�1arc Culver Cin� of Roseville Table 4. Year 2016 Intersection Capacity Analysis A.M. Peak Hour I ntersectio n Dale Street/Lovell Avenue �1> Dale Street/Cope Avenue �1> LOS Delay A/C 22 sec. A/C 18 sec. P.M. Peak Hour LOS Delay A/C 20 sec. A/C 22 sec. (1) Indicates an unsignalized intersection with side-street stop control, where the overall LOS is shown followed by the worst approach LOS. The delay shown represents the worst side-street approach delay. March 26, 2014 Page 10 The results of the operations analysis indicate that the pYOposed development will have minimal impact to the adjacent roadway network. Therefore, no roadway improvements are recommended from an operations perspective. Site Review A review of the proposed site plan was completed to identify potential issues and recommend improvements with regard to access spacing, sight distance, and circulation. The following findings are offered for consideration: Access Spacing The site plan proposes drivewa�r access along Cope Avenue and construction of two alleys, appro�mately 80 feet and 300 feet west of Dale Street The easternmost proposed alley is located within the e�sting eastbound right-turn lane at the Da1e Street/Lovell Avenue intersection. Although this access spacing is not ideal, there is not expected to be any operational issues due to the relatively low tYaffic volumes along Lovell Avenue and Cope Avenue. It should be noted that the function of local streets is to provide access to adjacent properries and neighborhoods. Sight Distance Based on field observations, there is currently adequate sight distance at the proposed access locations to clearly identifv approaching vehicles. Special consideration should be made to limit any sight distance impacts from future structures, landscaping and signing. This includes trees in the boulevard as shown on the proposed site plan. Circulation A Yeview of the proposed site circulation was completed. The movement of general passenger vehicles within the proposed development is not expected to be an issue. Furthermore, the proposed alley widths are 18 feet, which is adequate for two-way traffic at low traffic speeds.
