SUBJECT: Big Pine Key Cross Island Connector Study
Overview
At its regularly scheduled December 18, 2002, meeting, the BOCC will be given a presentation by
the County's traffic engmeenng and planning consultant firm on the findings and
recommendations of the Big Pine Key Cross Island Connector Study. The BOCC will be asked to
make a decision on the selection of a preferred alignment for a cross island connector. If the
BOCC approves a preferred alignment, the consultant and Growth Management Division staff will
move forward with the preparation of detailed preferred alignment plan, which will go into more
detail on the recommended alignment and will involve at least one community workshop.
Background and Initial Evaluation
The BOCC approved the preparation of the Big Pine Key Cross Island Connector Study in
Resolution 118-2002. The purpose of the study is to identify and evaluate alternatives for a cross
island connector road, north of V.S, Highway 1 on Big Pine Key, as proposed in the Livable
CommuniKeys community master planning process and the draft Habitat Conservation Plan.
The study was initiated in July 2002 with a kick-off meeting between the consultant, URS
Corporation Southern, and the study's Technical Steering Committee, The Technical Steering
Committee consists of Director of Growth Management, chairman, County Planning Director,
County Engineer, and representatives from the Florida Department of Community Affairs, Florida
Department of Transportation, and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
The Technical Steering Committee met four times during the course of the study and provided
input from the perspective of each member's respective agencies and specific expertise. The study
incorporated public input at a public workshop held on Big Pine Key on August 13, 2002, at a
Page 1 of3
public meeting before the Planning Commission in September, and at a Technical Steering
Committee meeting held on November 15,2002.
On September 11, 2002, the Planning Commission reviewed a draft Preferred Alignment Report
for the Big Pine Key Cross Island Connector. After taking testimony from the public, the Planning
Commission voted unanimously to recommend that efforts to establish a cross island connector be
abandoned and that necessary improvements be made to U.S. Highway 1 through three laning of
that facility to enhance local traffic and raise the level of service.
Subsequent to that meeting the Technical Steering Committee directed the consultant to prepare a
full draft alternatives report that incorporated public and staff comments including further
investigation of alternative alignments, In October 2002, the consultant prepared the draft
"Alternatives Evaluation Report" and "Appendices" as part of the Big Pine Key Cross Island
Connector Study, (Copies of these two large documents have been sent to the BOCC under
separate cover,)
Final Alternatives Evaluation
Due to the length and complexity of these documents and the need to move forward with specific
alternatives for consideration by the BOCC, the Chairman of the Technical Steering Committee
called a meeting of the committee on November 15, 2002. The purpose of this meeting was to
complete the evaluation and screening of alignment alternatives and provide specific options for
consideration by the BOCC. At that meeting, the Committee in consultation with the consultant
reviewed each viable alternative and made specific recommendations on the alternative alignments
and order of preference. (Minutes of the Technical Steering Committee meeting are presented in
Exhibit 1.)
In discussing the alternatives, the issue of removal of the barriers was brought up by County staff.
A copy of a memorandum from the Growth Management Division's legal counsel concerning
removal of any of the restrictive covenants on roads in Tropical Key Colony was presented to the
Committee (see Exhibit 2). This memorandum indicates that the restricted covenant requiring the
barriers could be revised subject to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service approval.
It was further discussed that the barriers were placed on these roads to obtain approval from the
Service to allow for the paving of the roads to bring them up to County standards. The U,S. Fish
and Wildlife Service representatives reiterated that the need for these barriers to mitigate impacts
on Key Deer was no longer relevant due to the results of the modeling work completed for the
HCP,
Subsequent to the meeting, the consultant prepared the enclosed "Alternatives Evaluation Report,
Revised Executive Summary," for the Big Pine Key Cross Island Connector Study, which
presents the specific findings and recommendations on alignment options and a "no build"
alternative based on its own evaluation and input from the Technical Steering Committee. The
proposed alternatives are listed in order of preference with the preferred alternative being a
Page 2 of3
..
combination of Alignment #1 (Harbor Lights Road/Lyttons Way/Hibiscus drive) and Alignment #2
(Main Street/24th Street).
Although the preferred alternative is a combination of Alignments #1 and #2, the Growth
Management Division staff and its transportation planning consultant recommend that due to the
permitting and acquisition problems with Alignment #2 (Main Street/24th Street) the County
proceed at this time with only Alignment #1 (Harbor Lights Road/Lyttons Way/Hibiscus Drive)
and address the other alignment at a later date. The strategy is to minimize unnecessary delays and
costs to the County and focus the energies of staff and consultant on preparing a detailed plan for
the alignment which has the greatest potential for implementation.
Recommendation
It is recommended that the Board of County Commissioners: 1) approve the preferred combination
alternative (combination of Alignments #l-Harbor Lights Road/Lyttons Way/Hibiscus Drive and
#2-Main Street/24th Street); 2) direct the staff and consultant to prepare for the Board's approval a
detailed a plan for Alignment #1; and, 3) that the planning/design process for the preparation of the
detailed alignment plan provide for adequate input from the Big Pine Key community.

Subject: Fourth Steering Committee Meeting Minutes - November 15,2002
The fourth Steering Committee meeting for the Big Pine Key Cross Connector was held on
Friday, November 15, 2002. The primary intent of this meeting was to review the Alternatives
Evaluation Report (AER) and to prepare for a presentation at the December BOCC meeting, In
addition to the Steering Committee members a few local residents were present at this meeting,
Following is a summary of items discussed at the meeting and their disposition. If you have any
questions, feel free to call me.
. USFWS cautioned that, other than Alignment # 1, some segments of the remaining three
west alignments have significant environmental issues that may cause considerable
delays in securing approval from permitting agencies. For example; all three alignments
require building on un-scarified land that were either purchased through CARL program,
or it is Tier I Key Deer Habitat and/or Pine Land.
URS explained that all alignments have some form of environmental, community and/or
engineering issues to be dealt with. The magnitude of the issues and the difficulty
associated with addressing these issues are being used as factors in the segment and
alignment evaluation process.
. County Engineer stated that having several cross island connectors will achieve the goal
better than only one connector. He suggested that in addition to building a cross island
connector, re-grading all gravel roadways should be proposed. Further, he does not favor
removing the barricades at the Journeys End / Sands Road intersection, because it will
affect many residents who live along Journeys End, unlike the removal of Harbor Lights
Road barricades which will affect only a few residents.
The proposed Alternative 5 consist of Alignments # 1 and # 3. Improving the roadways
(re-grading) is a Public Works function recognized and identified in the HCP. Not
removing the Journeys End barricades may be a good compromise to build consensus
among the residents.
. County staff noted that the numbers presented on the traffic table in Appendix C
contradict the traffic numbers presented on exhibits in Appendix D.
URS explained that the reason for the discrepancy is that the table reflects the raw
numbers from QRS Traffic Model and the numbers on the exhibits are adjusted model
numbers to reflect reasonable distribution of traffic volumes within the study network.
County staff requested that it should be explained in the report.
. USFWS suggested that a traffic monitoring program should be recommended with the
implementation of the preferred alternative.
The implementation details will consider adding the traffic monitoring task.
. County's Bicycle / Pedestrian Coordinator suggested that bike and pedestrian facilities
should be part of any cross island connector.
The implementation details will consider adding bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
. One of the residents suggested that the county should re-grade Lyttons Way / Harbor
Light Road corridor and monitor the traffic before implementing the cross island
connector. Another of the resident questioned why take the 'all or nothing' approach,
why not implement the east side connector and observe what the implications are before
implementing the west side connector.
County staff noted, that in order for the cross island connector to be affective it should
not be implemented piecemeal.
. The Steering Committee concurred with the study finding that the best cross island
connector will be a combination of Alignments # 1 and # 3, referred to as Alternative 5.
However, the anticipated permitting delays associated with some segments of this
alternative was recognized, and the committee recommended that Alternative 5 should be
implemented segment by segment, starting with the implementation of segments that has
no issues that may delay the implementation.
. The report is a technical document and has many details that may be confusing to the
BOCC and may misinform,
A revised Executive Summary will be prepared and submitted to the County Staff for
review by 11/22/02. This document will not exceed four pages and will include a
discussion of pros and cons of each alternative that was studied.

CROSS ISLAND CONNECTOR
Purpose
The primary purpose of a Cross Island Connector on Big Pine Key is to provide local easUwest access to and from
residential areas and local attractions. The residential areas north of U.S. 1 in Big Pine Key, namely Pine Channel
Estates, Tropical Key Colony, Sands Subdivision, Atlantic Estates, and Big Pine Cove do not have any reasonable
easUwest local street connections between them. U.S. 1, a major state arterial, currently functions as a local
connector between these residential subdivisions and also provides access from each of these subdivisions to the
area commercial center - Big Pine Plaza, located between Key Deer Boulevard and Wilder Road. This underscores
the need for a Cross Island Connector road on Big Pine Key to be a part of the overall transportation solution for the
island. Exhibit 1 represents the general traffic movement within and across Big Pine Key.
Backaround
In 2000, a community driven planning effort called the "Livable CommuniKeys Program" (LCP) was started on Big
Pine Key and No Name Key to address very specific needs of this unique island community. Primary among the
concerns expressed by the community was the desire for better roadways for the local residents. Twenty six percent
of the responses from one workshop identified improvements to the transportation system as the most important
community need. Among transportation improvements, constructing a cross connector was the number one choice
(28%) followed by improving the U.S. 1 / Key Deer Boulevard intersection (19%).
A deferral of the issuance of building permits began in 1994 on Big Pine Key, because of the traffic volumes, delay,
and level of service (LOS) on U.S. 1. The Cross Island Connector will provide temporary relief to congestion on U.S.1
and potentially will lift the moratorium for a period of time.
Alternative Roadwav Evaluation
Nearly 80 roadway segments (see Exhibit 2) were evaluated. The following factors were used in determining the
most suitable road segments for the Cross Island Connector.
. House Impact . Historic Sites . Travel Time . Business Impact . Segment Condition
. Segment Volume . Parcel Impact . Marsh Rabbit . Floodplain Impact . Ease of Acquisition
. Key Deer . Relative Cost . U.S. 1 LOS . Vegetation Impact . Community Impact
Although all forms of impacts are mitigatable except impact to Marsh Rabbit Habitat, the least desirable segments
based on most impact to the environment, community and/or engineering were eliminated. For example, the Pond
Lane segment between Ships Way and West Sandy Circle is undesirable due to Marsh Rabbit impact. Within the
same limits, all other impacts being more or less equal, the Lyttons Way segment was eliminated as oppose to the
Harbor Lights Road segment due to house and business impacts.
At the end of the evaluation 41 segments were discarded and 39 segments were identified as the most suitable
segments for the Cross Island Connector. Theses 39 roadway segments were combined to form four west corridors
and four east corridors. The east and west corridors each terminate at Wilder Road in the center of the island. A west
corridor and an east corridor were combined to form a Cross Island Connector alignment. The four alignments and the
'Do Nothing' option were further evaluated. The location of the potential Cross Island Connector alignments and an
evaluation are presented in the following pages. The alignments in the order of most preferred to least preferred are
as follows:
1. Harbor Lights Road / Lyttons Way / Hibiscus Drive
2. Main Street / 24th Street
3. Frontage Road
4. Journeys End / 22nd Street / Hammock Drive
5. Do Nothing
The Journeys End and the Frontage Road were ranked the least preferred alignments, because of increased
impacts to the existing commercial or residential communities, endangered species habitat, and wetlands. The 'Do
Nothing' alternative was ranked last, because it does not meet the need for a cross-island connector identified by the
community in the planning process and fails to provide any congestion relief on U.S. Highway 1.
A combination of alignments will result in lesser impacts on anyone street while meeting the desires of the local
residents. Therefore, an alternative alignment that combines the two most preferred alignments - Harbor Lights Road
/ Lyttons Way/ Hibiscus Drive alignment and Main Street / 24th Street alignment, is recommended as the preferred
alternative. Preference of a combined alignment was also reflected in the public input. Most residents (38% of the
respondents) favor the combined alignment.

#1 Harbor Liahts Road I Lvttons Way I Hibiscus Drive Alianment
Description: This alignment follows an existing public roadway corridor located approximately 0.4 miles north of
U.S. 1. On the west side it incorporates Harbor Lights Road, takes a short jog to the north on to West Sandy Circle,
then follows Lyttons Way, a short jog to the south on Key Deer Boulevard, and again onto Lyttons Way. On the east
side it incorporates Lyttons Way, takes a short jog north on to Ixora Drive, and then follows Hibiscus Drive. The
connection is between Ships Way (North end of Pine Channel Estates) in the west and County Road (North end of
Sands Subdivision) to the east. Improved access will be provided for local residents to the shopping center, post
office, churches, county parks and other facilities. Parts of Harbor Lights Road at the west end and the entire
Hibiscus Drive segment at the east end are paved, the remainder of this alignment is scarified or improved with
gravel. There is currently a barrier at Harbor Lights Road at the intersection with West Sandy Circle, which will have
to be removed. This alignment is estimated to cost approximately $600K.

Pros and Cons:
. Uses existing paved and unpaved scarified roadway segments, which makes this alignment the least in costs
and is easiest to permit and implement.
. Can be implemented without a Comprehensive Plan amendment or approval of the Habitat Conservation Plan.
. Has the least impact on Key Deer, because the corridor is already scarified.
. Provides the best congestion relief on U.S. 1 increasing the level of service to at least "C" for 5 to 7 years without
other improvements to that highway with the anticipated maximum number of vehicles per day (vpd) traveling the
route during peak season of 5,000 on the west side and 2,000 on the east side.
. Deters non-local traffic from accessing this roadway because of its distance from U.S. 1.
. Reduces outbound left turning movement from Ships Way, although total turning traffic volumes are anticipated
to increase at the U.S. 1 / Ships Way intersection.
. Passes by only nine scattered, existing homes on the west side with no homes physically impacted.
. Achieves the community's objective to provide a local cross island connection and is the most preferred (34% to
36% of survey respondents) alignment.
Issues:
1. Right-of-way acquisition - additional private lands with public access conservation easements must be acquired
for the public road.
2. Barrier removal - is a controversial issue among the residents of Tropical Key Colony and will require BOCC
approval.
3. Traffic calming - will require some form of traffic calming to curtail potential speeders
4. Intersection improvements- improvements are required at the U.S. 1 / Ships Way intersection to accommodate
higher traffic volumes.
5. Wetland permitting - mitigation for the filling of a small segment of wetlands at the western end of Harbor Lights
Road will be required.
#2 Main Street I 24th Street Alianment
Description: This alignment is located approximately 0.15 mile north of U.S. 1. On the west side it incorporates a new
east/west 900' segment (state and private owned), aligning with Enterprise Avenue across from Ships Way, adjacent
to the north property line of the mobile home park, then it takes a short jog to the south along an existing scarified
County property on the east side of the mobile home park, then follows an east/west segment on existing unscarified
County property, followed by a jog to the south on West Sandy Circle, South Sandy Circle, then a jog north on East
Sandy Circle, then follows a new east/west segment on existing scarified County property, a jog north on to Loma
Lane, a new east/west segment state owned adjacent to the north property line of the lumber business, then following
northeasterly an existing scarified state owned segment, and a new private owned segment between the two banks.
On the east side it incorporates scarified segments starting with 24th Street, a short jog north on to Pine Drive, then
Mac Court to join with Cunningham Lane. The connection is between Ships Way (Lower Pine Channel Estates) in the
west and County Road (Middle Sands Subdivision) to the east. Improved access will be provided for local residents to
the shopping center, post office, churches, county parks and other facilities. This alignment is estimated to cost
approximately $1.3M.

