street. The link that directly connects to the arterial street was not
included in this analysis, since this segment would have higher volumes
which would be handled by the necessary auxiliary lanes. The peak hour
traffic volumes for the various segments were averaged for the subject
segment of Timberwood Drive. Since Fort Collins classifies streets based
upon daily traffic volumes, calculated peak hour versus daily ratios were
applied to the peak hour traffic forecasts to determine the daily traffic.
The calculated daily traffic for the subject segment of Timberwood,Drive is
expected to be 3500-3800 vehicles per day. This would indicate that it
would be classified as a major collector street.
Peak hour volumes were also forecasted for Snow Mesa Drive between
Harmony Road and Timber Creek Drive. The same type of analysis, described
above, was applied to these forecasts. The calculated daily traffic for
the subject segment of Snow Mesa Drive is expected to be 4800-5000 vehicles
per day. This would indicate that it would be classified as a major
collector street.

This memorandum provides long range traffic forecasts for

(D
build -out of the Poudre Valley Hospital South Campus (PVH South
a

Campus). The purpose of this information is to determine the street
P
Z
w
infrastructure at the key intersections and determine the street
z
classification of Timberwood Drive and Snow Mesa Drive.

Figure 1 shows the year 2025 peak hour traffic forecasts at the
N
key intersections. These forecasts are based upon the land use mix
and trip generation reflected in Table 1. It also assumes that Snow
Mesa Drive would be connected to the neighborhood to the south and
Timberwood Drive would be connected to Corbett Drive to the east.
These key intersections are expected to operate as indicated in Table
2. Calculation forms are provided in Appendix A. A schematic of the
long range geometry at the key intersections is shown in Figure 2.
The lane configuration at these intersections is probably the maximum
that could be expected.
The Fort Collins City Council Policies indicate that roundabout
analyses are required at arterial/arterial and arterial/collector
Uj
intersections. There are/will be two intersections that fit this
definition in the vicinity of the PVH South Campus. These are the
a
z
Timberline/Timberwood and Harmony/Snow Mesa intersections.
ZE
Conversations with staff indicated that it was highly unlikely that a
w
W
roundabout would ever be considered at the Harmony/Snow Mesa
V
z
a
intersection. However, the Timberline/Timberwood intersection would
z
w
be a candidate for a roundabout in the future. The right-of-way is
J
zo
available to convert this intersection to a roundabout. However,
W
this conversion is not likely to occur in the near term future (10
years or so), since new signal equipment has been installed at this
ir
intersection. In any case, this intersection was analyzed as a
-�
w
roundabout using the long range peak hour_ traffic forecasts shown in
Figure 1. As a two-lane roundabout, preliminary analyses indicate
a
cc
that this intersection will operate acceptably in the peak hours.
W
t-
Detailed analyses and design should occur when the City desires to
2

U
actually change the control at this intersection.

Peak hour volumes were forecasted for Timberwood Drive, between

Timberline Road and Snow Mesa Drive. As with all streets, the
volumes fluctuate in a given segment due to access points along the
