilot projects. The following are examples of opportunities the Town should pursue for corridors currently in the five-year pavement management program: • Identify upcoming projects within the program and evaluate potential to integrate TMP principles by reconfiguring street cross -sections. • Corridors included in the bicycle network should be reviewed to determine available pavement space for installing bicycle facilities and wayfinding. • Streets located on the transit and pedestrian network should be reviewed to determine the need for crossing opportunities, sidewalks, ADA facilities, and other amenities to make walking more comfortable. • Review streets with four or more lanes and less than 30,000 average daily traffic for their potential for lane narrowing and roadway reconfiguration. Chasing Pavement Integrating TMP principles with programmed pavement preservation improvements is a cost-effective strategy to connect multimodal networks and make streets more complete. During roadway restriping and resurfacing, the existing pavement could be restriped to the recommended street typology design, accommodate bicycle facilities, and to incorporate safety measures. 88 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 165 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Roadway Reconstruction Projects The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) includes ongoing major maintenance and new infrastructure of streets, bridges, non - motorized facilities, stormwater, and technology. Roadway reconstruction projects provide an optimal time to incorporate TMP guidelines and principles. The following are an example of opportunities the Town should pursue for projects: • Review recommended projects list against the CIP to determine if there are additional project recommendations that can be incorporated into already programmed improvements. • Evaluate roadway reconstruction to integrate recommended TMP street typologies by reconfiguring street cross -sections. • Examine projects located on the bicycle network to determine available pavement space for installing bicycle facilities, wayfinding. • Streets located on the transit and pedestrian network should be reviewed to determine the need for crossing opportunities, sidewalks, ADA facilities, and other amenities to make walking more comfortable. • Review freight corridors to determine lane width and safety needs. Demonstration Projects Reconfiguring roadways and public spaces can help calm traffic and achieve more walkable-, bikeable-, and activity -oriented places. But permanent, large-scale changes can be difficult to launch. "Pop-up" demonstrations and pilot projects use low cost, non- permanent materials (such as planters, spray chalk, cones, and flexible bollards) to temporarily reconfigure a street. Examples of projects where pilots or pop -ups are used include but are not limited to: • Lane reconfiguration • Curb extensions • Pedestrian refuge areas/crossings • Bike lanes (protected, buffered, conventional) • Pedestrian plazas and parklets • Traffic calming To implement TMP principles and design, Marana is encouraged to use pop-up demonstration and pilot projects to evaluate street design and traffic operations and for community members and Town leaders to experience how the street environment can be reutilized. For a pilot project to be successful, it is important to provide the community enough time to adjust to the proposed changes and incorporate input from the community early and often. In some cases, pilot projects may be better indicators than traditional traffic and design studies, which can be costly and may not account for the latest innovations in street designs. Even if the demonstration projects are not successful, they provide invaluable information for future implementations and could potentially spark long-term changes. Try Before You Buy "Pop up" demonstration and pilot projects use low-cost, non- permanent materials to "test before you invest." Marano Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 166 of 580 September 3, 2024 89 New Street Development The new road and development process and approval is an important avenue for implementing TMP principles, particularly in areas where redevelopment and new development is expected to occur. Policies and procedures should be updated to spell out new requirements for developers and property owners that support implementation of the TMP. Potential changes include: • Development plans that address how the design complies with modal neeeds, street typology design, land use context, and safety needs. • Regulations to require transit access in new developments. • Connectivity standards to provide mobility between neighboring developments. At a minimum, bicycle and pedestrian connectivity should be required. • Site review to ensure that sidewalks, bicycle facilities, and transit access are comfortable for users. • Aesthetic standards governing signs, building facades, and landscaping that can enhance the quality of the pedestrian environment. Designing for Vulnerable Users Prioritizing the safety and comfort of people who walk, ride bicycles, and use public transportation is a core component of the TMP. By prioritizing the most vulnerable users first, streets are safe for all users. The following are examples of opportunities to create a more walk- and bike -friendly environment for users: • Modernize and coordinate traffic signals, include adaptive traffic systems and transit signal priority. • Set the progression of signals on high crash corridors to manage traffic flow and establish vehicle speeds. • Identify and fund key intersections for signal timing improvements to separate pedestrian and bicycle crossings, vehicle turning movements, and prioritizing high crash intersections. • Test and incorporate passive pedestrian detection and bicycle detection at crossings. • At high pedestrian and bicycle usage areas, incorporate a "no -right -turn -on -red" policy. • Maintain landscaping to avoid obstructing bicycle lanes and sidewalks and blocking visibility • Install street lights to improve visibility, particularly on high -crash corridors, high pedestrian, and bicycle usage areas, at transit stops, and in disadvantaged areas. Design Streets for People Putting the safety and comfort of people first helps create a transportation system that works for all users - regardless of the mode they choose. 90 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 167 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 INVESTING IN MARANA Bringing the full vision of the Marana TMP to life will take significant on -going investments over the next 25+ years. Funding is the greatest challenge to implementing TMP principles as existing resources are not sufficient to fund all the transformative multimodal improvements proposed in this Plan. Although federal, state, and regional funds for transportation projects have increased over the last decade, the increase has not kept pace with the demand for funding and project cost inflation. This leaves jurisdictions to fill the gap in available funding with local sources, grants, and private sources. Key major federal and local funding opportunities include: 0 U.S. Department of Transportation Federal Highway Administration RAISE Grants RTA Regional Transportation Authority Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) On November 15, 2021, President Biden signed the $1.2 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) into law. The IIJA makes generational investments to repair the nation's roads and bridges, boost transit and rail funds, electrify vehicles, ensure broadband deployment, and modernize energy systems. Example grant programs that may be applicable for projects in Marana include: • Active Transportation Infrastructure Investment Program (ATIIP) • Airport Improvement Program (AIP) • Consolidated Rail Infrastructure and Safety Improvements (CRISI) Program • Infrastructure for Rebuilding America (INFRA) Grant Program • National Infrastructure Project Assistance (Mega) Program • Railroad Crossing Elimination Grant Program • Reconnecting Communities Pilot (RCP) Program • Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) Grant Program RAISE Grants Replacing the Better Utilizing Investments to Leverage Development (BUILD) grant program, RAISE grants are for projects that will have a significant local or regional impact, including multi -modal and multijurisdictional initiatives. With the passing of the IIJA, RAISE grant funding available increased to $1.5 billion. Regional Funding Sources The most flexible transportation funding available to the greater Tucson region is associated with the Regional Transportation Authority's countywide half -cent transaction privilege tax, approved by Pima County voters in 2006 for regional transportation projects. Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 168 of 580 September 3, 2024 91 GETTING PROJECTS BUILT When the policy, planning, and training elements are complete, the focus of implementing the TMP shifts to the design, funding, and delivery of projects that incorporate TMP principles. Moving a project from idea to reality is a multi -step approach that involves collaboration, consensus building, analysis, innovative thinking, and commitment from Marana staff. Steps to Get to Construction The project delivery process takes a project from idea to reality. While the implementation of the TMP includes a wide range of project types, each project generally follows a similar framework from concept to completion, as outlined below. a W 1- co a W 1- co a W 1- co a W 1- co 1 3 PROJECT SELECTION Use the TMP's goals and prioritized project list to identify projects for implementation. Clarify the overall goals and objectives for the project and program for funding. PROJECT SCOPING Conduct a site visit and research issues along the corridor. Based on findings, evaluate trade-offs within limited right-of-way and create preliminary alternative cross-section concepts, intersection designs, operational improvements, and safety measures. Incorporate a design workshop to integrate TMP Street Typologies guidelines. PILOT PROJECT Depending on the project type and scale, work with the community and stakeholders (i.e., Pima County, SunTran, developers, etc.) to pilot the project using low-cost materials. Collect before and after data and re-evaluate project objectives. CONSTRUCTION DESIGN Building upon draft concepts developed in previous steps, develop a final design concept that is agreed upon by the Town's planners, engineers, Town leadership, and maintenance staff. PROJECT CONSTRUCTION 0. During construction, address any problems that arise and allow for creative design solutions to 1- arise in the field. Remember ongoing maintenance preserves the Town's investment and N supports the travel of all users. 92 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 169 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Project Selection Using the prioritized project list in the TMP, undertake a comprehensive review of programmed improvements and projected funding to program priority improvements, studies, and plans. Step 1. Checklist of Actions ❑ Consult the TMP project list and compare against existing programmed projects in the CIP. As needed, alter programmed projects to incorporate recommendations from the TMP. ❑ Coordinate with the Town's Pavement Preservation Program to identify the street typology and preliminary design requirements for corridors programmed for preservation. ❑ Consult requirements outlined in ordinances, codes, zoning overlays, and regulatory plans. ❑ Collect and review data for right-of-way width, safety, current allocation of space, existing and future volumes, truck volumes, speed, and multimodal conditions. Project Scoping Step 2 is an iterative process that weighs trade-offs and choices to develop alternatives for the street design within the available right- of-way. When designing streets, the Town should consult national standards and guidelines for the most up-to-date innovations and best practices. The Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), National Association of Transportation Officials (NACTO), and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) have a wealth of resources and reports to reference for current design standards. In addition, cities across the United States could serve as models for how to design safe streets for all users. Step 2. Checklist of Actions ❑ Confirm the project objectives, modal needs, street design needs, and safety improvement needs identified in previous steps and in the TMP. ❑ Conduct site visits, talk to stakeholders, perform a robust existing conditions data collection. ❑ Undergo a thorough feasibility review to account for Right -of -Way impacts, environmental constraints, design considerations, and detailed cost development. ❑ Develop preliminary design alternatives based on the street typology and priority street elements and needs. Difficult trade-offs may need to be made due to limited physical space available. Summarize specific safety issues, needs, and opportunities and update the design priorities to include safety measures. ❑ Conduct a design workshop with multiple departments to review and evaluate each design alternative and weigh trade-offs and design choices among the alternatives. Refinements to the street design should result from a thoughtful and collaborative discussion of trade-offs between competing uses on the street and the available right of way. ❑ Review and apply additional resources including specific design guidelines, construction standards, and best practices. ❑ Continue to refine the design alternatives as needed. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 170 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 93 Pilot Project "Pop-up" demonstrations and pilot projects use low cost, non -permanent materials (such as planters, spray chalk, cones, and flexible bollards) to temporarily reconfigure a street. Examples of potential projects include pedestrian plazas, protected bike facilities, curb extensions, crosswalks, lane narrowing, etc. These projects can include 30-day demonstration projects or longer -term pilot projects. Step 3. Checklist of Actions ❑ Confirm the project objectives, overall design concepts, street context, potential constraints, and overall goals of the pilot project. ❑ Establish a team of Town staff and community members that will spearhead the project. Identify one or more spokespeople that will handle interactions with the media, businesses, and residents. ❑ Conduct a pre -build site assessment, gather observational data, and collect counts. ❑ Develop a site plan, materials list, traffic control plan, installation schedule, marketing and engagement approach, budget, maintenance plan, and overall schedule for the project. ❑ Obtain any required permits and approvals to implement the project. ❑ Host an implementation event, where the project team cleans and prepares the site, and the pilot project can be implemented. Coordinate with the media to promote the events. ❑ Obtain user counts, community feedback, and gather observations to determine who is, who isn't, and how the pilot is being used. ❑ Monitor for maintenance or functionality issues and adjust the design as needed. ❑ Upon completion, clean up and restore the site. Construction Design The completion of all of the previous steps, including any additional public and stakeholder input, should provide the Town with the proper information to select the design alternative that best matches the context and needs of the street. Step 4. Checklist of Actions ❑ Finalize the preferred street design, including cross -sections, multimodal elements, and streetscape details. ❑ Consider emergency services, operations and maintenance, and utility design constraints. ❑ Engage community stakeholders in the design process to ensure the project is responsive to community desires and provide regular updates during the construction process. ❑ Include documentation of agreement and approvals for operations and maintenance agreements. ❑ Secure funding and program improvement in the Capital Improvement Plan. 94 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 171 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 TRACKING AND EVALUATING Performance measures help track the TMP's progress and effectiveness over time. The simple framework included in the TMP will help the Town better align transportation investment decisions with tangible and measurable benefits. Table 8-2 outlines suggested performance measures to assess the success of the TMP, track changes in the built environment, identify trends in travel behaviors, and provide performance information to decision -makers.