Pros and Cons:
. Requires clearing of critical Key Deer habitat in several of the segments of the alignment, located on
conservation lands owned by the state; however, this acquisition and clearing may be justified by providing a
needed fire break in these areas.
. Requires a comprehensive plan amendment and approval of the Habitat Conservation Plan.
. Provides some congestion relief on U.S. 1, increasing the level of service to at least "e" for at least 5 to 7 years
without other improvements to that highway with the anticipated maximum number of vehicles per day (vpd)
traveling the route during peak season of 4,000 on the west side and 2,000 on the east side.
. Deters most non-local traffic from accessing this roadway due to its distance from U.S. 1.
. Reduces outbound left turning movement from Ships Way, although total turning traffic volumes are anticipated
to increase at the U.S. 1 / Ships Way intersection.
. Passes by 21 existing homes on the west side and 12 existing homes on east side with no homes physically
impacted.
. Reasonably achieves the community's objective to provide a local cross island connection.
Issues:
1. Right-of-way acquisition - requires for specific segments the clearing and acquiring of sensitive Key Deer habitat
primarily owned by the state for conservation purposes, which makes permitting and acquisition a difficult and
time consuming process.
2. Traffic calming - will require some form of traffic calming to curtail potential speeders.
3. Intersection improvements - improvements are required at the U.S. 1/ Ships Way intersection to accommodate
higher traffic volumes.
4. Wetland permitting - mitigation for the filing of a small segment of disturbed wetland at the center of the
alignment near Key Deer Boulevard will be required.
#3 Frontaae Road Alianment
Description: This alignment is immediately adjacent to the U.S. 1 corridor. On the west side it incorporates Henry
Lane for approximately 300', then follows a new north/south unscarified segment on existing County property, then a
new easUwest segment within the U.S. 1 right-of-way, then a new north/south segment on undeveloped private
property between the two lumber businesses, a northeasterly existing scarified segment, and a new segment on
private property between the two banks. On the east side it incorporates a 600' new easUwest segment behind the
developed parcels. then a new north/south jog between developed parcels, then a new easUwest segment adjacent
to U.S. 1 (but not within the FOOT right-of-way), and connects to Avenue A. The connection is between Ships Way
(lower Pine Channel Estates) in the west and County Road (lower Sands Subdivision) to the east. Improved access
will be provided for local residents to the shopping center and the post office. This alignment is estimated to cost
approximately $1.1M.

Pros and Cons:
. Uses existing paved and unpaved scarified roadway segments, except for a small segment, making this
alignment the third least expensive, but still almost twice as much as the Harbor Lights Road / Lyttons Way /
Hibiscus Drive alignment.
. Requires a comprehensive plan amendment and approval of the Habitat Conservation Plan.
. Requires clearing of critical Key Deer habitat in several segments of the alignment, located on conservation
lands owned by the state.
. Reduces commercial local trips from US 1 as it provides direct access to businesses; however, not as
convenient for local residents as other alignments, because of its distance from established residential
neighborhoods.
. Provides some congestion relief on U.S. 1, increasing the level of service to "C" for 5 to 7 years without other
improvements to that highway.
. Attracts most non-local traffic because of the location abutting and paralleling U.S. 1.
. Creates operational and safety problems with the U,S. 1 intersections.
. Passes by very few residential parcels, only two of which has homes with no homes physically impacted.
. Impacts business access and parking, which may have deleterious impact on some businesses.
. Preferred by only 2% - 6% of the survey respondents.
Issues:
1. Right-of-way acquisition - requires clearing and acquiring of sensitive Key Deer and wetlands habitat primarily
owned by the state for conservation purposes and transfer from FOOT of surplus right-of-way which makes
permitting and acquisition a very difficult and time consuming process.
2. Traffic operations - will result in operational and safety problems with U.S. 1 intersections that must be
addressed to obtain FOOT approval for this alignment.
3. Business Impact - will result in significant functional problems for businesses unless access and parking issues
are satisfactorily resolved, further complicating highway design and construction of the facility.
4. Bicycle Path - in some locations the Frontage Road cannot be accommodated within the existing FDOT right-of-
way without either eliminating the existing bike path or acquiring new right-of-way to relocate the bike path.
# 4 Journevs End I 22"d Street I Hammock Drive Alianment
Description: This alignment located approximately 0.2 miles north of U.S, 1, On the west side it incorporates
Journeys End Road, then a short jog to the south on to West Sandy Circle, follows a new east/west privately owned
segment, then a short jog to the north on to Palmetto Avenue, follows a new east/west privately owned segment
connecting to the west end of the water tower road, follows the water tower road, then a northerly jog on to Key Deer
Boulevard, and connects with Church Lane. On the east side it incorporates 2200 Street, then a short jog south and
then east on an existing scarified segment, and connects with Cunningham Lane. The connection is between Ships
Way (middle Pine Channel Estates) in the west and County Road (middle Sands Subdivision) to the east. Improved
access will be provided for local residents to the shopping center, post office, churches, county parks and other
facilities. There is currently a barrier at Journeys End Road at the intersection with West Sandy Circle, which will have
to be removed. This alignment is estimated to cost approximately $1M.

Pros and Cons:
. Requires clearing of critical Key Deer habitat in several of the segments of the alignment, located on
conservation lands owned by the state.
. Requires a comprehensive plan amendment and approval of the Habitat Conservation Plan.
. Provides some congestion relief on U.S. 1, increasing the level of service to at least "C" for at least 5 to 7 years
without other improvements to that highway with the anticipated maximum number of vehicles per day (vpd)
traveling the route during peak season of 4,500 on the west side and 2,500 on the east side.
. Deters most non-local traffic from accessing this roadway due to distance from U.S. 1.
. Reduces outbound left turning movement from Ships Way, although total turning traffic volumes are anticipated
to increase at the U.S. 1 / Ships Way intersection.
. Passes 21 existing homes on the west side within an established residential neighborhood, although no homes
physically impacted, the neighborhood environment of the Tropical Key Colony subdivision may be noticeably
changed and disrupted.
. Reasonably meets the community's objective to provide a local cross island connection.
Issues:
1. Right-of-way acquisition - requires for specific segments the clearing and acquiring of sensitive Key Deer habitat
primarily owned by the state for conservation purposes, which makes permitting and acquisition a difficult and
time consuming process.
2. Barrier removal - is a controversial issue among the residents of Tropical Key Colony.
3. Traffic calming - will require some form of traffic calming to curtail potential speeders, and intersection
improvements at the U.S. 1 / Ships Way intersection to accommodate higher traffic volumes.
4. Community disruption - a total of 43 homes located along this corridor, therefore having the most disruption to the
community.
#1 and #3 Combined Alianments
Description: This alignment combines the Harbor Light Road / Lyttons Way / Hibiscus Drive alignment and the Main
Street / 24th Street alignment. The connection is between Ships Way (Pine Channel Estates) in the west and County
Road (Sands Subdivision) to the east. Improved access will be provided for local residents to the shopping center,
post office, churches, county parks and other facilities. The barrier at Harbor Lights Road at the intersection with West
Sandy Circle will have to be removed. Si~nificant additional benefits can be reaped on the east end by adding to the
combined alignment the segment of 22" Street between Wilder Road and Cunningham Lane. Because this is a
scarified segment of gravel roadway, the cost of adding this segment to the combined alignment will be relatively
insignificant. The combined alignment is estimated to cost approximately $2M.

Pros and Cons:
. Has same pros and cons of the two combined alignments.
. Uses several alignments, which result in the highest cost of any alternative; however
. Requires a comprehensive plan amendment for several segments and approval of the Habitat Conservation Plan
for all but the northern alignment element.
. Has a greater impact on Key Deer due to total length of paved road surfaces compared to other alignments.
. Provides the best congestion relief on US Highway, increasing level of service to at least "C" for greater than 7
years or more.
. Creates the least traffic volumes on local residential streets other than the "No Build" alternative reducing by half
the anticipated maximum number of vehicles per day traveling these alignments during peak season compared
to the single alignments.
. Deters most non-local traffic from accessing this roadway due to distance from U.S. 1.
. Meets the community's objective for a local cross island connection and is the most preferred alternative (38% of
the survey respondents).
. Provides for flexibility in implementation as the northern alignment element (Harbor Lights Road / Lyttons Way)
may be implemented without reliance upon the southern alignment element (Main Street / 24th Street), which has
numerous permitting and acquisition obstacles to overcome.
Issues:
1. Rights-of-way acquisition, barrier removal, traffic calming, intersection improvements at U.S. 1/ Ships Way, and
wetland permitting - these issues are same as for the two combined alignments.
2. Implementation - northern alignment element of this combined alignment may be implemented with little or no
delays, while the southern alignment element requires securing permits and acquisition issues that may take
years to implement; therefore the combined alignment would be implemented in stages with the more
problematic segments being implemented at a later date after the least restrictive northern alignment element is
completed.
# 5 "No Build" Alternative
Description: The "No Build" alternative assumes that no cross-island connector is built and therefore has no
attendant costs for construction.
Pros and Cons:
. Does not require the expenditure of any public funds.
. Has no impact on habitat and wildlife.
. Does not increase through traffic on any of Big Pine Key's roads, especially on the west side and therefore
creates no impacts on existing residential and business areas.
. Provides no relief from the traffic congestion on U.S.1; any relief from traffic congestion on US 1 would be
dependent upon proposed three laning of that facility which may take conservatively three to five years to
implement before concurrency requirements under the Florida Statutes would be satisfied.
. Is the least preferred alternative based on the survey responses (12% of survey respondents).
. Does not meet the community objective of providing a cross island connector.
. Does not provide a safe and convenient alternative for Big Pine Key residents to travel east to west on the island
without traveling on US 1.
Issues:
1. Building moratorium - with no cross island connector the current building moratorium is expected to remain in
effect until the following actions are accomplished: approval of the Habitat Conservation Plan and amendments
to the Comprehensive Plan to authorize the three laning of US Highway 1 (6 months to a year), followed by the
programming and completion of planning, design, and engineering (PD&E) for the project (approximately 1.5 to 2
years); and programming by FDOT of construction funds after PD&E is completed that guarantees that the
highway improvement will be under construction within three years.
2. Community objective - a major need arising out of the community master planning process for Big Pine Key
under the Livable CommuniKeys Program was a cross-island connector to connect living, working, recreation,
and shopping areas north of U.S. 1 without residents having to use US. Highway 1; this alternative fails to
accommodate this community need.

Subject: Meeting Minutes
Below, please find minutes from our first Steering Committee meeting for the Big Pine Key Cross Island
Connector, held on Monday, July 8, 2002. Attached, please find the revised project timeline, as discussed
at the meeting. If you have any questions, feel .free to call me or Raj.
.
. This project will go through a full public involvement process.
. Need # 1 - enhance local travel.
. Need # 2 - reduce congestion on U.S.l.
. The U.S. 1 three-laning project is critical, but not yet in the FDOT five-year work program,
because it first must go through Comp Plan amendments.
. The purpose of the Steering Committee is to take the lead for the direction of the project, provide
a conduit of information from outside sources to the consultant, and to conduct the public meetings.
. All Steering Committee members are working together to expedite the various processes that will
be involved in this project.
. Previous studies have been reviewed and data incorporated into this analysis.
. The quit-claim deeds to property needed for the 1988 project of similar nature have been returned
to the owners. Many of those lots are now owned by the USFWS.
. The Key deer are a critical issue. The County has gone through an extensive planning process to
prove that the project will not endanger the future of the deer.
. Existing aerials will be used for the report and public meeting displays, in addition to graphics using
GIS data.
. A GIS-compatible Key Deer Mortality layer will be provided to the consultant by USFWS,
Memo - Meeting Minutes
July 24, 2002
Page 2 of3
. When details are required, the design will comply to County roadway standards.
. Prelimirunyright-of-wayinformation will be used in the first report (Altematives Evaluation Report).
The final report (Preferred Alignment Report) will include legal descriptions, with aid from the
County.
. Traffic calming measures will be considered throughout the process and will be detailed in the PAR.
. Traffic data will consider a 20-year horizon (i.e. 2022).
. The study area was preliminarily sketched in the draft HCP report, however that is to be modified.
Ships Way will be one of the study area boundaries. A frontage road along V,S, 1 will also be
included in the study area,
. It was proposed that the study area extend to Watson Boulevard to the north. However, it was
agreed that the study area boundary would stop at South Street.
. CARL-funded land (through the DEP) may not be used for roads, only conservation and
recreation. This will require further research.
. Freshwaterwetlands are hard to find, but a loss is considered a "red flag". Saltwater wetland loss
is also an issue, but not as critical. There are ways to mitigate for this, and it is discussed in the
HCP. The County's "380 Agreement" with DCA will need to be addressed.
. A GIS-compatible red-flag wetland layer will be provided to the consultant by the County.
. Mitigation forrefuge lands is unusual, however the VSFWS will try to be flexible, given the data
in and intent of the HCP.
. Despite the HCP, there is no mitigation for impacts to Lower Keys marsh rabbit habitat - "zero
tolerance".
. Some environmental taking is expected, regardless of alignment, which was one of the pwposes
ofthe HCP.
. The draft HCP will be modified from a "menu style" of improvements, to a "habitat unit" concept.
. A road is not considered "development".
. The AER matrix will include a "no build" alternative.
. The matrix will be more qualitative than quantitative. The key issues to be "balanced" will be:
A) community connectivity/human factors
B) environment
C) engineering/mobility
D) economic cost
. One issue to be incorporated in the AER - ease of acquisition of property,
. Traffic will be modeled using QRS. Existing conditions will be calibrated. Each alignment will be
separately evaluated.
. Existing condition analyses will include the northbound right-turn lane intersection improvement
along V.S, 1.
. The 20-year future analyses will include the V.S, 1 three-laning project.
. The local resident worst case conditions (Saturday morning to midday) will be analyzed,
Memo - Meeting Minutes
July 24, 2002

. Consideration of signs will be included in the PAR Economic development and community issues
will be addressed separately in the PAR.
. The anticipated posted speed will be 25 mph, suitable for a local County road, not for an FDOT
arterial.
. One alignment may be a "series of links", possibly just existing paved roads.
. Alignments may have dog-legs. "Themeing" ideas such as bicycle lanes, sidewalks, decorative
lighting, and/or land/streetscaping will only be applied to new segments of an alignment, not to
existing paved segments.
. It may be possible to create "public easements" for roadways.
. Next Steering Committee meeting will be Tuesday, August 6, 2002, at 10:00 AM, same place.
An updated project schedule is included with these minutes.

