LaLonde Development Traffic Study May 1, 2024 Page 11 SITE PLAN / OTHER CONSIDERATIONS A review of the proposed site plan does not indicate any major issues. However, the following items are offered for further consideration between the City and/or project team. Locate signage and landscaping to avoid creating any sight distance issues. Review truck maneuverability to limit potential internal circulation conflicts. Install a cul-de-sac at the intersection between Centerville Road and Westview Street to help facilitate winter maintenance and relocate the multiuse trail to outside of the cul-de-sac/roadway to reduce potential conflicts. If / when Phase 2 is developed, align the parking lot access to Centerville Road directly across from the Centerville Elementary School access. Depending on the potential mitigation, consider changing the Progress Road / Centerville Elementary School Access to right-in / right-out or three-quarter access to improve safety. CONCLUSIONS Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions are offered for consideration. 1)All study intersections and approaches currently operate at an acceptable LOS C or better during the typical weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hours, including the peak 15-minute pick-up / drop-off periods associated with the adjacent Centerville Elementary School. a.Existing queues are generally maintained within the current turn lanes provided within the study area although the westbound through lane queues along Main Street (CR 14) extend to Progress Road approximately five (5) percent of the p.m. peak hour. 2)The project is a 3-story 104-unit multifamily apartment building that would replace an existing single- family home (referred to as Phase 1). There is the potential for a future second phase of the development that was assumed to include a 6,000 square foot restaurant and a 10,000 square foot strip retail plaza. 3)Traffic forecasts were developed for year 2027 Phase 1 and Phase 2 build conditions, which included a two (2) percent annual background growth and trip generation from the proposed development (for each phase). a.Phase 1 of the proposed development is estimated to generate 55 a.m. peak hour, 65 p.m. peak hour, and 742 daily trips. b.After completion of Phase 2 of the proposed development, the overall site is estimated to generate a total of 120 a.m. peak hour, 167 p.m. peak hour, and 1,732 daily trips. 4)Key takeaways from the future year 2027 capacity analysis, include: a.Under Phase 1 build conditions, all intersections and approaches are expected to continue to operate at an acceptable LOS C or better during the typical weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hours, although the westbound movement along Main Street (CR 14) at Centerville Road (CR 21) is expected to operate at LOS E during the p.m. peak 15-minute period.
