Figure 4 displays the directional distribution percentages for <br />the proposed development. The combination of background traffic and trips generated by the <br />proposed development is shown in Figurc 5 for year 2005, tor the a.m. and p.m. peak hours. <br /> <br />2005 Build Traffic Operations Analysis <br /> <br />To ddermine how ,veil the existing roadway system will accommodate the proposed <br />development. a traftic operations analysis was conducted for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours for <br />year 2005, The future operations analysis assumes that the programmed improvements at CSAll <br />96/Hamline Avcnue will be in place. These improvements ineludean additional westbound leit- <br />tllrn lane and a southbound through [unc going away irom the intcrsectiun that ends <br />approximately 500 feet south ofthc intersection. These base geometries arc showu in figllre 5. <br /> <br />As shown in Table 3. one of the intersections is expected to operate at an unacceptable level or <br />service undcr year 2005 build conditions, with existing traCJk controls and basc gcomclrics. <br /> <br />Table 3 <br />Year 2005 Capacity Analysis <br />Level of Service Results <br /> <br />Intersection Level of Senice <br /> A.M.