Subject: Meeting Minutes
Below, please find minutes from our second Steering Committee meeting for the Big Pine Key Cross Island
Connector, held on Tuesday, August 6, 2002. For your use, attached please find the updated project time
line. If you have any questions, feel free to call me or Raj.
. To date, the study length has been broken into 10 "color" segments for analysis, in order to
eliminate some combinations of choices, Started with over 150 choices, now at approximately 40,
will get to approximately 8 for the public meeting.
. All alternatives will connect from Ships Way to Sands Road, to provide the desired cross island
connection.
. The study segments will all run east/west, unless there is a need to include a north/south segment.
When the segments are combined they will form corridors.
. Based on discussions with DEP Tallahassee staff, CARL state-owned land can be used for public
purpose. They are open to this idea. They have sent URS details of what they own. The concept
is that if (non FDOT) state-owned land is required, then the County will need to acquire other
property that is on the D EP ''wish-list'' as mitigation. The DEP annually contacts a list oflocal
property owners asking to buy their property.
. Based on discussions with the USFWS, federally-owned property will be almost impossible to
acquire for this project. Under the concept in the HCP to avoid and minimize, if there is any other
choice, then the feds would be opposed.
. County staff indicated that it would be desirable to open both Journeys End and Harbor Lights.
Based on an understanding to date, the existing road barriers could be removed by the County at
anytime. A review of the covenant between the homeowners and the County may be required.
Memo - Meeting Minutes
August 15, 2002
Page 2 of3
It is the current understanding that previously the roads were private and were brought up to
County Code for County maintenance. Therefore, the County should have the final discretion
concerning opening them to traffic, however this is a political issue.
. Discussion of extending Lyttons Way to the west to connect to Ships Way, in lieu of using, for
example, Harbor Lights, resulted in the realization of potential significant environmental impacts on
the north option, as compared to Harbor Lights. It was noted that the north option would impact
a home and/or business to connect to Ships Way, versus the fact that Harbor Lights has
approximately three houses that front onto it, who will likely be opposed to the barricade removal.
. The use of a "dogleg" alignment was discussed, They provide an impediment to the use ofthe
alignment and are less preferred from an engineering standpoint. However, they tend to keep
speeds lower and extraneous intrusive vehicles from using the alignment. There are pros and cons
to having a dogleg alignment, but it is likely that the final alignment will have some doglegs.
Regardless of doglegs or not, traffic calming techniques will be applied to the selected alternative
to keep speeds low and minimize intrusion. It may be possible to buy additional right-of-way along
the alignment, and turn some of the smaller doglegs into reverse curves. Most north/south doglegs
were selected keeping a reasonable maximum distance in mind.
. There was a discussion about parallel frontage roads to U.S. 1. Based on the best available
information, the FDOT only owns the U.s. 1 corridor. The FDOT noted that the use of frontage
roads was a popular concept, however many were poorly designed, and as a result, their use has
fallen from favor. They can create problems, particularly the possibility of accidents at the
connections back onto the main roadway. These connecting points can become "choke points"
for traffic flow.
. The process of segment elimination was demonstrated by the yellow segment on Pond Lane in
reference to the Lower Keys Marsh Rabbit territory. The County noted that the yellow segment
that extended Henry Lane through the mobile home park would have significant negative impacts.
Within each color group such comparisons would be made to narrow the choices to approximately
eight for the public meeting.
. Some updates to the current "existing conditions" Exhibit included: adding the daycare facility on
Pond Lane, label 20th Street as Lyttons Way, change "Potential Park" at north end of Sands Road
to "County Park" (it has been voted on and will become a reality), and add Blue Heron Park on
the north side ofLyttons Way.
. Based on a preliminary review of engineering variables, it has been observed that alignments to the
north provide less improvement to resident travel times than alignments to the south. This is in
keeping with the idea that if you already live central or south, you are less likely to travel north to
get to your destinations, most of which are south.
. The segment matrix and the corridor matrix will be "Consumer Reports" style - qualitative, with
full moons, etc.
. The first cut making decisions on segments will analyze environmental and homelbusiness factors.
The second cut between the approximate eight alignments will also include engineering factors and
cost.
Memo - Meeting Minutes
August 15,2002
Page 3 of3
. In considering the human factors, do parcels reflect impact or should the number people/houses
be used? It was decided that both number of parcels (titles to deal with) and number of houses
would be used as criteria in the matrix.
. It was noted that the public is concerned about life style. Theywill ask how many "new" cars will
drive by my house? Segment volumes will also be added to the evaluation matrix.
. Recognizing that choice will be beneficial, the County requested a review of an "all open" option,
removing barriers at both Harbor Lights and Journeys End. Also create a "combo" of multiple
alignments for better service.
. It was discussed if Ships Way may become a bottle neck onto U.S. 1. The local residents who
would drive west to Ships Way will most likely be interested in turning west (right) to head to Key
West. In addition, the lower volumes on U.S. 1 will allow all movements more gaps in the traffic
stream. Overall traffic is expected to improve.
. Upon selection of the preferred alignment, a decision will be made regarding sidewalks and bikes.
Some items may be considered overkill, depending on the exact location.
. Within the blue color group, between West Sandy Circle and East Sandy Circle, some ofthe
intermediate segments were questioned. These will be evaluated, and will remain only ifthey
logically connect other east/west segments.
. Consideration should be given to closing or making one-way the section of Wilder Boulevard
between U.S. 1 and 24th Street. A new connection south ofthe shopping plaza would have
enough separation from U.S. 1 to operate acceptably, considering the expected volumes.
. No alternative should require a new traffic signal. This would not be in keeping with the rural
nature of the project.
. The traffic distribution model QRS was discussed. The model has been calibrated to existing
collected data. A SYNCHRO analysis was reviewed, and will be available at the public meeting.
. Exhibit 3 will be revised to note "internal" and "external".
. Exhibit 6 will be revised to more clearly indicate travel to/from Key West/Marathon.
. A JPG file of all the potential segments will be submitted to the County to post to the website prior
to the public meeting.
. Next meeting will be Tuesday, 13 August, at 1 :00 PM, at these County offices. The public meeting
will be in Big Pine Key at the Neighborhood School at 6:30 PM. The public meeting will include
aPowerPoint overview and boards around the room. The County will provide comment sheets,
a sign-in sheet, and staff to watch the door.
. The current schedule remains unchanged (see attached).
. A draft report will be submitted to the County on 19 August, incorporating the public comments.
. The following meeting will be Tuesday 26 August, from 10:30 AM until 5 :00 PM at the USFWS
building in the Winn Dixie Plaza on Big Pine Key. Agenda will be a review and comments on the
draft report, discussion of public input, and a determination of which alignment to recommend, to
be incorporated into the Preferred Alignment Report (PAR).

Subiect: Meeting Minutes
Below, please find minutes from our third Steering Committee meeting for the Big Pine Key Cross
Connector, held on Thursday, September 5, 2002. If you have any questions, feel free to call me or Raj.
. For the FDOT three-Ianing project to happen: first the HCP must be completed, there is a
possibility of court cases associated with the HCP that may also then need to be addressed, then
a380 agreement with DCA must be complete to modify the Comprehensive Plan, then the FDOT
can program the PD&E phase of the project, approximately for two years, then monies for
construction can be added to the FDOT Five-Year Work Program.
. Tim and Rebecca agreed that the 380 agreement is to facilitate Comprehensive Plan changes, not
to just lift the moratorium or to ignore concurrency issues.
. While the FDOT three-Ianing project will require a Comprehensive Plan change, the Cross
Connector will not,
. To reiterate, the primary purpose is for local convenience, and the secondary purpose is for better
U.S. conditions.
. Historically, the road closures on Harbor Lights Road and on Journeys End Road were not desired
by the owners, but was an environmental issue from USFWS. At that time Mayor Jack London
agreed to make progress, and a resolution was recorded. Resolutions can be un-recorded. In the
time since then, the USFWS has determined that Key deer mortality is not a compelling issue to
maintain the road closure. According to Marlene, the county attorney has determined that the
Memo - Meeting Minutes
September 11, 2002
Page 2 of 4
street closure could be dissolved when both parties are in agreement. Marlene will provide this
letter or information to the team.
. Based on Florida concurrency statues, the three-laning project has to be in place or under actual
construction within three years of the "issuance of a C.O, or its functional equivalent", To lift the
moratorium the three-laning project would have to be in the firstthree years of the FDOT Five-
Year Work Program as a funded construction project.
. F or the Public Input Appendix, add a summary text sheet to the pie graphs. Remove the bulky
actual two-sided forms.
. For the intro, revise to indicate that the reason that Lyttons W aywas not built last time was due
at least in part to DCA issues, parcel sizes, and land development regulations, Although unlikely
given the current land development regulations, if necessary, steps will be taken so as to avoid
creating non-conformance (due to lot size, etc.). The historic environmental and land use issues
have currently been addressed by the RCP and the density changes in the land development code,
. Background section, bullet 3: verify the word "sufficient" with respect to the 2000 "Big Pine Key
Transportation Improvement Study",
. Convey the idea - even if the FDOT does the three-laning proj ect, the Cross Connector is still
needed to be a part of the overall transportation solution for the island.
. Section IT.A. - add key attracting destinations beyond study area - have to cross it to get to them.
. Change from "New County Park" to county parks in general (all encompassing).
. Add discussion of normalization to the section on traffic data.
. Add to the conclusion section a mention about considerations for Ships Way traffic.
. For Exhibit 7 and Exhibit 8, indicate that it is the existing roadway network.
. On Exhibit 10, simplify the legend, Many of the types in the legend did not occur, Make the items
distinct (better for photocopies) symbols. List general motor vehicle accidents and Key deer
accidents and a table ofthe number of accidents.
. Upon completion, provide entire report in PDF format to County.
. Add a secondary house impact - use visual aerial inspection and count actual houses along each
corridor, This is a part of the community "impact".
. Move entire discussion of segments out of report body and into a new appendix.
. On Exhibit 16 - change the legend to say "Future Land Use".
. For Exhibit 18 - change the legend to say "RCP Tier Information".
. Expand the conclusion section. Discuss items from the evaluation matrix, issues, ownership,
easements, etc.
. Add to the conclusion "other issues to be addressed in the PAR" - speed humps, STOP sign
locations, left turns on V,S. 1 (intrusion), etc.
. For community impact, include figures in an appendix that show the traffic volumes "past my
house" .
Memo - Meeting Minutes
September 11, 2002

. Coordinate with the draft RCP regarding the ability to use other than only existing
pavement/scarified area. The final PV A model with R -values will be a tool that will allow the
County flexibility.
. Prior to this meeting, Tim had requested that a sketch ofthe recommendation be added to the
conclusion section, including back ofbusiness connections, intersections, returns, right-of-way, and
the roadway, on top of an aerial. Exhibit 25 was created for this purpose.
. In order to shelter the residents in the area, in the PAR look at possible one-way road on Sunrise
Road or Sunset Road. Perhaps a barrier? Maybe leave the J oumeys End Road barrier up? But
this does not seem equitable to all, and is counterproductive for facilitating traffic.
. Remove the speed humps noted in Exhibit 25 - these are only in one residential area, however
ultimately they will be in more locations. Discuss them in text.
. Limiting left turns from Ships Way and Palmetto A venue is a possibility for future consideration,
Definitely consider an additional southbound right-turn lane on Ships Way.
. For Wilder Road and Loma Lane don't show new barriers, but discuss in text.
. At the new intersection with Key Deer Boulevard, don't show a circle, show STOP signs, but
discuss in text. At Wilder Road, move STOP signs to east/west until further study.
. For this report, keep the options to text only, and the exhibit simple. Details are for the next step,
. For this report, do indicate the two barriers are to be opened.
. On Exhibit 25, indicate existing STOP signs, versus proposed new ones.
. For Exhibit 25, label it Lyttons Way, rather than 20th Street.
. For the September 11, 2002 meeting at the Planning Commission, bring the new Exhibit 25, the
public involvement pie graphs, and the proposed traffic volume figures. Do not provide a full
background ofthe project.
. For the PAR, keep the design as rural as possible. Sidewalks and bike lanes will be considered
at a future time, if needed.
. In general, if two-way volumes are greater than 800 vpd, consider a paved shoulder for bike use.
. Keep lane widths narrow. Do not expect to provide street lighting.
. After this process, right-of-way will be the next concern. Design will come at the end ofthe
acquisition phase.
. In the PAR, allow for multiple pieces - many typical sections are allowed. If the segment is
existing, expect to do nothing.
. F or this proj ect, no survey effort. Although it has recognized limitations, use the GIS data for
ownership and right-of-way data. The County Property Appraiser likely has the same dataset.
Cross reference to title information, with an RE#. Tim will assist with this step, particularly with
easements.
. Specifically review the two areas on the Main Street alignment west of West Sandy Circle to verifY
ownership - is it owned by the County?
. Momoe County roadway standard specs provide a "hardship clause" - if there are significant
constraints (like environmental or right-of-way) then there can be deviations.
Memo - Meeting Minutes
September 11, 2002
Page 4 of 4
. Per the roadway standard specs, consider the Cross Connector a collector roadway. For new
segments, II-foot lanes apply.
. Submit final report one week after the planning meeting.
. After this meeting, Rafael provided clarification - for the three-Ianing proj ect, when the HCP, the
DCA 380 agreement, and the Comprehensive Plan are done, then the County must supply a letter

that even with the HCP, a simplified PD&E phase will be required. If any Chapter 120 issues
arise, it may be possible to continue a PD&E phase, but not later phases.

