Peak 7:30-8.30 A.M. 1,474 trips off the campus during the P.M. Peak 4:30-5:30 P.M. 2020: 2,860 trips onto the campus during the A.M. Peak 7:30-8:30 A.M. 2,573 trips off the campus during the P.M. Peak 4:30-5:30 P.M. AN ESTIMATE OF THE IMPACT ON TRAFFIC CONGESTION ON THE AFFECTED ROADS AND DESCRIBE ANY TRAFFIC IMPROVEMENTS WHICH WILL BE NECESSARY. IF THE PROJECT IS WITHIN THE TWIN CITIES METROPOLITIAN AREA, DISCUSS ITS IMPACT ON THE REGIONAL TRANSPORTATION SYSTEM. AUAR: For most AUAR reviews a relatively detailed traffic analysis will be needed, especially if there is to be much commercial development in the AUAR area or if there are major congested roadways in the vicinity. The results of the traffic analysis must be used in the response to Item 22 and to the noise aspect of Item 24. Instead of responding to the information called for in Item 21, the following information should be provided: A description and map of the existing and proposed roadway system, including state. regional, and local roads to be affected by the development of the A UAR area. This information should include existing and proposed roadway capacities and existing and projected background (i.e., without the AUAR development) traffic volumes. . Trip generation data - trip generation rates and trip totals - for each major development scenario broken down by land use zones and/or other relevant subdivisions of the area. The projected distributions onto the roadway system must be included. . Analysis of impacts of the traffic generated by the A UAR area on the roadway system, including: comparison of peak period total flows to capacities analysis of Levels of Service and delay times at critical points (ifany). . A discussion of structural and non-structural improvements and traffic management measures that are proposed to mitigate problems. NOTE: In the ahove analyses the geographical scope must extend outward as far as the traffic to be generated would have a significant effect on the road.way system and traffic measurements and projections should include peak days and peak hours, or other appropriate measures related to identifj'ing congestion problems, as well as ADTs.
