Chip,
As we discussed, for the FY14 grant, I requested the ridership data from
David Bruffy this morning. Also, as we discussed, I think the steps we
should take to get our recommendations to the WVDOH for the bike shelters
include this:
1. Compare the shelter locations listed in the FY14 grant with
MountainLine's ridership data to determine shelters we think have the most
potential for use.
2. Determine how much money in the grant will go toward the shelters and
number of shelters we can install. We stated $80,400 for 12 locations, but
these may change depending on:
- proposed SLMs and budget for them that we submitted to WVDOH
- number of shelters may increase due to funded shelters through
advertisement companies per Mountainline
- potential reduced construction and labor costs
3.Meet with Bike Board grant/mapping sub-committee to finalize priority
locations and/or rank all locations
4. Submit to City (Damien) in order to provide recommendations to WVDOH.
Thoughts, advice anyone? Let's get this done.
Thanks,
~Derek
