EXISTING PEAK HOUR TRAFFIC CONDITIONS <br />Existing morning and evening peak hour turning movement counts were conducted at the study intersections <br />during the morning (6:00 to 9:00 AM} and afternoon/everung (2:00 to 6:00 PM) peak periods. Extended peak <br />period counts were made as the proposed project is located in close proximity to Segerstrom High School. <br />Existing morning and evening peak hour traffic volumes are shown on Figure 1. Copies of the count data <br />forms are provided in Appendix A to this report. <br />Existing peak hour operations were evaluated and the results are summarized on Table 1. The three study <br />intersections are currently operating at LOS B or better during both peak hours based on the ICU analysis. <br />Based on the HCS analysis, the intersection of Alton/Fairview is operating at LOS D or better during both <br />peak hours based on intersection delay. The intersection of Alton/Grreenville is operating at LOS E doting the <br />morning peak hour and at LOS D during the evening peak hour based on intersection delay. The intersection <br />of Alton/Raitt is operating at LOS F during the morning peak hour and at LOS D during the evening peak <br />hour based on intersection delay. <br />The HCS analysis also points out specific turning movements at each of the study area intersections where <br />queues of vehicles are experiencing LOS E and F delays. Specifically, the HCS analysis indicates: <br />• Alton/Fairview -Southbound left turn movement - LOS F in AM, LOS E in PM <br />• Alton/Greenville -Eastbound shared through/right tom movement - LOS E in AM <br />• AltonlGreenville -Westbound left turn movement - LOS F in AM <br />• Alton/Greenville -Northbound shared left turn/through movement - LOS E in PM <br />• Alton/Grreenville -Southbound shared left turn/through/right turn movement - LOS F in AM <br />• Alton/Raitt -Eastbound left tom movement - LOS F in AM and PM <br />• Alton/Raitt -Southbound left tom movement - LOS F in AM <br />• Alton/Raitt -Southbound tight tom movement - LOS E in AM <br />ICU and HCS worksheets for the Existing Conditions analysis are provided in Appendix B of this report. <br />PROJECT TRAFFIC <br />Trip generation estimates for the proposed Alton Court residential development were developed based on <br />three days of traffic counts made at the Aries Way driveway of the adjacent Charleston residential <br />development. The Charleston development is located immediately to the east of the proposed Alton Court <br />development. The Charleston development consists of 40 single-family attached dwelling units. The <br />Chazleston units each range in size from about 1,800 square feet to 2,200 square feet and include three (3) to <br />five (5) bedrooms. Each unit includes a 2-caz garage. As previously mentioned, the proposed Alton Court <br />residential development consists of 38 single-family detached dwelling units ranging from 1,800 square feet <br />to 2,200 square feet. Each unit will have three (3) bedrooms and a 2-caz garage. Thus, the two developments <br />are comparable and traffic counts made at the Charleston development would directly reflect the tripmaking <br />Traffic Analysis for - 4 - October, 2007 <br />Alton Court Residential Development <br />75A-135 <br />
