Kristine Giga, P.E. <br />City of Arden Hills <br />YEAR 2013 ALTERNATIVE 2 BUILD CONDITIONS <br />April 6, 2011 <br />Page 13 <br />To determine how well the existing roadway network will operate under year 2013 Alternative 2 <br />build conditions, an operations analysis was completed for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. Results <br />of the year 2013 Alternative 2 build operations analysis shown in Table 4 indicate all key <br />intersections will continue to operate at an acceptable overall LOS A during the a.m. and p.m. <br />peak hours with the existing geometric layout and traffic control. All side - street approaches will <br />continue to operate at LOS D or better during the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. No queuing issues <br />are expected. <br />Table 4 <br />Year 2013 Peak Hour Capacity Analysis — Alternative 2 <br />Level of Service Results <br />Intersection <br />Level of Service and Delays <br />A.M.

The overall LOS is shown followed by the <br />worst approach LOS. <br />Based on the results of the year 2013 Alternative 1 and 2 build operations analysis, there are no <br />significant traffic impacts expected due to the proposed development. The existing roadway <br />network has sufficient capacity to accommodate the proposed development. <br />SITE REVIEW <br />Review of the proposed site plans were completed to determine if there are specific issues that <br />should be addressed. The following comments and recommendations (shown in Figure 9) are <br />offered for your consideration: <br />a) Ensure proper traffic controls are installed at new intersections created as part of the <br />proposed development <br />o Uncontrolled intersections can create potential safety hazards and cause driver confusion <br />o Side - street stop control should be implemented at these intersections <br />b) Consider providing pedestrian facility connections (sidewalks and/or trails) to existing area <br />sidewalks /trails along County Road 96 and Arden View Drive (east of Keithson Drive) <br />o Although most single family homes within the existing neighborhood do not currently <br />have sidewalks, providing these pedestrian facility connections can improve pedestrian <br />safety and local connectivity to parks and trails <br />
