Once a District has been created, the Department shall:

(1) Develop transit capital improvement projects with the goal of increasing transit ridership in the District that would result in a greater farebox recovery ratio.

(2) Identify the most significant barriers to more trips via walking and cycling in the District and develop capital improvement projects to overcome those barriers.

(3) Assign Department capital improvement projects within a District the highest weight for multi-modal mobility, flexibility/access, as well as the weight equivalent to projects in Transportation Improvement Districts through the Department's project prioritization process under § 8419 of Title 29.

(4) Establish an engineering design goal of free flowing eighty-fifth percentile motor vehicle traffic speeds of 25 miles per hour or less for all streets and roads that are not limited access in the District.

(5) Refrain from developing any projects that expand road capacity in the District unless the Department can demonstrate that such projects will have no negative effect on transit access, pedestrian safety, or on the percentage of trips that can be made by bicycle under low traffic stress conditions.
