This area of Moscow has grown considerably in the past several vears and has become a major collector for other major Intersections throughout the city. Moscow city staff, Safe and Drug Free Schools personnel and school staff studied the area in depth over the past four years and produced a substantlal report to support the Ideals of sustainable and safe transportation. The focus of the report was to develop practical recommendations that combine safe routes to schools with sustainable transportation and community desi1n, and to provide guidance for resources for future projects and programs within the traffic study area. ft wlll be important to use this report as guidance for project development. The area around Moscow Middle School not only serves age students, but In the morning and afternoon, the school ls a pedestrian collection point for many elementary students moving to and from four neighboring elementary schools. Fourteen Moscow School District bus routes also use the location to collect and t ransfer students to all of the other city schools, includin1 two charter schools, a private school, two more elementary schools and Moscow High School. After school, the Moscow Middle School campus becomes the hub of the community as It contains the only competition athletic fie Ids In the Moscow School District. Almost daily, multiple activities take place simultaneously on this 15 acre parcel Including soccer, football, baseball, track and and Indoor activities such as volleyball, wrestling, fitness activities and basketball. The school also contains public rooms for concerts, meetings and other events which happen concurrently with the athletfc practices and events. All of these uses Increase the amount of traffic on streets adjacent to the middle school as well as In the two parking lots. safety concerns e1dst mainly due to poor visibility primarily In the lot named the "'lower tennis court lot". The greatest concern in the parking lot Includes haphazard crosswalks that pass In front of, and beside moving cars and school buses. Children and grown pedestrians are often confused and cross the parking lot and street in an unsafe manner. Drivers are also unsure whether pedestrians are going to cross in front or beside them and hence, the driver does not always stop. The Safe Routes to Scnool study referenced at the beginning of this letter provides recommendations for the lower tennis court lot Including, but not lfmited to: • A raised sidewalk with vegetation bisecting the lot which would accommodate emergency-vehicle access with a portion to be kept clear of parking and vegetation. • A raised vegetated median on street just west of the main entrance to Moscow Middle School that would provide a mechanism to constrict the lanes to provide traffic calming. Page 9 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- • The crosswalk crossing from street from the main parking lot could be converted into a raised aosswalk as a traffic calming measure. • Traffic bulbs at strategic locations to identify tile end of parking areas and the of cross-walk locations would not only calm traffic, but provide for safer pedestrian crossing. After working In this location for the past thirty-one years, I have watched countless near miss accidents and Injury accidents. Over the years, I worked with the City of Moscow, Avista Utilities and other agencies to provide flashing and additional street lights In the area, but the growth and traffic in this part of the city has outgrown the tr;,ffic controls that eldst. I fully support any renovations and updates that can be provided for this critical project. Our deserve the best we can give them, and through this grant we will provide a safe lociltion for pedestrians and drivers alike. Dale Kleinert, Superintendent Moscow School District Page 1 0 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- July 27, 2013 To Whom it May Concern university of Idaho Physical Education Building, Room 101 PO Box 442401 Moscow ID 83844-2401 Phone: [PHONE REDACTED] Fa><: [PHONE REDACTED] [EMAIL REDACTED] This letter is to support the City of Moscow's application for Community Choices for Idaho project for enhanced active travel modes and vehicular safety focusing on the Moscow Middle School. The University of Idaho Movement Sciences department worked in partnership with the City of Moscow and the Moscow School District the past six years as the non-infrastructure component of the highly impactful Safe Routes to School (SR2S) Program. Two years ago the city, schools and the University of Idaho Safe Routes to School program identified the Middle School as an area requiring substantial improvements to increase safety and active travel modes. The University of Idaho engineering students studied the area extensively and developed prototype plans for school site improvements. The plan was presented to school and city engineering leadership and there was common agreement that these changes were greatly needed. This funding would allow the city and school to work together in a joint effort make the school and area safer and enhance all modes of active travel. The