Description:

As part of its General Management Plan (GMP) process, Fire Island National Seashore (FIIS) seeks to develop a long-term management model to protect Fire Island’s resources, while facilitating a safe, rewarding, and relevant experience for the public. As part of this management model, the Seashore is seeking the best and most appropriate methods for moving people, goods, and services to, from, and along Fire Island. The transportation challenge addressed by this report is to balance the many kinds of vehicle use on the Island with the Seashore’s resource protection mission and the desire of residents and visitors to preserve the Island’s “roadless” nature. The existing conditions section characterize the diverse transportation systems currently in use on Fire Island, many of which have evolved to function in line with the island's roadless character. The opportunities section focuses on vehicle use reduction and enhanced use of water transportation, as well as ideas aimed at general improvement of the efficiency and function of the whole transportation system on and around Fire Island.
