Projects & Investment Strategies
Key Findings
The Proposed Plan’s investments in active transportation, along with key transit enhancement projects, have the potential to significantly increase the share of trips made by bicycling and walking. These shifts will move transportation in Napa County towards a more sustainable and healthy future. New transit trips (beyond those expected due to population growth) have the greatest potential to reduce VMT and person hours of delay. Current Motorized Transportation Mode Shares
Over 100 projects have been identified through a collaborative process among the cities, the County, NVTA, and other stakeholders to meet the goals and objectives for the transportation system. The projects have been characterized by their relevance to the goals. Projects were evaluated on how they might influence the performance of the transportation system over the Plan’s horizon.
