The existing lane geometry, access, and traffic control at the remaining existing intersections was not modified. With the realignment of the West Parking Access, vehicles are now able to use this access without creating left-turn issues as can be shown in the existing condition. Organized queueing space will also be provided so vehicles aren't weaving through the parking lot to form a line when exiting the lot during the PM peak hour. The results of the 2020 Mid-Block Signal and West Access Realignment Condition traffic operations analysis are summarized in Table 2. Like the 2020 Mid-Block Signal Only Condition, the mid-block signal was modeled with a 45-second cycle length, giving 24 seconds to the pedestrian phase and 21 seconds to the vehicle phase. Figure 8 displays the 2020 Mid-Block Signal and West Access Realignment Traffic Volumes. Parking lot trips were redistributed based on their origin and destination. Trips coming from/going to the west on Lake Valentine Road were assigned to the West Parking Access and trips coming from/going to the east were assigned to the East Parking Access. This is expected to represent actual distribution because it will keep these drivers from driving through the mid-block signal where they would likely have to stop. As in the 2020 Mid-Block Signal, all pedestrians were relocated to the mid-block signal to cross Lake Valentine Road. As Table 2 shows the average delay for each peak hour, it is assumed that the peak 15-minute periods will experience slightly higher delays than shown.