Subject: Fourth Steering Committee Meeting Minutes - November 15.2002
The fourth Steering Committee meeting for the Big Pine Key Cross Connector was held on Friday,
November 15, 2002. The primary intent of this meeting was to review the Alternatives Evaluation Report
(AER) and to prepare for a presentation at the December BOCC meeting. In addition to the Steering
Committee members a few local residents were present at this meeting,
Following is a summary of items discussed at the meeting and their disposition. If you have any questions,
feel free to call me.
. USFWS cautioned that, other than Alignment # 1, some segments ofthe remaining three west
alignments have significant environmental issues that may cause considerable delays in securing
approval from permitting agencies. For example; all three alignments require building on unscarified
land that were either purchased through CARL program, or it is Tier I Key Deer Habitat and/or
Pine Land,
URS explained that all alignments have some form of environmental, community and/or
engineering issues to be dealt with. The magnitude of the issues and the difficulty associated
with addressing these issues are being used as factors in the segment and alignment
evaluation process.
. County Engineer stated that having several cross island connectors will achieve the goal better than
only one connector, He suggested that in addition to building a cross island connector, regrading
all gravel roadways should be proposed. Further, he does not favor removing the barricades at

the Journeys End / Sands Road intersection, because it will affect many residents who live along
Journeys End, unlike the removal of Harbor Lights Road barricades which will affect only a few
residents.
The proposed Alternative 5 consist of Alignments # 1 and # 3. Improving the roadways (re-
grading) is a Public Works function recognized and identified in the HCP. Not removing the
Journeys End barricades may be a good compromise to build consensus among the residents.
. County staff noted that the numbers presented on the traffic table in Appendix C contradict the
traffic numbers presented on exhibits in Appendix D.
URS explained that the reason for the discrepancy is that the table reflects the raw numbers
from QRS Traffic Model and the numbers on the exhibits are adjusted model numbers to
reflect reasonable distribution of traffic volumes within the study network. County staff
requested that it should be explained in the report.
. USFWS suggested that a traffic monitoring program should be recommended with the
implementation of the preferred alternative.
The implementation details will consider adding the traffic monitoring task.
. County's Bicycle / Pedestrian Coordinator suggested that bike and pedestrian facilities should be
part of any cross island connector.
The implementation details will consider adding bicycle and pedestrian facilities.
. One ofthe residents suggested that the county should re-grade L yttons Way / Harbor Light Road
corridor and monitor the traffic before implementing the cross island connector. Another of the
resident questioned why take the 'all or nothing' approach, why not implement the east side
connector and observe what the implications are before implementing the west side connector.
County staff noted, that in order for the cross island connector to be affective it should not
be implemented piecemeal.
. The Steering Committee concurred with the study finding that the best cross island connector will
be a combination of Alignments # 1 and # 3, referred to as Alternative 5. However, the anticipated
permitting delays associated with some segments of this alternative was recognized, and the
committee recommended that Alternative 5 should be implemented segment by segment, starting
with the implementation of segments that has no issues that may delay the implementation.
. The report is a technical document and has many details that may be confusing to the BOCC and
may mis-inform.
A revised Executive Summary will be prepared and submitted to the County Stafffor review
by 11/22/02. This document will not exceed four pages and will include a discussion of pros
and cons of each alternative that was studied.

APPENDIX C
Traffic Simulation Information
URS
I
Traffic-simulation report
1. Application of QRS
QRS (Quick Response System) is traffic distribution and assignment software. It is
a computer program for forecasting impacts of the developments on highway traffic
and estimating the impacts of highway projects on travel patterns. The objective of
applying QRS in this project is to look at how traffic circulates in the roadway
network given the different alternatives. The logic embedded in QRS to distribute
and assign traffic volumes follows the traditional four-step procedures (Trip
Generation, Trip Distribution, Model Split, and Traffic Assignment). The required
inputs for QRS include the land use features such as income, dwelling units of
houses, square feet of commercial (retail) buildings and other public & private
facilities. The inputs also require traffic-related information like link capacity, link
speed, link distance, intersection characteristics, etc. The QRS model is built such
that it reflects the existing layout ofland-use and street network.
In the QRS models, Centroid is used to represent residential area. The inputs include
income and dwelling units. The dwelling units are obtained from Arc View database
parcel by parcel (traffic zone). There are 129 parcels defined in Big Pine Key. The
Production! Attraction Tag is used to represent commercial (retail). The trips
produced from commercial area are based on the ITE trip generation book. The
External Station is used to represent the end of the network (both ends of US 1). The
production and attraction trips are based on the daily traffic volumes at the ends.
There are 410 nodes and 491 links in the system. The system link speed is set to 25
mph except for U.S. 1 that is 45 mph.
2. Calibration of models
The model calibration is to guarantee that the model can represent the real
conditions. The procedure of model calibration is to compare the output from the
model with the existing counts. This is a trial-and-error process, involving a lot of
computer time. The following table shows the comparison between the QRS outputs
and the existing counts.
East-West Link Daily Volume Comparison for Bi :Pine Kev (Existing)
Link Name of Links EB Volume WB Volume Combined
No Counts Model Counts Model Difference
1 US 1: Bridge (W) --- Ships Way 11124 10033 10389 11490 0

2
From the table it can be seen that the difference of the daily two-way traffic volumes
between the models and existing conditions is very small, demonstrating that the
model is well built. It can reasonably represent the actual traffic situation of Big
Pine Key.
3. Develop future volumes
The future traffic volumes were developed based on the growth in Big Pine Key 20
years after. The growth includes the opening of the County Park located at Atlantis
Drive, and 200 homes distributed in the north part of US. 1. This information was
put into QRS model and the outputs were compared with the future development on
US. 1. The daily two-way traffic volumes on the segments of U.S. 1 were taken as
the criterion to do the comparison. The traffic growth rate was obtained from the
"2002 U.S. 1 Arterial Travel Time and Delay Study". In this study, regression
analysis was conducted by using consecutive to-year traffic data at Big Pine Key.
The annual growth rate is 0.14% and is used to estimate the future traffic volumes on
US.l. The existing volumes on U.S. 1 were compounded calculated and the future
results are shown in Exhibit 8. The following table exhibits the comparison of the
daily two-way traffic volumes between QRS model and future volumes on the
segments of US. 1.

The current roadway network forms an isolated community, resulting in an excessive
use of US. 1 for local people to meet the daily travel requirement. In order to
monitor the inconvenience of the local residents due to the lack of connector, we pick
up some origins and destinations in the island to look at how people travel from one
point to the other. The O-D points are shown in Exhibit 15. The points selected are
all the places that local residents often drive to visit like WinnDixie (point 5), Post
Office (point 6), homes (point 1 through point 4), and Baseball field (point 7). Point
2 represents all residents living in the north beyond the South Street. It should be
noted that point 1 is also the location of the future County Park. Therefore, the O-D

3
pairs 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, and 1-7 are very critical in analyzing the convenience and travel
time saving provided the connector is built up.
5. Travel time analysis
In order to see an engineering effectiveness, travel time study was conducted for the
selected pairs of origin and destinations. To get the travel time for each pair,
SYNCHRO and CORSIM were used. These two computer packages can perform
operation analysis in detail. For each scenario, we have to run QRS first and put the
results from QRS to SYNCHRO. Then, we transfer SYNCHRO file to CORSIM and
run CORSIM simulation. Finally, we obtain the results from CORSIM. This
involves huge computer runs and human effort. The results of travel time for the
existing conditions and alternatives are shown in the following table. It can be seen
from the table that alternative 1 shows significant benefit in terms of travel time.
Whereas, alternative 16 shows least benefit of travel time because it is too close to
U.S. 1.

6. Segment volumes
As mentioned before, the power of QRS is in its assignment of traffic automatically.
In order to look at how traffic assigns to the roadway links due to the different
alternatives, the segment volume analysis was conducted by running QRS. The
segment volume is defined as the daily two-way traffic volume at the segment. The
segments are selected such that they are the representatives of the important streets
and the concerns of local residents once upon the connector is built.

The above table exhibits the two-way daily volumes on the segments, which are
produced from raw QRS runs. The study area is divided into two parts: west side
and east side, using Wilder Road as a boundary line. Based on the QRS simulation
run, it can be found that most traffic concentrates on the segments of the west side of
Wilder Road. This is consistent with the previous study that more residents travel to
Key West than Marathon.

Segment Information
The entire study area was reviewed to determine possible east/west segments for the Cross
Connector roadway. All types of potential segments were initially accepted, including existing
paved roads, scarified or dirt roads and new segments,
Ten segment areas were identified. The segments generally run from east to west, and terminate
at logical north/south existing points. This allows for the maximum number of combinations to
be considered. A description of the ten segment areas is listed below, from west to east:
. Yellow Area - from Ships Way to West Sandy Circle
. Blue Area - from West Sandy Circle to East Sandy Circle
. Green Area - from East Sandy Circle to Loma Lane
. Red Area - from Lorna Lane to Key Deer Boulevard
. Magenta Area - from Key Deer Boulevard to Wilder Road
. Turquoise Area - from Wilder Road to Pine DrivelIxora Drive
. Orange Area - from Pine DrivelIxora Drive to Palmetto Drive
. Purple Area - from PakIletto Drive to County Road
. Brown Area - from County Road to Sands Road.
The ten segment areas and all of the identified segments are indicated in reference to an aerial
photograph of the study area in Exhibit A at the end of this section and in reference to GIS parcel
information in Exhibit B at the end of this section, Exhibit A also identifies the segment
conditions, whether it is an existing paved road, a scarified road, or a new segment.
Each of the segments is described in each color area below. In total, 77 segments were
identified. In general, the segments are listed from north to south. Main segments are the most

A comparative review of the various segments within each color area was performed using ten of
the evaluation criteria described previously. For each parameter, the segments were assigned a
relative ranking, from low impact (most preferred), to intermediate, to high impact (least
preferred). In general, segments with the greatest number of unfavorable designations were
eliminated from further consideration, A complete matrix for each color area including all of the
segment evaluation criteria is provided in Exhibit J-l through Exhibit J-IO at the end of this
section.
From the GIS database, FEMA floodplain information was reviewed with respect to each of the
segments. The floodplain impact analysis is provided in Exhibit C at the end of this section. As
can be seen in the figure, the entire study area and all of the segments are within the flood zone.
Therefore, all of the segments were ranked unfavorably for these engineering criteria, and no
distinction between segments could be made on this parameter.
Similarly, the archaeological potential GIS data within the study area was reviewed. The historic
sites impact analysis is provided in Exhibit D at the end of this section, As can be seen in the
figure, none of the segments are within areas with high or moderate archaeological potential.
Therefore, all of the segments were ranked favorably for this criteria, and no distinction between
segments could be made on this parameter.

As discussed in the HCP, the Lower Keys marsh rabbit is a covered species whose numbers are
so low that zero impact to their remaining habitat will be permitted. A review of the study area
compared to the GIS marsh rabbit habitat GIS database is provided in Exhibit E at the end of this
section. The figure indicates that segment Y-l and segment M-l both have the potential to
impact the marsh rabbit habitat. Therefore these two segments were ranked unfavorably and will
not be considered for further analysis.
Aerial photographs and field reviews were analyzed to determine the potential for segments to
impact houses or businesses. Segments with significant potential impacts in these categories
were ranked unfavorably. Where existing data made the determination of potential impacts
difficult, the analysis conservatively assigned the segment an intermediate ranking.
To evaluate parcel impacts and ease of acquisition, GIS data were reviewed, An parcel analysis
was made for each segment, based on the information provided in Exhibit B. GIS future land
use and parcel ownership information is provided in Exhibit F -1 through Exhibit F -10 and
Exhibit G-l through G-I0 at the end of this section. Note that the areas listed in the figures (in
acres) are graphically determined based on the GIS database, and do not necessarily reflect
actual right-of-way that mayor may not need to be acquired for each segment. Segments
returning a zero value are not included in the area tables. Segment impacts were ranked relative
to other segments within the same color group. Although impacts to USFWS property are noted
for some segments, this analysis based on graphical interpretation of the data and may not
accurately reflect ultimate impacts,
An analysis of segment conditions was made from a review of Exhibit A and field review notes.
Segment lengths were measured and categorized into paved, scarified or new sections. Segments
of all paved existing roads were ranked favorably, while segments of all new sections were
ranked unfavorably.
Segment Key deer habitat impacts were determined using the HCP tier information. The tier
data are provided in Exhibit H-l through Exhibit H-lO at the end of this section. Segments with
no impact to Tier I habitat were ranked favorably. Segments with impacts in Tier III were
ranked higher than those with only Tier I impacts.
Vegetation impacts for each segment were established based on the HCP compiled GIS database.
The information is provided in Exhibit 1-1 through Exhibit 1-10 at the end of this section.
Segments only impacting areas considered developed were ranked favorably, Segments with
wetland impacts were ranked unfavorably.
Based on a review of the section matrices, Exhibit J-l through Exhibit J-I0, numerous segments
were eliminated from further consideration, In general, segments with the greatest number of
unfavorable designations were eliminated first. Segments that had no logical use once adjacent
segments were eliminated were also eliminated. When two segments accomplished nearly the
same route, in general, only one segment with the highest ranking was considered for further
evaluation,

Public Info Summary
Public Information Workshop Summary
In order to obtain residents' feedback, a Public Information Workshop was held on
Tuesday, August 13, 2002, from 6:30 P.M. until 9:00 P.M., at the Big Pine Key
Neighborhood School, on Big Pine Key. At the meeting, an overview was given of the
Cross Connector Study, including the corridors under review and the preliminary
evaluation matrix that had been completed to date,
At the meeting, a feedback sheet was provided to attendees, who were asked to rank the
nine west and six east corridors. A copy of the feed back sheet is included at the end of
this section. Feedback sheets were generally made available to the public after the
workshop as well. Through the Technical Steering Committee, other public input (letters
and faxes) was also received.
At the workshop 112 people signed in on the sign-in sheet. At the end of the workshop
96 forms were collected. In the time following the workshop an additional 37 forms were
received for a total of 133 forms. A review of the names and address on the forms
indicates that there were no duplicate names and that six forms were for people not
associated with Big Pine Key, based on available information, which were not included
in the dataset.
The public was asked to rank the west and east corridors separately, relative to each
other. The feedback from the forms is summarized in the pie graphs at the end of this
section. A summary of the most preferred and least preferred alternatives is provided
below. Other responses are considered intermediate.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Monroe County, in response to requests from residents living on Big Pine Key, retained the services ofURS to
develop this Cross Connector Study. The need for a cross island connector was identified through the "Livable
Communi Keys Program". The primary purpose of this Cross Connector Study is to provide local east/west
connection(s) to and from residential areas and local attracting destinations so that the locals will not need to
access U.S. I for local trips. The secondary purpose of this study is to reduce traffic volumes and congestion
on U.S.I by providing a local connection(s). This study is consistent with the Habitat Conservation Plan
(HCP), which is currently being drafted.
Based on a review of existing connections within the study area, four distinct pockets of the study area emerge.
Under existing conditions, there are no east/west connections between these four pockets. This underscores
the need for a Cross Connector road on Big Pine Key to be a part of the overall transportation solution for the
island The 2000 "Big Pine Key Transportation Improvement Study" recommends that the Florida Department
of Transportation three-lane U.S. I be constructed as soon as they are permitted to enter it into their work
program and that a Cross Connector road be constructed to alleviate U.S. I traffic in the near future.
For the purposes of this study, all Cross Connector road alternatives begin at Ships Way on the west and end at
Sands Road on the east. A connector of this length within the study area will connect all four of the separate
pockets on Big Pine Key. In order to provide a thorough analysis, consideration for potential segments was
given to all types of roadways, from existing paved roadways to scarified lands to new segments. In addition
to an analysis of potential roadways, an analysis ofa "Do Nothing/No Build" alternative was also considered.
After a preliminary analysis, remaining segments were combined in a logical fashion to create parallel
corridors for further analysis. A total of nine east corridors and six west corridors (including the "Do
Nothing/No Build" alternative) were developed for further evaluation. The corridors were ranked based on 15
criteria:
. House Impact . Segment Condition . Travel Time
. Business Impact . Historic Sites . Segment Volume
. Parcel Impact . Marsh Rabbit . U.S. I LOS
. Ease of Acquisition . Key Deer . Relative Cost
. Floodplain Impact . Vegetation Impact . Community Impact
As part of the evaluation of community impact, residents' feedback was obtained at a Public Information
Workshop. At the meeting, an overview was given of the Cross Connector Study, including the corridors

