<br /> <br />EXHIBIT A <br />Description of SMR/SD Improvements <br />1. Restripe one of the through lanes on westbound Stoneridge Drive to create <br />an optional through and right-turn lane. The curb return on the northeast corner should <br />be modified to facilitate this maneuver. This will require right-of--way acquisition. The <br />purpose of this improvement is to shorten the queue for westbound traffic turning right <br />into the Stoneridge Mall area and thereby reduce the amount of green time required. The <br />westbound right turn is a critical movement during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. It is <br />expected that right turning vehicles will dominate this lane. The need for one additional <br />westbound lane was evaluated and determined to be unnecessary based on no change in <br />the volume-to-capacity ratio. <br />2. Restripe the southbound Stoneridge Mall Road right-turn lane to provide an <br />optional right-turn and left-turn lane at this "T" intersection. This will spread the critical <br />southbound left turn movement over three lanes instead of two lanes thereby reducing the <br />amount of green time necessary to clear the queue. In addition, there is a need to retrofit <br />the signal controller to include an emergency vehicle preemption capability since a City <br />of Pleasanton Fire Station is located nearby. <br />
