INTRODUCTION This transportation impact study (TIS) addresses the capacity, geometric, and control requirements for the proposed Harmony Technology Park (HTP) Retail. The proposed HTP Retail site is located in the southwest quadrant of the Harmony/Lady Moon- HP East intersection in Fort Collins, Colorado. During the course of the analysis, numerous contacts were made with the developer’s representative (Brinkman Partners Development), the project planning consultant (TB Group), the project engineering consultant (Northern Engineering), and Fort Collins Traffic Engineering. 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). 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 DELICH HTP Retail TIS, September 2015 ASSOCIATES Page 2 II. EXISTING CONDITIONS The location of the HTP Retail site 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, industrial, and residential. There are residential uses to the south of the site. There are commercial and industrial uses to the north, south, and west of the site. The center of Fort Collins lies to the northwest of the proposed HTP Retail site. Streets The primary streets near the HTP Retail site are Harmony Road, Ziegler Road, and Lady Moon Drive. Figure 2 shows a schematic of the existing geometry at the key intersections. Harmony Road is to the north of (adjacent to) the HTP Retail site. It is an east- west street designated as a six-lane arterial street on the Fort Collins Master Street Plan. Currently, it has a six-lane cross section with an existing speed limit of 55 mph in this area. At the Harmony/Ziegler intersection, Harmony Road has eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes, three through lanes in each direction, and a westbound right- turn lane. At the Harmony/Lady Moon intersection, Harmony Road has eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes, three through lanes in each direction, and eastbound and westbound right-turn lanes. The Harmony/Ziegler and Harmony/Lady Moon intersections have signal control. At the Harmony/HP West intersection, Harmony Road has an eastbound left-turn lane and three through lanes in each direction. The Harmony/HP West intersection has stop sign control on the HP West Access. Ziegler Road is to the west of the HTP Retail site. It is a north-south street designated as a four-lane arterial street north of Rock Creek Drive, and designated as a two-lane arterial street south of Rock Creek Drive on the Fort Collins Master Street Plan. Currently, Ziegler has a four-lane cross section and an existing speed of 40 mph. At the Harmony/Ziegler intersection, Ziegler Road has dual northbound and southbound left-turn lanes, two through lanes in each direction, and a southbound right-turn lane. Lady Moon Drive is a north-south street designated as a collector street south of Harmony Road on the Fort Collins Master Street Plan. Currently, Lady Moon Drive has a two-lane cross section, with a center continuous two-way left-turn lane, south of the Banner Medical Campus driveway. The north leg of the Harmony/Lady Moon intersection serves the Hewlett-Packard campus. At the Harmony/Lady Moon intersection, Lady Moon Drive has northbound and southbound left-turn lanes, a northbound through lane, a southbound combined through/right-turn lane, and a northbound right-turn lane. The existing posted speed is 30 mph on Lady Moon Drive.

The counts at the Harmony/Ziegler and Harmony/Lady Moon-HP East intersections were obtained by the City of Fort Collins in April and May 2013, respectively. The turning movement counts at the Harmony/HP West intersection were obtained in February 2015. Raw traffic count data is provided in Appendix B. Since there are no accesses or intersections between Lady Moon Drive and the HP West Access, the link volumes from the Harmony/Lady Moon intersection were used to determine the through volumes at the Harmony/HP West intersections. The traffic volumes were averaged/balanced between the key intersections, since the recent counts were performed on different days. The balanced recent peak hour traffic is shown in Figure 4. Existing Operation The Harmony/Ziegler, Harmony/HP West, and Harmony/Lady Moon-HP East 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, except for the Harmony/Ziegler and Harmony/HP West intersections during the afternoon peak hour. With a small adjustment in the signal timing, the Harmony/Ziegler intersection can achieve acceptable operation. It is important to note that eastbound and northbound right-turn deceleration lanes are warranted with the existing traffic volumes. At the Harmony/HP West intersection, some movements (EB LT and SB LT) are shown to experience calculated delays commensurate with LOS F. During traffic counting, the actual observed delays for these movements averaged ≤20 seconds per vehicle. The calculated delays do not reflect the substantial gaps created by the Harmony/Lady Moon signal. Delays commensurate with level of service F are normal at stop sign controlled intersections along arterial streets in an urban area. The intersections were evaluated using techniques provided in the 2010 Highway Capacity Manual. A description of level of service for signalized and unsignalized intersections from the 2010 Highway Capacity Manual and a table showing the Fort Collins Motor Vehicle LOS Standards (Intersections) are also provided in Appendix C. The HTP Retail site is in an area termed “employment district,” which puts it in the category of “other” for analysis purposes. In areas termed “other,” acceptable operation at signalized intersections during the peak hours is defined as level of service D or better for the overall intersection, and level of service E or better for any leg or movement. At unsignalized intersections, acceptable operation during the peak hours is defined as level of service E or better for any approach leg for an arterial/collector and level of service C or better for any approach leg for a local and collector/local intersection.