STREET TYPOLOGIES Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 270 of 580 q. 1 TOWN OF MARANA A context -sensitive approach for designing Marana's streets Page Intentionally Left Blank Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 27 September 3, 2024 Town of Marana Street Typologies The Street Typologies build on Marana's existing design standards to provide a flexible approach for designing new streets and reconfiguring existing streets. The recommendations present a long-term vision for Marana's streets and do not necessitate the reconstruction of roadways. As existing streets are reconstructed or resurfaced and as new streets are developed, both by the Town and private developers, recommendations presented in the Street Typologies should be incorporated. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 273 of 580 September 3, 2024 Why Street Typologies? Cities and towns across the United States use functional classification systems to organize their streets into arterials, collectors, and local streets. The functional classification system defines a street's role in moving cars within a larger network, considering the balance between `mobility'— the street's ability to move cars— and `access'— the ease with which cars can access adjacent streets and property along the road. For example, arterial streets provide higher levels of mobility for cars but lower levels of access to abutting land. As Marana continues to grow and expand, its streets must adapt so that people of all ages and abilities and using all modes have access to complete networks that enable them to safely, conveniently and comfortably travel across the Town. Marana must also ensure that newly built roadways serve the intended purposes based on planned land uses. Marana Towntounci r Meeting Agenda Packet Page 274 of 580 epte13, 2024 Town of Marana Street Typologies What Are Street Typologies? Street Typologies provide context -specific design guidance for retrofitting existing streets or developing new corridors to create streets that are safe, convenient, and comfortable for all users, whether they drive, walk, bike, or use transit. Typologies provide additional guidance to help develop streets that are responsive to the local context and needs of the adjacent land uses. Street Typologies also provide a process to determine and implement the proper roadway cross section despite competing needs, or limited right-of-way, to achieve outcomes consistent with the values stated above. Marana's Street Typologies work hand -in -hand with the Town's existing engineering standards and the General Plan to help deliver the Town's vision for transportation. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 275 of 580 September 3, 2024 Applying Street Typologies in Marana Marana's Street Typologies are organized by 1) the Town's roadway functional classification, and 2) surrounding street context. The General Plan's land use categories were consolidated to create four land use street contexts. In total, there are 12 Street Typologies, each a unique combination of functional classification and land use street context. Not every functional classification runs through all street contexts. Functional Classifications • Arterial • Collector Local Surrounding Street Context ci O Rural/Low-Density Residential Suburban Residential Commercial/Activity Center Employment/Industrial Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 276 of 580 September 3, 2024 Town of Marana Street Typologies Using Street Typologies The Street Typologies apply to the design of new streets, both by the Town and private developers, as well as projects where the Town is conducting significant work on existing streets (e.g., resurfacing, reconstruction, utility work). Taking advantage of opportunities when work is already being conducted within the right-of-way to implement street enhancements is an efficient pathway to upgrade Marana's streets. Applying the Street Typologies can help streamline and systematize these improvements. A traditional street design process typically involves applying just the standards for the appropriate functional classification. With a typology design process, streets with the same functional classification receive different design treatments based on the adjacent land use street context, modal priorities, and surrounding context. The flow chart below demonstrates how the typology design process can be used in conjunction with the Town's existing standards through coordination and collaboration across staff and other stakeholders, if deemed necessary, based on project impact and scope. Project Initiation • 1. Identify Street Context Determine the street's functional classification, land use street context, and whether it is part of the recommended bike or freight networks in the Transportation Master Plan. Preliminary project goals and priorities 2. Develop Base Street Layout Use Marana's Engineering Standard Details and Subdivision Street Standards to establish the street's baseline cross section based on its functional classification. Base street cross section 3. Community + Stakeholder Input Engage with community members and stakeholders to identify local priorities and key issues for the street. Updated project goals and priorities Move to Final Design • 4. Street Typologies Design Workshop Conduct a design workshop with staff and key stakeholders to identify additional street design elements or enhancements using the process and guidance from the Street Typologies.

Based on the Street Typology, most design elements have a preferred dimension and a range of allowable dimensions. Vehicle Zone Vehicle Travel Lanes: The total number of vehicle travel lanes will be based on existing and anticipated future traffic volume demands. Right -sizing the number of lanes helps avoid costly over -building, excessive impermeable paving and long pedestrian crossing distances. Travel and Turn Lane Width: Right -sizing travel lane widths keeps traffic moving while also encouraging appropriate speeds and keeping pavement to a minimum. Median Width: Wider medians can provide space for plantings and pedestrian refuge at crossings. Each typology includes recommendations on median type. Bikeway Zone Bicycle Facility Width: Ideally, bicycle facilities (on -street and off-street) have sufficient width for two cyclists to travel alongside each other and for other cyclists to comfortably pass. This allows cyclists of all abilities and speeds to travel comfortably and confidently. Bike Facility Buffer Width: On -street bike facilities with speed limits higher than 35 mph or traffic volumes over 5,000 daily vehicles would benefit from buffer space. Physical separation may also be desirable within the buffer space. Pedestrian Zone Sidewalk Width: Wider sidewalks, especially in areas of higher pedestrian traffic, allow multiple people to walk comfortably alongside each other and let others pass. Near parks, schools and commercial areas, wider sidewalks also facilitate high -quality public gathering space. Landscaped Buffer Width: Providing a landscaped buffer between vehicle lanes and people walking/ bicycling creates a more comfortable experience and provides space for shade trees. Landscaped buffers are also important to separate pedestrian and bike facilities. Designing for wider medians can accommodate plantings as well as turn lanes. A wide shared -use bikeway allows plenty of room for passing bicycles and for pedestrians. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 280 of 580 September 3, 2024 Town of Marana Street Typologies Flex Zone Flex zones are zones near the curb of Collector streets that are not just for vehicle parking an unloading, but can be re-reimagined for more dynamic functions based on adjacent land uses that change throughou the day, seasons, or even years. Additional Guidance Target Vehicle Speed: Roadways and signal timing should be designed to influence a target vehicle speed on the corridor. Traffic Calming: Each typology includes design solutions/guidance to keep vehicle traffic traveling at safe speeds. Surrounding Context The urban design immediately adjacent to street right-of-way can have a significant impact on the experience of street users, especially people walking and cycling. Zero -lot lines, building facade elements, front porches, rear parking lots and commercial uses with direct sidewalk access can all enhance the adjacent street space. Flex zones allow for curb lanes to fill many uses, including, for instance, bike share docks. Providing ample shade coverage within the right- of-way improves pedestrian comfort. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 281 of 580 September 3, 2024 Bicycle Facility Types The quality of bike infrastructure matters as simply striping a bike lane on any corridor can be a missed opportunity to build out a low -stress/ high comfort bike network that serves all users and all abilities. The Street Typologies outline a set of preferred and applicable bike facilities, and their recommended dimensions, based on a street's classification and surrounding street context. Bike facilities may include: Bike Boulevard: Typically traffic calmed residential streets with low vehicle volumes and low speeds where motor vehicles and bicycles share the road space. Often referred to as Neighborhood Bike Routes or Neighborhood Greenways, Bike Boulevards use pavement markings, signs, and traffic calming elements to enhance safety and comfort for people on bicycles. Striped Bike Lane: Designate exclusive space for people biking through the use of pavement markings. Bike lanes are intended for one-way travel and are typically provided on both sides of two-way streets, and on one side of one-way streets. Conventional bike lanes may vary in width, but should be a minimum of 4 feet of rideable surface or 5 feet to curb face. Buffered Bike Lane: Provide additional horizontal separation between the bike and travel or parking lanes, increasing comfort and safety for people biking. Buffered bike lanes are preferred along streets with higher volumes and speeds, where conventional bike lanes may not adequately enhance comfort and safety for people biking. Buffers should not be overly wide to avoid unintended motor vehicle use for driving or parking. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 282 of 580 September 3, 2024 Town of Marana Street Typologies Protected Bike Lane: Protected bike lanes, also known as cycle tracks and separated bike lanes, incorporate physical, vertical separation from motorized traffic, parking lanes, and adjacent walking facilities. Physical separation varies and includes flexible post delineators, raised medians, landscaped medians, grade separation, or by another physical object (such as a bike rail or other continuous barrier). This vertical element differentiates protected bike lanes from striped and buffered bike lanes. Shared Use Path: Designated shared use paths are bi-directional paths for non -motorized uses. They may run fully separated from a road are directly adjacent to streets as a sidepath. These facilities may include separated lanes for people walking and biking or mix all modes together, and they may also include an adjacent unpaved path to accommodate equestrian use. These facilities offer network connectivity outside of the roadway network and are usually located in parks, along rivers, canals, greenbelts, or utility corridors.

Arterials move the largest volumes of vehicles but also have substantial right-of-way that can be used to separate people walking and biking from vehicle traffic. Space should also be allocated for street lighting and wide medians with landscaping. Many arterials serve as major transit routes, so enabling efficient transit service and access to transit are important goals. Additionally, arterials also provide access for trucks and heavy vehicles to access industrial and warehouse areas. On arterials, minimizing conflicts between modes and at intersections is critical.

Residential properties are typically separated from the road by a privacy wall. Because vehicles travel at relatively high speeds, providing space between vehicles and pedestrian and/or bicycle facilities is a top priority. Many existing major arterials have ample space to separate modes and increase comfort for those walking or biking.

High Visibility Crosswalks (A): At arterial crossings, high visibility crosswalks are recommended. It is important to note that crosswalks on arterials should be developed in conjunction with other treatments, such as signalization, beacons, etc. Pedestrian Signals: Leading pedestrian intervals and automatic pedestrian signals are recommended near schools, parks, and areas with significant numbers of people walking. Mid -Block Crossings: Mid -block crossings can be used to create direct connections between neighborhoods and important destinations for people walking, such as parks, playgrounds, and schools. Because of the speeds and volumes on arterials, signals or pedestrian hybrid beacon crossings (B) are needed to create safe mid -block crossings. Traffic Calming Guidance Additional design tools may be needed to ensure speeds are safe for all street users on arterials. Planted Center Medians (B): Planted center medians narrow the field of vision for drivers and can result in slower vehicle speeds. Signal Coordination: Signals should be timed to enable the progression of vehicles traveling at the speed limit and to disincentivize speeding. Speed Feedback Sign: Speed limits may be lowered adjacent to parks, recreation areas and open spaces, and speed feedback signs help remind drivers that they are passing at or through a slower travel zone. Narrow Travel Lanes: Reducing the width of travel lanes requires more cautious driving and can reduce vehicle speeds. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 292 of 580 Town of Marana Street Typologies Bicycle Guidance Arterials typically provide direct connection to key destinations and require enhanced bicycle facilities. Shared Use Path (D): Should be applied where high bike and pedestrian usage is anticipated and where very limited crossings (driveways and intersections) are present. Buffered Bike Lane (E): If a protected bike facility is not feasible, an on -street lane with a buffer may be applicable. Protected Bike Lanes (F): One- or two-way bicycle -only paved paths on each side of street with protection between them and the street. They should be used in areas of higher bike and pedestrian activity. Trail Crossings: Where trails cross arterials, consider a raised center median to slow vehicles and create a two -stage crossing for bicyclists. Trail crossings may also benefit from user - activated Pedestrian Hybrid Beacons or Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (B). Median Guidance Arterials often have a raised median with left turn lanes. Design of the raised median should focus on visually narrowing the street, which slows traffic, and also provides pedestrian and bicycle refuge space for two -stage crossings. Green infrastructure can also be included in raised medians. It is important; however, to ensure that landscaping does not visually obstruct bicyclists and pedestrians from approaching motorists. Transit Guidance Transit shelters should be provided at every stop to offer protection from the sun and wind and a place to sit. Each stop should include information on the routes that service that stop and their schedules. Protected bike lanes and shared use paths are recommended for streets with transit stops to prevent conflicts between the bicycle and the transit vehicle. For on - street bike facilities, clear markings should highlight conflict area. 21 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 293 of 580 September 3, 2024 Page Intentionally Left Blank 22 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 294 of 580 September 3, 2024 - ... . ,• - --Ilw .-- f •••• • s' :" c:.-. i i t ; • ---• )4. ....41, 40; *• : . . . ,„-1- • ri. -' • : ...

Many trips on collectors are shorter, making walking and biking more feasible. Collectors should be designed for moderate vehicle volumes and lower speeds. Combined with high -quality sidewalks and bike facilities, enhanced landscaping, furniture, and shading, collector streets can be attractive corridors for walking and biking. In some locations, collector streets may include flex zones.

