City of Pleasanton Travel Demand and Synchro Models Introduction The City of Pleasanton has developed a comprehensive traffic forecasting model including a post-processing procedure which utilizes the simulation software program called Synchro to evaluate peak hour intersection levels of service. The City's model was used for this study. Given the unique nature ofthe project, the model required refinements to insure reasonable traffic patterns and resultant traffic turn movement projections at each of the analysis intersections. Model Assumptions The model includes all of the existing development within the City and the region. In addition to the existing land development, the City has approved additional development that has not yet been built or occupied. Approved development will result in an increase of Fl
