Project Description:  An added travel lanes project along a portion of the SR 23 corridor in St. Joseph County was planned by INDOT.  In order to assist with the design of this project, traffic projections were requested at 15 intersections for the years 2015, 2012, 2030, and 2032.  At these intersections, all inbound legs, including turning movements and outbound legs were considered.  The growth rates generated were used to project traffic data from 2008 to 2010, 2012, 2030, and 2032.  The traffic data was expressed in terms of average annual daily traffic (AADT), AM and PM design hour volumes (DHV), DHV as a percent of AADT, and the percentage of commercial vehicles for both AADT and DHV.

Project Description:  The Comprehensive Plan included a detailed inventory of existing conditions, statements concerning city-wide goals and objectives, and an analysis of projected future needs and recommendations to meet or exceed those needs.  The Comprehensive Plan is an environmental, physical and social evaluation tool which will provide the City of Vincennes with guidance necessary to achieve pre-determined future goals and objectives.  The Comprehensive Plan covers broad topics such as land use, environmental preservation (farmland preservation), housing needs, transportation and other public facilities, economic development, and town facilities (schools, parks, libraries, etc.).

Project Description:  Included in the Redevelopment Plan is an assessment and recommendations concerning the following items: downtown business conditions and land use, downtown park improvements, storm and sanitary sewers, electrical and other utility service, concrete curbs, sidewalks, lighting, and pedestrian and vehicular traffic.  This project required the organization and facilitation of two public working meetings.
