USFS polices and regulations for vehicular activities should be recognized in planning for the <br />Pass. <br />2. The utilization of USFS roads/easements in the transportation system should be avoided. <br />Vl.3 Goal: Insure that the hierarchy of transportation in the Pass area is thoroughly compatible <br />with existing and expected HOV /mass transit/rapid transit connecting it to its markets. <br />Objectives: <br />1. Access to possible future high speed east/west transit should not be precluded. <br />2. The transportation needs of the Pass should be expressed and represented in all related <br />planning efforts by other agencies and groups. <br />3. The Department of Transportation plans for their rights-of-way should be researched. <br />Surplus right-of-way should be identified. <br />Vl.4 Goal: Reduce the number of single-occupancy vehicle trips to and within the Pass area. <br />Objectives : <br />1. Incentives to encourage ride sharing should be developed. Ski instructors, ski patrol, <br />employees and season pass holders should be targeted as prime candidates for car-pooling. <br />A ride-sharing information network should be developed. Employee parking should be <br />limited to remote locations using shuttle service. <br />2. Provision of transit and/or shuttle service to the Pass should be explored and encouraged. <br />3. Shuttle bus stops should be provided at commercial centers, residential areas, and ski areas. <br />The shuttle should loop through all activity centers. <br />VI.S Goal: Create a transportation structure, which is adaptable to changing conditions, be they <br />seasonal, economic, climatological or demographic. <br />Objectives: <br />1. Future development, both commercial and residential, should address snow removal with <br />respect to vehicle traffic. <br />a. Roads should have adjacent snow storage readily available. <br />Kittitas County <br />Comprehensive Plan <br />December 2016
