Map Updated Growth Concept Map and Transit Priority Network Map Tagline Correct text Text Map Policy Spread Map Spread Map Map Tagline Curb management is the flexible and efficient use of the public space between building fronts and the vehicular travel lanes along street edges; this is the space in which the movement of people and goods meets access. In order to utilize public curb space efficiently, clear guidance is needed to ensure curb management strategies are available to allow all users of the public realm adequate space in which to carry out their daily needs. Add note about Smart Trips now being part of Get There ATX In Austin, the Smart Trips neighborhood outreach program offers free transit adventures to reach residents how to use public transit for recreational trips (note: as of 2021 Smart Trips is known as Get There ATX) . Updated Sidewalk Prioirization Map New Policy - Roadway System Policy 6: Support streets as places where people and community engage in non-mobility activity: Recognize the diverse and expanding civic needs within our right-of-way and adaptive uses of the street Non-mobility Activity in Practice Roadway Capacity Projects Map Bicycle System Map Urban Trail System Map Project Connect Spread - Inital Investment & System Plan Updated Tagline: Pursue strategies and collaborate with regional partners to reduce ozone, particulate matter, and greenhouse gas emissions, including promoting sustainable transportation modes and improving traffic flow 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 ii iii xxv 28 42 50 56 86 95 96-97 98 108 122 129 194 Redline ID REDLINE ASMP Page Number Type Tagline 2021 ASMP Document Amendments Log 2/25/2022 Change Proposed Updated Tagline (AC.3): Use materials and methods that reduce carbon, conserve energy, limit waste, and support the Net-Zero Community Climate Goals Text Replace "Austin Community Climate Plan" with "Austin's Climate Equity Plan" where it is found Updating Climate Plan Highlight: Austin Community Climate Plan The Austin Community Climate Plan identifies over 130 actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the energy, transportation, and materials and waste sectors. In Travis County, approximately 35% of community-wide greenhouse gas emissions come from the transportation sector, and nearly 95% of the transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions in Travis County are from on-road vehicles (cars and trucks). Climate Equity Plan: In September 2021, City Council adopted the Austin Climate Equity Plan. The plan includes the bold and aggressive goal of equitably reaching net- zero community-wide greenhouse gas emissions by 2040 with a strong emphasis on cutting emissions by 2030. The Austin Climate Equity Plan sets goals across five focus areas: Sustainable Buildings, Transportation and Land Use, Transportation Electrification, Food and Product Consumption, and Natural Systems. Right now, on- road transportation and electricity used in buildings are our largest sources of emissions; however, since energy use in our city is becoming cleaner, the transportation sector is quickly becoming our number one source of emissions. New Air & Climate Policy 4: Increase the transportation network’s adaptive capacity. Future-proof our transportation infrastructure and operations to flexibly adapt to climate impacts New Collaboration Policy 8: Support larger City efforts for disaster preparedness and emergency response.

These standards guide the design and criteria for streets in Downtown Austin with the goal of ensuring appropriate distribution of ROW between roadway and sidewalk uses and prioritization of the pedestrian in our most urban spaces. Ensure new standards continue to prioritize pedestrians, consider updated public transportation, bicycle, and micromobility best practices, and balance the needs of a growing residential and employment center. Updated standards should include direction on lighting, wayfinding, shade, and micromobility storage and encourage active street level uses, in addition to transportation infrastructure. Modified Action Item (114): Develop and implement a lighting plan for all existing urban trails and shared use paths. Partner with Austin Energy to implement lighting along these trails and paths and develop a maintenance strategy. Modify Action Item 119: Integrate climate change considerations into decision- making for capital investments and improvements decision-making. Design for resilience to address climate change and other stressors using strategies such as enhancing designs where there is a higher risk of damage; designing roadways and sidewalks for weak soils and expansive clays; armoring bridges and roadways in flood prone areas; and making trails along creeks durable for the long term. Modify Action Item (120): Proactive maintenance schedules: Develop a proactive maintenance schedule for all transportation infrastructure that accounts for demographics, Priority Networks, and vehicular-volume projections. Updated street maintenance schedules should ensure that street maintenance anticipates, strategizes, plans and budgets for a sustainable level of service while also allowing access to perform the necessary maintenance. Schedules should include core infrastructure and appurtenances, and should be updated every 5 years based on updated forecasts. Redline ID REDLINE ASMP Page Number Type Change Proposed 2021 ASMP Document Amendments Log 2/25/2022 32 33 34 35 36 37 292 293 293 294 294 294 Action Item Action Item Action Item Action Item Action Item Action Item Modify Action Item (162): Test and evaluate delivery technology robots: Issue a Request for Information to test delivery technology robots in select neighborhoods to determine use rates and identify infrastructure issues.
