I. INTRODUCTION
This transportation impact study (TIS) addresses the capacity, geometric, and
control requirements for the proposed Landmark Apartments Expansion development.
The proposed Landmark Apartments Expansion development is located in the southeast
quadrant of the Shields/Prospect intersection in Fort Collins, Colorado.
During the course of the analysis, numerous contacts were made with the
owner/developer (Summit Management Services, Inc.), the project engineering consultant
(Northstar Design), the project planning consultant (The Neenan Company), Fort Collins
Traffic Engineering, and Fort Collins Transportation Planning. The Transportation Impact
Study Base Assumptions form and related documents are provided in Appendix A. This
study generally conforms to the format set forth in the Fort Collins TIS Guidelines in the
“Larimer County Urban Area Street Standards” (LCUASS). A scoping discussion was held
with the Fort Collins Traffic Engineering staff. Due to the location and neighborhood
issues, a full transportation impact study was requested. The study involved the following
steps:
- Collect physical, traffic, and development data;
- Perform trip generation, trip distribution, and trip assignment;
- Determine peak hour traffic volumes;
- Conduct capacity and operational level of service analyses on key intersections;
- Analyze signal warrants;
- Conduct level of service evaluation of pedestrian, bicycle, and transit modes of
transportation

II. EXISTING CONDITIONS
The location of Landmark Apartments Expansion is shown in Figure 1. It is
important that a thorough understanding of the existing conditions be presented.
Land Use
Land uses in the area are primarily commercial or residential. There are
residential uses to the east, north, and south of the site. There are commercial uses to
the west of the site. Colorado State University is north of the site. The center of Fort
Collins lies to the northeast of the proposed Landmark Apartments Expansion site.
Streets
The primary streets near the Landmark Apartments Expansion site are Shields
Street, Prospect Road, and Hobbit Street. Figure 2 shows a schematic of the existing
geometry at the key intersections.
Shields Street is west of the proposed Landmark Apartments Expansion site. It
is a north-south street classified as a four-lane arterial on the Fort Collins Master Street
Plan. Currently, Shields Street has a four-lane cross section. At the Shields/Prospect
intersection, Shields Street has northbound and southbound left-turn lanes, two through
lanes in each direction, and northbound and southbound right-turn lanes. The
Shields/Prospect intersection has signal control. At the Shields/Hobbit intersection,
Shields Street has a southbound left-turn lane and two through lanes in each direction.
The Shields/Hobbit intersection has stop sign control on Hobbit Street. The posted
speed limit on this segment of Shields Street is 35 mph.
Prospect Road is north of the proposed Landmark Apartments Expansion site. It
is an east-west street classified as a four-lane arterial on the Fort Collins Master Street
Plan. Currently, Prospect Road has a four-lane cross section. At the Shields/Prospect
intersection, Prospect Road has dual eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes, two
through lanes in each direction, and an eastbound right-turn lane. The right-turn volume
on the westbound approach at the Shields/Prospect intersection indicates the need for a
right-turn lane. The need for this right-turn lane has been demonstrated in numerous
traffic studies for many years. Building this right-turn lane would likely require
acquisition of at least three properties along Prospect Road, east of Shields Street. The
decision to build this right-turn lane rests with the City of Fort Collins. The posted speed
limit on this segment of Prospect Road is 35 mph.
Hobbit Street is south the Landmark Apartments Expansion site. It is an east-
west street classified as a local street on the Fort Collins Master Street Plan. Currently,
Hobbit Street has a two-lane cross section with parking on both sides of the street.
There is no posted speed limit on this segment of Hobbit Street.

Existing Traffic
Recent peak hour traffic volumes at the Shields/Prospect and Shields/Hobbit
intersections are shown in Figure 3. The counts at the key intersections were obtained
in March 2012. Raw traffic count data is provided in Appendix B. Since the traffic
counts were done on different days, the intersection volumes were averaged
(adjusted/balanced). Figure 4 shows the averaged recent peak hour traffic volumes.
Existing Operation
The Shields/Prospect and Shields/Hobbit intersections were evaluated and the
peak hour operation is displayed in Table 1. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix
C. The key intersections are currently operating acceptably with existing control,
geometry, and signal timing in the morning and afternoon peak hours. The intersections
were evaluated using techniques provided in the 2000 Highway Capacity Manual. A
description of level of service for signalized and unsignalized intersections from the
2000 Highway Capacity Manual and a table showing the Fort Collins Motor Vehicle LOS
Standards (Intersections) are also provided in Appendix C. The Landmark Apartments
Expansion site is in an area termed “mixed-use district.” In areas termed “mixed-use
district,” acceptable operation at signalized intersections during the peak hours is
defined as level of service E or better. At unsignalized intersections, acceptable
operation is considered to be at level of service F for any approach leg for an
arterial/local intersection. In such areas, it is expected that there would be substantial
delays to the minor street movements at unsignalized intersections during the peak
hours. This is considered to be normal and acceptable in urban areas.
Pedestrian Facilities
There are sidewalks along Shields Street, Hobbit Street, and Prospect Road
within the pedestrian influence area. Many of the street cross section elements were
built prior to the current standards. Therefore, some of the sidewalks may be
considered to be substandard. The Spring Creek Trail crosses Shields Street south of
West Stuart Street.
Bicycle Facilities
There are bicycle lanes along Shields Street and along Prospect Road, west of
Shields Street, within the study area. Prospect Road, east of Shields Street, is
constrained, in that on-street bike lanes do not exist due to the width of Prospect Road.
The Spring Creek Trail crosses Shields Street south of West Stuart Street.

III. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT
Landmark Apartments Expansion is a residential apartment development with 84
dwelling units. Figure 5 shows a site plan of Landmark Apartments Expansion. The
existing Landmark Apartments and the proposed expansion are marketed to Colorado
State University students. The short range analysis (Year 2017) includes development
of Landmark Apartments Expansion and an appropriate increase in background traffic
due to normal growth and other potential developments in the area. The long range
analysis year is considered to be 2035. The site plan shows that Landmark Apartments
Expansion will use existing Hobbit Street to access Shields Street. There will be a
pedestrian connection to the sidewalk on Prospect Road.
Trip Generation
Trip generation is important in considering the impact of a development such as this
upon the existing and proposed street system. A compilation of trip generation information
contain in Trip Generation, 9th Edition, ITE was used to estimate the trips that would be
generated by the proposed/expected uses at Landmark Apartments Expansion site. Each
apartment will have two beds. Therefore, a person was used as the trip generation
variable. A trip is defined as a one-way vehicle movement from origin to destination.
Table 2 shows the expected trip generation on a daily and peak hour basis. The trip
generation of Landmark Apartments Expansion development resulted in 518 daily trip
ends, 55 morning peak hour trip ends, and 68 afternoon peak hour trip ends. Due to its
proximity to Colorado State University, it was agreed that a 30 percent alternative modes
adjustment to the calculated trip generation is appropriate. With the alternative modes
adjustment, the motor vehicle trip generation is estimated to be: 362 daily trip ends, 39
morning peak hour trip ends, and 48 afternoon peak hour trip ends.

Trip Distribution
Trip distribution for Landmark Apartments Expansion was based on existing/
future travel patterns, land uses in the area, consideration of trip attractions in Fort
Collins, and engineering judgment. Figure 6 shows the trip distribution for the short
range (2017) and long range (2035) analysis futures. The trip distribution was agreed to
by City of Fort Collins staff in the scoping discussions.

Background Traffic Projections
Figures 7 and 8 show the respective short range (2017) and long range (2035)
background traffic projections. Background traffic projections for the short and long
range future horizons were obtained by reviewing the North Front Range Regional
Transportation Plan and various traffic studies prepared for this area of Fort Collins.
The primary other traffic study in this area is The Grove student housing development
southeast of the Landmark Apartments Expansion site. Based upon these sources, it
was determined that traffic volumes on Shields Street and Prospect Road would
increase by approximately 1.0% per year in the short range future and by approximately
1.25% per year in the long range future. Traffic from The Grove was added to the short
range (2017) background traffic volumes. The parcel east of Shields Street, between
Hobbit Street and West Stuart Street (extended), is designated as a neighborhood
commercial center. The long range (2035) background traffic includes commercial and
residential land uses on this parcel. The background traffic growth was agreed to by
City of Fort Collins staff in the scoping discussions.
Trip Assignment
Trip assignment is how the generated and distributed trips are expected to be
loaded on the street system. The assigned trips are the resultant of the trip distribution
process. Figure 9 shows the site generated peak hour traffic assignment. Figures 10 and
11 show the respective short range (2017) and long range (2035) total (site plus
background) peak hour traffic assignment.
Signal Warrants
As a matter of policy, traffic signals are not installed at any location unless warrants
are met according to the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices. The
Shields/Prospect is currently signalized. The Shields/Hobbit stop sign controlled
intersection will not meet signal warrants in the future.
Operation Analysis
Operation analyses were performed at the Shields/Prospect and Shields/Hobbit
intersections. The operation analyses were conducted for the short range and long range
futures, reflecting year 2017 and 2035 conditions, respectively. The long range analyses
are provided for informational purposes.
Using the traffic volumes shown in Figure 7, the key intersections operate in the
short range (2017) background traffic future, with the existing geometry, as indicated in
Table 3. Calculation forms for these analyses are provided in Appendix D. It is important
to note that due to the increased traffic volumes, the signal timing in the morning and

afternoon peak hours remained at a 110 second cycle and a 120 second cycle,
respectively, but the time allocated to each phase had to be adjusted to achieve
acceptable level of service. The adjustment consisted of giving more green time to the
east-west approaches. The key intersections will operate acceptably.
Using the traffic volumes shown in Figure 8, the key intersections operate in the
long range (2035) background traffic future as indicated in Table 4. Calculation forms for
these analyses are provided in Appendix E. The operation analyses assume that the
westbound right-turn lane will exist. The Shields/Prospect intersection will not achieve
level of service E or better for all movements during the afternoon peak hour. The
eastbound left-turn movements will operate at level of service F. The Shields/Hobbit
intersection will operate acceptably.
Using the traffic volumes shown in Figure 10, the key intersections operate in the
short range (2017) total traffic future, with the existing geometry, as indicated in Table 5.
Calculation forms for these analyses are provided in Appendix F. As with the background
operation, due to the increased traffic volumes, the signal timing in the morning and
afternoon peak hours remained at a 110 second cycle and a 120 second cycle,
respectively, but the time allocated to each phase had to be adjusted to achieve
acceptable level of service. The key intersections will operate acceptably.
Using the traffic volumes shown in Figure 11, the key intersections operate in the
long range (2035) total traffic future as indicated in Table 7. Calculation forms for these
analyses are provided in Appendix G. The operation analyses assume that the
westbound right-turn lane will exist. The Shields/Prospect intersection will not achieve
level of service E or better for all movements during the afternoon peak hour. The
eastbound left-turn movements will operate at level of service F. The Shields/Hobbit
intersection will operate acceptably.
Geometry
Figure 12 shows a schematic of the required short range (2017) geometry. This is
the existing geometry at the Shields/Prospect and Shields/Hobbit intersections. At the
Shields/Prospect intersection, a westbound right-turn lane is required with the current
traffic.
Figure 13 shows a schematic of the long range (2035) geometry. The only
difference between the short range (2017) and long range (2035) geometry is the addition
of a westbound right-turn lane at the Shields/Prospect intersection. The decision to build
this right-turn lane rests with the City. This site will contribute no traffic to this movement.
Pedestrian Level of Service
Appendix H shows a map of the area that is within 1320 feet of the Landmark
Apartments Expansion site. There will be five pedestrian destinations within 1320 feet
of Landmark Apartments Expansion site. These are: 1) the residential area to the east

3) the residential area to the northwest of the site, 4) the commercial area to the west of
the site, and 5) the commercial area to the southwest of the site. This site is in an area
type termed “other.” As mentioned earlier, many of the street cross section elements
were built prior to the current standards. Therefore, some of the sidewalks may be
considered to be substandard. Acceptable pedestrian level of service will not be
achieved for all pedestrian destinations. The Pedestrian LOS Worksheet is provided in
Appendix H. The minimum level of service for “other” is C for all areas of evaluation.
The Spring Creek Trail crosses Shields Street south of West Stuart Street.
Bicycle Level of Service
Appendix H shows a map of the area that is within 1320 feet of Landmark
Apartments Expansion development. There will be three bicycle destinations within
1320 feet of Landmark Apartments Expansion development. These are: 1) the
commercial area to the west of the site, 2) the commercial area to the southwest of the
site, and 3) Colorado State University to the north of the site. The Bicycle LOS
Worksheet is provided in Appendix H. The base level of service is C and is B for each
of the bicycle destinations. This site is connected to Shields Street. Therefore, it is
concluded that level of service B can be achieved. The Spring Creek Trail crosses
Shields Street south of West Stuart Street.
Transit Level of Service
This area of Fort Collins is served by Transfort Routes 19, 2, and 3. Route 19
operates along Shields Street, Route 2 operates, westbound, along Prospect Road, and
Route 3 operates eastbound on Prospect Road, west of Shields Street, and northbound
on Shields Street, north of Prospect Road.

IV. CONCLUSIONS
This study assessed the impacts of Landmark Apartments Expansion on the street
system in the vicinity of the proposed development in the short range (2017) and long
range (2035) future. As a result of this analysis, the following is concluded:
- The development of Landmark Apartments Expansion is feasible from a traffic
engineering standpoint. At full development, Landmark Apartments Expansion will
generate approximately 362 daily trip ends, 39 morning peak hour trip ends, and 48
afternoon peak hour trip ends.
- All intersections operate acceptably with the existing traffic and geometry. Current
traffic volumes indicate that a westbound auxiliary right-turn lane is required at the
Shields/Prospect intersection. This additional geometry will improve the operation
at these intersections.
- The Shields/Prospect intersection is currently signalized. The Shields/Hobbit stop
sign controlled intersection will not have traffic signals in the future.
- In the short range (2017) future, given development of Landmark Apartments
Expansion and an increase in background traffic, the key intersections will operate
acceptably.
- In the long range (2035) future, given development of Landmark Apartments
Expansion and an increase in background traffic, the Shields/Prospect intersection
will not achieve level of service E or better for all movements during the afternoon
peak hour. The Shields/Hobbit intersection will operate acceptably.
- The short range (2017) geometry is shown in Figure 12. This is the current
geometry.
- The long range (2035) geometry is shown in Figure 13. At the Shields/Prospect
intersection, a westbound right-turn lane is required with the current traffic. The
decision to build this right-turn lane rests with the City.
- Acceptable level of service is achieved for bicycle and transit modes based upon
the measures in the multi-modal transportation guidelines and the Fort Collins
Pedestrian Plan. Many of the street cross section elements were built prior to
the current standards.