High Visibility Crosswalks (A): High visibility crosswalks are recommended. Pedestrian Signals: Leading pedestrian intervals and passive pedestrian detection are recommended near schools, parks, and areas with significant numbers of people walking. Mid -Block Crossings (B): Should be used to create direct connections between neighborhoods and important destinations for people walking, such as schools and commercial centers. Raised crosswalks (C), rectangular rapid flashing beacons, and clear signage (including in -street `yield to pedestrian' signs) can all help pedestrians navigate mid -block crossings. Traffic Calming Guidance Keeping traffic speeds low is essential to create a safe, attractive environment for people walking. Roundabouts and Mini Roundabouts: Circular intersections with raised center islands designed to slow vehicles without impacting traffic flow. Roundabouts have been shown to significantly reduce serious crashes. Chicanes: Introducing a slight "s" curve into the street encourages drivers to reduce their speed. Chicanes can be created by alternating the flex zone/on-street parking from one side of the street to the other, using temporary, low-cost materials, or by constructing concrete curb extensions that can include green infrastructure and landscaping. Narrow Travel Lanes: Reducing the width of travel lanes requires more cautious driving and can reduce vehicle speeds. Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 302 of 580 Bicycle Guidance Protected Bike Lane (D): One- or two-way bicycle -only paved paths on each side of street with buffers between them and the street. They should be used in areas of higher bike and pedestrian activity. Buffered Bike Lane (E): Recommended if there is not space for protected or off-street facilities. Shared Lanes: If space is constrained and vehicle volumes and speeds are low (less than 5,000 vehicles per day with 30 mph or lower), a shared lane can be used. Crossings (F): Where bike routes on collector streets cross major streets, special treatments should be incorporated to enhance the safety of the crossing, such as speed tables, refuge islands, and rectangular rapid flashing beacons. Median Guidance If traffic and turning volumes dictate that a center turn lane is necessary on collector streets, it is recommended that a center turn lane is implemented in conjunction with a raised planted median, creating median openings where turning volumes dictate. Raised planted medians visually narrow the street, which slows traffic, and also provide pedestrian and bicycle refuge space for two -stage crossings. It is important; however, to ensure that landscaping does not visually obstruct bicyclists and pedestrians from approaching motorists. Flex Zone Guidance Flex zones in Marana may be applicable at select locations where surrounding development may benefit from a shared space that can be used for multiple purposes, such as time of day commercial deliveries, on -street parking, transit buses, ridesharing, etc. The amount of space dedicated for parking and loading should be based on anticipated usage. 31 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 303 of 580 September 3, 2024 Page Intentionally Left Blank 32 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 304 of 580 September 3, 2024 arana Town Council Regutar Me - September 3; zei2 • Locals Local streets provide direct access to residential areas, businesses, and other destinations.

Crosswalk Type: High visibility crosswalks with additional treatments are recommended at major intersections, near schools and parks, and at locations with high pedestrian and bicycle usage. Traffic Calming Guidance Additional design tools may be needed to ensure speeds are safe for all street users on local streets. Raised Crosswalks (A): Elevates crosswalk to sidewalk level. Cars must ramp up to move through, slowing vehicles and signaling pedestrian priority. Raised Intersection: Elevates entire intersection to sidewalk level. Cars moving through the entire section must slow down, reinforcing pedestrian priority. Chicanes (B): Introduces a slight "s" curve into the street that encourages drivers to reduce their speed. Chicanes can be created by alternating the on -street parking from one side of the street to the other; using temporary, low-cost materials; or by constructing concrete curb extensions that can include green infrastructure and landscaping. Traffic Circle (C): Guides vehicles through an intersection around a central island, forcing vehicles to slow down. Traffic circles can incorporate landscaping to further improve neighborhood livability and can be installed using low-cost, temporary materials or constructed with concrete for a permanent installation. 40 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 312 of 580 Vehicle Deflection (D): Creating a change in height on the roadway surface forces drivers to slow down. Speed humps, speed cushions, speed tables, and raised crosswalks and intersections can all be used to introduce this vertical change and slow drivers. Bicycle Guidance Local streets provide calm routes for people biking and, with some additional improvements, can be transformed into high -quality routes for people of all ages and abilities. Shared Lane Markings (E): Shared Lane Markings may be used to reinforce that people biking and driving share the lane, and indicate the proper riding position for people biking. Crossings: Designs for crossings with bicycle facilities should reduce conflict between bicyclists (and other vulnerable road users) and vehicles by heightening the level of visibility, Treatments such as crossing markings, signage, refuge islands, and pedestrian hybrid beacons (F) may be warranted. Network Connectivity To maintain network connectivity, barriers to access should be avoided. Multimodal connections from planned communities and cul-de-sacs to other roads and trails are encouraged.

Marano is changing - more people and businesses are moving here every day, and the mobility needs of our residents are increasing. To provide our residents, visitors, and businesses with a transportation system that works, we need to face our transportation future head-on. The Marana Transportation Master Plan will serve as a roadmap for improving how we use our transportation system so everyone can safely and comfortably drive, walk, bike, or ride. What Does the Transportation Master Plan Include? The development of the Transportation Master Plan starts with reviewing the current transportation system and developing a vision for what the Town's transportation system should look like in the future. The Transportation Master Plan reviews best practices and considers emerging trends to identify gaps in the system and future travel needs. Ultimately, the plan will develop a series of short-, mid-, and long-term improvements to address the growing multimodal needs of the Town. The following will be explored as part of this planning process: • Develop complete multimodal networks that fill in system gaps and provide a more connected and safer transportation system for all roadway users. • Explore transportation improvement solutions to enhance our community's quality of life, reduce traffic and congestion issues, provide comfortable travel options for all users, and better connect people to the places that matter to them. • Examine and rethink the design of our streets to prioritize moving people and goods more efficiently and safely. • Predict how well the transportation system will work in the future and suggest improvements. • Establish new goals and policies to guide decision -making. • Develop recommendations to address long-term, mid-term, and short-term, critical transportation needs. Marano Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 321 of 580 September 3, 2024 3 PLAN PROCESS The development of the Marana Transportation Master Plan will be a collaborative effort that brings together residents, the business community, regional and state partners, local stakeholders, and internal town departments to create a strategic transportation vision for Marana. The Plan's process includes listening, complex technical analysis, as well as coordination with concurrent planning initiatives and community partners. The multi -phased process includes the following steps: Evaluate Our System Today The Marana Transportation Master Plan assesses how people and goods are traveling in and through Marana, as well as the performance, safety, and comfort of the town's existing transportation network. The process provides a base for understanding the Town's transportation challenges and needs. Define the System We Want To move people and goods comfortably and conveniently, a complete network will be developed that prioritizes transportation modes along corridors so that collectively every mode has a complete and interconnected system. 1 Improvement strategies and policies will be developed to fill in Determine How We Get There system gaps, mitigate or manage congestion and safety issues, and incorporate emerging technologies. Study Network Streets are the physical backbone of Marana's transportation network and one of the Town's largest public assets. Marana's townwide street layout is predominately influenced by the surrounding natural and man-made factors including rivers, mountains, freeways, and railroads. In flat areas, the network follows a simple and efficient pattern. In other areas, street patterns deviate from the grid to bypass natural and man-made obstacles, creating a less efficient network. Developing a complete and connected multimodal network begins with identifying a wider transportation network of town roadways called the "Study Network." The Study Network served as the basis for analyzing the performance and function of the Town's transportation network. Figure 1-1 illustrates the Marana Transportation Master Plan's study network. 4 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 322 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 H Ironwood Forest National Monument -o cc Study Network River.

Most relevant to transportation is the Linear Park and Trail Element that includes a series of improvements, including: • Eliminating the gap in the Santa Cruz River Park at the Arizona Portland Cement Plant and extending the Santa Cruz River Park west of its terminus at Sanders Road. • Collaborate and support Pima County in the development of the Central Arizona Project (CAP) Trail and construction of the CAP Trail Bridge over 1-10 and the UPRR. • Complete the Tangerine Road Greenway and begin construction of the Barnett Greenway. • Develop additional trails within the Marana portion of the Tortolita Mountain Park, the Tortolita Preserve, the Tortolita Fan, the El Rio Preserve, and the Water Reclamation Recharge Basins. • Develop shared -use pathways (SUP) that run parallel along Moore Road, Camino de Oeste, Thornydale Road, Twin Peaks Road, Adonis Road, Avra Valley Road, Sandario Road, Sanders Road, High School Loop, Lambert Lane, Linda Vista Boulevard. In addition, create the new off-street shared -use paths San Lucas, Sanders Grove, and Canal West. Marana Airport Master Plan (2018) The purpose of the Airport Master Plan is to provide a pathway to develop the Marana Airport in a safe, efficient, economical, and environmentally sound manner. The plan recognizes the historic strong growth and continued planned growth of the area and the expectation of increased aviation activity. The plan recommends a unique strategy that would group the landside development of the airport into three complexes: a corporate complex, aviation complex, and specialty aviation complex to suit the growing and diverse demands of the area. Major airport upgrades are planned within the next 6-10 years including construction of a new parking lot, a new air traffic control tower, new taxi lanes, and reconstructing a taxiway. In the next 11-20 years, it is recommended to extend the existing runway and construct a new runway with a partial -parallel taxiway.

The Plan development considerations include accessible pedestrian walkways, bicycle transportation facilities, intermodal facilities, buses, bus facilities and commuter vanpool providers to meet the needs for the movement of people and goods in the region. PAG is currently in the process of developing a new long-range transportation plan to address regional transportation system needs over the coming decades. 2 4 0 5 Pinal County Comprehensive Plan 2020 (2019) The Pinal County Comprehensive Plan is a long-term planning document for Pinal County that was developed to help manage growth of the region, promote environmental stewardship, and ensure the economic vitality, health, and quality of life of its residents. The comprehensive plan considers land use, growth areas, cultural resources, multimodal circulation, economic development, open spaces and places, environmental planning, water resources, energy, housing, the cost of development, education, and the implementation of the planning vision. 410 Multimodal Circulation o Plan: Roadways Go Romell11. Min 8 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 326 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan PAG Long -Range Regional Transit Plan (2020) PAG's Long -Range Regional Transit Plan was developed to guide informed decisions that can enhance the public's ability to get around our region using public transportation. The plan focuses on a "frequency first" approach, consistent with PAG's 2015 Future Transit Vision and builds on the existing frequent transit network. The recommended strategies to improve transit service include offering consistent transit service seven days a week, improving evening service, expanding the frequent transit network, and creating targeted expansions to the suburbs including into Marana and Oro Valley. Short-term plans included adding a bus service with frequency every 30-minutes to Cortaro via Ina Road and adding bus service with frequency every 60-minutes from the Sun Shuttle route to Linda Vista and Marana to Tohono Transit Center. The goal is to offer more direct trips with reduced transfers for commuters heading to destinations in Tucson. Long term plans include the addition of a bus service with frequency every 15-minutes from Casas Adobes to Tohono Transit Center on Ina Road, Magee Pinal County Strategic Transportation Safety Plan p LONG-RANGE REGIONAL TRANSIT PLAN >, f4 Road, and North Oracle Road. cab *Wa Pinal County Strategic Safety Plan (2019) The Pinal County Strategic Safety Plan identified one major safety project within the Marana Planning Area. The intersection of Pinal Airpark Road and I-10 was determined to be a substandard interchange but did not qualify for Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) funding. It was recommended the interchange be addressed as other funding sources became available. PAG Regional Freight Plan (2018) The Regional Freight Plan reviews projects that already exist in other plans but are designated within the Regional Freight Plan as specifically contributing to freight movement within the area. The report emphasized the importance of the planned 1-10 east corridor improvements as the interstate connects the region to its most important trading partners including Los Angeles and Phoenix and serves multiple industrial, freight -generating areas in Pima County. Funding for 1-1 1 has not been identified but was recognized in this report as an important corridor that would directly connect Tucson, Phoenix, and Mexico to Las Vegas and —when fully realized —to Canada as part of the CANAMEX corridor. Non -interstate projects in the Marana Planning Area were also deemed important for freight movement including projects recommended for Avra Valley Road, Ina Road, La Cholla Boulevard, railroad grade separation at Cortaro Farms Road, Sandario Road, and Tangerine Road. Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 327 of 580 September 3, 2024 9 Pinal County Regional Transportation Plan (2017) The RTP includes 13 named roadway projects, allocations for local road projects in four communities, and $34 million for its Public Transportation Element, including existing transit operations, dial -a -ride services, and park -and -ride lots. This plan also includes funds for Pinal Regional Transportation Authority (PRTA) administration, accounting for about one percent of the total program costs. Over 90 percent of the total revenues would go to the 13 named roadway projects.

Newly developed properties located adjacent to major streets are required to comply with the plan. Future right-of-way widths vary from 80 feet wide for a typical collector street to 150 feet wide for a typical arterial street. PIMA 4 PROSPERS Pima County Pima Prospers Comprehensive Plan (2015) The Pima Prospers Comprehensive Plan was created over an 18-month planning period that included extensive community involvement and involvement with other jurisdictions. The intention of the plan is to align future budgets, capital improvement programs, and future bonding programs with the needs and goals of the residents of Pima County. The economic element section stresses the importance of supporting a north -south CANAMEX corridor and continuing to develop the 1-10 corridor focused on supply chain development, logistics, and cross -border opportunities. Pima Regional Trail System Master Plan (Adopted 2010, Updated in 2012 and 2015) The Pima Regional Trail System Master Plan is intended to serve as the guide for the development of the regional trail system in eastern Pima County. The Plan includes a vision for trails within the community including trails, paths, greenways, enhanced bicycle and pedestrian corridors, and bike boulevards. The Pima Regional Trail System Master Plan presents the master plan as a built -out network of trails that exist, need maintenance, and need to be built. 10 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 328 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Southern Pinal County Regional Corridor Study (2015) This study was prepared as part of the Arizona Department of Transportation Planning Assistance for Rural Areas (PARA) program to address existing and future multimodal travel demands in southern Pinal County. The study recommends adding additional road segments to make Baumgartner Road a continuous two-lane roadway from Sunland Gin Road to the 1-10 intersection with Park Link Drive. In addition, the report recommends expanding Pinal Airport Parkway past Pinal Airport and then connecting a new roadway from it to Coachway Road. These new roadways around the Pinal Airport Parkway could provide new opportunities to expand cargo airport services to and from the area for surrounding compatible industrial uses. The traffic interchange at Pinal Air Park Road could also be shifted to Mission Base Road.