under review and the preliminary evaluation matrix that had been completed to date. Feedback sheets were
provided to attendees, who were asked to rank the nine west and six east corridors, with rank I being most
preferred.
A complete matrix for each west and east corridor was compiled, including all of the evaluation criteria. Each
corridor was evaluated in a relative manner from low impact to high impact, from most preferred to least
preferred. A brief description of each corridor is as follows, along with pertinent details and public input.
WEST CORRIDORS
. W-O - "Do Nothing" - has the least impacts. Does not address the local need for alternatives to u.s.
I. The public ranked this alternative least preferred.
. W-l - "Harbor Lights/Lvttons Way" - has relatively low impacts. Includes removing the barriers at
both Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End Road Due to how far north it is located, it will not
benefit the maximum number of residents. The public ranked this alternative second most preferred
. W-2-1- "Journeys EndlWater Tower/Church Ln" - generally intermediate to high impacts. Includes
removing the barriers at both Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End Road The public ranked this
alternative intermediate.
. W-2-2 - "Journeys EndlWater Tower/Bank Rd" - relatively high impacts. Includes removing the
barriers at both Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End Road The public ranked this alternative
intermediate.
. W-3A - "Main St/S. Sandy Cir/Angle RdlBank Rd" - generally intermediate to high impacts.
Provides connections along the north sides of businesses. The public ranked this alternative
intermediate.
. W-3B - "Main St/S. Sandy Cir/Business Rd/Bank Rd" - generally intermediate to high impacts.
Provides connections along the north sides of businesses. The public ranked this alternative
intermediate.
. W-4A - "Henry LnlFrontage RdI Angle Rd/Bank Rd" - generally low to intermediate impacts.
Provides a frontage road to u.S. 1. Has high business impacts and low environmental impacts. The
public ranked this alternative intermediate.
. W-4B - "Henry LnlFrontage Rd/Business Rd/Bank Rd" - generally low to intermediate impacts.
Provides a frontage road to u.S. I. Has high business impacts and low environmental impacts. The
public ranked this alternative intermediate.
. W-5 - "Combo W-I + W-3A" - has relatively low impacts. Includes removing the barriers at both
Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End Road. Due to multiple parallel corridors, it provides the best
engineering and planning solution. The public ranked this alternative the most preferred

The public ranked this alternative least preferred.
. E-l - "Lvttons Way + Hibiscus Dr" - has relatively low impacts. Due to how far north it is located, it
will not benefit the maximum number of residents. The public ranked this alternative second most

. E-5 - "Combo E-l + E-3" - has relatively low impacts. Due to multiple parallel corridors, it provides
the best engineering and planning solution. The public ranked this alternative the most preferred
Based on a review of all the analyses herein, it is recommended that the pairing of Corridor W -5 and Corridor
E-5 be developed into the Cross Connector roadway. The preferred alignment fulfills both the primary and
secondary purposes of this study. The selected alignment consists of two generally parallel east/west corridors.
The two corridors are comprised ofthe following segments:
. Harbor Lights Road! Lyttons Way/ Hibiscus Drive, and
. A new "Main Street" aligning with Enterprise Avenue/ South Sandy Circle/ a new east-west segment,
using the scarified angled road! a new road between the banks! 24th Street/ Mac Court! Hammock
Drive/ Bailey Road.
The preferred alignment includes removing the barricades from both Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End
Road. The west corridors are depicted in Exhibit 18 at the end of this study. The east corridors are depicted in
Exhibit 19 at the end of this study.
The recommended alignment is not expected to physically impact any houses or any businesses, although there
are 18 houses fronting the north corridor and 27 houses fronting the south corridor. Like all of the corridors,
the recommended alignment abuts some federally-owned parcels. It also abuts state-owned parcels.
Mitigation for this, if any, has not yet been determined. The recommended alignment is comprised of a
mixture of existing paved roads, scarified roads and some segments of new road Like all of the corridors,
portions of the recommended alignment are within Tier I areas, and will require coordination with the Habitat
Conservation Plan to ameliorate environmental impacts. Of all the alternatives, the recommended alignment
VI
URS
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
produces the most reduction in resident travel times on the island, distributes the volumes in the most efficient
manner, and has the most positive impact on lessening congestion on U.S.!. Because of it is comprised of two
alignments, it has the highest relative cost of all alternatives considered. Based on a review of public input, the
recommended alignment is the most preferred alternative.
The forth-coming companion Preferred Alignment Report will provide more detailed information about the
recommended alignments. The Preferred Alignment Report will include consideration of typical sections, lane
widths, right-of-way, construction cost estimates, and Key deer considerations. Other items to be considered
in the detailed final analysis of the alignments include further evaluation of speed humps for traffic calming
speed control, location of STOP signs, possible right turn lane on Ships Way southbound, possible roadblock
locations, possible turn restrictions to minimize intrusion and facilitate traffic flow, possible one-way
designations, evaluation of the 'V' intersection of Key Deer Boulevard and Wilder Road, and consideration of
a traffic circle. It may be possible to develop the project in multiple phases. Fast track items may include
removing the barriers, completing Lyttons Way, and paving existing scarified sections.

I. INTRODUCTION
A. Background
Monroe County, in response to requests from residents living on Big Pine Key, retained the
services of URS to develop this Cross Connector Study. In the 1980's a similar project was
proposed, however due to a combination of then-current land use regulations issues and
environmental issues, the project was stopped.
In the meantime, traffic volumes in the Florida Keys, particularly on U.S. 1, have continued to
grow. In 1994, a building moratorium was enforced on Big Pine Key, in direct relation to the
traffic volumes, delay, and level of service (LOS) on U.S. 1. In 1997 a Big Pine Traffic Task
Team was established to review this issue. The Task Team was comprised of representatives of
the following agencies:
. Monroe County Planning Department
. Monroe County Engineering Department
. Monroe County Sheriff's Office
. Florida Highway Patrol
. Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT)
. Florida Department of Community Affairs (DCA)
. US Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS).
In 1998, an inter-agency Memorandum of Agreement (MOA) was signed to develop a Habitat
Conservation Plan (HCP). The HCP will address impacts to covered species resulting from a
proposed 20-year development program on Big Pine Key and No Name Key. The HCP is
required by the federal government, to describe a conservation and mitigation strategy to
minimize and mitigate an "incidental take" of threatened and endangered species during the
execution ofthe proposed development program.
URS 1
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
The HCP is currently being drafted. The proposed development plan includes this proposed
Cross Connector road on Big Pine Key. Preliminary HCP-model analysis indicates that any plan
should have zero impacts to the Lower Keys marsh rabbit, and that anticipated impacts to Florida
Key deer (and other covered species) are not expected to appreciably reduce the likelihood of
survival and recovery of the species in the wild.
In the HCP discussion of the proposed development plan, some key issues are mentioned. The
development plan considers a variety of possible local road improvements. These include the
construction of a cross-island access road, widening other existing paved local roads to
accommodate bicycle paths, current U.S. 1 improvements at the signalized intersection with Key
Deer Boulevard, and the future FDOT widening of U.S. 1 to three lanes across the business
section of Big Pine Key.
In 2000, a community involvement program called the "Livable CommuniKeys Program" (LCP)
was developed to address local resident concerns. Primary among them was the desire for better
roadways for the local residents. This Cross Connector Study was initiated from the LCP
feedback and general planning considerations by Monroe County.
Other reports also indicate the need for a Cross Connector road. The County annual "U.S. 1
Arterial Travel Time and Delay Study" continues to conclude that the LOS on U.S. 1 is
unacceptable, and therefore the building moratorium continues. As part ofthe LCP, a "Big Pine
Key Transportation Improvement Study" (TIS) was developed in 2000, incorporating public
workshops in the preliminary development of transportation alternatives for Big Pine Key and
URS 2
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
No Name Key, including both U.S. 1 and local roads. The results of the 2000 TIS indicate the
following:
· In general, an improvement to current local traffic patterns and U.S. I LOS is desired;
· The proposed FDOT signalized intersection improvements will not be sufficient by itself;
. A future proposed FDOT three-Ianing project of U.S.l will improve U.S. 1 LOS in the
long term, and a Cross Connector road will improve U.S. 1 LOS in the short term;
· It is recommended that the FDOT three-lane U.S. I as soon as they are permitted to enter
it into their work program and that a Cross Connector road be constructed to alleviate
U.S. 1 traffic.
B. Purpose
The primary purpose of this Cross Connector Study is to provide local east/west connection(s) to
and from residential areas and local attracting destinations so that the locals will not need to
access U.S. 1 for local trips. The secondary purpose of this study is to provide local
connection(s) that will reduce traffic volumes and congestion on U.S.1. This study is consistent
with the HCP, which is currently being drafted, and the on-going LCP.
C. Procedure
This Cross Connector Study has been developed incorporating multiple issues, including
community issues, environmental issues, and engineering issues. Throughout the development
of this study, a Technical Steering Committee has guided the direction of the study. The
Technical Steering Committee consists of representatives ofthe following agencies:
. Monroe County Planning Department
. Monroe County Engineering Department
. FDOT
. DCA
. USFWS.
URS 3
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
The Technical Steering Committee has provided a conduit of information from outside sources
to the development of this study. Meeting minutes are provided in Appendix A. This Cross
Connector Study has also incorporated public input, in the form of a Public Information
Workshop, held on Tuesday, August 13, 2002, from 6:30 P.M. until 9:00 P.M., at the Big Pine
Key Neighborhood School, on Big Pine Key. Additional public input has also been
incorporated.
This Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report will develop, review and analyze
potential east/west local connection(s). The results ofthis Alternatives Evaluation Report will be
incorporated into the on-going analysis in the HCP. The final recommendation of this
Alternatives Evaluation Report will be used to develop a companion document, to be called the
"Big Pine Key Cross Connector Study Preferred Alignment Report" (PAR).

II. EXISTING CONDITIONS
A. Study Area
Big Pine Key is the a largest single island in the Lower Florida Keys. No Name Key is adjacent
to Big Pine Key to the east. A location map is provided in Exhibit 1 at the end of this section.
U.S. 1 is the only arterial roadway that connects Big Pine Key to the rest of the Florida Keys.
Road access to No Name Key is only via Watson Boulevard from Big Pine Key.
U.S. 1 traverses Big Pine Key in and east/west direction. The bulk of the island is on the north
side of U.S. 1. The main north/south roadway on Big Pine Key is Key Deer Boulevard. A
secondary north/south roadway on Big Pine Key is Wilder Boulevard.
For the purposes ofthis Alternatives Evaluation Report, the island of Big Pine Key was reviewed
to determine appropriate study limits. The locations of significant residential areas and key local
attracting destinations on the island were identified. Some of the key residential communities
within the study area are:
. Pine Channel Estates
. Tropical Key Colony
. the Linda/Loma area
. the PineIHammock area
. the Sands area.
Some of the key attracting destinations within the study area are:
. Post Office (adjacent to U.S. 1)
. Shopping Plaza (between Key Deer Boulevard and Wilder Boulevard)
. County Parks.

Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
B. Roadways and Access
A field review was conducted of the existing roadway network within the study area. For the
purposes of this report, paved roadways are considered existing connections. Unpaved
roadways, also known as scarified roadways or dirt roadways, were observed in multiple
locations on the island. However, given the poor road surface conditions, these roadways were
not considered viable usable connections under existing conditions. Although, a few vehicles
were observed to use these unpaved roads.
Based on a review of existing connections within the study area, four distinct pockets of the
study area emerge. The four pockets are indicated in Exhibit 3 and are generally described as:
the "east pocket" which encompasses the area from the east coast to Pine Drive/Ixora Drive; the
"external west pocket" which encompasses the area from the west coast up to but not including
West Sandy Circle; the "internal west pocket" which encompasses the area from West Sandy
Circle to Lorna Lane; and the "central pocket" which encompasses the entire north section of Big
Pine Key, all of No Name Key, and everything else north of U.S. 1 not within one of the other
three pockets. Under existing conditions, there are no east/west connections between these four
pockets. This underscores the need for a Cross Connector road on Big Pine Key to be a part of
the overall transportation solution for the island.
The existing island roadway network within the study area has a few notable features. There is
one signalized intersection on U.S. 1 at Key Deer Boulevard. There are roadblocks across
Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End Road just west of West Sandy Circle. The east side of the
study area is provided with an established network of connecting roadways, in a generally typical
block configuration.

C. General Existing Conditions
An existing conditions aerial figure is provided in Exhibit 4. Most of the existing roadways,
paved or scarified, are identified as public roadways (within Monroe County right-of-way) and
has various widths. Based on preliminary information, some of the roadways are on private
property, and some are on easements across private property. Some of the roadways have homes
and/or businesses abutting them while others traverse mostly vacant land.
In general, the existing land uses within the study area are mainly low and medium-density
residential. There are two mobile home parks that are considered high-density residential.
Commercial property is mostly located along U.S. 1 frontage, in addition to the shopping plaza
located between Key Deer Boulevard and Wilder Road. Publicly owned areas include the water
tower and the prison. Churches own the institutional property. Recreational property generally
indicates public parks. Additionally, there are areas set aside for conservation, typically owned
by the USFWS for environmental purposes.

Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
In. TRAFFIC DATA
In keeping with the purpose of this study, traffic conditions on both U.S. I and local roadways
were reviewed. Existing traffic data were extrapolated to a 20-year future horizon, in keeping
with the 20-year proposed development program in the HCP.
A. Existing and Future Traffic Conditions
Historic daily traffic data and turning movements counts along the U.S. 1 were collected from a
variety of sources such as the "2002 U.S. 1 Arterial Travel Time and Delay Study", the "Big
Pine Key Transportation Improvement Study" (December 2000), and the "Big Pine Key
Origin/Destination Survey" (March 2000). The traffic data were collected during 1999, 2000,
and 2002 and are summarized in Exhibit 5 at the end of this section. In addition to historic data,
hourly turning movement count data were collected for this study on Saturday, July 20, 2002 at
13 locations.
Daily traffic data were collected on Wednesday, July 17, 2002 for this study at nine locations
along U.S. 1. The data are summarized in Exhibit 6A at the end of this section and provided in
Appendix B. Although the data do not reflect peak season conditions, they do indicate the
difference in traffic volumes on different portions of U.S. I on Big Pine Key. It should be noted
that traffic volumes on the east (Marathon) side of the island are significantly lower than
volumes on the west (Key West) side of the island, indicating that the dominant traffic pattern is
to and from Big Pine Key and points south (Key West).
It can also be noted that the segments of U.S. 1 in the middle of the island (near Key Deer
Boulevard) experience higher volumes than segments of U.S. 1 entering or leaving the island.
URS 13
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
These trips reflect the current need for local Big Pine Key trips to use U.S. 1. A local east/west
connection(s) would have the potential to reduce the traffic volumes on these segments of U.S. 1,
alleviating the locals having to contend with the traffic congestion along U.S. I during peak
season, reducing travel times for most local trips, and overall lessening congestion within the
island.
The July 2002 data were adjusted to reflect peak season data using daily traffic counts collected
in March 2002. The peak season daily traffic volumes on U.S. 1 are reflected in Exhibit 6B at
the end of this section. Existing peak season daily volumes for the general study area are
summarized in Exhibit 7.
Year 2022 traffic volumes (a 20-year future horizon) were developed from the collected existing
daily two-way traffic volume data. The U.S. 1 traffic growth rate was obtained from the "2002
U.S. 1 Arterial Travel Time and Delay Study". In that study, regression analyses were conducted
using ten consecutive years of traffic data on Big Pine Key. The annual growth rate on U.S. in
Big Pine Key is 0.14% and was compounded annually to estimate the future traffic volumes on
U.S.1.
Given the current building moratorium and Monroe County policies concerning growth, traffic
volumes on the existing local roadways are not expected to grow at the same rate as U.S. 1.
However, consistent with the HCP proposed development plan, an additional 200 homes were
assumed to be distributed in areas north of U.S. 1, along with the opening of the County park at
the north end of Sands Road. The future year 2022 peak volumes in the area are indicated in
Exhibit 8.

Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
An analysis ofthe traffic data indicates that it is generally consistent with previous origin-
destination (O-D) studies that have been conducted in the area. Using the existing two-way daily
volumes on U.S. 1, Exhibit 9 ofthis section depicts the current general traffic flow patterns on
U.S. 1, including local trips.
B. Traffic Simulation Modeling
Traffic simulation models were developed to generate and distribute traffic volumes on the
roadway network within the study area. The network consisted of the existing paved
connections, both local roads and U.S. 1. The models were later used to compare and analyze
the operation ofa variety of future network changes, such as providing east/west connection(s).
QRS (Quick Response System) was the traffic distribution and assignment planning software
chosen for this study. It is a computer program for forecasting the impacts of development on
roadway traffic and estimating the impacts of roadway projects on travel patterns.
QRS employs a traditional four-step procedure to distribute and assign traffic volumes to the
roadway network:
. Trip Generation
. Trip Distribution
. Model Split
. Traffic Assignment.

CSl MONROE COUNTY, FLORIDA 0-0 TRIPS
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
The required input data for QRS include the land use features (dwelling units, square feet of
commercial buildings, etc.) and traffic-related information (link capacity, link speed, link
distance, intersection characteristics, etc.). The QRS model was built to reflect existing
conditions and includes the nearly complete FDOT intersection improvement project at the
signalized intersection of U.S. 1 with Key Deer Boulevard. The existing network consists of 410
nodes and 491 system links.
Existing land use feature data were obtained from a review of a current parcel database for Big
Pine Key. In generaL residential parcels were considered trip originators and commercial parcels
were considered trip attractors. Trip generation rates were used consistent with the most current
Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) "Trip Generation" report. Both ends of U.S. 1 were
modeled to be consistent with collected daily traffic data. System link speed was set to reflect
posted speed limits.
Adjusted peak season two-way daily traffic volumes' were used to calibrate the existing
conditions QRS model. Traffic simulation calibration information is provided in Appendix. C.
The model was found to simulate existing traffic volume conditions very closely.
The generated future year 2022 traffic volumes were entered into a future conditions QRS
model. The future proposed FDOT three-Ianing project was included in the model of future
conditions. A comparison of the expected future volumes on U.S. 1 and the future conditions
QRS model indicated that the model simulates expected future traffic volume conditions well.
URS 22
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
In addition to the QRS model, a second computer model, SYNCHRO, was used to model the
traffic flow. SYNCHRO is a traffic-engineering model, capable of providing travel time output
data. It also can provide animation of the traffic flow on the roadway network. Output volumes
from QRS and existing turning movement volume distribution data were directly input into the
SYNCHRO models. The animation was used at meetings and at the Public Information
Workshop.
C. Accident Data
Accident data for the entire islands of Big Pine Key and No Name Key were obtained from the
Monroe County Sheriff's Office. A total of 53 crashes in Big Pine Key were reported during the
year 2001. There were no bicycle or pedestrian crashes among the data. There were a total of32
(60%) accidents that occurred on U.S. 1. There was one injury crash that took place adjacent to
the Catholic Church. There were no fatalities during the entire year. The crash data are
illustrated in Exhibit 10.
It can be seen that most crashes occurred at the signalized intersection of U.S. 1 and Key Deer
Boulevard. The interaction between higher volumes of traffic, the long queue at this intersection
and short distance between signal and the geometry at intersection of Key Deer Boulevard and
Wilder Road may contribute to the high number of crashes.
For the year 2001, there were four automobile crash reports involving Key deer. It should be
noted that the FDOT is currently constructing two Key deer underpasses under U.S. 1 on Big
Pine Key. Additional Key deer mortality information is included in the HCP analysis, which is
incorporated into this report.

Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
IV. AL TERNA TIVES ANALYSIS
A. General Concepts
In the development of alternatives for a potential east/west Cross Connector road, logical termini
were established so that alternatives could be fairly compared. For the purposes ofthis study, all
Cross Connector road alternatives will begin at Ships Way on the west and end at Sands Road on
the east. A connector of this length within the study area will connect all four of the separate
pockets on Big Pine Key.
For the purposes of this report, the following general defmitions have been applied to the
alternatives to be evaluated:
. Segment - a relatively short section of a roadway
. Corridor - a combination of segments, generally parallel to other corridors with logical
termini.
. Alignment - the complete Cross Connector road, which may be comprised of one or
more corridors, including parallel corridors.
Some general assumptions for the proposed roadway were made for this preliminary evaluation
of possible alternatives. For the purposes of this report, the proposed Cross Connector road will
consist of:
. two, II-foot-wide, paved, undivided lanes;
. within a 50-foot-wide corridor;
. along a relatively straight east/west alignment.
When a final alignment has been recommended, a more detailed analysis of the Cross Connector
road will be included in the companion to this report, the Preferred Alignment Report (PAR).
The PAR will include consideration of the following items, at a minimum:
URS 25
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
. Specific typical section
. Exact right-of-way width
. Provision of shoulders
. Provision for pedestrians or bicyclists
. Landscapinglstreetscaping techniques
. Location and type oftraffic calming devices
. Key deer signs and/or treatments.
In order to provide a thorough analysis, consideration for potential segments was given to all
types of roadways, from existing paved roadways to scarified lands to new segments. In addition
to an analysis of potential roadways, an analysis of a "Do NothingINo Build" alternative was
also considered. Upon first reviewing the study area, over 150 potential alignments could be
considered, comprised of numerous combinations of possible segments.
In order to reduce the possible alternatives to a more manageable number, a two-step evaluation
process evolved. The first evaluation was at a segment level, keeping only the most viable
choices. The second was at a corridor level, comparing viable choices comprised of the
segments that remained from the first analysis. A more detailed description of the two-step
evaluation process is described later in this report.
URS 26
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
B. Evaluation Criteria
The location of the Cross Connector road must consider a variety of factors. In general, the
criteria used in analyzing potential alignments fall into one ofthree broad categories:
. Community/Human Factors
. EnvironmentaVHistorical Issues
. Engineering/Cost Considerations
In selecting an alternative, a balance must be achieved between the categories. Many decisions
will require a compromise between the various criteria.
One valuable source of evaluation criteria is the HCP, which is currently being drafted. The
source of the data being reviewed in the HCP is provided in Geographic Information System
(GIS) format and is the same source to be used in this report. A variety of GIS information is
currently available, including parcel locations, ownership data, land use designations, and
various environmental data. In addition to the GIS information, aerial photographs of Big Pine
Key, coupled with field reviews of the study area, provide valuable data for comparing
alternatives.
Based on the information available and with direction from the Technical Steering Committee,
the following 15 parameters will be used in the evaluation of alternatives for the Cross
Connector road:
URS 27
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
Communitv/Human Factors
. House Impact: Upon review of aerial and field data, the proposed location of some of
these new segments has the potential to physically impact existing houses or structures.
Segments with this potential are rated lower than other segments.
. Business Impact: Similarly, some new segments have the potential to physically impact
business property and/or the business itself. Segments with this potential are rated lower
than other segments. It should be noted that one of the Monroe County planning
objectives is to encourage commercial development to be oriented to the local
community, so segments adjacent to businesses (but not physically impacting the
structure) would further this objective.
. Parcel Impact: Based on preliminary (GIS) parcel information, potential roadway
segments will abut privately owned parcels, typically on both sides of the segment.
Depending on the final typical section width (to be determined in the future in the PAR)
and the actual width of existing right-of-way, the potential roadway segment may require
some right-of-way acquisition. The number of parcels along a segment gives a relative
indication of cost (number of separate legal titles to be dealt with during acquisition) and
a relative indication of the number of possible residents who may have the Cross
Connector road as a direct connection. Segments with a higher number of potential
parcel impacts are rated lower than other segments.
. Ease of Acauisition: Depending on the ownership of the potential abutting parcels, some
right-of-way acquisition is anticipated to be relatively easier to obtain than others.
Property already owned by Monroe County is ranked most preferred. Undeveloped
privately-owned property is expected to be relatively easier to obtain than developed
parcels. Based on discussions with staff, property owned by the state (Florida
Department of Environmental Protection - FDEP, State Lands Division, commonly
acquired under the Conservation and Recreation Land program - CARL) is for public
purpose and can be converted to other (non-conservation) public uses, however
mitigation would be required. For this project, the cost of acquiring another parcel on
Big Pine Key that is on a FDEP list of desirable properties would have to be factored into
the cost of the Cross Connector road, for mitigation purposes. Federally owned property
URS 28
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
(under the USFWS) is rated lowest, as that property is commonly part of the Key Deer
National Wildlife Refuge. As detailed in the HCP, Key deer lands should be avoided to
the extent possible.
. Community Impact: Corridors were presented at the Public Information Workshop, at
which the residents were asked to rank them. Public input was summarized and corridors
with the most public support are ranked most preferred. In addition, an aerial inspection
analysis was made of the approximate number of actual house structures that abut each
corridor, as a measure of possible extent of negative response to each corridor.
EnvironmentaVHistorlca/ Issues
. Floodplain Impact: From an engineering point of view, it is most desirable to construct
roadways that are outside of the 100-year floodplain as determined by Federal
Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) maps. Construction outside of the 100-year
floodplain is often less expensive than construction within a floodplain.
. Segment Condition: As discussed previously, all types of potential segments were
initially identified. From engineering, cost, and environmental points of view, existing
paved segments are ranked most preferred, and scarified or dirt roads are ranked higher
than new segments.
. Historic Sites: Based on currently available data, in GIS format, a review was made with
respect to the location of potential segments in relation to the location of areas with high
or moderate potential for archeologically significant findings. Segments in areas with
such historic potential are ranked high impact/least preferred.
. Marsh Rabbit: As discussed in the HCP, the Lower Keys marsh rabbit is a covered
species whose numbers are so low that zero impact to their remaining habitat will be
permitted. Therefore, potential segments with impacts to marsh rabbit habitat, as
determined from the GIS database, are ranked high impact/least preferred and
subsequently not considered for further analysis.
. Key Deer: Similarly, the HCP has developed a model of the Key deer habitat on Big
Pine Key. The analysis in the draft HCP has categorized property into three "Tiers" of
land with "Tier I" being the highest quality Key deer habitat, down to "Tier III" which
URS 29
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
provides the least-valuable Key deer habitat. Note that this "Tier" system also
incorporates the other covered species considered in the HCP. The "Tier" GIS data have
been reviewed with respect to potential segments. Segments in "Tier III" are rated
highest for the Cross Connector road, while segments in "Tier I" are rated lowest. It
should be noted that the vast majority ofthe study area is considered "Tier I" so complete
avoidance ofthis tier for the ultimate Cross Connector road is unlikely.
. Vegetation Impact: A variety of vegetation and habitat are also considered in the HCP
for their value relative to covered species. A simplified vegetation GIS database was
obtained from the HCP and was reviewed with respect to potential segments. Segments
impacting wetlands (freshwater, buttonwood, and/or mangrove) are ranked lower than
segments impacting uplands (pinelands and/or hammocks). Segments that are in areas
described as "developed" were ranked low impact/most preferred.
Em!ineerimzlCost Considerations
. Travel Time: Corridors were reviewed with respect to the relative decrease in driving
time it takes to make common local trips, based on SYNCHRO simulation analysis.
Corridors that provide the largest time savings are ranked most preferred.
. Segment Volume: Based on output from the QRS simulation analysis, relative two-way
volumes for various corridors were determined. In genera~ corridors that produced the
highest relative volumes along specified segments are rated lowest and corridors that
produced the best distribution of traffic volumes are rated highest.
. U.S. 1 Level of Service: Based on a review of the output from the engineering simulation
models, corridors were reviewed with respect to the potential for improving traffic flow
on U.S. 1. Corridors anticipated to provide the most relief to U.S. 1 congestion are
ranked most preferred.
. Relative Cost: A construction cost estimate for each corridor was developed, based on
the length ofthe centerline ofthe roadway. Cost factors included the segment conditions.
Corridors with the lowest costs are rated highest.
URS 30
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
At the segment-level analysis, the evaluation focused on environmental/historical issues, along
with some community/human factors and a few general engineering/cost considerations. At the
corridor-level analysis, more extensive engineering and cost analyses were performed, which,
along with pertinent community feedback from the Public Involvement Workshop, were used to
develop the recommended alternative. Each segment and corridor was ranked in a relative
manner respective to comparable alternatives. Corridors were also ranked relative to the "Do
NothingINo Build" alternative.
C. Segment Determination
The entire study area was reviewed to determine possible east/west segments for the Cross
Connector roadway. All types of potential segments were initially accepted, including existing
paved roads, scarified or dirt roads and new segments.
Ten segment areas were identified. The segments generally run from east to west, and terminate
at logical north/south existing points. This allows for the maximum number of combinations to
be considered. A description of the ten segment areas is listed below, from west to east:
. Yellow Area - from Ships Way to West Sandy Circle
. Blue Area - from West Sandy Circle to East Sandy Circle
. Green Area - from East Sandy Circle to Lorna Lane
. Red Area - from Lorna Lane to Key Deer Boulevard
. Magenta Area - from Key Deer Boulevard to Wilder Road
. Turquoise Area - from Wilder Road to Pine Drive/Ixora Drive
. Orange Area - from Pine DrivelIxora Drive to Palmetto Drive
. Purple Area - from Palmetto Drive to County Road
. Brown Area - from County Road to Sands Road.
URS 31
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
The ten segment areas and all of the identified segments are indicated on an aerial photograph of
the study area in Exhibit 11 and in reference to GIS parcel information in Exhibit 12. Exhibit 11
also identifies the actual segment conditions, whether it is an existing paved road, a scarified
road, or a new segment. Each of the segments is described in detail and analyzed in Appendix
D. A comparative review of the various segments within each color area was performed using
ten of the evaluation criteria described previously.
D. Corridor Determination
After the preliminary segment analysis in Appendix D, the remaining segments were combined
in a logical fashion to create parallel corridors for further analysis. A review of the potential
corridors indicated that the two areas west and east of Wilder Boulevard can operate somewhat
independently. Therefore west corridors and east corridors were developed for separate analysis.
All west corridors begin at Ships Way and end at Wilder Road. All east corridors begin at
Wilder Road and end at Sands Road.
From the segments that remain from the first analysis, four main corridors were developed on
both the west and east sides of the study area. Because of the potential to connect the remaining
segments in multiple ways, secondary corridors were also developed. At this stage in the
evaluation, all corridors were compared to a "Do Nothing/No Build" alternative. In addition,
based on input from the Technical Steering Committee, a corridor containing a combination of
multiple simultaneous corridors was also considered.

Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
A total of nine east corridors and six west corridors (including one "Do Nothing/No Build"
alternative for each area) were developed for further evaluation. The west corridors are depicted
in Exhibit 13 at the end of this section and the east corridors are depicted in Exhibit 14 at the end
of this section. In general, the corridors are listed from north to south. The original segments
that created each of the corridors are detailed in Appendix D and are listed below, along with a
detailed description of each corridor.
WEST CORRIDORS:
. Corridor W-O: This is the "Do Nothing/No Build" alternative for the west side of the
study area.
. Corridor W-l: This corridor is comprised of segments Y-3, B-2, 0-2, R-l, and M-3. It
incorporates Harbor Lights Road, a short jog to the north on West Sandy Circle, Lyttons
Way, a short jog to the south on Key Deer Boulevard, and Lyttons Way. For analysis
purposes, the existing roadblocks on both Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End Road
are considered to be removed and both roadways open to through traffic. Approximately
nine existing houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor W-2-1: This corridor is comprised of segments Y-4, B-4-1, B-4-2, 0-4, R-2,
and M-4. It incorporates Journeys End Road, a short jog to the south on West Sandy
Circle, a new east/west segment, a short jog to the north on Palmetto Avenue, a new
east/west segment connecting to the west end of the water tower road, the water tower
road, a northerly jog on Key Deer Boulevard, and Church Lane. For analysis purposes,
the existing roadblocks on both Harbor Lights Road and Journeys End Road are
considered to be removed and both roadways open to through traffic. Approximately 21
existing houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor W-2-2: This corridor is comprised of segments Y-4, B-4-1, B-4-2, 0-4, R-2,
and M-5. It incorporates Journeys End Road, a short jog to the south on West Sandy
Circle, a new east/west segment, a short jog to the north on Palmetto A venue, a new
east/west segment connecting to the west end of the water tower road, the water tower
road, a southerly jog on Key Deer Boulevard, and a new segment between the two banks.
For analysis purposes, the existing roadblocks on both Harbor Lights Road and Journeys
URS 35

End Road are considered to be removed and both roadways open to through traffic.
Approximately 21 existing houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor W -3A: This corridor is comprised of segments Y -SA, B-7, G-6, R-3A, and M-
S. It incorporates a new east/west segment aligning with Enterprise Avenue, adjacent to
the north property line of the mobile home park, a north/south segment on existing
County property on the east side of the mobile home park. an east/west segment on
existing County property, a jog south on West Sandy Circle, South Sandy Circle, a jog
north on East Sandy Circle, a new east/west segment on existing County property, a jog
north on Loma Lane, a new east/west segment adjacent to the north property line of the
lumber business, a northeasterly existing scarified segment, and a new segment between
the two banks. It should be noted that although segment R-4A was eliminated from
further consideration, another similar alignment connecting the Lorna Lane to the north
property line of the lumber business could also be accommodated. Given the proximity
ofthe segment between the banks and the existing signalized/Y intersection on U.S.l, for
analysis purposes the section of Wilder Road between 24th Street and U.S. 1 is assumed
to be closed to through traffic, maintaining access to existing driveways. The intersection
with Key Deer Boulevard is a potential candidate for a roundabout. Approximately 21
existing houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor W-3B: This corridor is comprised of segments V-SA, B-7, G-6, R-3, and M-6.
It incorporates a new east/west segment aligning with Enterprise Avenue, adjacent to the
north property line of the mobile home park, a north/south segment on existing County
property on the east side of the mobile home park, an east/west segment on existing
County property, a jog south on West Sandy Circle, South Sandy Circle, a jog north on
East Sandy Circle, a new east/west segment on existing County property, a jog north on
Loma Lane, a new east/west segment adjacent to the north property line of the
businesses, and a new segment between the two banks. It should be noted that although
segment R-4A was eliminated from further consideration, another similar alignment
connecting the Loma Lane to the north property line of the lumber business could also be
accommodated. Given the proximity of the segment between the banks and the existing
signalized/Y intersection on U.S.l, for analysis purposes the section of Wilder Road
between 24th Street and U.S. 1 is assumed to be closed to through traffic, maintaining
URS 36
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
access to existing driveways. The intersection with Key Deer Boulevard is a potential
candidate for a roundabout. Approximately 15 existing houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor W-4A: This corridor is comprised of segments Y-7A, B-8, G-7, R-5A, and M-
5. It incorporates Henry Lane, a new north/south segment on existing County property, a
new east/west segment within the U.S. 1 right-of-way, a new north/south segment on
undeveloped property between the two lumber businesses, a northeasterly existing
scarified segment, and a new segment between the two banks. Given the proximity of the
segment between the banks and the existing signalized/Y intersection on U.S.l, for
analysis purposes the section of Wilder Road between 24th Street and U.S. 1 is assumed
to be closed to through traffic, maintaining access to existing driveways. The intersection
with Key Deer Boulevard is a potential candidate for a roundabout. Approximately two
houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor W-4B: This corridor is comprised of segments Y-7A, B-8, G-7, R-5A, and M-
6. It incorporates Henry Lane, a new north/south segment on existing County property, a
new east/west segment within the U.S. 1 right-of-way, a new north/south segment on
undeveloped property between the two lumber businesses, a new east/west segment
adjacent to the north property line of the businesses, and a new segment between the two
banks. Given the proximity of the segment between the banks and the existing
signalized/Y intersection on U.S.l, for analysis purposes the section of Wilder Road
between 24th Street and U.S. 1 is assumed to be closed to through traffic, maintaining
access to existing driveways. The intersection with Key Deer Boulevard is a potential
candidate for a roundabout. Approximately two houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor W-S: This is a combination corridor. In keeping with good planning and
engineering practices, and based on a preliminary evaluation of the other eight corridors,
it was determined that a combination of Corridor W-l and Corridor W-3A would be
evaluated. Approximately 21 existing houses abut these two corridors, total.
EAST CORRIDORS
. Corridor E-O: This is the "Do Nothing/No Build" alternative for the west side of the
study area.
. Corridor E-l: This corridor is comprised of segments T-2, 0-1, P-l, Pi-I, and Br-l. It
incorporates Lyttons Way, a short jog north on Ixora Drive, and Hibiscus Drive.
Approximately nine existing houses abut this corridor.
URS 37
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
. Corridor E-2: This corridor is comprised of segments T -3, 0-3, P-3, Pi-3, and Br-3. It
incorporates 22nd Street, a short jog south and then east on an existing scarified segment,
a short jog south on Cunningham Lane, Hammock Drive, a short jog south on County
Road, and Bailey Road. To provide a consistent basis for analysis, this corridor identifies
the use of Hammock Drive and Bailey Road, however it should be noted that upon
connection to Cunningham Lane, the entire existing interconnected roadway system on
the east side of the island is actually available. Approximately 23 existing houses abut
this corridor.
. Corridor E-3: This corridor is comprised of segments T-5, 0-5, P-6, Pi-6, and Br-7. It
incorporates 24th Street, a short jog north on Pine Drive, Mac Court, a jog north on
Cunningham Lane, Hammock Drive, a short jog south on County Road, and Bailey Road.
To provide a consistent basis for analysis, this corridor identifies the use of Hammock
Drive and Bailey Road, however it should be noted that upon connection to Cunningham
Lane, the entire existing interconnected roadway system on the east side of the island is
actually available. It should also be noted that although segment 0-6 was eliminated
from further consideration, another similar alignment connecting the east end of 24th
Street to Cunningham Lane, south of Mac Court, could also be accommodated.
Approximately 12 existing houses abut this corridor.
. Corridor E-4: This corridor is comprised of segments T -6A, 0-7, P-6, Pi-6, and Br-7.
It incorporates a new east/west segment behind the developed parcels, a new north/south
jog between developed parcels, a new east/west segment adjacent to U.S. 1 (but not
within the FDOT right-of-way), and Avenue A. To provide a consistent basis for
analysis, this corridor identifies the use of A venue A, however it should be noted that
upon connection to Cunningham Lane, the entire existing interconnected roadway system
on the east side of the island is actually available. It appears that zero existing houses
abut this corridor.
. Corridor E-5: This is a combination corridor. In keeping with good planning and
engineering practices, and based on a preliminary evaluation of the other five corridors, it
was determined that a combination of Corridor E-l and Corridor E-3 would be evaluated.
Approximately 21 existing houses abut these two corridors, total.

E. Corridor Comparison
A comparative review of the different corridors was performed using the ten sets of evaluation
criteria used in the segment analysis and five additional parameters. For each parameter, the
corridors were assigned a relative ranking, from low impact (most preferred), to intermediate, to
high impact (least preferred). An evaluation matrix for each corridor including the expanded
criteria will be used to make final recommendations. In general, for the parameters that were
reviewed in the segment analyses, an overall corridor ranking was determined from a review of a
summation of the individual segments. Relative rankings between the corridors were made for
parcel impact, segment conditions, and Key Deer impacts. Both west and east corridors were
compared to a "Do Nothing/No Build" alternative.
The additional parameters considered for the corridors but not for the segments include the
engineering/cost criteria of travel time, segment volume, U.S. 1 LOS, and relative cost.
Combinations of logical west and east corridors were selected and modeled using the traffic
simulation software. To analyze travel time, a series of origin-destination (O-D) combinations
were determined, to represent common local trips that currently must access U.S. 1. The O-D
points are indicated in Exhibit 15 at the end of this section and are described below:
. Point 1 - residential origins in the east pocket, and the destination of the County park.
. Point 2 - residential origins in the north portion of the central pocket.
. Point 3 - residential origins in the internal west pocket.
. Point 4 - residential origins in the external west pocket.
. Point 5 - the destination of the shopping plaza.
. Point 6 - the destination of the post office.
. Point 7 - the destination ofthe ballpark.
URS 41
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
The model included reasonable business connections to the proposed roads and assumed access
management techniques were employed along the U.S. 1 frontage roads to reduce intrusion.
Travel times were compared to existing conditions. Corridors with the greatest reduction in
travel time were ranked highest. Similarly, segment volumes along specific existing roadways
were reviewed under existing conditions and with various Cross Connector road corridors in
place. In general, corridors that produced the highest relative volumes along specified segments
were rated lowest and corridors that produced the best distribution of traffic volumes were
ranked most preferred. Travel time and segment volume data are provided in Appendix C.
Reviewing U.S. 1 simulation conditions, corridors that provided the most relief to U.S. 1
congestion were rated highest.
Relative construction cost estimates for each separate corridor were developed. The centerline
length of each corridor was graphically determined. General statewide roadway transportation
construction costs were obtained from FDOT data. The cost rates were based on the assumption
of an undivided, rural, two-lane roadway, with paved shoulders, and no major structures. The
available data were based on 1999 research, so a five-percent per year inflation factor was
applied. In addition, in recognition of the unique situation of the Florida Keys as compared to
the rest of the state of Florida, a 15% area adjustment factor was applied. Based on the above
considerations, the centerline construction cost rate for existing paved roadway segments (which
are assumed to only require milling and resurfacing) was estimated at $467,000 per mile and the
centerline construction cost rate for all other roadway segments (conservatively including both
scarified and new) was estimated at $1,574,000 per mile. Relative cost estimates for each
corridor are provided in Appendix E. Corridors with the lowest costs were rated highest.

F. Public Information Workshop
The corridor analysis also includes a community impact parameter. As mentioned previously, an
aerial inspection analysis was made of the approximate number of actual house structures that
abut each corridor. This factor of community impact was indicated in the corridor determination
detailed descriptions above.
In order to obtain residents' feedback, a Public Information Workshop was held on Tuesday,
August 13,2002, from 6:30 P.M. until 9:00 P.M., at the Big Pine Key Neighborhood School, on
Big Pine Key. At the meeting, an overview was given of the Cross Connector Study, including
the corridors under review and the preliminary evaluation matrix that had been completed to
date.
At the meeting, a feedback sheet was provided to attendees, who were asked to rank the nine
west and six east corridors. Feedback sheets were generally made available to the public after
the workshop as well. Through the Technical Steering Committee, other public input (letters,
articles, and faxes) was also received.
During the workshop and the time that followed, 127 feedback sheets were received. The public
was asked to rank the west and east corridors separately, relative to each other. The public input
for each corridor is summarized in Appendix F. A review of the feedback indicates the
following about the responses:
URS 44
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
WEST CORRIDORS:
. The vast majority (88%) desires to "do something" and most (66%) ranked the Corridor
W-O (Do Nothing) lowest.
. Corridor W-5 (the combination of Lyttons Way plus Main Street) was ranked the highest
(38%) overall.
. Corridor W-l (Lyttons Way) was ranked second highest.
. The frontage road corridors (W-4A and W-4B) were ranked next, with a very slight
preference for Corridor W-4B.
. In general, when individuals ranked Corridor W-5 (the combination) first, Corridor W-l
(Lyttons Way) was ranked second.
. In general, when individuals ranked Corridor W-O (Do Nothing) first, the frontage road
corridors (W-4A and W-4B) were ranked second.
EAST CORRIDORS:
. The vast majority (84%) desires to "do something" and most (66%) ranked the Corridor
E-O (Do Nothing) lowest.
. Corridor E-5 (the combination of Lyttons Way plus 24th Street) was ranked the highest
(38%) overall.
. Corridor E-l (Lyttons Way) was ranked second highest.
. The frontage road corridor (E-4) was ranked next.
. In general, when individuals ranked Corridor E-5 (the combination) first, Corridor E-l
(Lyttons Way) was ranked second.
. In general, when individuals ranked Corridor E-O (Do Nothing) first, the frontage road
corridor (E-4) was ranked second.
OTHER GENERAL COMMENTS
. There were many requests to improve (or four-lane) U.S. 1, with or without a cross
connector roadway.
. The idea that "something has to be done" was frequently repeated.
. Generally, residents do not want the roadway in their neighborhood, which was often
coupled with the idea that the business/frontage road corridors would be best.
. There were frequent comments stating that the combination corridors seemed the best and
the most fair for all the people and needs.
. Some requests were made to review traffic on Ships Way.

