Memorandum <br />www.srfconsulting.com <br />3701 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite 100 | Minneapolis, MN 55416-3791 | 763.475.0010 Fax: 1.866.440.6364 <br />An Equal Opportunity Employer <br />SRF No. 14324.00 <br />To: Joe Vavrina, PE, LEED AP, Senior Project Manager <br />HR Green | Land Development <br />From: Jeff Bednar, TOPS, Senior Traffic Engineering Specialist <br />Date: March 26, 2021 <br />Subject: Chick-fil-A - Arden Hills, MN | Traffic Study <br />Introduction <br />SRF has completed a traffic study for the proposed Chick-fil-A development, which is located in the <br />northwest quadrant of the Lexington Avenue and Red Fox Road intersection in the City of Arden <br />Hills (see Figure 1: Project Location). The primary objectives of the study are to review existing <br />operations within the study area, identify any transportation impacts both externally and internally to <br />the site, and recommend improvements to address any issues, if necessary. The following information <br />provides the assumptions, analysis, and study recommendations offered for consideration. <br />Existing Conditions <br />Existing conditions were reviewed to establish a baseline and identify any future impacts associated <br />with the proposed development. Evaluation of the existing conditions includes a review of traffic <br />volumes, roadway characteristics, and an intersection capacity analysis, which are summarized in the <br />following sections. <br />Traffic Volumes <br />Weekday a.m. and p.m. peak period vehicular turning movement and pedestrian/bicyclist counts were <br />collected by SRF during the week of February 22, 2021 at the following study intersections: <br />x Lexington Avenue and Red Fox Road (traffic signal controlled) <br />x Red Fox Road and East Site Access <br />x Red Fox Road and West Site Access <br />Historical average daily traffic (ADT) volumes were provided by the Minnesota Department of <br />Transportation (MnDOT) for the study area. Note that traffic data collection efforts were conducted <br />during the COVID-19 pandemic and traffic volumes were estimated to be approximately 20 to 30 <br />percent lower than normal conditions for the study area. Therefore, the newly collected turning <br />movements were adjusted to reflect non-COVID conditions by using a combination of recently <br />collected ADT volumes in the study area between 2016 and 2019 and turning movement counts <br />collected/developed as part of the Lexington Station Traffic Study completed by SRF in May 2013 <br /> $WWDFKPHQW*
