traffic impacts of the proposed development on the surrounding roadway system. This
report summarizes the following analysis procedures which were utilized in the
evaluation:
• A review and analysis of present roadway and traffic conditions in the
vicinity of the site and a review of planned and proposed roadway
improvements in the general vicinity.
i A determination of the average weekday and peak -hour vehicle -trip
generation for the proposed development.
• An analysis of the estimated directional distribution of site -generated
traffic and an assignment of that traffic to the adjacent street
network.
• ' A determination of the future traffic volumes in the vicinity of the site.
• An evaluation of the impacts of site -generated traffic expressed in
terms of the developments traffic as an increment of total projected
traffic on the surrounding roadway system and the resulting levels of
service on the adjacent major intersections.
• A determination of appropriate roadway improvements which will
ensure optimum traffic operation for traffic entering and exiting the
' site.