Currently aviation activity is helicopter activity by the Arizona Army National Guard and other users of the Silver Bell Army Heliport. Fixed wing activity is dominated by maintenance, repair, and operation (MRO) services and parachute training and testing by the United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM). With the recommended improvements, Pinal Airpark hopes to increase general aviation activity in addition to the MRO services that are expected to grow. The plan also notes the interest and potential for the Airpark to support cargo operations. PAG Regional Pedestrian Plan (2014) The PAG Regional Pedestrian Plan provides a framework for achieving the region's vision for making a safe and walkable region for all residents. The driving vision behind the plan is to include "A region where people of all ages and of all abilities have the opportunity to walk in an environment that is safe, accessible, comfortable and well connected." Included in the plan is a full review of walking conditions in the region and a walkability toolbox. The Plan also identified locations within the Marana Planning Area that have sidewalk gaps, partial ramp access, lack of curb ramps, and other impediments to pedestrian access. While this list is not exhaustive of all pedestrian impediments and barriers, it is intended to serve as a guide to help each Jurisdiction develop its own pedestrian plans and prioritization for capital improvement programs.

The vision for the Regional Plan is to provide facilities that accommodate safer bike travel across the region and provide better access to activity areas, transit stops, schools, parks, natural resources, employment areas for those who ride bikes. Within the Marana Municipal Planning Area, the Plan identified a variety of gaps and improvements projects, including: a shared use path along Santa Cruz River Park from Ina Road to Curtis Road, gap closures on Tangerine Road, Thornydale Road, and Avra Valley Road. Pinal County Open Space and Trails Master Plan (2007) The Pinal County Open Space and Trails Master Plan was intended to function as the Open Space and Recreational Element of the prior Pinal County Comprehensive Plan (2001, amended 2007). The Pinal County Comprehensive Plan for 2020 (2019) is closely aligned with the Pinal County Open Space and Trails Mater Plan and plays a central role in guiding the development of the trail network. There are two major County Trail Connectors in the Marana Planning Area: the Santa Cruz River Trail and the Central Arizona Project Canal National Recreation Trail. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT STATEMENT Open Space and Trails ADOT 1-11 Interstate 11 Corridor Tier 1 Environmental Impact Statement (2021) The proposed 1-1 1 is envisioned as a multi -use corridor that would provide a connection from Mexico to the Hoover Dam, helping to improve Arizona's access to regional and international markets while opening new opportunities for enhanced travel, mobility, trade, commerce, job growth and economic competitiveness. The TIER 1 EIS evaluated multimodal alternatives to identify an environmentally preferable alternative that causes the least damage to the biological and physical environment and best protects, preserves, and enhances historic, cultural, and natural resources. While the evaluation phase of this high -priority and high - capacity transportation corridor has begun, funding for further studies, design and construction has not been identified.

Just as land use influences the transportation network, the transportation network influences land use. For example, a rural roadway next to farmland serves a different purpose than a roadway designed to connect residential communities to nearby freeways. Marana's Land Use Today • Residential Development (Single Family and Multi Family): 8.2% of land • Non -Residential Uses: 18.6% of land • Agriculture and Vacant Land: 71.7% of land Today, the Marana Municipal Planning Area is largely vacant land, with 56% of all land within the Municipal Planning Area characterized as vacant or undeveloped. With Marana's large land area and percentage of vacant land, there is the opportunity for growth and development in the future. Agriculture is the second largest land use in Marana today, comprising 15.5% of the total Municipal Planning Area. Commercial development is scattered throughout the Municipal Planning Area, mostly near existing residential development. The largest cluster of commercial development is located in the Town's southern area, along Ina Road and Orange Grove Road. Whereas industrial development is largely located in the central and southern areas of the Town. Figure 2-1 illustrates existing land uses in Marana from the 2018 General Plan Land Use Map. Development Trends Located on the fringe of the City of Tucson, Marana is in the middle of a growth surge, with a variety of new master planned communities and commercial developments planned or currently under construction. Much of this development has been converting open, vacant parcels into residential communities, retail shops, warehouses, and other commercial properties. Currently, there are over 40 Specific Plans for developments that have been adopted but not yet constructed. 16 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 334 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Pinal County Pima County L TIRO RD IRONWOOD FOREST NATIONAL MONUMENT VRA VALLEY RD Source Town of Marana. 2018 Pinal AUpark AL AIRRARK RD FIGURE 2-1 GENERAL PLAN 2018 LAND USE MAP SAGUARO NATIONAL PARK r TORTOLITA I I MOUNTAIN J -I ' �'1 PARK I Imo_—s `I1 LI SUNSET RD O VISTA BLVD I ARTHU PACK REGIONAL RK CORTARO FARMS RD IGE' INE Rr ORANGE GROVE RD RIvO Legend Existing Land Use Mai Agricultural Residential Single Family Residential Multi Family Commercial Airport Industrial Public/Institutional i• Open Space Parks and Recreation Rivers, Major Washes, and Drainage Basins Vacant/Undeveloped MI 1-10 Marana Planning Area r; f Marana Town Limits j County Boundary r f Other City/Town — Interstate — Major Road — CAP Canal River or Wash Airport Regional Park Matrix1 L a 0 34 1 2 3 4 5 Miles The Tern of Marana provides this map inlornubon "As Is" at the request oldie user with the understanding that is not guaranteed to be accurate. correct or compete and mnausrons drawn from such Information are the responsibility of the user In no event shall The Town of Marana become Lade to users of these data, or any other party, for any loss or direct, indirect, special, Incidental, or consequential damagesincluding but not limited to tune, money or goodwill, anvng from the use or modrI abon of the data Map Revised 26/2019 Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 335 of 580 September 3, 2024 17 WHERE WE LIVE Marana is growing rapidly, and while this creates opportunities, it also poses challenges to our transportation network. Understanding where growth is greatest is imperative to creating a plan that manages the increased demands on our transportation system. We Are Growing Since 1990, the Town's population has increased by 1,558% - making it one of the fastest growing areas in Arizona. A significant portion of this growth has occurred near the south-eastern border of the planning area approaching Tucson and adjacent to the 1-10. Master planned communities, such as Dove Mountain and Gladden Farms, have caused some of the highest densities in Marana. While significant portions of Marana and adjacent communities are slated for development, the majority of the community remains rural with less than 1,000 residents per square mile.

With over 14,280 people working in the Town today, Marana is one of the fastest growing job markets and economies in the Tucson metropolitan area. As illustrated in Figure 2-4, employment opportunities can be found throughout the Marana Municipal Planning Area. Major Employers Marana has a diverse economy. The top industries within Marana include: • Retail: 3,430 employees • Consumer Services: 2,450 employees • Education: 1,480 employees • Healthcare: 1,020 employees • Government, Social, and Advocacy Services: 980 employees As illustrated in Table 2-1, major employers include the Marana Unified School District, MHC Healthcare, and Sargent Aerospace & Defense. Employment Centers Major job centers are locations with a high density of jobs resulting either from a cluster of many different employers in a small geographic area or large individual employers with a high number of workers. Major job centers in Marana, as shown in Figure 2-4 include: • Downtown Marana • Pinal Airpark • Cortaro Road /1-10 • Ina Road, east of 1-10 • 1-10 Corridor Table 2-1 Major Employers in Marana Today Employers Employees Marana Unified School District 931 Pinal Airpark 382 Sargent Aerospace and Controls Marana Regional Airport (AVQ) MHC Healthcare Town of Marana Walmart 366 363 350 340 330 Costco Wholesale 300 Marana Aerospace Solutions FLSmidth Krebs Swire Coca Cola Frys Food Stores Home Depot Ritz Carlton, Dove Mountain • J ■ 300 260 250 200 200 150 Data illustrates an example of major employers in Marana today.

Utilizing the US Census Bureau's Longitudinal Employer -Household Dynamics (LEHD) OnTheMap application, regional commuting patterns can be identified. The portal is a nationwide database that reports where workers are employed and where they live. Table 2-2 shows the top places where Marana workers live. According to the LEHD, approximately 15.8% of Marana workers live within the Town. Nearly 54% of those that work in Marana live in Tucson or North Tucson. Although only just under 13% of Marana's daily trips are commute trips, 92% are done by driving. Not all jobs require commuting as 15.5% of workers living in Marana work from home. As illustrated in Figure 2-5, Marana exports more workers than they import or retain internally. This illustrates the regional nature of commuter patterns for Marana residents and workers, further described in Table 2-3 showing the top places where Marana residents travel to for work. Figure 2-6 and Figure 2-7 provide additional detail on commute patterns in Marana today.

Activity centers are made up of a variety of land uses such as shopping and retail, commercial, hospitals, or education centers among others. Understanding where key activity centers are located is imperative to developing a transportation system that conveniently connects major transportation generators through a variety of modes. Figure 2-8 illustrates major activity centers and transportation generators in the Town, including: • K-12 Schools. In total, there are 23 public, charter, and private schools in Marana. The Marana Unified School District serves approximately 13,000 students in ten elementary schools; a K-8 school; a CSTEM K-8 school; two middle schools; three high schools, and the Early Learning Resource Center. • Health Care Facilities. There are several major healthcare facilities within Marana including the Carondelet Marana Hospital, Northwest Emergency Center, and MHC Healthcare. It is expected that Tucson Medical Center will open a new medical facility near West Twin Peaks Road. • Commercial Centers. Big box stores like Walmart, Target, and Costco are located along 1-10. The major retail within Marana is along the Ina and Cortaro corridors. Commercial Centers such as The Shoppes at Tangerine Crossing, Dove Centre, Marana Center, Cortaro Ranch, Arizona Pavilions, and the Marketplace Marana serve adjacent subdivisions and regional shoppers. • Recreation. Marana maintains over 210 acres of developed parks and 17.4 miles of shared use paths. In addition, the Marana Municipal Planning Area is home to a variety of county, state, and national parks and trails. Among the largest recreation sites are the Tortolita Preserve, Tortolita Mountain Park, the Crossroads at the Silverbell District, and the Santa Cruz River Park. Four golf facilities with multiple courses exist within Marana including the Pines Golf Course at Marana, Heritage Highlands Golf and Country Club, Dove Mountain Golf Course, and the Gallery Golf Course. • Airports. The Marana Municipal Planning Area is served by Pinal Airpark and Marana Regional Airport, although neither is currently serviced by a major commercial airline. Major Residential Areas Providing direct and convenient multimodal transportation connections between major residential communities and key activity centers creates opportunities to connect residents to the places they need to travel. In Marana, just over 55 percent of the area is zoned as residential. Large residential developments and master planned communities sometimes create obstacles to creating connected facilities as the communities may have discontinuous roads, are far removed from existing facilities, or have walls limiting access. The Gladden Farms community went against this trend by developing walkable and bikeable trails within the community, dense walking and biking access points to the main roads surrounding the community, and nearby municipal trails and recreation to parks including the Marana Heritage River Park, Gladden Farms Community Park, Compass Park, Stonegate Park, and Willow Glen Park. 26 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 344 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Ironwood fort r.t National Monument Activity Center ® School ® Hospital/Medical Center OCommunity Center • Government OAirport • Library • Resort OMajor Shopping Center Study Network River, Wash, or Canal ---� Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary Town of Marana Town of Marana Planning Area Park, Open Space, or Golf Course \ u 2 A-•mice.

Understanding how we get around can help define needs and opportunities for the transportation system today and in the future, regardless of whether we choose to walk, bike, ride transit, or drive. This analysis considers average weekday and weekend days to gain an understanding of how we move around. The analysis uses data from Replica, a software that incorporates anonymized data from a variety of sources like the US Census Bureau, mobile location data, land use, economic activity, and others to create a simulation of an area to model how people get around, where they are going, and when they travel. Where We Want to Go Figure 2-9 Typical Trip Purpose (Desti'a We travel for many reasons every day. This analysis considered several trips we might take: • Getting to Work: all trips that end at a person's workplace Shop (including commute trips and things like a trip back from lunch). Eat • Getting to School: all trips to a person's school or college. • Traveling for Daily Needs: all social trips and trips to places Social where people shop, dine, and run errands. • Getting Outside: all trips to recreational destinations like parks Work and trailheads (this does not include trips without a destination, like walking the dog or jogging). As shown in Figure 2-9, more than 3 out of every 4 trips we take Errands are to do the things that make up our quality of life, like shop, eat, socialize, and run errands. However, we travel differently on Recreation weekdays and weekends: • While trips for shopping, eating, and socializing always make School up most of our trips, we tend to do these things more on weekends than on weekdays. • We travel much more for work and school on weekdays than on weekends. In fact, even when combining these trips, they make up the lowest percentage of weekend trips evaluated. • We travel slightly more for recreation on the weekends. 0% 5% 1 0% 1 5% 20% 25% 30% 35% 40% 45% ■ Weekday Weekend Source: Replica Southwest Fall 2022 28 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 346 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 How We Get There We choose to travel in different ways depending on where we are going, as shown below. While we are more likely to drive longer distances to work, we are much more likely to walk or bike for our shorter trips to get to school, meet daily needs, and get outside for recreational activities. We also tend to choose to drive more for our trips on weekends than we do on weekdays.

However, when we are traveling two miles or less to get to work, school, daily needs, or outside, our travel patterns look different. In fact, when traveling these shorter distances, we choose to walk more than one third of the time. Marano Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 347 of 580 September 3, 2024 29 OUR SOCIAL NEEDS Often, transportation and land use decisions place unfair burdens on disadvantaged communities. Conducting an analysis of traditionally underserved populations helps identify locations with high concentrations of people or groups who may not be physically or financially capable of owning or driving a vehicle and rely on walking, riding bicycles, and transit to meet their daily travel needs. Disadvantaged Population Groups The following are metrics for the Town of Marana • Age 65 and Older: 21.9% • Minority Population: 38.4% • People with a Disability (<65 years): 12.1 % • Population below the Poverty Level: 5.6% • Limited English Proficiency Households: 2.8% • Households with no Vehicles: 2.4% Justice40 Disadvantaged Communities Justice40 is a federal initiative and policy goal that 40 percent of Federal investments should flow to disadvantaged communities. To define disadvantaged communities, the Climate and Economic Justice Screening Tool (CEJST) was developed that defines seven categories for which a community may be disadvantaged (including health, housing, transportation, workforce development, among others). Three areas within Marana are considered disdvantaged failing one or more of the thresholds defined for each of the seven categories and are shown in Figure 2-10. The area west of Sandario Road and south of Avra Valley Road is considered disadvantaged because compared to the rest of the US it is in the 90t" percentile for expected agricultral loss and in the 90th percentile for flood risk in the next 30 years —failing the climate change category. In addition, the area is also considered to have legacy pollution because it has had at least one Formerly Used Defense Site (FUDS). Residents of this area also experienced greater transporation barriers. Finally, the area also failed in the workforce development category as this location is in the 90th percentile of people experiencing unemployment. The census tract south of the Pima County border, west of the 1-10 and Wentz Road and just south of Marana Road failed on climate change due to expected agricultural loss and risk of flooding in the next 30 years. It also failed transportation as residents experience higher transportation barriers compared with the rest of the nation. Finally, the last disadvantaged area in Marana is in the south eastern portion of the town and is considered disadvantaged due to leaky wastewater underground storage tanks. 30 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 348 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Ironwood Forest National Mornmtent ® Disadvantaged Community Study Network River, Wash, or Canal - Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary Town of Marana iQ Town of Marana Planning Area Park, Open Space, or Golf Course 0 ASource.

Page 349 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan 31 HOW HEALTHY ARE WE? Transportation networks shape how people move, and influence when, where, and what modes people use to travel. Because the transportation system is used by people daily, it can provide opportunities to incorporate physical activity into their daily lives. One opportunity to engage in daily physical activity is during a person's daily trips; however, driving is the predominant travel mode in Marana. Providing opportunities for people to walk or bike for short, daily trips instead of using their car may help mitigate public health concerns, such as diabetes, heart disease, stroke, and other chronic health conditions. Public Health Trends Table 2-5 provides key public health conditions in the Town of Marana in comparison to nationwide averages. Generally, residents of Marana have positive health habits as residents smoke less, are more physically active, and are less obese than the nation. This has led Marana to have lower rates of disabilities, physical distress, and high blood pressure. Table 2-5 Public Health Indicators Place Marana Nationwide Obesity 26.5% 30.8% Limited Physical Activity 17.1% 25.8% Diabetes 7.2% 9.9% Smoking 13% 16.2% Life Expectancy 79.0 years 79.1 years Frequent Physical Distress 10.4% 12.4% High Blood Pressure 27.3% Source: PLACES Project, Centers for Disease Control (2019) 29.5% 1 17_1°/ Adults have limited activity 26.5% Marana adults yes are obese 32 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 350 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 •fir • OUR STREETS TODAY This section outlines key characteristics and conditions of Marana's roadway network. Functional Classification Functional classification is the process by which streets and highways are grouped into classes, or systems, according to the character of service they are intended to provide. All vehicle trips include two distinct functions: mobility and land access. Functional classification is a hierarchy of roadway classes based on their role in providing access and mobility. Table 3-1 provides a summary of the study network's functional classification based on ADOT's Functional Classification System. However, based on current traffic volumes, speeds, number of lanes, accessibility, and other factors, several roads do not seem to operate as intended. Current traffic volumes indicate that the street operates as a collector. The final Marana TMP reviewed current/future traffic volumes and other criteria to recommend revisions to the functional classification of roadways.

It is important to note that the figure represents the general number of through lanes and there may be short sections with more lanes where development has occurred. The number of lanes provided at individual intersections also varies. There are locations where additional through and/or turn lanes exist to improve intersection capacity. Key findings show: • Arterials are typically 2 or 4 lanes; however, there are portions of arterials that are 6 lanes. Approximately 30 percent of arterials streets do not have a median present. • Frontage Roads run parallel to high-speed, limited access roads. Frontage roads exists along Interstate 10. • Collectors in the Municipal Planning Area mostly have one through lane in each direction with some exceptions.

Speed impacts crash severity in many ways - at higher speeds, a driver's peripheral vision is reduced and a car's stopping distance is greater. As shown on the right, the likelihood that a pedestrian hit by a vehicle will survive sharply decreases when speeds increase. To determine the posted speed limits of study corridors, speed limits were compiled from readily available GIS data from the Town and via a Google StreetView review of conditions. Figure 3-2 and Table 3-2 outlines current posted speed limits. Findings observations show: • Posted speed limits vary from 25 to 55 MPH. • Arterials largely have posted speed limits of 40 MPH or higher.

Brian Tefft, AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety, 2011 Traffic control devices help manage the movement of people and goods in an efficient manner. Traffic control devices include: • Traffic Signals: controls the flow of vehicles on the roadway network. Improving traffic signal timing can increase mobility and reduce overall congestion. Currently there are 30 traffic signals in the Town and 6 currently in design. • High Intensity Activated CrossWalK (HAWK): Also referred to as a Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (PHB), HAWKS are designed to help pedestrians safely cross busy or higher -speed roadways at midblock crossings and uncontrolled intersections. Unlike traffic signals, the HAWK is activated only when a pedestrian pushes the crossing button. Vehicles are free to move when no one is crossing the street unless it is solid red. There are three HAWK signals in the Marana Planning Area. • Traffic Signs: A STOP or YIELD sign notifies drivers to bring their vehicle to a full stop or yield at intersections. Figure 3-3 illustrates the location of traffic signals and HAWK beacons on the study network.

Essential maintenance not only provides the public with safe infrastrucutre but also reduces costly repairs. Pavement Condition Figure 3-4 Ilustrates the current pavement conditions based upon the Town's Pavement Management System (PMS). Most of the roadways that are in poor condition are located in Downtown Marana and in west Marana. The deterioration may be due to ongoing repair and construction. Key findings include: • Good Condition: 75 percent • Fair Condition: 16 percent • Poor Condition: 9 percent Structures Maintaining bridges and culverts in a state of good repair is essential for preserving mobility and connectivity. Weight limits or closures on structurally deficient bridges negatively impact freight and traffic movement, while out of date structures that inadequately carry current traffic volumes may cause traffic congestion. To analyze structure conditions in the study network, bridge condition ratings were obtained from the Town and the National Bridge Inventory Database. Figure 3-5 illustrates the location and condition of structures along the study network. It is important to note that the construction year and/or age of the structure does not reflect more recent reconstructions or bridge improvements. Key findings include: • Total Structures in the Marana Municipal Planning Area: 107 structures • Good Condition: 63 percent (67 total bridges) • Fair Condition: 35 percent (37 structures) • Poor Condition: 3 structures all located in the Municipal Planning Area, outside of current town limits • Average Structure Age: 55 years since the structure was built. • Bridges in poor condition were primarily constructured prior to 1962. 39 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 357 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Ironwood fort rt National Monument El Tiro Rd Pavement Condition' Poor Fair Good Study Network River.

Medians on arterials range throughout the study area between raised medians, two -way - left -turn lanes, and no median. Collectors largely have a two way left turn lane or no median present. During future phases of the plan, a review of street designs will occur to determine median needs. Key Observations/Findings: A road featuring four travel lanes and a two-way left -turn lane may not align with the street context, as observed in the image to the right on Silverbell Road south of Cortaro Road. Railroad Crossings Silverbell Road South of Cortaro Road The Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR) line traverses through Marana along the 1-10 corridor. This segment of UPRR is an active line with numerous trains each day and night. Within Marana town limits, the UPRR has 16 total trains during the day and 16 total trains each night. The rail corridor includes six at -grade street crossings. Traffic volumes on Cortaro Farms Road and Tangerine Road are significant, and with the number of trains each day, traffic volumes may impact safety and mobility along the corridors. In addition, the high number of train crossings may cause delays and congestion issues.

LOS reflects vehicle traffic volume and does not integrate how motorists feel along a street. For instance, a collector road with an active street environment surrounded by dense mixed use naturally attracts traffic, creating a poor LOS rating, whereas a local roadway within an area with closed businesses and blight conditions may score a good LOS rating. This section reviews roadway performance using LOS and additional metrics that are reflective of user experience. Traffic Volumes Traffic volume is an important variable in understanding the operation of a corridor. Current daily traffic volumes were obtained from the Town and supplemented with counts from Replica, ADOT's MS2 data portal, and PAG. Figure 3-7 illustrates existing daily traffic volumes in Marana today. Key observations and findings include: • Portions of Tangerine Road, Cortaro Road, Twin Peaks Road, Ina Road, Orange Grove Road, and Thornydale Road have daily traffic volumes greater than 20,000. The lack of adjacent parallel corridors to and acorss I-10 may be a contributing factor. • The highest traffic volumes are largely on arterials connecting drivers to the 1-10 highway. Level of Service Level of Service (LOS) is a term used to describe traffic operations. Level of Service can be calculated for the various elements of a street system including road segments, signalized intersections, and unsignalized intersections. The various levels of service range from LOS A (free flowing traffic) to LOS F (forced flow, or very congested), and are described as: • LOS A: free flow with low volumes and no delays • LOS B: stable flow with speeds restricted by travel conditions and with minor delays • LOS C: stable flow with speeds and maneuverability controlled because of higher volumes. Speed and maneuverability are severely restricted and the driver or pedestrian's experience is generally a poor level of comfort or convenience. • LOS D: operating conditions near capacity level. High density traffic affects speeds and restricts maneuverability. • LOS E: operating conditions at or near the capacity level. All speeds are reduced to a low but relatively uniform value. LOS E is unstable and can quickly deteriorate to LOS F. LOS A Los B LOS C LOS E LOS F • LOS F: forced flow with very low speeds caused by traffic volumes exceeding the capacity of the corridor. Users experience long delays with stop -and -go traffic.

Generally, LOS D is considered the lowest acceptable level of service for an urban area. Table 3-4 outlines corridor segments that currently operate at LOS E or F based on average daily traffic volumes. As the figure and table show, portions of the 1-10 frontage roads, Ina Road, and Cortaro Road have the highest congestion/worst operating conditions in the Municipal Planning Area. The majority of congestion issues are along corridors that connect to the 1-10 corridor.

While most drivers expect some form of congestion, particularly during peak hours, having predictable travel times is important for users so they can get to where they are going on time. Freight carriers also require dependable travel times to remain competitive. Travel Delay Another metric often used to quantify travel time reliability is Travel Delay. Travel Delay is the average amount of additional time (in seconds per mile travelled) that it will take a motorist to traverse a road segment during a peak period in comparison to free -flow conditions. A delay value of 20 indicates that travel times are slower by 20 seconds for each mile compared to free -flow conditions. As illustrated in Figure 3-11, arterials with higher delays are located largely off the I-10 and in the southern portion of Marana, including Ina Road, Orange Grove Road, and Cortaro Road. Making it There On time, All the Time Travel time reliability provides a valuable metric for assessing roadway performance. While congestion and travel times can vary greatly from day to day, motorists depend on having a consistent, predictable travel route to get to where they are going on time, all the time. Travel Time Index provides a metric for quantifying how reliable travel times are on a given corridor. The Travel Time Index represents a ratio of travel time in free -flow conditions to the travel time in peak periods. A Travel Time Index of 1.3 indicates that a 30-minute free -flow trip takes approximately 39-minutes during peak periods. As shown in Figure 3-12, Travel Time Index values are the highest on east -west corridors connecting to the I-10, including Marana Road, Cortaro Road, Orange Grove Road, and Ina Road. Delay on Cortaro Farms Road can be attributed to the number of train crossings per day.