Bicycle Facilities There are bicycle lanes along Harmony Road, Ziegler Road, and Lady Moon Drive within the study area. Transit Facilities Currently, this area of Fort Collins is served by Transfort Route 16. Route 16 operates along Harmony Road, Ziegler Road, Rock Creek Drive, and Lady Moon Drive. DELICH HTP Retail TIS, September 2015 ASSOCIATES Page 10 III. PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT The proposed HTP Retail development will include retail, restaurant, hotel, and general office uses. Figure 5 shows a conceptual site plan of the HTP Retail site. The short range analysis (Year 2020) includes development of the HTP Retail site 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 there will be two full-movement accesses to/from future Timberwood Drive and a right-in/right-out access to/from Lady Moon Drive. 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 contained in Trip Generation, 9 th Edition, ITE was used to estimate the trips that would be generated by the proposed/expected uses at the HTP Retail site. A trip is defined as a one-way vehicle movement from origin to destination. Table 2 shows the expected trip generation for the HTP Retail site on a daily and peak hour basis. The trip generation for full development of the HTP Retail site resulted in 4308 daily trip ends, 360 morning peak hour trip ends, and 361 afternoon peak hour trip ends. Trip Distribution Trip distribution for the HTP Retail site was based on existing/future travel patterns, land uses in the area, consideration of trip attractions/productions in Fort Collins, and engineering judgment. Figure 6 shows the trip distribution for the short range (2020) and long range (2035) analysis futures. The trip distribution 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. Figures 7 and 8 show the short range (2020) and long range (2035) full development site generated peak hour traffic assignment, respectively. Background Traffic Projections Figures 9 and 10 show the respective short range (2020) and long range (2035) background traffic projections. The short range (2020) background traffic was developed by generally increasing the existing traffic counts by two percent per year. The background traffic growth was agreed to by City of Fort Collins staff in the scoping SCALE: 1"=100' SITE PLAN Figure 5 DELICH ASSOCIATES HTP Retail TIS, September 2015 Page 11 Bldg. A Bldg.

With the construction of Technology Parkway, a portion of the site traffic to/from the Intel facility will use the Harmony/Technology intersection. Redistribution of Intel traffic was based upon the number of parking spaces in the various lots around the site. In the long range (2035) future, existing traffic volumes were factored by one percent per year and the entire Harmony Tech Park was assumed to be built and occupied. For Harmony Road, the existing volumes east of Lady Moon Drive were factored by one percent per year to get the long range (2035) total traffic (site plus background). The site traffic was then backed out of the volumes to get the long range (2035) background peak hour traffic at the intersections along Harmony Road. Total Traffic Forecasts Figures 11 and 12 show the respective short range (2020) 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 Harmony/ Ziegler and Harmony/Lady Moon-HP East intersections are currently signalized. In the short range (2020) future at the Harmony/Technology intersection, it is important to determine the level of development that will trigger the installation of the signal. The short range (2020) total peak hour signal warrant for the Harmony/Technology intersection is provided in Appendix D. The threshold volume for warranting a signal is 75 vehicles per hour (vph). With the Intel traffic redistribution, the number of northbound left-turning vehicles at the Harmony/Technology intersection would be 2 in the morning peak hour and 36 in the afternoon peak hour. Therefore, a total of 73 morning peak hour and 39 afternoon peak hour northbound left-turning vehicles would need to be produced by the HTP Retail development in order to warrant a signal at the Harmony/Technology intersection. It is difficult to determine a flat level of development of the HTP Retail site to warrant the signal since some of the land uses have passby traffic rates applied to them. However, based upon the short range (2020) site generated peak hour traffic, generally development of approximately 45 percent of the HTP Retail site will warrant the signal at the Harmony/Technology-HP West intersection. For example, construction of Buildings A, B, C, and the Hotel would warrant the signal; or construction of Building D and the Hotel (or almost any other single building) would warrant the signal. It is important to note that it is likely that more of the site traffic from HP/Avago will utilize the Harmony/Technology-HP West intersection when it is signalized. This assumed redistribution of HP/Avago traffic is reflected in the short range (2020) peak hour traffic forecasts.

