<br /> <br />Methodology <br /> <br />The City of Pleasanton has developed a comprehensive traffic forecasting model <br />(TRANS CAD) including a post-processing procedure which utilizes the traffic operations <br />software (Synchro) to evaluate peak hour intersection levels of service. The City's model <br />was used for this study. <br /> <br />Model Assumptions <br /> <br />The model includes all of the existing development within the City and the region. In <br />addition to the existing land development, the City has included the additional approved <br />developments that have not yet been built or occupied. <br /> <br />This analysis required the use to two transportation planning and operational tools. The <br />City's TRANSCAD travel demand model forecasts roadway and intersection turning <br />movement volumes. The two graphics below depict the increase in volume in the AM <br />and I'M peak periods created by the proposed development. A total of 23 AM trips and <br />24 PM trips were generated and distributed using the TRANSCAD travcl demand model. <br />
