Matt Delich '•' J'U DATES october 12, 2000 3ML7ECT; Hearthfire trip distribution (rile: 9643MEM7) In the "Hearthfire FUo Site Access study," July 1996, 1 used the trip distribution provided in Appendix A. it shows that over half (50-60%) of the site generated traffic is expected to utilixo nouglas Road to get to/from the SRI intersection. It is my understanding that due to this traffic, this developer was required to make certain improvements to Douglas Road frooa the site aecews to 5H1. certain property owners along Douglas Road have not cooperated with this developer in granting easements no that the prescribed improvements could be made. Since a portion of the Hearthfire PUD has been built and occupied, traffic counts of home based trips were obtained in order to Thesest tho trafficrip ountstribution used LO are shown in Figure I. 1 cited ry was taken Study'cess ken to only count those vehicles that appeared to be home based trip . Since there are a number of homes under construction, there is a significant amount of construction related traffic. This traffic was easily discernible. While this traffic was counted, it is not in Figure 1. In addition to determining the on Douglas Road, the traffic to/from the west was furthar distinguished by Douglas Road and CR13. it was determined that, during the peak hours on October 11, 2000, the distribution was 459 to/from the east on Douglas Road, 42% to/from the west on Douglas Road, and 13: to/Prom the southwest on CR13. From this information, it would appear that the route of choice is to/from the east. This may be due to the ease Of access to T-25 and the improvement to the south on cRll, CR50E, and ME. The Hearthfire PUD will build a connection through the Richards Take development to the east when approximately 92 building permits are drawn. This connection will provide a shorter route to CRII, which will likely increase the number of vehicles going to the cast. ConvesaaAy, this will likely reduce the number of vehicles taking Douglas Road to SH1. This information may provide enough data to the City of Fort Collins to change the route along which improvements should be made to satisfy the requirements of the City.
