The Grand Junction Circulation Plan is adopted as part of the
Comprehensive Plan.
(Ord. 4808, 7-18-18)
The community envisions a safe, balanced and environmentally
sensitive multi-modal, urban transportation system that supports greater
social interaction, facilitates the movement of people and goods,
and encourages active living, mobility independence, and convenient
access to goods and services for all users.
A multi-modal transportation system should accommodate pedestrians,
bicyclists, motorists, movers of goods, and transit; and should be
safe and navigable for all users. It must provide transportation options
to all users including those with limited mobility such as children,
seniors, and persons with disabilities.
(Ord. 4808, 7-18-18)
This Circulation Plan is applicable to transportation corridors
within the Urban Development Boundary as defined by the Grand Junction
Comprehensive Plan Future Land Use Map. Minor exceptions occur where
a particular corridor falls both within and outside of the Urban Development
Boundary and whereby consistency of standards along the length of
the corridor would be beneficial to the traveling public.
(Ord. 4808, 7-18-18)
The Circulation Plan establishes a comprehensive approach to transportation planning through the following four sections (Plan Elements). Conceptual and corridor maps have been created to aid decision makers and City and County staff to improve the transportation systems. See GJMC §
31.08.150, Appendix A – Maps, for full-page maps.
