Huntington, WV-KY-OH Urbanized area Transportation Management Area • TMA designation in July 18, 2012 • TMA Population – 202,637 (urbanized) • MSA Population ~ 365,000 (also includes one other county in WV) • KYOVA Planning Boundary grew • Now includes Boyd and Greenup counties in Kentucky and Putnam County in West Virginia o RIC, the MPO in Charleston is taking lead in planning responsibilities for Putnam County
What is the Project Purpose? Evaluate and address mobility issues due to flooding and related events Identify stormwater improvements to positively impact the traffic network Identify mitigation measures that can be taken to decrease the likelihood of future catastrophic events Study the flow of all traffic (motorized and non- motorized) through the identified problem areas

Recommendations Rec ecommen ommenda dations tions June 3, 2008
This test case focused on CSO #12 to mitigate flooding in the Hal Greer Boulevard underpass. The proposed alternatives were evaluated for the following goals: Eliminate underpass flooding up to a 5-year design storm. Eliminate the localized flooding issues within the basin. Reduce the number of CSO events per City of Huntington, WV Long Term Control Plan (LTCP). Improve water quality.

Preferred Alternatives Comparison
Complete Streets The plan identified 9 projects in Huntington where CSO improvements, roadway improvements, and rightsizing, coupled with installation of green infrastructure, can achieve these goals: Reduce impervious surfaces throughout the city and increase groundwater recharge and retention of stormwater Reduce vehicle speeds and make drivers more aware of their surroundings Create community identity and provide a sense of place for each corridor Improve safety for all travel modes Provide opportunities for users, regardless of economic status, and reduce dependence on single driver trips Encourage redevelopment and community investment
