Trees Study Spotlight
Trees Study Spotlight
The project team is currently evaluating the five remaining multimodal roadway alternatives. As part of this evaluation, nearly 30 different criteria are being considered, including Performance, Social, Economic and Environmental factors. The project team has separated criteria into two categories: 1) distinguishing criteria that contain results that vary amongst alternatives, and 2) non-distinguishing criteria that contain results that are the same or similar amongst alternatives. This Study Spotlight addresses the non-distinguishing criterion of impacts to trees associated with each of the remaining alternatives and discusses the unique opportunities the project offers to enhance the urban forest and associated ecosystems.
