Background traffic volume forecasts for the short range (2005) future were obtained by reviewing traffic studies for other developments in this area. It includes full development of Caribou Apartments, as well as a normal increase in traffic. Table 3 shows the short range (2005) background peak hour operation at the Timberline/RT Access intersection. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix C. This intersection will operate acceptably with existing control and geometry. Figure 7 shows the short range (2005) total peak hour traffic at the Timberline/RT Access intersection. Table 4 shows the short range (2005) total peak hour operation at the Timberline/RT Access intersection. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix D. This intersection will operate acceptably during the peak hours. Figure 8 shows the short range (2005) geometry at the Timberline/RT Access intersection, which is the existing geometry. The Carriage Auto Service site is the area within which the City requires pedestrian and bicycle level of service evaluations. However, given that this land use is specifically for automobiles, it is reasonable to assume that there will be very little pedestrian or bicycle traffic related to this development proposal. There are existing sidewalks along the Carriage Auto Service frontage. In addition, there are existing bike lanes along Timberline Road. Currently, there is no transit service in this area of Fort Collins. It is concluded that, with the Carriage Auto Service, the future level of service at the Timberline/RT Access intersection will be acceptable. The level of service for pedestrian, bicycle, and transit modes will be acceptable. MEMORANDUM CD LO p,,Do REG/S o eYl��WJ oF�T��c� To: Linda Rigy, ,n Mark Tin CarriageAuto Service O�11 o Byron Collins, Carriage Auto Service U4'�Q 152 �tO Q CD CD City of Fort Collins O O FROM: Matt Delich k S/�PJAL DATE: June 27, 2003 o z �i a LL SUBJECT: Carriage Auto Service transportation analyses J .(File: 0347ME01) T "' N This memorandum addresses the transportation impacts of the proposed Carriage Auto Service. Carriage Auto Service is proposed to Z T be located on the west side of Timberline Road between Horsetooth aRoad and Big Horn Road. The site location is shown in Figure 1. The _ site plan for Carriage Auto Service is shown in Figure 2. There is a ; raised median on Timberline Road between Horsetooth Road and Big Horn w p Road. As proposed, Carriage Auto Service will consist of four auto o_ service bays. The scope of this study was discussed with the Fort r Collins Traffic Engineer. Technically, a transportation impact study N is not required, since this land use will generate less than 50 trip ends in the peak.hour. A brief memorandum was requested. This land use will not generate pedestrian or bicycle trips. There are sidewalks along adjacent streets and bike lanes on Timberline Road and Horsetooth Road. Figure 3 shows recent peak hour counts at the Timberline/RT Access intersection. The count data was obtained in June 2003. Raw traffic data is provided in Appendix A. Table 1 shows the current operation of the Timberline/RT Access intersection. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix B. A description of level of service for signalized and unsignalized intersections from the 2000 Highway WCapacity Manual and a table showing the Fort Collins Motor Vehicle LOS Standards (Intersections) are also provided in Appendix B. The (L z Timberline/RT Access intersection operates acceptably during both the morning and afternoon peak hours. This type of business is open on Z Saturdays. The traffic volume on the adjacent street is less during Saturday peak hour as compared to the weekday afternoon peak Vthe z hour. Therefore, the operation of the subject intersection is J W acceptable on a Saturday. At unsignalized intersections, acceptable W o operation is considered to be at level of service F for any approach Q leg for an arterial/local intersection or a collector/local intersection. Ir O. aa) The Carriage Auto Service is proposed to have four auto service ` a bays with access to Timberline Road. Table 2 shows the trip 5 generation for Carriage Auto Service. Trip Generation, 6`" Edition, W Ca ITE was used as a reference in calculating the trip generation. U Saturday peak hour trip generation will be 28 trip ends. This is not LL a significant increase as compared to the weekday afternoon peak hour F ¢ trip generation. The trip distribution for this site is shown in �. Figure 4. Figure 5 shows the site generated traffic assignment of r Carriage Auto Service.
