The City is currently conducting planning for the City’s future transportation needs in the development and presentation of the proposed 2040 Major Transportation Plan (MTP). This long-range transportation planning effort is a continuation of Murfreesboro 2035, a comprehensive planning effort for the City. The Murfreesboro 2035 Comprehensive Plan was recently adopted by the Murfreesboro Planning Commission with the exception of “Chapter 3: Mobility (Transportation)”. Before Chapter 3 can be written, the City needs to adopt an updated Major Transportation Plan. Background According to the Federal Census, the population of Murfreesboro was approximately 68,816 in 2000 and 108,755 in 2010. The US Census estimates the population of the City of Murfreesboro to have been 131,947 in July of 2016. The existing Major Thoroughfare Plan (2025 Major Thoroughfare Plan) was ratified in 2003. It was later updated in 2005 to reconcile the Plan with Rutherford County’s Long Range Transportation Plan, and finally in 2008 to realign Manson Pike/Fortress Boulevard. The City’s current 2025 Major Thoroughfare Plan has served the City well and, as with previous MTPs, it needs to be revisited in order to continue to be an effective transportation plan. The proposed 2040 Major Transportation Plan represents a collaborative effort over the past year between Neel-Schaffer, Inc. and Kendig Keast Collaborative. The Murfreesboro 2035 Comprehensive Plan’s recommended future land use map served as the underlying land use for the transportation planning effort. That land-use information coupled with 2014 traffic counts and projected traffic volume growth was evaluated for impact on our existing roadway network. Future transportation projects were evaluated for their potential benefit to address transportation network deficiencies. The resulting project recommendations are included as the 2040 Major Transportation Plan. The proposed 2040 Major Transportation Plan will incorporate many of the unbuilt street projects from the existing 2025 Major Thoroughfare Plan as well as adding new street projects. The 2040 Major Transportation Plan is a tool to be used by the City and developers to reference when preparing subdivision plats and development plans to see if right-of-way should be dedicated. When the plan is adopted, the official map will be available to real estate companies, developers, engineers, and the general public via the Register of Deeds Office, the Library, and in the Planning Department. Public Input The City was divided into four different zones and a public meeting was held in each quadrant to gain public input about the proposed plan and the transportation improvements that need to be done throughout the community. The City’s Transportation Department, Engineering Department and Planning Department attended these meetings and provided guidance to Neel-Schaffer throughout the outreach process. Next Steps The Planning Commission needs to conduct a public hearing on the proposed 2040 MAJOR TRANSPORTATION PLAN and consider adoption of the recommended plan. The purpose of the public hearing is to get the public’s input about the recommended road improvement projects. If adopted by the Planning Commission, the City Council will be asked to pass a resolution in acknowledgement and support of the 2040 Major Transportation Plan, which will then be recorded in the Register of Deeds Office. After the Planning Commission adopts a new Major Transportation Plan, Neel- Schaffer and Kendig Keast Collaborative will write “Chapter 3: Mobility (Transportation)” of the 2035 Comprehensive Plan which will be considered for ratification at some time in the future. A separate public hearing will be required for Chapter 3 before it can be ratified.  \ ~\ 1 I \ L----~ , I \ j'\ -- \ \, /' ~ --- I-~ -- - I .. -·------ ~---~ I i ,_ ~~ / Rec ommended .