V. CONCLUSIONS
To determine the preferred alignment for the Cross Connector roadway, a review of the
evaluation matrix for the west and east corridors in Exhibit 16 and Exhibit 17 respectively is
summarized below for each of the corridors. The review includes the community/human factors,
environmentaVhistorical issues, and engineering/cost considerations. As discussed previously,
there is no differentiation between any of the corridors on the criteria of floodplain, historic sites,
or marsh rabbit impacts.
A. West Corridor Summary
Corridor W -0 (Do Nothing) has the least impacts of the west corridors, overall. However it does
not address the need to provide local east/west connection( s) to and from residential areas and
local attracting destinations so that the locals will not need to access U.S. 1 for local trips. Also,
it does not provide local connection(s) that will reduce traffic volumes and congestion on U.S.!.
In addition, it is not preferred by the public, as indicated in the feedback forms from the Public
Workshop.
None of the west corridors are expected to physically impact a house structure, except maybe
Corridor W-4A and Corridor W-4B. Upon more detailed survey and right-of-way information,
this issue can be clarified, however for the purposes of this report, these two corridors were
conservatively ranked intermediate.
Both of the frontage road corridors, Corridor W-4A and Corridor W-4B will have significant
impacts to existing businesses along U.S. 1, and therefore are ranked high impact/least preferred
URS 48
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
for this criteria. Corridor W-2-1 and Corridor W-2-2 were ranked intermediate, conservatively
indicating possible impacts along the water tower road to the water tower or abutting church.
Relatively all of the west corridors will impact approximately the same number of parcels, given
that they all traverse similar residential areas. Corridor W-4A and Corridor W-4B are rated
highest for this criteria because they abut the least number of parcels.
As discussed previously, actual quantities of potential right-of-way acquisition is beyond this
phase ofthe study. However, a review ofthe ownership ofthe parcels abutting each of the west
corridors was made to determine the possible parties who may be involved should right-of-way
acquisition be required. If any of the abutting parcels are federally-owned, the corridor was
ranked least preferred. This does not necessarily mean that federally-owned property will be
required, but is a relative measure of comparison between the alternatives. Corridor W-4A and
Corridor W-4B either involve county-owned parcels or are located within existing FDOT right-
of-way, and therefore were rated highest for this criteria.
Of all the west corridors, Corridor W-2-2 has the greatest number of new segments and therefore
is ranked least preferred. Corridor W-l and Corridor W-2-1 have the greatest number of paved
segments and therefore are ranked most preferred for this criteria.
For Key Deer impact, the individual segment impacts were reviewed. Broadly speaking,
potential for Key deer impact decreases from the north to the south of the study area. Corridor
W-l, Corridor W-2-1, Corridor W-2-2, and (by association with Corridor W-l) Corridor W-5 are
comprised of segments with greatest Key Deer impact. Therefore, they are ranked least
preferred for this criteria. Similarly, Corridor W-3A and Corridor W-3B are of segments with
URS 49
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
intermediate Key Deer impact and are ranked intermediate. Corridor W-4A and Corridor W-4B
are comprised of segments with least Key Deer impact, in part to being located within FDOT
right-of-way, and are therefore ranked most preferred.
In a similar manner, for vegetation impact, Corridor W-I and (by association) Corridor W-5 are
comprised of segments that include segments ranked least preferred. Therefore, these corridors
are ranked least preferred. Corridor W-4A and Corridor W-4B are comprised of segments that
include segments ranked most preferred. Therefore, these corridors are ranked most preferred.
From an engineering and planning perspective, multiple parallel corridors are generally the
preferred design. The travel time analysis indicated that Corridor W-5 and Corridor W-l
provided the greatest and second greatest reductions in travel time for residents, respectively.
The travel time analysis for Corridor W-4A and W-4B indicates no change in travel time. This is
because of the extreme close proximity of the frontage road concept to U.S. 1, which, unlike the
other alternatives, can be directly seen from U.S. 1. In addition, Corridor W-4A and W-4B
would require additional engineering effort to discourage through volumes on U.S. 1 from using
the frontage road. Intruding U.S. 1 volumes will negatively impact the travel time for these two
corridors. Corridor W -0 (Do Nothing) provides zero improvement to existing travel times and
therefore is ranked least preferred.
A review of the estimated segment volume conditions for each of the west corridors indicates
that, by far, Corridor W-5 (as part of Alternative 5) produces the best distribution of traffic on
the proposed road network, equitably assigning traffic to a wide variety of roadways, therefore
not focusing the traffic on anyone path. The analysis also indicates that Corridor W-l (as part of
URS 50
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
Alternative I) concentrates the highest volume of traffic on the fewest number of roads, and
therefore is ranked least preferred. This is because of the relatively direct alignment and the
location of the corridor so far to the north, which primarily facilitates only those trips outside of
Big Pine Key (Key West, Marathon, etc.) and not those trips to local attractors (Post Office,
Shopping Plaza, etc.).
For the U.S. 1 LOS criteria, a review of the traffic simulation models indicates that Corridor W-5
and Corridor W-l will provide the greatest relief to congestion on U.S. 1 and therefore are
ranked most preferred. Corridor W-5 provides multiple alternatives to U.S. 1 which locals will
be able to use for a variety of trip types. Corridor W-l, as discussed above, will provide a better
connection for trips to and from Big Pine Key and points outside (Key West, Marathon, etc.). As
noted in the traffic analysis herein, and indicated in Exhibit 9, this is the predominant O-D pair
for Big Pine Key. Removing this traffic stream from the signalized intersection on U.S. 1 will
provide congestion relief to U.S. 1. Corridor W-O (Do Nothing) provides zero improvement to
the conditions on U.S. 1 and therefore is ranked least preferred.
The relative cost of each of the west corridors was also considered. Note, these relative costs are
for comparative purposes only, and do not reflect actual construction or right-of-way costs,
which can only be determined after more detailed design decisions have been made in the
companion PAR document. Corridor W-5 (the combination of two alternatives) and Corridor
W-3B have the highest relative costs of all the west alternatives and therefore were ranked least
preferred for this criteria. Corridor W-l, Corridor W-4A and Corridor W-4B have the lowest
relative costs of all the west alternatives and therefore were ranked most preferred for this
criteria.
URS 51
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
The west corridors were ranked from the public feedback received for community impact. In
addition, a review of the number of houses abutting a corridor was completed. As can be seen in
Appendix F, by far, Corridor W-5 and Corridor W-l were ranked most preferred and second
most preferred of all the west alternatives. Corridor W-O (Do Nothing) was rated last. Corridor
W-4A and Corridor W-4B have the fewest houses abutting them, while Corridor W-2-1 and
Corridor W-2-2 have the most houses abutting them.
B. East Corridor Summary
Corridor E-O (Do Nothing) has the least impacts overall. However it does not address the need
to provide local east/west connection( s) to and from residential areas and local attracting
destinations so that the locals will not need to access U.S. 1 for local trips. Also, it does not
provide local connection(s) that will reduce traffic volumes and congestion on U.S.!. In
addition, it is not preferred by the public, as indicated in the feedback forms from the Public
Workshop.
None of the east corridors are expected to physically impact a house structure. Therefore all are
ranked low impact for this criteria.
The frontage road corridor, Corridor E-4 will have significant impacts to existing businesses
along U.S. 1, and therefore is ranked high impact/least preferred for this criteria. None of the
other east corridors are expected to have business impacts.
Although the east corridors will impact nearly the same number of parcels, counting the number
of parcels along each corridor, Corridor E-2 has the greatest number, and therefore is ranked
URS 52
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
least preferred. Corridor E-4, which abuts fewer, larger business properties and abuts U.S. 1
along the south, has the smallest number, and therefore is ranked the most preferred.
As discussed previously, actual quantities of potential right-of-way acquisition is beyond this
phase ofthe study. However, a review of the ownership of the parcels abutting each of the east
corridors was made to determine the possible parties who may be involved should right-of-way
acquisition be required. If any of the abutting parcels are federally-owned, the corridor was
ranked least preferred. This does not necessarily mean that federally-owned property will be
required, but is a relative measure of comparison between the alternatives. While all of the east
corridors abut some federally-owned property, Corridor E-3 and (by association) Corridor E-5
appear to abut the most, and therefore are ranked least preferred.
Of all the east corridors, Corridor E-4 has the greatest number of new segments and therefore is
ranked least preferred. Corridor E-l, Corridor E-3, and (by association) E-5 have the greatest
number of paved segments and therefore are ranked most preferred.
For Key deer impact, the individual segment impacts were reviewed. Broadly speaking,
potential for Key deer impact decreases from the north to the south of the study area. Corridor
E-2 is comprised of segments, the majority of which were ranked least preferred for this criteria.
Therefore, it is ranked least preferred. Similarly, Corridor E-4 is comprised of segments, the
majority of which were ranked most preferred for this criteria, in part to being located along
A venue A and is therefore ranked most preferred.
URS 53
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
In a similar manner, for vegetation impact, Corridor E-4 is comprised of segments that include
segments ranked most preferred. Therefore, this corridor is ranked most preferred.
From an engineering and planning perspective, multiple parallel corridors are generally the
preferred design. The travel time analysis indicated that Corridor E-5 and Corridor E-l provided
the greatest and second greatest reductions in travel time for residents, respectively. The travel
time analysis for Corridor E-4 indicates no change in travel time. This is because of the extreme
close proximity of the frontage road concept to U.S. 1, which, unlike the other alternatives, can
be directly seen from U.S. 1. In addition, Corridor E-4 would require additional engineering
effort to discourage through volumes on U.S. 1 from using the frontage road. Intruding U.S. 1
volumes will negatively impact the travel time for this corridor. Corridor E-O (Do Nothing)
provides zero improvement to existing travel times and therefore is ranked least preferred.
A review of the estimated segment volume conditions for each of the corridors indicates that, by
far, Corridor E-5 (as part of Alternative 5) produces the best distribution of traffic on the
proposed road network, equitably assigning traffic to a wide variety of roadways, therefore not
focusing the traffic on anyone path. The analysis also indicates that Corridor E-l (as part of
Alternative 1) concentrates the highest volume of traffic on the fewest number of roads, and
therefore is ranked least preferred. This is because of the relatively direct alignment and the
location of the corridor so far to the north, which does not facilitate trips to local attractors (Post
Office, Shopping Plaza, etc.) from the existing typical block configuration on the east side of the
island.
URS 54
Big Pine Key - Cross Connector Study Alternatives Evaluation Report
For the U.S. 1 LOS criteria, a review of the traffic simulation models indicates that Corridor E-5
will provide the greatest relief to congestion on U.S. 1 and therefore is ranked most preferred.
Corridor E-5 provides multiple alternatives to U.S. 1 which locals will be able to use for a
variety of trip types. Corridor E-O (Do Nothing) provides zero improvement to the conditions on
U.S. 1 and therefore is ranked least preferred.
The relative cost of each of the corridors was also considered. Note, these relative costs are for
comparative purposes only, and do not reflect actual construction or right-of-way costs, which
can only be determined after more detailed design decisions have been made in the companion
PAR document. Corridor E-5 (the combination of two alternatives) has the highest relative costs
of all the east alternatives and therefore was ranked least preferred for this criteria. Corridor E-l
and Corridor E-2 have the lowest relative costs of all the east alternatives and therefore were
ranked most preferred for this criteria.
The corridors were ranked indicating public feedback for community impact. In addition, a
review ofthe number of houses abutting a corridor was completed. As can be seen in Appendix
F, by far, Corridor E-5 and Corridor E-l were ranked most preferred and second most preferred
of all the alternatives. Corridor E-O (Do Nothing) was rated last. Corridor E-4 appears to have
zero houses abutting it, while Corridor E-2 has the most houses abutting it.

VI. RECOMMENDATIONS
A. Preferred Alignment
Based on a review of all the analyses herein, it is recommended that the pairing of Corridor W-5
and Corridor E-5 be developed into the Cross Connector roadway. The preferred alignment
fulfills both the primary and secondary purposes of this study. The selection is actually two
generally parallel east/west alignments. The two alignments are comprised of the following
segments:
. Harbor Lights Road! Lyttons Way/ Hibiscus Drive, and
. A new "Main Street" aligning with Enterprise A venue/ South Sandy Circle/ a new east-
west segment, using the scarified angled road! a new road between the banks/24th Street!
Mac Court/ Hammock Drive/ Bailey Road.
The preferred alignment includes removing the barricades from both Harbor Lights Road and
Journeys End Road. The preferred west side corridors are depicted in Exhibit 18 at the end of
this section. The preferred east side corridors are depicted in Exhibit 19 at the end of this
section.
The recommended alignment is not expected to physically impact any houses or any businesses.
There are 18 houses fronting the north alignment and 27 houses fronting the south alignment.
Like all of the corridors, the recommended alignment abuts some federally-owned parcels. The
need to acquire federally-owned property, if any, has not yet been determined. The
recommended alignment also abuts state-owned parcels. Mitigation for this, if any, has not yet
been determined. The recommended alignment is comprised of a mixture of existing paved
roads, scarified roads and some segments of new road. Like all of the corridors, portions of the

recommended alignment are within Tier 1 areas, and will require coordination with the HCP to
ameliorate environmental impacts. Of all the alternatives, the recommended alignment produces
the most reduction in resident travel times on the island, distributes the volumes in the most
efficient manner, and has the most positive impact on lessening congestion on U.S.1. Because of
it is comprised of two alignments, it has the highest relative cost of all alternatives considered.
Based on a review of public input, the recommended alignment is the most preferred alternative.
B. Other Considerations
The forth-coming companion Preferred Alignment Report (PAR) will provide more detailed
information about the recommended alignments. The PAR will include consideration of the
following items, at a minimum:
. Specific typical section(s) and lane width(s)
. Exact right-of-way width(s)
. More detailed easement and ownership data
. Provision of shoulders (paved or unpaved)
. Provision for pedestrians, if any
. Provision for bicyclists, if any
. Provision of roadway lighting, if any
. Landscapinglstreetscaping techniques, if any
. Key deer signs and/or treatments
. More detailed construction cost estimates
Other items to be considered in the detailed final analysis of the alignments include further
evaluation of the following:
. Location of speed humps for traffic calming speed control
. Location of STOP signs
. Possible right turn lane on Ships Way southbound
. Possible roadblock locations

. Possible turn restrictions to minimize intrusion and facilitate traffic flow
. Possible one-way designations
. Evaluation of the Y intersection of Key Deer Boulevard and Wilder Road
. Consideration of a traffic circle
It may be possible to develop the project in multiple phases. Fast track items may include
removing the barriers, completing Lyttons Way, and paving existing scarified sections.
