Priority Corridors for LRTP Needs Assessment – FFY 2014  Not applicable Chapter 6: Planning Studies 13262 Central Transportation Planning Staff Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization 0% $70,000 Not applicable Corridor analysis is a logical way to approach transportation studies in the region. Possible corridors of critical and strategic concern might best be viewed in a programmatic way. An arterial management roadway improvement effort would recommend conceptual improvements for corridors that the Congestion Management Process (CMP) and the Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) identified as part of the needs assessment process. These corridor improvements could be recommended to implementing agencies and funded through various federal, state, and local sources, separately or in combination. 

This project would constitute an additional phase of the Priority Corridors for Long-Range Transportation Plan (LRTP) Needs Assessment project, which was included in the FFY 2013 UPWP.

A particular corridor or several small sections of multiple corridors could be selected. This list, based on the LRTP needs assessment, includes examples of candidate locations, some of which may already be under study.

• Route 9 in Framingham, Natick, and Southborough (West Corridor)
• Route 30 in Framingham (West Corridor)
• Mystic Valley Parkway in Medford (North Corridor/Central Area)
• Route 203 in Boston (Southwest Corridor/Central Area)
• Route 145 in Boston and Winthrop (Northeast Corridor/Central Area)
• Route 37 in Braintree (Southweat Corridor)
• Route 16 in Newton and Wellesley (West Corridor)
• Route 3A in Quincy and Weymouth (Southeast Corridor)
• Route 16 in Chelsea and Revere (Northeast Corridor/ Central Area)
• Route 140 in Wrentham (Southwest Corridor)
• Route 138 in Stoughton and Canton (Southwest Corridor)
• Route 1 in Norwood and Dedham (Southwest Corridor)
• Route 3/3A in Burlington and Woburn (North Corridor)
• Route 60 in Arlington (Northwest Corridor)
• Route 140 in Franklin (Southwest Corridor)

Note: Corridors are listed roughly in priority order according to traffic flow.
