South Rim Visitor Transportation Plan Environmental Assessment

Attached is an Environmental Assessment (EA) for the South Rim Visitor Transportation Plan. Grand Canyon National Park in cooperation with the Kaibab National Forest is proposing a transportation plan for Grand Canyon National Park to address the most pressing traffic, parking, and visitor access issues in Grand Canyon village.

The EA evaluates three alternatives for addressing the purpose and need for action and also evaluates taking no action (Alternative A, No Action).

The initiation of this planning effort was included in a March 2006 public scoping letter. Responses to this scoping effort were used during the preparation of the EA.
