Lexington Station Phase 3 Traffic Study February 26, 2021 <br /> Page 11 <br />Table 5. Trip Generation Estimates <br />Land Use Type (ITE Code) Size A.M. Trips P.M.

Results <br />of the trip generation estimates indicate that the proposed development is expected to generate <br />approximately 165 a.m. peak hour, 398 p.m. peak hour and 4,592 daily trips. Trips generated were <br />distributed throughout the area based on the directional distribution shown in Figure 5, which was <br />developed based on existing travel patterns and engineering judgement. The resultant year 2023 traffic <br />forecasts, which include general background growth and trips generated by the development, are <br />shown in Figure 6. <br />Intersection Operations Analysis <br />To understand how the adjacent roadway network is expected to operate under year 2023 build <br />conditions, a detailed intersection capacity analysis was completed using Synchro/SimTraffic software. <br />Similar to 2023 no build conditions, the Lexington Avenue reconstruction project was assumed, signal <br />timing was optimized, and the Lexington Avenue/Target Road intersection was evaluated with and <br />without a traffic signal. <br />Results of the year 2023 build intersection capacity analysis, shown in Table 6, indicates that the <br />operational issues identified at the Lexington Avenue/Target Road intersection under the existing and <br />year 2023 no build conditions are expected to increase as development occurs. Given the level of <br />adjacent development planned, construction of the proposed development is expected to accelerate <br />the need for traffic control signal at the study intersection. <br />Table 6. 2023 Build Intersection Capacity Analysis <br />Intersection <br />LOS (Delay) <br />A.M.
