GLOSSARY <br />Traffic conditions: The state of traffic flow and <br />congestion on roadways, often assessed based <br />on factors like volume, speed, and density of <br />vehicles. <br />Traffic congestion: The condition of excessive <br />traffic volumes or slow speeds on roadways, <br />often resulting in delays and reduced efficiency <br />of transportation systems. <br />Traffic monitoring devices: Equipment used to <br />collect data on traffic volume, speed, and other <br />parameters for transportation planning and <br />management. <br />Transit network: System of public <br />transportation services, including buses, <br />shuttles, and rail transit, designed to move <br />people within a region or area. <br />Transportation demand: The demand travelers <br />will make on the transportation system based <br />on the number and types of trips they will take <br />and the mode and routes they will use. <br />W <br />Weighted score: A composite score <br />assigned to each alternative based on the <br />relative importance or weight of different <br />evaluation criteria. Weighted scores help <br />prioritize alternatives based on their overall <br />performance against project objectives. <br />Wildlife connectivity: Refers to the ability <br />of wildlife to move across landscapes, <br />often impeded by roads and other barriers. <br />Assessments aim to determine how <br />transportation projects can impact wildlife <br />habitats and migration corridors. <br />VOLUME 1: FEASIBILITY REPORT 1-90 Corridor - Easton to Cie Elum Feasibility Study I xiii <br />