Middle School recently changed from a 7th-9th grade to a 6th-8th grade school configuration. The existing potential points of conflict between heavy traffic congestion in the area surrounding the school and the school parking lot is greater now with younger, smaller students. As there is one Middle School in the area, students are coming from all points in Moscow to attend school. This project includes important traffic calming measures, safer pedestrian and biking crossing, a safer, less congested parking Jot and other features that will separate vehicles from children. The Middle School area also serves as a community hub for many activities including the popular Eggan Youth Center, tennis courts, and sporting fields on both sides of the project area on Street. The Middle School is home to the main gym/field house for all high school and middle school sport activities, drawing hundreds of people and cars out for sporting events, including young less experienced drivers. Not only would this project greatly benefit the Moscow community, it would serve as a model for effective and important school site planning for active travel for the multitude of schools and organizations that take part in sports and other large events occurring on the school grounds. To enrich education through diversity the University of Idaho is an equal opportunity/o.ffinnativc action employer Page 1 1 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- One of the of the Moscow SR2S program is the partnership between active citizen groups and the University of Idaho. The city is able to tap into the creative energy of students and also mentor them in the practical application of project planning and implementation. Funding this project would provide benefits beyond safer travel modes; the project has the potential to ignite the passion for active travel among University of Idaho engineering, planning, architecture and health and wellness students. As a professor at the University of Idaho, I witness the transformation that occurs in students when they have the opportunity to work alongside professionals and make meaningful contributions to real world projects. Please let me know if I can answer any questions or be of further support for this effort. Moscow is greatly indebted to the support that the Idaho Department of Transportation has provided to increase safety and to transform Moscow in a more biking and walking friendly community.

It directs motorists to take a certain path, which reduces conflict points simply by limiting path options. For instance, under the current striping and alternative 1, a vehicle making a U-turn can take any number of paths depending on the vehicle's turning radius. This can be confusing to other drivers in the vicinity and could cause a collision if other drivers expect the vehicle to do something else. In contrast, the traffic circle directs the vehicle to take a very specific path, thereby reducing confusion and the risk of vehicles colliding. The conflict points that do exist are at small angles, reducing crash severity. The current risk of a vehicle striking a bicyclist is reduced by bringing vehicles around the traffic circle rather than allowing a sharp U-turn. The difficulties with the parking lot center are perhaps most effectively managed in by blocking access with the divided lot alternative in Figure 7 d. Guidance is much more intuitive, there is only one conflict point, and turning radii meet or exceed the 29-ft. minimum. Additionally, through traffic no longer poses a hazard to bicyclists. This is also the alternative with the greatest potential for green space, making it perhaps the most aesthetic choice. While this alternative is the most restrictive on parking lot functionality, it is also the most effective at addressing the multiple challenges at the parking lot center. Page 33 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- III. Lower Parking Lot The lower parking lot is the current location for bus turnarounds for drop-offs and pick-ups. Currently there are no restrictions on using the facility for parking, which occasionally results in buses being unable to access the lot. A crosswalk extends most of the southern boundary of the lot then crosses D St. at a diagonal. The current striping, which contains 55 spaces, can be seen in Figure 10a. One safety concern with the current layout is children running across the crosswalk, which runs along the front of the parking lot and diagonally across the road, in front of buses and cars that cannot see them. Some potential solutions to this problem are installing a mirror on the corner where buses exit to give bus drivers a better view of small children. Additionally, the alternatives include changing the crosswalk to an shape that crosses both directly across D St. and along the front of the parking lot, eliminating the diagonal design. This would encourage children who want to cross D St. to do so before the parking lot, minimizing the number of children crossing in front of the buses and cars that are using the parking lot as well as connecting students to the proposed pick-up / drop-off zone