BERNARD K. U, EE, TE, PTOE Principal -in -Charge Traffic and Parking Analysis for a Senior Day Care Center— Montebello, CA Mr. Li served as Project Manager for the traffic and parking analysis of a proposed Senior Day Care Center located on Beverly Boulevard at Taylor Street in the City of Montebello. The study addressed different traffic issues related to the proposed project, including: on -site parking requirements, on -site circulation evaluation, passenger loading and unloading recommendations, and traffic impact analysis. Duration: 4 months (2002) Traffic Study for a Commercial Development on Pipeline Avenue — Chino Hills, CA Mr. Li served as Project Manager to prepare a traffic impact study for a proposed commercial development located on Pipeline Avenue just north of Chino Hills Parkway (SR-142) in the City of Chino Hills. A total of nine intersections were included in the study. Different scenarios for Opening Year and Horizon Year were analyzed and feasible mitigation measures were presented for intersections with significant impacts. The project required coordination with and approval from City of Chino Hills, City of Chino and Caltrans. Duration: 8 months (2003) Traffic and Parking Study for Bernards Bros Headquarters — San Fernando, CA Mr. Li served as Project Manager and Traffic Engineer to prepare a traffic impact and parking study for a proposed multi -story headquarters building of Bernards Bros Construction Company in the City of San Fernando. The project also involved vacating Ilex Street at Fox Street to accommodate the new parking lot. Closure of Ilex Street would result in loss of several on -street parking spaces. Besides evaluating the traffic impacts as a result of the project and street closure, the study also addressed the effect of the loss of parking spaces to the surrounding businesses. Mr. Li attended the Planning Commission and the City Council meetings to present the study results and to answer questions from the Commission/Council Members and from local businesses within the project area. The project was subsequently approved by the City Council. Duration: 9 months (2003) Traffic Study for South Center Street PSSR — Westmorland, CA Mr. Li served as Project Manager for the preparation of a traffic study along South Center Street from Highway 86 to Baughman Road in the City of iteris Westmorland. The City of Westmorland is in a strategic location on the northwestern portion of Imperial County and serves as the gateway into the Imperial Valley from Los Angeles and Riverside Counties. Hwy 86, which traverses in an east -west direction through the City, is the primary surface transportation corridor into the County. With the implementation of the North American Fair Trade Agreement (NAFTA), the region has experienced a dramatic increase in surface transportation, especially 18-wheel truck traffic. The purpose of the study was to forecast the future traffic demands, including truck traffic, in 5-, 10- and 20-year horizon, and to propose improvements at key intersections that would alleviate any future traffic problems. A traffic signal warrant analysis was also conducted at the intersection of S. Center Street and Hwy 86 as part of this project. Duration: 11 months (2002) On -Call Traffic Engineering Consultant — Eastvale, CA Mr. Li served as a Traffic Engineering Consultant for City of Eastvale from March 2014 to June 2016: • Citywide signal timing monitoring, including responding to residents' requests for timing check • Citywide traffic signal equipment inventory • Traffic signal timing parameter update per latest MUTCD requirements • Traffic signal warrant analysis • Traffic signal timing sheets preparation for new signals • Fiber optic communication upgrade design for Hamner Avenue • Traffic signal synchronization along Hamner Ave State Route 75 (SR-75) Adaptive Traffic Signal Control (ATSC) System — Coronado, CA Mr. Li served as Project Manager for this project which consists of the evaluation, design, installation, and maintenance of the Siemens SCOOT ATSC system at four signalized intersections along SR-75, next to the Navy Amphibious Base in the City of Coronado. Iteris, as part of a multidisciplinary team, is responsible for conducting the "before/after" study analysis to assess the efficiency of the adaptive signal system in reducing traffic congestion, delays, travel times, and traffic emissions along the study segment. In addition, during the installation of the ATSC system, Iteris utilized a Synchro simulation model to quantify the expected traffic flow improvements that the ATSC system brought. The project began in July 2017 and completed in April 2018.
