completion of the proposed Project. Near -term (Year 2025) cumulative daily and peak hour traffic <br />forecasts were projected by incorporating a one percent (1.0%) annual growth rate and the trip <br />generation potential of thirty (30) related projects. Long-term (Year 2040) daily and peak hour <br />traffic forecasts were projected based on modeled traffic projections prepared by OCTA utilizing the <br />OCTAM 4.0 Year 2040 Model. <br />1.2 Study Area <br />Based on a "50 trip threshold" for analysis and collaboration with City staff, twenty-five (25) key <br />study intersections have been identified for evaluation. The twenty-five (25) intersections listed <br />below provide regional and local access to the study area and define the extent of the boundaries for <br />this traffic impact investigation. <br />Key Study Intersections <br />1. Elk Lane at First Street (Santa Ana) <br />2. I-5 SB On -Ramp at First Street <br />(Santa Ana/Caltrans) <br />3. Cabrillo Park Drive at First Street (Santa Ana) <br />4. Golden Circle Drive at First Street (Santa Ana) <br />5. Tustin Avenue at First Street (Tustin) <br />6. Yorba Street at First Street (Tustin) <br />7.

The Level of Service (LOS) investigations at <br />these key locations were used to evaluate the potential traffic -related impacts associated with area <br />growth, cumulative projects and the proposed Project. When necessary, this report recommends <br />intersection and/or roadway improvements that may be required to accommodate future traffic <br />volumes and restore/maintain an acceptable Level of Service, and/or mitigates the impact of the <br />project. <br />