on the east side of the parking lot in front of the tennis courts. The diagonal crosswalk is also dangerous because drivers who see children on the crosswalk along the parking lot are unsure if the child is going to continue across D St. and are therefore unsure whether they need to stop. The shaped crosswalk would eliminate confusion, making it clear to drivers on D St. that they must yield to the pedestrians. Another safety concern with the lower parking lot is that there is not restricted access, meaning that drivers can enter and exit along the entire front of the parking lot, creating a much larger conflict zone for pedestrians, cyclists, and other drivers. Designated access points would provide pedestrians a safe space to use the crosswalk and would provide clear access points. A barrier along the front of the lot allowing only two entrances/exits so that buses would still be allowed to use the lot for turning around would minimize these conflicts. This could be accomplished by installing concrete blocks at the back of each space, or preferably, by providing a sidewalk with a crosswalk on either end to give pedestrians a safer and more comfortable crossing. A rendition of this can be seen in Figure 11. Shown in Figure 10b, alternative 1 provides 54 spaces and restricts parking in spaces that would inhibit bus access during select hours. An example pavement marking for the restriction is "NO PARKING 7AM-5PM." Shown in Figure 10c, alternative 2 proposes a walkway around the east and north ends of the parking lot to encourage students to use the school's front doors, reducing pedestrian traffic in the parking lot, and introduces a 4-ft wide raised area with vegetation on the south edge. This enhances protection for pedestrians crossing the lot and provides greenery. These safety and aesthetics improvements come at a cost to capacity, leaving the lot with 38 spaces.

For our sample assessment tool we worked off the model set by the AZ Checklist and created a tool to be completed by a team of multiple members representing different specializations. Our tool is divided into five sections to minimize confusion: street profile, intersections, school site, programs and policies, and neighborhood assessment. Each of the five sections is worth 20% of the overall rating and the questions in each section are weighted, based on importance, to add up to 20 points. Each section addresses pedestrian and bicycle needs to some extent as well as vehicular needs. In addition to the total score, each section rates the school based on these three modes so that the school can evaluate whether it is favoring one mode or another. We scored both McDonald Elementary School and Moscow Jr. High using the new assessment tool. The complete assessments are provided in Appendix C, but the results are summarized in Table 3. McDonald Elementary scored 55.5 out of a possible 100 points. The programs and policies section scored the best, as the City of Moscow has implemented several pedestrian friendly programs. The neighborhood section was also positive, even with such low density. This is because of good pedestrian connectivity even though there is only one street to access McDonald Elementary. The school's worst two categories are intersections and school site, where access was markedly the most in need of improvement. Shown in Table 4, the transportation mode analysis revealed approximately the same score (by percent) for pedestrians and bicycles, with a lower score for vehicles. Moscow Jr. High scored about the same as McDonald Elementary, with 54 overall points. Sharing with McDonald Elementary a high score in programs and policies, its other strong category was intersections. The neighborhood category was marginal, with low scores in both density and connectivity. The street profile and school site categories were alarmingly low, which does not come at a surprise. Many of the problems observed at the Jr. High fit into these two categories, as do many of the recommendations in this paper. In transportation mode analysis, the scores were fairly well distributed between the three modes, with pedestrians lagging in terms of the percentage of possible points.

The recommendations that came about from this project are specific to Moscow Junior High School and McDonald Elementary School. These recommendations were presented to each of the schools and their communities to educate administrators, faculty, and parents and students. The Google Maps portion of the project is also available to the public. The new school assessment tool created by the graduate students is a prototype which better matches Idaho schools and can be changed as Idaho Safe Routes to School sees appropriate. In the future this tool could be web-accessible to Idaho schools. We realize these suggestions have costs involved and won't come free. However, we feel that the increased safety to students and parents would outweigh any costs. Schools in Moscow and the Safe Routes to School program can use this report as a starting point for requesting grant monies to achieve the suggestions and recommendations associated with each school.

Task Descriptions The following tasks were completed to provide children and parents in Moscow with information on safe biking and walking to area schools and to also begin the process of creating a new assessment tool for schools in Idaho. Task 1 : Assess two schools in Moscow Two groups of one engineer and one planner were formed to assess McDonald Elementary and Moscow Jr. High School. Genny and Karie chose to assess McDonald Elementary and Morgan and Christopher chose to work with Moscow Jr. High School. The current state of Idaho assessment (I-STOP) method and AZ checklist were completed for each school. Problems and details of the areas around the schools were noted. Task 2: Suggestions for fixing the problems found during assessment After assessing the problems that exist at each school, and meeting with the principals from both schools, a variety of suggestions were made to remedy the problems on each campus. Karie and Genny came up with suggestions for McDonald Elementary, including figures showing the school before and after the suggestions would be implemented. Morgan and Christopher made suggestions for Moscow Jr. High School that also include diagrams portraying before and after accounts of the school. Task 3: Provide assessment results A summarization of the school assessments will be made for parents, students, teachers and principals to review. The suggestions for possible solutions to the problems will be included. An important part of this project is being aware of what parents and students think about the routes to their schools and what things they want changed or kept the same. In order to hear parent, teacher and student feedback, the group will give an Page 43 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- educational presentation of the assessment results that parents, students and teachers can attend. This will allow the group to show what they did during the assessments, explain the assessment checklists and discuss solution ideas with the parents and teachers. The date and time of the educational presentation is December 6 for Moscow Jr. High and December 8 for McDonald Elementary. Task 4: Create online maps for the public Oniine maps of both Moscow Jr. High and McDonald Elementary were created using Google Maps. These maps show where sidewalks and crosswalks exist. They show ifthere is a crosswalk attendant present and where. They also show where parking lots and bus lanes are on each campus. Some walking paths and bike parking areas are shown for student and parent knowledge. These maps were created using Google Maps so that the public could find and use them for pedestrian and biking safety for each school. They are there for parents of current students, parents of new students or the students themselves. By showing where sidewalks, crosswalks and bike area exist, we hope students will take safer routes to use these amenities. Task 5: Create draft of improved Idaho assessment tool Using sections and information from the Idaho I-STOP assessment and the AZ Checklist assessment, a new assessment tool was created. This new assessment tool was produced by combining and altering questions from the I-STOP and AZ Checklist assessments that the graduate students both liked and disliked, respectively. A simple draft was created and is presented in the Appendix C of this report. Task 6: Give final presentation On December 13, a 40-minute presentation of this project will be provided to the UI class, summarizing the work completed throughout the fall 2010 semester. Page 44 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- Appendix B: Input from Moscow Jr. High In order to understand safety issues present at the school and determine possible solutions, our group observed the Jr. High during both peak and non-peak hours several times both in October and November. We also met with the Moscow Jr. High principal Mr. Hill on October 11. During our meeting with him we determined that the greatest concerns of the Jr. High were the safety of the main parking lot and bus area, drivers on D St. where students are crossing, and the congestion created due to sporting events at the school. An outline of the issues discussed with Mr. Hill is listed below. • Bus drop off and main parking lot are the main concerns. The parking lot is most active from 8-8:20 am and from 3-3:25 pm; school is open from 7:30 am-3:30 pm • Where kids park their bikes is right next to the parking lot and they get on the bikes and then j et out into the parking lot without looking (idea for a bike path?) • The "lower kingdom" lot next to the tennis courts is striped for parking, but it is used for a turnaround area for the buses • Main cross walk in front of the school on D street: right at the bottom of the hill-cars are at fast speed when they • Sporting events and other activities produce unwanted behavior: cutting through the parking lot to E St., confusion about where to park, and the number of parking spaces • Idea to cut the south lot and north lot with a fence to discourage cutting through • Other areas of concern: students walking through campus to go to other schools in Moscow Page 45 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- Page 46 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- Appendix