4.0 Study Goals and ObjectivesThe primary objectives of the Hidden Waters Parkway North Study as defined by theproject scope are to: (1) clearly define and assess the project study area for strategicissues identification; (2) develop and evaluate candidate alignments within the corridorstudy area; (3) recommend a preferred alignment; and (4) subsequently define thecharacteristics of the preferred alignment in greater detail. This study is the first step inthe development process and is meant to aid the governing bodies in protecting acontinuous corridor in this area.In addition to these objectives, several other goals/objectives were discussed by projectstakeholders during the Project Scoping Workshop (see Appendix A for the ProjectScoping Workshop Report). Some of the additional topics that were discussed include:Ensure that connectivity is established throughout the corridor.Refer to the Hassayampa Framework Study to identify key east-west roadwayconnections.Maintain consistency with ongoing and existing corridor studies.Consider the proposed parkway interchange locations of the ongoing NorthernParkway, McDowell Parkway, and I-11 corridor studies.Consider the approved master plan circulation elements of proposed developments.Verify that the proposed master plan parkway alignments meet the intent of the MAGframework study.Review existing documentation/databases to identify any potential environmentalfatal flaws. Consider important wildlife linkage zones when developing parkwayalignment alternatives.Consider accessibility to, and avoid creating undevelopable remnant parcels onASLD land.Consider alternatives that minimize roadway development costs.Limit negative impacts to the Whispering Ranch community. Consider the potentialimpacts of parcel splits when developing alternatives.Be sensitive to the Toyota Technical Testing Center’s request for privacy whendeveloping potential parkway alternatives.Document the existing corridor characteristics to identify opportunities andconstraints that may affect roadway alignments. Identify and address any planninglevel issues prior to the initiation of project programming and engineering design.Develop a recommend implementation plan.Hidden WatersFinal Work PlanCorridor Feasibility Study April, 2011Maricopa County Department of Transportation 7 EPS Job No. 10-092
5.0 Study Process and ApproachThe Hidden Waters Parkway North Study will be divided into two phases (see figure 5-1). Phase I is the planning portion of the study. During this phase, technicalmemoranda will be prepared that address parkway corridor features includingenvironmental and drainage overviews.During the second phase of the study, candidate parkway alternatives will be developedbased upon the findings of Phase I. These alternatives will be objectively evaluated toselect a recommended alignment for further refinement. Preliminary design drawingswill be generated to better evaluate the right-of-way and to identify probable drainagefacilities. Phase II will also include a recommended implementation plan for theproposed parkway improvementsFigure 5-1 Study processHidden WatersFinal Work PlanCorridor Feasibility Study April, 2011Maricopa County Department of Transportation 8 EPS Job No. 10-092