Street safety is a top concern for Marana for all users - motorists, transit riders, pedestrians, and bicyclists. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Arizona has one of the highest bicycle and pedestrian fatality rates in the Nation, and the Tucson metropolitan area consistently ranks as one of the highest regions in the nation for fatalities. However, according to the Pima Association of Governments Strategic Transportation Safety Plan, Marana has one of the lowest fatality and serious injury rates in the PAG region. Traffic Volumes Crash data analysis helps identify trends, patterns, predominant crash types, and high crash rate corridors and intersections. This analysis also helps identify potential safety improvements to reduce the frequency and severity of crashes. Crash analysis presented in this section is based on data obtained from ADOT's Arizona Crash Information System (ACIS) for the five-year period of July 2017 to July 2022. Between 2017 and 2022, a total of 2,662 crashes were reported within the Marana Municipal Planning Area. As the chart on the right illustrates, crashes have slightly increased over the five-year period. Figure 3-13 illustrates locations with the highest density of crashes. As the figure shows, crashes occur throughout the Municipal Planning Area but are largely located at the business intersections and corridors in south Marana off 1-10. Crash density tends to be positively correlated with traffic density, meaning that as traffic volume increases in an area, the likelihood of accidents occurring also tends to rise. The following section outlines key crash characteristics to help better understand the "who," "what," "when," "where,", and "how" of transportation safety in the Marana Municipal Planning Area.

While every crash is unique, they are often categorized according to the circumstances of the crash. Each vehicle crash can be grouped into different collision types, including rear -end crashes, angle crashes, left/right hand turn crashes, and head on crashes. Each crash type can indicate a particular problem that may be addressed through a targeted engineering, enforcement, or behavioral countermeasure. As illustrated below, rear -end and angle crashes make up over 51% of all crashes in Marana historically. Crash by Type 17% 1% 13% 34% 13% 18% 4% Angle Head On Left Turn Rear End Sideswipe Single Vehicle Other What Types of Crashes Resulted in Serious Injuries and Fatalities? The graphs below illustrate the distribution of fatal crashes and serious injury crashes by crash type, respectively. Pedestrian and bicyclist fatalities account for 33% of all fatal crashes in the Town, in addition to another 4.3% of serious injury crashes. There are a total of 9 fatal crashes that have occurred in the Town between 2018 and 2022, 2 involving pedestrians and 1 involving a bicyclist.

Understanding the locational context of crashes is an important step in identifying location specific safety issues that may be addressed through targeted engineering, enforcement, or behavioral countermeasures. Within Marano, there is a disproportionate split between crashes occurring at intersections and along corridors, with nearly 61% of all crashes occurring at intersections. Of the corridor and intersection crashes, few cause fatal or serious injuries (0%-2%) as most crashes result in minor, possible, or no injury (97%-99%). Driveway Alley, or Crossover, 3% -\ Other or Unknown, 2% Intersection Related, 61% Non Intersection Related, 35% 0% 10% 20% 30% 40% 50% Crash Severity by Location According to the Arizona Strategic Traffic Safety Plan, between 2016 and 2018, 28% of all fatalities and 44% of all serious injuries in Arizona occurred at or were related to an intersection. Marana is in line with these statewide rates with 33% of fatal and 43% of serious injury crashes occurring at or related to an intersection. To gain a better understanding of why high severity crashes may be occurring and possible mitigation strategies, high severity crashes at intersections and roadways were broken down by crash types, see Table 3-6 below.

As Marana develops, the demand for additional transportation options is changing. In addition to driving, people want safe and comfortable places to walk and bike, whether it is to take kids to school or the park or to walk the dog around the block. The Covid-19 pandemic resulted in more people working remotely than ever before, while also reintroducing people to walking and biking for fun and to get to places. In order to address these changing needs and desires, it is important to understand what makes a place safe and comfortable for walking. People walking are: • Very sensitive to detours that increase the time or distance to their destination; • More comfortable when routes provide shade, water, and places to rest; and • In need of walkways with safe and comfortable designs for people who use mobility devices and people with hearing and visual impairments. The changing environment in Marana has provided new opportunities to address the needs for people walking and better connect people to places. Figure 4-1 illustrates walking facilities available today in Marana. Increasing Walking Opportunities New municipal and private developments throughout Marana are creating new walkable landscapes. Marana's new Downtown area, which includes recently installed Main Street and Civic Center Drive, provides ample amenities for people who walk. These streets are lined with planted buffers that both provide shade trees and separates people walking from car traffic. Periodic benches and shade -covered bus stops provide opportunities to rest. New developments like Gladden Farms are also creating pedestrian access paths that help create a denser more interconnected walking network within the neighborhood.

Fencing from community does not have frequent pedestrian access points causing people to walk long distance to access the neighborhood. HAWK on Silverbell Road in front of Coyote Trail Elementary School Barriers to Walking While new streets in Marana are being built with high quality infrastructure for people who walk, older roadways either do not meet current best practices or provide no accommodations at all. Many of these older roadways are adjacent to newer developments resulting in potential barriers for those wanting to walk. While many developments have created access points specifically for people walking and biking in and out of the neighborhood, others have few access points. This forces people walking and biking to travel longer than may be comfortable. Crossing the Street Crossings deserve special attention, as the highest chance for interaction between people walking and driving is at crossing points. In Marana: • Signalized intersections provide walk phases and crosswalks to indicate to all road users when and where people walking should travel. • Signalized mid -block crossings are provided primarily near major activity centers and schools. • Pedestrian warning signs and marked crosswalks are provided at some uncontrolled intersections. While unsignalized crosswalks are provided along low -speed roadways, some require pedestrians to navigate crossing roadways with posted speeds of 30 mph or above which may be uncomfortable for some users.

In Marana, these ADA-accessible paths provide connections to various destinations but also allow people to connect with nature and get over extended distances without interruption. Further, off-street shared -use paths allow families and others sensitive to traffic a safe place to enjoy active recreation. Some of these popular paths in Marano include: • The Tangerine Road shared use path (with funded extensions coming soon) • The Tucson Loop shared use path that connects Pima County, Marana, Oro Valley, Tucson, and South Tucson. In Marana, the Tucson Loop ("the Loop") extends from the southern extent of the town to Avra Valley. • The Santa Cruz River Park Trail currently provides recreation and connectivity between the Gladden Farms community to Marana Heritage River Park, Gladden Farms Park, and to the Santa Cruz River. Santa Cruz River Park is also along Santa Cruz River south of Avra Valley Road. This path will eventually be incorporated as part of the Loop. Further, Marana has many equestrian trails and dirt paths for those looking to hike or go on mountain biking expeditions. Especially popular are the Tortolita Rails which includes 29 miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian opportunities. Pima County and Marano leaders celebrating the newly built Loop path just north of Ina Road Speeds and Walking A variety of factors impact safety and comfort for people walking (and biking), but interaction with vehicles is one of the most critical to consider. Significant research has been conducted which indicates that speeds along a roadway are a major indicator of the potential of death or serious injury in the event of a crash. The likelihood of a pedestrian suffering death or serious injury when struck by a car while walking increases from 18% when the vehicle is moving at 20 MPH to 77% when the vehicle is traveling at 40 MPH. As driving speed increases, a driver's line of sight of the roadway and its surrounding is also impacted. Research shows that when driving at a higher speed, the location on the road one naturally focuses on while driving, is further down the road. Because of this, the area a driver can see on the periphery is reduced, and therefore drivers at faster speeds are less likely to notice a person waiting to cross the street or biking in the bike lane. On the other hand, people driving at slower speeds are more likely to have better awareness of people around them. In Marana, the speeds on neighborhood streets are often slow (25 MPH or less), creating comfortable walking and biking environments. However, most streets that connect to destinations outside of a neighborhood, like schools, shopping, and employment, tend to be 35 MPH or greater, making it less attractive for people to walk or bike to destinations. 64 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 381 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Ironwood Forest National Monument • High -Intensity Activated Crosswalk (HAWK) 0 Underpass Existing Facilities Existing Shared Use Path Community Walking Parth Sidewalk Existing Trail Marana Parks and Recreation Master Plan Planned Shared use Pail• • • Planned Trail Planned River Park Trail Study Network River, Wash, or Canal Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary CI Town of Marana Planning Area Town of Marana Park, Open Space, or Golf Course o z ASource: Town of Marana.

Understanding how our streets are used today is a critical first step in determining transportation improvement needs and can ultimately help to prioritize investments in areas where they might be used most. Strava Data To understand usage patterns, walking, running, and bicycling information was extracted from Strava data. Strava is a mobile fitness application that allows people walking and biking to track their activities using Global Positioning System (GPS)-enabled mobile devices. As Strava predominantly advertises to athletes, it is likely to represent people walking or jogging for fitness purposes over other trip purposes. However, it is expected people who walk or jog for fitness do so on walking facilities where they feel the least amount of stress from traffic and that Strava can help identify places where others may prefer to walk. As shown in Figure 4-2, the most frequented paths and streets tend to be those in residential areas or nearby path systems accessible from residential neighborhoods. For instance, the Dove Mountain community has a dense concentration of inter -neighborhood paths that connect into a broader Townwide path system. People utilize the residential paths to travel around their community and to the larger townwide path systems that are part of the Tortolita Preserve, Tortolita Mountains, and Dove Mountain Community paths that provide a path along Dove Mountain Boulevard. Replica Data To further understand walking trips, Replica data was used to determine where non -recreational walking trips (trips which have a destination, as opposed to looping trips like going for a run or walking the dog) originate. As shown in Figure 4-3, the most densely populated and developed areas of Marana see the highest number of walking trips. As the Town continues to develop, it is likely that new areas with great walking infrastructure and mixed uses, like Downtown Marana, will see increases in recreational and non - recreational walking trips.

Expanding and enhancing the bicycle network can help reduce congestion and stress on the Town's streets, as people can choose to bike rather than drive. However, not everyone who bikes has the same needs or level of comfort biking on the same types of facilities. People who Bike Generally, people who bike in Marana can be categorized into the following, recognizing people may fit into multiple categories: Utilitarian. People who walk or bike for everyday errands like shopping, medical appointments, to visit friends/family, etc. Recreational. People who walk or ride for fun, generally on the trail network. Commuters. People who walk or Kids & Families. Parents and bike to work or school, including children (under 16) who walk or those who walk or bike to bike, often to parks, schools, or neighborhood destinations. access transit. Sports & Fitness. People who bike for sport, generally at higher speeds and longer distances. Road Enthusiasts. People who prefer to bike in the street in mixed traffic. On Small Wheels. People who use scooters, skateboards, and other small devices. 70 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 387 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Examples of Bikeways Figure 4-4 illustrates the existing designated bike facilities in Marana. As shown, the Town is dominated by shared -use paths and on - street bike facilities like multi -use lanes and paved shoulders. Bikeway designs vary in complexity, each offering varying levels of comfort and separation from vehicles. Bikeway design include: Shared Use Paths Shared use paths provide a dedicated facility for people biking, walking, or rolling. To make a shared use path comfortable for most users, it's important that driveway access is minimized. • Comfortable for most bike users. • May be uncomfortable for large groups of sports or fitness riders and sports enthusiasts who may not have enough space to pass slower riders. Paved Shoulders When adequate width is provided, shoulders can serve bicycle travel on roads, providing a more comfortable alternative to shared roadway travel. • Comfortable for some sports or fitness riders and roadway enthusiasts. • May be uncomfortable for kids and families, small wheel users who require well maintained surface, and utility or commuter riders depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. Local Streets/Mixed-use Streets/Bike Boulevards While residential streets may not be a formal part of the bike network, they often have low traffic volumes and lower speeds that make them comfortable for use by all people biking. Bike boulevards are enhanced with features intended to manage traffic speeds and volumes. • Comfortable for all road users so long as observed traffic speeds and volumes are very low. Bike Lanes Bike lanes are a portion of road designated for people biking through use of pavement markings and optional signs. • Comfortable for sports or fitness riders, some roadway enthusiasts. • Acceptable for utilitarian, commuters, on those on small wheels depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. • May be uncomfortable for some kids and families, depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. Buffered Bike Lanes These bike lanes include a painted buffer between the bike lane and vehicular traffic or parking. • Comfortable for sports or fitness riders, some roadway enthusiasts. • Acceptable for more utilitarian, commuters, and small wheel users will find these comfortable than bike lanes given similar roadway conditions. • May be uncomfortable for some kids and families, depending on roadway speeds, volumes, and number of lanes. Separated Bikeways These one- or two-way bikeways are exclusive to bicyclists and are physically separated from vehicular traffic by a vertical element. • Comfortable for most bike users. • Acceptable for kids and families depending on the type and degree of physical separation. • May be uncomfortable for some road enthusiasts prefer greater space to maneuver and prefer to ride in the roadway.