C: Assessment Tool Review of the Arizona Checklist and I-Stop Assessment This review looks at the problems and recommendations for both of the assessments that have been tested and reviewed, the Arizona Checklist and the I-Stop Neighborhood Assessment, for how they could better serve Idaho schools. We found that the several pages of information at the start of the AZ Checklist create confusion rather than simplifying the process; the beginning should be revised to have a much shorter introduction, similar to the I-Stop Assessment. The format for the revised assessment tool is similar in nature to the Arizona Checklist, which currently requires a board with members in each of the following categories: technical/engineering, school district, principle/assistant principal, and recommends members from the PTA/PTO, community, city, police, and health field. Another format would be to create a tool with separate sections that could be filled out by different representatives from each category, including parents, students, and crossing guards who are well aware of different issues. The user should also have to select a school type when they start the assessment since the requirements for schools differ between an elementary school and a high school. This difference is not addressed in the I-STOP Assessment and is done in a confusing, question-by-question basis in the AZ Checklist. Additionally, each checklist could be done for different seasons because lighting and weather changes and affect visibility for drivers and pedestrians as well as safety of crosswalks. Concerning content, the current checklists focus primarily on safety, not on pedestrian or bike access or connectivity and health issues, which are equally important and something that a future assessment might need to address. Some safety issues that need to be addressed in the assessments include asking not only if a school speed zone is in place but how often it is enforced by the police, and the flashing beacons section, which should include categories of flashing beacons, with point values based on the presence of different beacons. There is no health section in the Neighborhood Assessment, and the health section of the AZ checklist does not have a predetermined score, which is something that needs to be considered if the scoring component is going to be included. The sections on crosswalks consider all crosswalks beneficial, however, there are safety concerns associated with crosswalks that are not adequately marked. Crosswalks make pedestrians feel safe and act less cautiously, however, without additional markings they can often be more dangerous because car are less aware of the crossing. The assessments should not consider crosswalks a benefit unless there are extra markers such as flashing lights or signs to alert drivers. The assessments also need to include truncated Page 47 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- dome pads for ADA ramps, ramp grade, and vertical lip between road surface and ramp for intersections and crosswalks, which are part of ADA ramp specifications. Overall, we found that the AZ checklist was more oriented to direct infrastructure and access directly around the school while the I-Stop Neighborhood Assessment looks at each street around the school and goes into more depth about certain characteristics. Because of this the AZ checklist, particularly the Remedial Pedestrian and Bicycle Signals Section, is less likely to be applicable for small towns in Idaho (i.e. focuses on freeways, 4- lane streets, 40mph speed limits, etc.) and should be revised to reflect this if it will be used in Idaho. However, the rating system used in the Arizona Checklist is very good at setting a rating scale and determining the overall score of the school zone for pedestrian, bicycle, and vehicular access. The Neighborhood Assessment is much more subjective in its ratings and less good at assessing the school overall. A new assessment that combined the Neighborhood Assessment's street segments evaluation with the pedestrian and biking sections from the AZ Checklist and reorganized them to reduce confusion and redundancy would be the most beneficial.

The funding we have received in the past has assisted the City in meeting the goals of our ADA Transition Plan for facilities in the public right of way and to provide safe routes for children to walk or bike to school. The current project request for Street and the Moscow Middle School will create a safe travel zone for 550+ students in addition to those students that change buses to go to other schools in the school district. The Moscow Middle School is also used by many other students in the district for athletic events as the soccer, baseball, football, and tennis facilities are all located on this campus. The City of Moscow has made it a priority to construct safe and accessible infrastructure in school zones and therefore we are committed to provide the necessary match for the project at the Moscow Middle School. We anticipate the match will not exceed $40,000 which will be proposed for City Council approval in the FY1 4 and FYl S budget years. If you have any questions or need additional information, please feel free to contact me.

