    Hard to imagine a solution for this section that will work except either 1) If/when climate change makes Snowbowl close... which will probably happen just as we're finishing whatever traffic solution we find to this problem. or 2) we develop true mass-transit solutions for the major attractors (eg schools and Snowbowl) that people will actually use. I tried using the bus to Snowbowl twice and gave up, there was too little capacity. Similarly if we can't find good transportation alternatives for schools (instead of what seems like every parent driving every child to school) it remains a problem. I would much prefer alternative #2 because it could develop into healthier children and neighborhoods and not just be the standard solution of applying more and more traffic lanes, which divide and diminish the character of a town. Steamboat Springs has committed to truly workable public and tourist transportation for their ski area and their downtown area as have other towns, and I suspect the same would be true of school transport as well. BTW I ride a bicycle on streets adjacent to Humphreys. The current configuration of Humphreys is not comfortable for a bicyclist and not pleasant for pedestrians.

Step 1: Read the descriptions of the qualities below

Vehicular Safety: Fix known unsafe conditions for automobiles traveling on or across Milton Road, Humphreys Street, and US 180 (Fort Valley Road).

Social & Environmental Impacts: Limit the impacts of future investments on low-income populations, minority populations, and environmental resources. For rural areas on US 180, this also includes safe wildlife crossings.

Expanded Travel Choices: Improve conditions, including safety, for walking, biking and riding the bus along and across the roadway (Examples: wider sidewalks, enhanced crossings).

Property Impacts & Project Cost: Minimize impacts to properties and keep project costs lower. Consider grant funding opportunities for construction.

Community Character: Invest in opportunities, such as landscaping, pedestrian seating, and bike racks to make Milton Road, Humphreys Street, and US 180 (Fort Valley Road) more attractive for all users.

Public Support: Favor corridor improvements that receive broad public support.
