Walmart (Store #3404-05) Traffic Impact Analysis Roseville, Minnesota Trip Generation th The Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE)Trip Generation, 8 Edition, was used to calculate the anticipated net new external project trips for the proposed development. A 160,000 square foot free-standing discount superstore (land use code 813) was used to determine the number of trips generated by the site. The pass-by trip reduction was determined to be 28 percent and was taken from existing traffic on Cleveland Avenue N (CSAH 46) and County Road C W (CSAH 23). Existing non-vehicular travel was examined in the TMCs and determined to be negligible; therefore, no reductions were made for transit use or pedestrian travel. The trip generation for the proposed project with adjustments for pass-by trips is shown in Table 1 . The proposed site is anticipated to generate 531 trips (261 entering, 270 exiting) in the p.m. peak hour. In the longer term, the two restaurants on the outparcels on the west side of the site were also assumed to be in operation. Land use code 932, representing high-turnover (sit- down) restaurants, was used for both outparcels. An internal capture rate of 20 percent between the two restaurants and Walmart was assumed based on the Institute of nd Transportation Engineers’ (ITE)Trip Generation Handbook, 2 Edition. As the smaller trip generator, the restaurants were the limiting factor in determination of total internal trips, with a total of 29. Pass-by was then applied to the remaining external trips, at a rate of 28 percent for the Walmart and 43 percent for the restaurants. In total, the three parcels are expected to generate 577 external trips (292 entering, 285 exiting) in the p.m. peak hour. Trip generation for the Walmart store and two outparcels for 2030 analysis is Table 2 shown in. 8 July 2011