Figure 14 shows a schematic of the long range (2035) geometry. The geometry at the Harmony/Ziegler intersection in the long range future reflects the maximum practical geometry. Operation Analysis Operation analyses were performed at the Harmony/Ziegler, Harmony/Technology- HP West, Harmony/Lady Moon-HP East, Lady Moon/Timberwood, Technology/ Timberwood, and the Site Access intersections. The operations analyses were conducted for the short range and long range futures, reflecting year 2020 and 2035 conditions, respectively. The long range (2035) analyses are provided for informational purposes. Using the traffic volumes shown in Figure 9, the key intersections operate in the short range (2020) background traffic future as indicated in Table 3. Calculation forms for these analyses are provided in Appendix E. The key intersections will operate acceptably during the peak hours, except for the Harmony/Ziegler intersection during the afternoon peak hour. As mentioned with the current traffic volumes and under the Geometry section, eastbound and northbound right-turn deceleration/storage lanes are warranted with the existing traffic volumes. Providing these right-turn lanes will improve the operation/reduce the delay of the LOS F movements, with adjustments to the signal timing. Using the traffic volumes shown in Figure 10, 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 F. The analysis assumed right-turn lanes on all legs of the Harmony/Ziegler intersection. The Harmony/Ziegler intersection will not achieve level of service E or better for all movements or achieve level of service D or better overall during both peak hours with single eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes. The intersection was also analyzed with dual eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes. This helped to mitigate most of the unacceptable levels of service. Selected traffic movements at the Harmony/Ziegler intersection are very high. Unless some traffic seeks alternative routes, there is little that can be practically done to mitigate the calculated delay. The Lady Moon/Timberwood-Banner intersection will not achieve level of service E or better for the eastbound approach during the afternoon peak hour. The other key intersections will operate acceptably.

with recommended control, as indicated in Table 5. Calculation forms for these analyses are provided in Appendix G. The key intersections will operate acceptably during the peak hours, except for the Harmony/Ziegler intersection. The southbound left-turn movement will experience delays commensurate with level of service F during the morning peak hour. Many movements, as well as the overall operation of the intersection will operate unacceptably during the afternoon peak hour. As mentioned earlier, eastbound and northbound right-turn deceleration/storage lanes are warranted with the existing traffic volumes. Providing these right-turn lanes will improve the operation/reduce the delay of the LOS F movements, with adjustments to the signal timing. Using the traffic volumes shown in Figure 12, the key intersections operate in the long range (2035) total traffic future as indicated in Table 6. Calculation forms for these analyses are provided in Appendix H. The analysis assumed right-turn lanes on all legs of the Harmony/Ziegler intersection. As with the long range (2035) background traffic, the Harmony/Ziegler intersection will not achieve level of service E or better for all movements or achieve level of service D or better overall during both peak hours with single eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes. The intersection was also analyzed with dual eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes. This helped to mitigate most of the unacceptable levels of service. Selected traffic movements at the Harmony/Ziegler intersection are very high. Unless some traffic seeks alternative routes, there is little that can be practically done to mitigate the calculated delay. The Lady Moon/Timberwood-Banner intersection will not achieve level of service E or better for the eastbound approach during the afternoon peak hour. The other key intersections will operate acceptably. Pedestrian Level of Service Appendix I shows a map of the area that is within 1320 feet of the HTP Retail site. There will be three pedestrian destinations within 1320 feet of the HTP Retail. These are: 1) Avago to the north of the site; 2) the Banner Medical Campus to the east of the site; and 3) Intel. This site is in an area type termed “other.” The level of service determination assumes that future developments will build their streets and adjacent streets in accordance with Fort Collins Standards. This being the case, pedestrian facilities will exist where they currently do not. This is a reasonable assumption. The Pedestrian LOS Worksheet is provided in Appendix I. The minimum level of service for “other” is C for all categories. With the assumed future pedestrian facilities along future streets, the pedestrian level of service will be acceptable. Bicycle Level of Service Based upon Fort Collins bicycle LOS criteria, there are no bicycle destinations within 1320 feet of the HTP Retail.

