Why were certain western alignments developed by Baker subsequently recommended for elimination from detailed study?
Some western alignments do not meet the purpose and need for the proposed action because: • They lack conformity with existing plans (TCAPC, Purdue) that call for connections with extensions of Cherry Lane and Cumberland Avenue. • According to current and future traffic models, they will not generate enough volume to lessen present (and future predicted) traffic congestion and accidents on roads and intersections near the Purdue University campus (i.e. Northwestern Avenue, McCormick Road, State Street, etc.). This is because traffic destined for the north side of West Lafayette is not likely to go very far west only to return eastward. • They are inconsistent with the intent of local land use plans (TCAPC, Wabash Township), which call for maintaining the rural character of the area.
