FIRSTCARBON LLeetter <br /> SOLUTIONS Proposal <br /> FCS INTERNATIONAL.INC <br /> The intersection peak hour level of service at each study intersection will be calculated using the 2000 <br /> Highway Capacity Manual method using Synchro software. Intersection turning movement forecasting <br /> methods are discussed within each scenario.The impact analysis will be conducted for the following <br /> "with project"scenarios: <br /> = Existing Plus Project—This scenario includes existing volumes obtained from traffic counts and <br /> the existing roadway system configuration plus traffic estimated for the housing element sites.The <br /> roadway system will be the same as Existing Conditions. Under this scenario,the proposed <br /> housing element land uses will be added to the Existing travel demand model, replacing current <br /> uses if applicable,to estimate traffic volume changes at the study intersections.The net volume <br /> changes will be added/subtracted to the existing volumes from Existing Conditions.The roadway <br /> system will be the same as Existing Conditions. <br /> • Existing Plus Approved Projects(EPAP) Plus Project—This scenario includes traffic volumes from <br /> EPAP No Project plus traffic estimated for the proposed project. Like Existing Plus Project,the <br /> proposed housing element land uses will be added to the EPAP travel demand model, replacing <br /> current uses if applicable,to estimate traffic volume changes at the study intersections.The net <br /> volume changes will be added/subtracted to the base forecast from Existing Plus Project.The <br /> roadway system will be the same as Existing Plus Project. <br /> • Existing Plus Approved Conditions Plus Project Plus El Charro Road Extension—Land uses are <br /> consistent with those described in EPAP Plus Project, but this scenario evaluates traffic patterns <br /> with construction of the El Charro Road extension.To determine the effect of the El Charro Road <br /> extension,the model will be run with the roadway extension in place and the resulting changes in <br /> travel patterns will be identified and applied to the forecasts presented in EPAP. <br /> = Far-Term(Cumulative) Project Conditions—Traffic volumes from Far-Term (Cumulative) No <br /> Project plus changes from development of the housing element sites is evaluated under this <br /> scenario. Like Existing Plus Project and EPAP Plus Project,the proposed housing element land uses <br /> will be added to the buildout travel demand model, replacing current or planned uses if <br /> applicable,to estimate traffic volume changes at the study intersections.The net volume changes <br /> will be added/subtracted to the forecasts from Far-Term (Cumulative) No Project. <br /> Peak hour levels of service and 95th percentile vehicle queues will be calculated and documented for up <br /> to 40-intersections for the above scenarios. Mitigation measures will be identified for impacts that <br /> exceed the thresholds established by the City. <br /> Subtask 4.5.4: Documentation <br /> The following documents will be prepared: <br /> • Draft Transportation Impact Assessment(Draft Program EIR Documentation Basis) <br /> = Draft Community Concerns Document(LOS analysis) <br /> • Final Transportation Impact Assessment (Draft Program EIR Documentation Basis) <br /> NORTH AMERICA I EUROPE I AFRICA I AUSTRALIA I ASIA 13 <br /> FIRSTCARBONSOLUTIONS.COM <br />
