Abstract:This project addresses various transportation issues related to Shenandoah National Park, helps to facilitate the participation of Shenandoah National Park in regional traveler information systems, and helps to provide a better understanding of the socioeconomic conditions and trends in the Shenandoah Valley region that may potentially influence current and future visitation. Specific goals of this project included: (1) reviewing existing visitor survey data and other relevant information to determine what specific traveler information services are desired by visitors; (2) facilitating partnerships with Travel Shenandoah, the Virginia Department of Transportation, and other interested stakeholders; (3) determining the characteristics of an appropriate replacement vehicle to serve Rapidan Camp; (4) assessing Skyline Drive scenic overlooks and recommending Alternative Transportation Systems (ATS)-related design, safety, and visitor information improvements; (5) conducting a socioeconomic study of the Shenandoah visitor region to identify trends that will affect visitation to the park; and (6) identifying transportation data for possible future General Management Plan (GMP) updates.