A variety of factors are known to influence comfort for biking, such as the speed and volume of traffic, presence, and type of bicycle facility, the design of the road, and the individual needs of the person biking. As illustrated to the right, LTS ranges from low -stress streets suitable for families and children (LTS 1) to high -stress streets only suitable for experienced riders such as sports cyclists and road enthusiasts (LTS 4). Roads with high LTS scores may deter potential bicyclists from riding, leading them to choose a different mode of transportation or forcing them to make lengthy detours to avoid high -stress streets. LTS Scoring The criteria shown in Table 4-1 were used to determine the LTS score for each street and bike facility in Marana, considering the following: • "Bike routes with striped shoulders" were treated as mixed traffic streets as shoulder widths vary and may require people biking to temporarily use a travel lane. • Shared -use paths or side paths were assigned LTS 1; however, those without a buffer were assigned LTS 2. This design enhances bicyclist safety and aligns with FHWA recommendations. The results of these scores are shown in Figure 4-5. Table 4-1 Level of Traffic Stress Criteria for Streets in Marana Speed Number of Limit Lanes 25 MPH or Less 2 Lanes 3 Lanes 4+ Lanes 30 MPH 2 - 3 Lanes 4-5 Lanes 6+ Lanes 35 MPH 2 - 3 Lanes 4-5 Lanes 6+ Lanes 40 MPH or Greater 2 - 3 Lanes 4-5 Lanes 6+ Lanes Facility Type Very low stress facility, comfortable for all ages and abilities Moderate volumes and speeds comfortable for confident bicyclists LTS 1 LTS 2 Low volume, low speed road suitable for most adults High volumes and speeds, uncomfortable for most bicyclists LTS 3 LTS 4 Mixed Traffic / Bicycle Striped Bike Buffered Bike Protected Shared Use Path Shared Use Path Paved Shoulder Boulevard Lane Lane Bikeway (adjacent) (buffered) Marano Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 390 of 580 September 3, 2024 73 H coo y — — Pima County — — Ironwood forest National Monument It is important to note that the Level of Traffic Stress is used to identify facilities that are comfortable for most users.

Strava is a useful tool to understand where people bike. For biking, Strava is advertised to recreational, and sports riders and the data collected is from a self-selecting pool of typically whiter, wealthier, and more athletic individuals. Even so, a recent study determined that while Strava data is not representative of the demographics of the population as a whole, it still provides an accurate estimation of where people of all income levels, races, genders, and skill levels are biking. Strava Data Figure 4-6 shows where people who use Strava are biking. Some conclusions from this data indicate higher levels of biking occur at: • Shared use paths like the Santa Cruz River Park Trail, the Loop, the Tangerine Road shared -use path, and the Twin Peaks Road shared use path. These paths provide comfortable spaces for people to ride casually or for recreation. • Some streets with paved shoulders, including Tangerine Farms and Tangerine Road, Avra Valley Road, Twin Peaks Road, Dove Mountain Road, and Silverbell Road. This is particularly true on streets which continue for long distances, allowing riders to travel further without many turns, which may support people traveling for sport or as a form of transportation. • Dirt paths and trails in the Tortolita Preserve where many people go to mountain bike. Replica Data The most densely populated and developed areas of Marana see the highest number of biking trips, as reported by Replica and shown in Figure 4-7. As new areas develop and new bike facilities are constructed that are comfortable for people of all ages and abilities, the patterns of where people choose to bike may change.

A street grid with shorter block lengths and four-way intersections maximize access to destinations, minimizes trip distances, and increases the possible number of routes from Point A to Point B. Walkscore.com measures how "walkable" and "bikeable" a community is by measuring walking and biking routes and connectivity to nearby amenities. As shown to the right, Marano is the middle of the pack among its peer cities, Surprise, Goodyear, Oro Valley, Buckeye, and Sahuarita with low bike scores and even lower walking scores. Marana's walking and biking scores were significantly below its metropolitan neighbor, Tucson. Accessibility Assessment Access to destinations is fundamentally different for people walking and biking than those who drive. Drivers can travel much longer distances and access many more destinations than people walking or biking within the same time frame. In addition, people walking or biking experience the roadway differently and may be dissuaded from riding or walking entirely if the infrastructure does not feel safe. People biking have different experience levels and needs in order to determine what feels safe. Those who ride for exercise or for sport have very different needs than families biking with children to a park or to school. Bike LTS was used to establish a "Low Stress Network" where most people would feel comfortable biking to destinations regardless of their age or their ability. The Low Stress Network was then used to develop 15- minute biking sheds. The 15-minute bike shed is defined as a 15-minute bike trip from origin to destination as shown in Figure 4-8. Steps in the biking assessment include: • Key destinations were identified including parks, libraries, airports, schools, major employers, shopping centers, and recreational paths. • Evaluate roads for Biking LTS and define the Low Stress Network as LTS 1 & 2 roads and paths. • High -stress roads (LTS 3 & 4) are considered barriers to cyclists and are not displayed or analyzed as part of the network. Only signalized intersections that provide a place for people bicycling to cross these roads are included in the Low Stress Network. • Based on the available Low Stress Network, create 15-minute biking sheds.

While many destinations in Marana are well connected to the Low Stress Network, few residents can reach it. Results of the assessment show: • Nearly all civic institutions like Parks, Community Centers, Libraries, other Government uses as well as Hospitals and Medical Centers are accessible using the Low Stress Network (Table 4-2). • Less than half of schools and shopping centers that generate significant daily trips are connected to the network. • Less than 30% of all residential parcels can reach any destination using the Low Stress Network and only 20%--or one in five --can use the Low Stress Network to access Schools, Parks, and Recreational Paths (Table 4-3).

Frequent and safe crossings or alternative paths for people walking or biking can help bridge the gap that high stress roads create. • Some developments also do not provide regular pedestrian or bicycle access due to the presence of fences or other barriers. Lack of comfortable crossings and access points have resulted in some adjacent destinations and residential neighborhoods being inaccessible to each other even though they are adjacent or across the street from each other. • Lack of formally designated facilities have driven some residents to use informal infrastructure as access points. • Drainage ditches and dirt pathways are used by residents as access points to the Loop and other destinations, but they remain inaccessible to all users and especially to those using mobility devices, are hard of hearing, or have impaired sight. These observable gaps are illustrated and discussed further in Figure 4- 11 Areas with High Accessibility Some areas, like Downtown Marana and Gladden Farms have great access due to high quality walking and biking networks. For example, the "low stress network" in Gladden Farms is enhanced by shared use paths that create a dense walking and biking network throughout the community. An underpass and HAWK signal provide comfortable crossings of Tangerine Farms Road (an LTS 4), so residents who live to the east still have access to Gladden Farms Park, Marana Heritage Park, and the Santa Cruz River Trail. Drainage channel providing informal access from the Continental Ranch Community to the Loop. Shared use path that leads to the Loop terminates midblock without crossing or entrance into adjacent neighborhood. Unsignalized crossing across Coachline Boulevard. Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 400 of 580 83 IDE NTIFIED GAPS AND OPPORTUNITIES LTS is one measure of biking stress, but there are many other elements that may impact comfort of people biking. For example, observed speeds of people driving on the roadway, conditions of the infrastructure, and width or type of separation from vehicles can also impact user comfort. The following gaps and opportunities were identified within Marana and their locations are displayed in Figure 4-11 on the facing page. High Stress Network Roads with high speeds and multiple lanes create barriers for people biking. Inconsistent paved shoulder widths force bicyclists to share the road with fast-moving traffic. These include roads with LTS scores of 3 and 4. — Low Stress Network Many neighborhood streets have low speeds and volumes and are comfortable to walk and bike on. However, high stress streets often bisect neighborhoods, creating "islands" of low stress streets and limiting the area people can access on these networks. These include roads with LTS scores of 1 and 2. Crossings There are few places to comfortably cross high stress streets, with long distances between signalized intersections that require people to travel far out of their way to access destinations. • Access to Destinations While many destinations are connected to some portion of the low stress network, the lack of comfortable crossings and presence of high stress roadways limits the number of people who can access them. Downtown Marana While this area is planned to have mixed uses and a street network comfortable for people to walk and bike on, it is disconnected from the surrounding neighborhoods due to a lack of low stress connections and comfortable crossings, limiting the number of people who can access it on foot or by bike. Recreational Paths There is an existing high quality path system that continues to be expanded and runs adjacent to many destinations. However, the paths often lack direct connections to neighborhoods and destinations. For example, the Loop trail lacks connections to the circled neighborhoods (;;;) as well as to Costco, which it runs directly behind it. Gaps in the Loop Trail There is a gap between the Santa Cruz River Park Trail and the Loop which effectively divides the northern and southern areas in Marana for people who walk and bike. 1-10 as a Barrier While 1-10 provides an important regional and statewide connection for vehicles, it acts as a barrier that divides Marana. There are very few places to cross, and the crossings that do exist often lack comfortable walking and biking infrastructure. 84 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 401 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 TSB Ironwood Forcer National Monument d El Tiro Rd High Stress Roadway Low Stress Network • Crossing • Access to Destinations Downtown Marana - High Quality Paths Neighborhood with No Loop Connection I-10 as a Barrier River, Wash, or Canal -�—� Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary Town of Marana Town of Marana Planning Area Park, Open Space. or Golf Course 0 ASource.

In 2019, the Town completed its "Make Marana 2040 General Plan" which included transportation goals for the community. This plan was developed through significant community outreach and community feedback that included surveys and town hall sessions. Transportation goals included: • Safe and efficient mobility for all users • A system that is accessible to all persons • A multi -modal transportation network • A network sustainable within available funding • Sensitivity to the region's wildlife and natural environment Make Marana 2040 also identified a walking and biking network and defined two types of routes: • Primary bike and pedestrian routes that create the spine of the active transportation system. These routes follow major linear features across Marana including the Santa Cruz River, Tangerine Road, and the Central Arizona Project canal. When complete, these connections will close the Santa Cruz River Trail / Tucson Loop gap noted in the previous section. • Secondary routes that provide local connections to the primary routes. These routes include major roads that connect to this spine including Avra Valley Road, Twin Peaks Road, Moore Road, Marana Road, and Sanders Road. This network also includes new roadways that do not yet exist but are planned due to new developments occurring in the area. Of the secondary routes, Avra Valley Road, Twin Peaks Road, and Sanders are all currently bike hot spots and may help increase connections between neighborhoods and across the Town of Marana. However, these routes by themselves will not close the gaps within neighborhoods or guarantee that residents can access these secondary and primary routes as identified.

