Comments:

As part of BrowardNEXT Phase 2, Broward County is examining ways to incorporate multimodal metrics into the transportation concurrency analysis required in the development review and approval process.

Through BrowardNEXT Phase 1, the Broward County Planning Council updated the Broward County Land Use Plan, which includes two policies that address multimodal level of service (Policies 2.18.1 and 2.18.2). These policies allow the use of the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) “urban infill area – person trip methodology"" in Activity Centers and certain redevelopment areas and require an assessment of integrated levels of service standards for bicycle, transit, and pedestrian facilities and services within Activity Centers and certain redevelopment areas by 2018.

BrowardNEXT's Highlighted Regional Issues includes a section on multimodal vision. This section includes STRATEGY MM-4 : Identify and implement a multi-modal level of service standard for redevelopment proposals.
