. <br /> maybe accomplished using experience, judgment, and knowledge of local conditions. <br /> 8. Trans„~ortation Systems and Level of Service Requirements. The TIA shall <br /> include: <br /> 8.1 Roadway and Intersection Ca <br /> ap <br /> city <br /> 8.1.1 All streets and intersections contiguous to the development; <br /> 8.1.2 All streets and intersections that provide direct access to or from the <br /> development, regardless of the generated volume of traffic; <br /> 8.1.3 All streets and intersections off site from the development that will <br /> receive 50 or more additional peak-hour vehiculaz trips upon completion of any <br /> phase of the development; <br /> 8.1.4 Level of Service standards for the completed development as <br /> calculated by methods identified in the most current edition of the Transportation <br /> Research Boazd's HighwaYCapacity Manual or Highway Capacity Software. Other <br /> capacity analysis programs may be used if approved by the City Traffic Engineer, or <br /> designee. All intersections andlor street segment links within the study azea must be <br /> evaluated for capacity. The manual and software contain separate calculations for <br /> two-lane and multi-lane free-flow roadways, signalized arterials, and signalized and <br /> unsignalized intersections. <br /> 8.2 Roadway and Intersection Safety. Projected accident rates for off-site streets <br /> and intersections that will receive 50 or more additional peak hour trips upon completion of <br /> the development, taking into consideration proposed mitigation measures including access <br /> restrictions. Accident records must be researched for all critical segment links and <br /> intersections within the study area. If accident rates, or patterns of accidents, are forming at <br /> certain locations, a determination must be made on whether the probability of these <br /> occurrences will increase with the addition of the projected traffic volumes. Examples of <br /> recurring accidents include numerousright-angle or reaz-end collisions at an intersection, or <br /> a high frequency of vehicles leaving the roadway on a horizontal curve. <br /> 9. Meeting Minimum Level of Service and Safety Standards. The traffic study shall <br /> identify mitigation measures to meet a minimum level of service and safety standards. The TIA shall <br /> state whether the applicant will have the mitigation measures in place at the time of occupancy of <br /> <br /> . the properties, or if a financial commitment is in place to complete the necessary infrastructure <br /> within a reasonable length of time from the approval date of the development. <br /> 10. On-Site Planning and Parking Principles. <br /> 10.1 The TIA shall show: <br /> 10.1.1 How off-site roadway improvements are integrated with on-site <br /> circulation patterns; <br /> 10.1.2 Driveway traffic volumes, both in terms of queuing space and <br /> Administrative Order - 6 <br /> r:\adminord\rules\02stdstia2ao.wpd(06/19/02) <br /> <br />