CONCLUSIONS This study assessed the impacts of the HTP Retail site on the street system in the vicinity of the proposed development in the short range (2020) and long range (2035) future. As a result of this analysis, the following is concluded: - The development of HTP Retail is feasible from a traffic engineering standpoint. The trip generation for the HTP Retail development resulted in 4308 daily trip ends, 360 morning peak hour trip ends, and 361 afternoon peak hour trip ends. - The key intersections operate acceptably with the existing traffic and geometry, with timing adjustments at the Harmony/Ziegler intersection. - The Harmony/Ziegler and Harmony/Lady Moon-HP East intersections are currently signalized. A signal will be warranted at the Harmony/Technology-HP West intersection. It is difficult to determine a flat level of development of the HTP Retail site to warrant the signal since some of the land uses have passby traffic rates applied to them. However, based upon the short range (2020) site generated peak hour traffic, generally development of approximately 45 percent of the HTP Retail site will warrant the signal at the Harmony/Technology-HP West intersection. For example, construction of Buildings A, B, C, and the Hotel would warrant the signal; or construction of Building D and the Hotel (or almost any other single building) would warrant the signal. It is important to note that it is likely that more of the site traffic from HP/Avago will utilize the Harmony/Technology-HP West intersection when it is signalized. - In the short range (2020) future, given development of the HTP Retail site and an increase in background traffic, the key intersections will operate acceptably, except for the Harmony/Ziegler intersection during the afternoon peak hour. Eastbound and northbound right-turn deceleration/storage lanes are warranted with the existing traffic volumes. Providing these right-turn lanes will improve the operation/reduce the delay of the LOS F movements, with adjustments to the signal timing. Selected traffic movements at the Harmony/Ziegler intersection are very high. Unless some traffic seeks alternative routes, there is little that can be practically done to mitigate the calculated delay. - In the long range (2035) future, given development of the HTP Retail site and an increase in background traffic, the Harmony/Ziegler intersection will not achieve level of service E or better for all movements or achieve level of service D or better overall during both peak hours with single eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes. The intersection was also analyzed with dual eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes. This helped to mitigate most of the unacceptable levels of service. Selected traffic movements at the Harmony/Ziegler intersection are very high. Unless some traffic seeks alternative routes, there is little that can be practically done to mitigate the calculated delay. The Lady Moon/Timberwood-Banner intersection will not achieve level of service E or better for the eastbound approach during the afternoon peak hour. The other key intersections will operate acceptably. DELICH HTP Retail TIS, September 2015 ASSOCIATES Page 38 - The short range (2020) geometry is shown in Figure 13. As mentioned earlier, eastbound and northbound right-turn deceleration/storage lanes are warranted with the existing traffic volumes at the Harmony/Ziegler intersection. According to Figure 8-4, LCUASS, a right-turn deceleration lane is required on an arterial street with three through-lanes in each direction when the right-turn volume exceeds 200 vph. - The long range (2035) geometry is shown in Figure 14. This is the maximum practical geometry at the key intersections. - Acceptable level of service is achieved for pedestrian, bicycle, and transit modes based upon the measures in the multi-modal transportation guidelines and future improvements to the street system in the area. 40/35 705/495 10/5 RT Access Timberwood 120/45 415/355 180/100 50/150 30/15 25/55 65/25 275/475 45/25 30/80 10/35 35/55 235/530 50/5 105/275 1680/2365 360/210 5/100 5/45 5/160 120/10 180/15 1905/2095 380/275 Intel Banner AM/PM Rounded to Nearest 5 Vehicles Access A Access B 5/20 NOM 5/25 55/85 NOM 25/35 Timberwood NOM 5/70 10/100 25/35 NOM 25/40 160/80 150/70 20/5 25/5 40/145 35/30 45/35 70/80 65/15 100/20 70/75 25/15 Technology 120/128 47/49 28/32 39/38 28/40 60/57 44/33 34/23 39/38 28/40 31/46 44/33 28/32 Access A Access B Timberwood Intel Banner AM/PM 39/9 104/90 75/89 NOM 3/46 NOM Technology 254/264 392/307 83/105 74/165 242/466 617/698 164/133 1198/1677 170/255 531/853 1478/1465 120/137 680/470 Timberwood 90/20 410/350 180/100 10/90 30/15 15/45 40/5 275/475 45/25 30/80 10/35 35/55 230/520 50/5 70/225 1695/2390 350/200 5/100 5/45 5/160 120/10 180/15 1920/2120 325/225 Intel Banner AM/PM Rounded to Nearest 5 Vehicles Access B 5/40 NOM 0/5 95/20 105/35 20/5 Access A 5/20 NOM 5/25 Timberwood 25/5 15/105 5/0 40/40 100/20 45/50 65/15 5/70 10/100 Technology 86/202 71/40 208/124 42/24 6/12 28/52 87/77 13/9 23/19 52/57 22/25 -15/-25 54/50 -14/-26 12/9 6/8 35/50 26/20 28/26 7/6 41/58 10/12 Technology 7/8 35/50 44/35 29/26 11/10 42/58 17/20