Among other elements, it defines the street's functional classification in Marana. • Town of Marana Design Standards (March 2022): provides standard details for the design of streets in Marana, including lane widths and the presence and design of walking and biking facilities, among other things. These standards supersede the Subdivision Street Standards Manual. • The Town of Marana's Subdivision Street Standards Manual (March 2022): lays out requirements for street design on public and private local streets to provide safe streets for people driving, biking, and walking within neighborhoods. • Marana Land Development Code: defines requirements for all development in Marana. These codes are broad, but they provide important guidance on things like where and when developers must include walking and biking facilities and amenities. This section summarizes the relevant elements from the standards noted above as they relate to walking and biking. Functional Classification The Town of Marana consists of several broad street types. While people may walk and bike on many types of facilities, local, collector, and arterial streets are the most common street types. The Town's standards define these as follows: • Arterials: the main corridors within a community that support high traffic volumes. Arterials generally provide limited access to adjacent development. • Collectors: used to collect vehicles traveling from local roads and distribute them to roads with higher volumes of traffic. Collectors typically balance the need for access to adjacent properties and the mobility of through traffic. • Local Roads: provide access to nearby properties, businesses, and residences over mobility. Traffic generated from nearby land uses is generally light and speed limits are low. Local Streets & Commercial & Industrial Subdivision Streets Design Speed: 25 mph (min.) Design Volume: 1,000 Average Daily Trips (ADT) Context: access to residences, businesses, etc. Cross Section: 2 lanes, undivided Commercial & Industrial Subdivision Streets must be designed to accommodate heavier weight commercial vehicles. Minor Collectors Design Speed: 35 mph (30 mph posted speed) Design Volume: not specified Context: access to subdivisions and local streets. Not intended to provide direct access to properties. Cross Section: 2 lanes, divided Marana Transportation Master Plan Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 404 of 580 September 3, 2024 87 Design Standards Related to Walking and Biking Generally, with exceptions, the standards related to walking and biking noted in the aforementioned documents are as follows: • 4 FT (minimum) sidewalks (both sides) for Local Streets and Minor Collectors with curb. • 5 FT (minimum) sidewalks (both sides) on local streets with curb way, Urban Collectors, 4-Lane Collectors, and Arterials • 7 FT (minimum) multiuse lanes --which can be used by people biking --are allowed on Collectors and Arterials with alternative options for a 10 FT (minimum) shared use path. • A 10 FT (minimum) meandering shared -use path can be placed next to 4-lane Collectors or Arterials and 6-lane Arterials. • Sidewalk ramps (directional or diagonal) are required at all curb returns. • Detectable warning strips are required at locations per ADA requirements. • Shared use paths and bicycle facilities are not addressed in the Subdivision Street Standards Manual. Land Development Code Requirements The Town's land development codes generally default to the standards mentioned previously. However, the Mixed Use Streets areas have additional requirements and standards as noted below. Subdivision Requirements • The Subdivision Recreation Area Design Manual allows for trails, linear parks, and greenways (such as shared -use paths that can accommodate bikes and pedestrians) to be counted toward a subdivisions required Minimum Recreational Area but is not required. • A minimum of four bicycle parking spots are required as part of a sub divisions Minimum Recreational Area. • Marana's Town Code requires subdivisions of 30 or more lots that are connected to existing Shared Use Paths to develop Shared Use Paths that "provide for access to nearby existing or future parks, schools, playgrounds, shopping centers, public transportation, and other community facilities." Mixed Use Streets These areas occur within Mixed Use Zoning Districts (Blended -Use, Downtown, and Downtown Neighborhood) and have special standards that supersede the other design guidelines in the Town. The following elements are included in these districts: • 10 FT minimum sidewalks are required on both sides. • "Connectivity for bicycles and pedestrians should be created and maintained where possible, even when there is no vehicular connectivity." • Cul-de-sacs are discouraged, and there is a requirement for a street grid network, which has benefits for people walking, biking, and driving. • Block face standards of 300- to 500 FT are provided. Short blocks allow for people walking and biking to cross the street more frequently, which improves access to destinations. 88 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 405 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 • Block faces exceeding 500 FT must be subdivided with a sidewalk that is at least 12 FT wide. • A set of cross sections is included addressing a variety of street types within Mixed Use Streets zones, with wide sidewalk requirements, narrower vehicular travel lanes, and landscape requirements. No bike facilities are noted. • Buildings are required to be set closer to the street. Smaller setbacks place storefronts where people passing by can easily see and enter them. Smaller setbacks also help to create a sense of enclosure for people walking, biking, and driving, thus calming traffic. • Parking is required to be behind buildings or otherwise screened from the street. Shielding parking from the street can create a more pleasant walking environment and improve access to buildings for people who walk and bike. • There are no minimum parking requirements, and in some cases, there are parking maximums. Removing parking requirements can help developers conserve land or provide more space for other features, like landscape or walking, biking, and living space. This can also help encourage people to choose to access sites via modes other than driving. • Joint driveways are encouraged for properties to minimize the number of access points to streets, which also helps limit the number of times people walking and biking must interact with drivers. Bicycle Parking The Town provides some requirements for bicycle parking and design. Specifically, bicycle parking should be located in visible and well -lit areas, accessible, attached to the ground, and installed so the full capacity can be utilized. Bike racks should provide a minimum six feet of clearance for people walking and must not be installed within five feet of hydrants, loading zones, and bus stop markers. Per the Subdivision Recreation Area Design Manual, a bicycle crack with at minimum four -bicycle capacity is required as part of a subdivisions' minimum recreational area requirements. Summary When reviewing the design standards and codes, several conclusions can be drawn: • Lack of design standards make it difficult to include consistent bike facilities in Marana; especially for people who may be less comfortable biking on streets with vehicular traffic. • Providing wider sidewalks, shared use paths, and marked bike facilities could make streets with higher vehicular speeds and volumes more comfortable for people walking and biking. • Neighborhood streets are designed with a minimum speed of 25 mph, which is the maximum recommended design speed for shared bike / vehicular traffic lanes if one is designing for people of all ages and abilities. • Minor Collectors are designed for 35 mph (posted 30 mph). In spite of these low speeds, many people may not be comfortable biking on them. • Marana's Town Code includes many provisions for paths and comfortable walking and biking in Mixed Use Streets, but currently Mixed Use Streets are only zoned in limited parts of the Town. • The bicycle parking guidance provides valuable information regarding how to site bike parking but only provides minimum bike parking requirements for recreational areas inside of subdivision developments and does not provide requirements for other destinations such as businesses.

Public transit provides important access and connectivity to key destinations and regional access to employment, education, shopping, and services. Transit services in Marana are provided by Sun Tran, the regional public transportation authority for the Tucson metropolitan area, and a variety of social service agencies. This section outlines existing public transit conditions in Marana today. Existing Services To meet different trip purposes, a variety of transit route types are needed. For example, express bus routes and the light rail excel at taking commuters and residents to major employment and activity centers. Local bus routes, however, provide increased neighborhood connectivity through frequent stops, fixed service, and closer access to destinations/origins. Figure 5-1 illustrates current transit routes in Marana. Existing transit services include: • Sun Tran: Sun Tran operates 29 regular fixed routes with daily service in Tucson, the Tohono O'Odham Nation, Pasqua Yaqui Tribe and Pima County. Route 16 serves Ina Road in Marana and reaches several destinations including downtown and Tucson Mall. • Sun Shuttle Routes: Sun Shuttle operates 12 neighborhood circulator routes throughout the Tucson metropolitan area, with several connections traveling through or to destinations in Marana. Routes in Marana include the 412, 413, and 414. • Sun Express: Sun Express is a fast commuter transportation service that makes limited stops from outlying areas to major destinations. Marana currently is served by three Express routes: O 102X Northwest - UA Express: connects multiple stops along Ina Road to downtown Tucson and Oro Valley. O 103X Northwest - Downtown Express: connects multiple stops along Ina Road to downtown Tucson. O 104X Marana - Downtown Express: provides direct service from Ina Road/ Star Commerce Way and the Crossroads at Silverbell District Park to downtown Tucson. O 203X Oro Valley - Aero Park Express: connects multiple stops from Oro Valley to Downtown Tucson. O 204X Northwest - Aero Park Express: connects multiple stops from Laos Transit Center to the Crossroads at Silverbell District Park. • Sun Shuttle Dial -A -Ride: Sun Shuttle provides curb to curb paratransit service to 22 stops in the Marana/Avra Valley area for persons with, as shown on the right. • Vanpool: Commuter vanpools allow groups of employees to self - organize and lease a vehicle from Sun Tran to operate a carpool service, providing a flexible transit solution for those trips not well served by more conventional fixed route service.

Sun Tran tracks dozens of performance indicators and routinely analyzes the data to improve those metrics and stay competitive with peer systems benchmarks, including ridership by route. Table 5-1 outlines the total number of boardings on routes that connect to Marana from May 2022 - April 2023 per Sun Tran's Monthly Operations Report. As the table shows, ridership varies month to month. Over the one-year span, five of the seven routes listed have experienced an increase in ridership. Route 16 had the largest decrease in ridership with a 9% decrease from May 2022 to April 2023.

Barriers that interfere with first and last mile connections should be addressed and play a role in determining the most advantageous locations for transit stops. First/Last Mile Connections Walking and biking are complementary to transit, as every transit rider is either a pedestrian or a bicyclist at some point of their trip. For example, a rider must first walk, bike, drive, or roll themselves to and from the nearest bus stop. This is commonly referred to as "first/last mile". Some riders have a short walk from a parking lot and others have a longer walk or ride from their home, office, or shopping center. The majority of bus stops in Marana have direct sidewalk connections. Some bus stops, however, lack sidewalk connections or sidewalks present are in poor condition, making it difficult for users to access the bus, particularly those that use a wheelchair or mobility device. During future phases of the project, special detail will be given to address first/last mile connectivity along corridors. Transit Stop Amenities Amenities can include stop signage, bus shelters, benches, timetables, trash cans, bike racks, and more. Transit shelters are important to improving rider satisfaction as they improve a rider's perception of safety, provide an area to wait during hot summer days or during rain, and help riders recognize bus stop locations. Currently, several stops in Marana lack a shelter and are currently either just a sign, or a sign with a bench. Marana Transportation Master Plan Sun Tran bus at Silverbell Road/Crossroads Park Bus Stop The Ina Road/Camino de Oeste lacks shelter and lighting for passengers waiting for the bus to arrive Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet September 3, 2024 Page 412 of 580 95 PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 96 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 413 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 Marana Town Cou S GOODS MOVEMENT TODAY Another major function of the transportation system is to move goods and services for commercial purposes. The efficient movement of freight, goods, and packages is extremely important to Marana and the region's economic prosperity. This section outlines existing conditions in relation to the movement of goods in and through the Marana planning area. Existing Truck Routes Currently, the Town of Marana does not have a formally designated truck route designation in place; however, Marana does have some freight -related regulations. According to Marana Ordinance's the following regulations are in place: • Ordinance 12-3-12: Commercial trucks and oversized vehicles shall not be parked on a residential -area public street at any time, except while actively carrying on the activity for which the truck or vehicle is designed. • Ordinance 12-9: It is unlawful to operate or move any overdimensional vehicle on a town street without a special permit issued by the town. In addition, 1-10 is included in the FHWA's Primary Highway Freight System (PHFS), which is a federal desgination for the most critical highway portions of the U.S. freight transportation system. During future phases of this plan, we will identifiy specific freight corridors in the Marana TMP to aid in addressing corridor needs. Where Trucks are Traveling Replica data provides truck usage estimates for vehicles classified by Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) as Class 4 or higher, which ranges from medium size city delivery trucks to large freight vehicles. Using Replica data, key routes heavily used by trucks can be identified. As illustrated in Figure 6-1, higher truck volumes can be found on freeways and several key arterials. Many of these corridors not only have high truck volumes, but also have high percentages of trucks. As illustrated in the figure, corridors with high truck usage include: • 1-10 corridor • Ina Road (Silverbell Road to Thornydale Road) • Tangerine Road (Tangerine Farms Road to east of 1-10) • Orange Grove Road (east of 1-10) • Tangerine Road (east of Camino de Oeste) • Silverbell Road (Cortaro Farms Road to Coachline • Twin Peaks Road (Coachline Boulevard to Camino de Boulevard) Manana) • Thornydale Road (Ina Road to Orange Grove Road) • Cortaro Farms Road (Silverbell Road to Hartman Lane) In addition, the 2022 ADOT Statewide Freight Plan identified the I-10/Cortaro Road TI as a recurring urban congestion bottleneck that may substantially impact cargo movement. 98 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 415 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 x vu,ai Pinal Airpark Rd Airpark val County a County — — — — ----- D O 0 Hardin Rd F T Low Truck Volumes High Truck Volumes Study Network River, Wash, or Canal Union Pacific Railroad County Boundary Town of Marana Q Town of Marana Planning Area Park, Open Space, or Golf Course o 2 ASource: Town of Marana.

Marana Regional Airport The Marana Regional Airport (AVQ) is classified as a general aviation reliever airport for Tucson International. Located at the Airport are a variety of businesses, flight schools, and general aviation facilities. Located at the Airport is the Tucson Aeroservice Center that provides service for personal and business/corporate transportation, flight instruction and training, air ambulance, law enforcement, skydiving, and special events including fly -ins and air shows. According to the 2021 ADOT Arizona Aviation Economic Impact Study, AVQ has over 360 employees and had $17,283,000 earrings in 2021. The Marana Regional Airport Master Plan identified 35 airport development projects and $35.2 million (2016 dollars) in capital needs over the 20-year planning period as an outcome of the facility requirements and development alternatives portions of the Master Plan. In addition, the Marana Regional Airport's Strategic Business Plan identified air freight, trucking and logistics, and other air freight services as a growth opportunity for the airport. While the Airport currently does not support cargo aircraft, commercial and industrial development at the Airpark may increase vehicle and freight movements along Avra Valley Road. Pinal County Airpark Pinal County Airpark (MZJ) is a non -towered, Pinal county -owned, public -use, general aviation airport located 8 miles northwest of downtown Marana. MZJ is one of the largest aircraft storage facilities in the world, and on -airport tenants Ascent Aviation Service and Jetyard provide maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services for commercial passenger jets. These companies also provide "end -of -life" aircraft services such as disassembly and "part -out," where working parts of retired aircraft are removed for reuse in the repair and maintenance of active aircraft. The airport also supports military readiness via the adjacent Special Operations Command and Silverbell Army Heliport which trains more than 1,000 paratroopers each year. Similar to Marana Regional Airport, growth and development surrounding the Pinal County Airpark may increase vehicle and freight volumes to/from the Airpark. 100 Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 417 of 580 Marana Transportation Master Plan September 3, 2024 A Marana Town Council Regular Meeting Agenda Packet Page 418 of 580 September 3, 2024