Applicant: City of Moscow, 206 East Third Street. PO Box 9203, Moscow ID 83843 2. Project Name: Moscow Middle School - Safe Routes to School · Safety Improvement Project 3. Project Manager: Alisa Stone. Grants Manager and Kevin Lilly, City Engineer 4. Contact Information for Project Manager: [EMAIL REDACTED] [PHONE REDACTED] and [EMAIL REDACTED] [PHONE REDACTED] 5. Has the Applicant previously completed a federal aid project? Yes 6. Does the Applicant acknowledge that receipt of funds requires compliance with several federal and state requirements, including but not limited to wage, equal opportunity, and environmental requirements? Yes Does the Applicant already have an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition Plan? Yes 7. Facility Information - Bicycle and Pedestrian Project Includes: 8 foot wide and 600 linear feet in length shared use pathway/sidewalk (concrete, curb, gutter, parking stops, and asphalt patch); 10 curb ramps, planned or existing curb radii varies 5-15 feet. The project is: part of an existing road. Standards used: AASHTO, ITD and Local. Any areas where facility will narrow to accommodate trees, signs or other obstructions: Yes, installing traffic median strips for traffic calming. Are there funds/personnel to maintain the facility after it Is constructed (describe)? Yes. City of Moscow Street Department. Does your community normally require sidewalks or other pedestrian(bicycle Improvements as a condition of the subdivision or site plan (explain). Yes. Subdivision Ordinance. 8. Describe why the proposed facility type shoulder, bicycle lane, sidewalk, pathway, etc.) and design is appropriate for the site and for the need(s) proposed to be served by the project: This Safe Routes to School Safety Improvement Project on Street and in the Moscow Middle School (MMS) parking lot is intended to increase student safety by decreasing speed of motorists on Street and on school premises. bringing greater separation between the motorist and pedestrian/bicyclist and to i ncrease visibility to travelers in the area to include students. parents, teachers, and bus drivers. etc. Page 75 of 82 ---PAGE BREAK--- In order to decrease motorist speed on Street, a "Road Diet" will be installed. The Road Diet will not decrease the number of lanes but will decrease the perceived lane width by installing median islands, curb extension "Bulb-Outs" and speed tables/raised crosswalks. The raised crosswalks increase visibility to motorists and set the pedestrians/bicyclists higher in relation to their surroundings, making them more noticeable. Median islands a nd curb extensions on Street will also be installed to create refuges for pedestrians and bicyclists to wait while traffic stops during crossings. Actuated high visibility/intensity crosswalk indicators on the curb extensions will also be installed. The curb extensions bring the students past parked vehicles and into the motorist's view while keeping them behind a full height curb. Greater motorist and pedestrian/bicyclist separation will also include upgrad ing infrastructure in the area by installing new sidewalks to connect to existing sidewalks, which will encourage pedestrian usage and discourage walking in the street. In the main parking lot of MMS, blind spots. high speeds. and cross-cut traffic will be eliminated by reconfiguring the parking isles in a staggered, offset formation with parking bumpers and installation of a traffic calming circle at the high conflict area. Parking lot Improvements will also include an 8-foot wide shared use sidewalk/pathway extending from Street on the north end to the south end of the lot at Street. All of these improvements combined total approximately 1,300 square yards of new sidewalk, 2,000 linea r feet of new curb, 2 new raised crosswalks, lU new AUA pedestrian/bicyclist curb ramps, 4 ne w solar power crossing beacons and 4,000 square feet of zero scape vegetated/green space along with new utility and pavement patching/sealing to support these alterations. The project request a lso includes a "Bicycle/Pedestrian Counter" to be installed at the entrance of Oylear pathway leading to Street, which con nects to the MMS parking lot. The counter will assist in collecting consistent and relia ble bicycle and pedestrian user data. Collecting the data will provide information to assist in future inrastructure development and to help the City provide safe and efficie.nt multi-modal travel corridors for all users, including pedestrians and bicyclist. 9.
