The project goals include:  

• Integrating multi-modal transportation options (walking and rolling, cycling, transit, and driving) 

• Supporting sustainable, efficient, and accessible travel for all ages and abilities 

• Balancing space needs for deliveries, loading, and parking for mixed travel types
