� Mr. Wayne Wentz June 11, 1993 Page Two Trio Generation 8 Distribution: Using the fitted curve equations Por Code 230 (Residential Condomin�ums) of ITE's "Trip Generation" manual (5th edition, 1991), an estimated 85U daily �nd 81 PM peak trips would be generated by the proposed 137 condo units. During the criticx PM peak hour, the d;rectional split for site traffic would be 36 % inbound (53 vph) .and 34 % outbound (28 vph). The trip distribution for site traffic would be the same as estimated by GTC for the prior apartment. proposal (por October 1990 report), and is summarized in Figure 2 along with daily/peak trip assignments. An estimated 50 % of site traffic would be destined west on Everett Mall Way (EMW), 40 % east on EMW and 10 % s�uth to Everett Ma1T shopping center. �CaK� wo oona,cions at EMW/W Mall Drive• A new 2-hour PM peak turning count was completed by TraFfic Data Gathering (TDG) on Tuesday May tA, 1993 at the EMW intersection with West Mall • Drive (WMD). PM peak turning volumes are summarized on attached diagrams, with an existing 2-way peak volume of 3,070 vph on EMW west of WMD and a total enteri�g volume (TEV) of 3,603 vph. Note: The Cliristmas 1990 weekday peak volumes were 3-4 % higher than existing 1993 spring volumes at this location, with a PM peak TEV of 3,731 vph. Pedestrian crossing volumes were also counted at this intersection, with a total of 25 crossing movements counted during the 4:00-5:00 PM peak hour (west leg was highest with 11 peds.). Using Circular 212 methodology for calcu7ating LOS per City guidelines, this multi-phase fully- actuated signal presently operates at LOS "C" during the weekday PM peak hour with a V/C ratio of o.74 (CV = 1,01A vph). With the proposed project plus 4% annual growth in background traffic, the EMW/WMD inLersection would continue to operate at LOS "C" with a V/C ratio of 0.78 (CV = 1,076 vph). Thus, acceptable peak-four operations occur at present and in 1994 with th�3 proposed 137 condominium units should be constructed/occupied. Site Access 8 Safetv Issues• The prior apartment proposal included two (2) access driveways near the north and south property boundaries. The curre.-nt proposal ca11s for a U-shaped access loop with ramps to parking garages from within the loop. A total of 3 access points ont;o W, p1a11 Drive are proposed. GTC recommends that the outside "U loop" driveways have one-way circulation (north access as eritry only; south access as exit only). This would enhance traffic safety for exiting maneuvers, since the "U" exit and 2-way sub-basement access ramp would be separated a distance of about 60 feet. Note: "U" entry and access ramp are adjacent, with potential safety problems if exit permitted on both access points. A11 site access roads/ramps would be 20 feet wide to satisfy City fire code requirements. Two-way traffic operations in the "U" curve area could be hazardous, although the proposed 20-foot width would be very desirable with one-way circulation recommended by GTC. �� RAFFIC OO M�Md4G^Qa4�
