US 29 North Corridor Transportation Study

The Technical Memoranda are interim reports of work-in-progress on the US 29 North Corridor Transportation Study (the transportation element of Places 29) and are intended to address each portion of the transportation planning process. As such, the Technical Memoranda are written to provide documentation of various technical aspects of the work and are intended for a specific technical audience. Users of these documents are assumed to have the requisite familiarity with the technical aspects of transportation planning. Please note that the Technical Memoranda have been updated as of November 2005 and that a consultant response to CHART Committee comments is also available.

A synopsis of these Memoranda will be incorporated in the final Places 29 Master Plan documents with an explanation of the transportation planning process and how that process is integrated with the other aspects of Albemarle County's Neighborhood Model for preparation of the Master Plan.
