The level of service for the <br />signalized intersections was estimated using Synchro computer software. The <br />unsignalized intersection level of service was estimated using the unsignalized <br />intersection module of the Highway Capacity Software. <br /> <br />l <br /> <br />Table 22-2 summarizes the level of service for the signalized intersections. Level of <br />service D is generally considered acceptable operating conditions. As table 21-2 <br />presents, no level of service difficulties are expected at any of the five signalized <br />intersections. In addition, all movemen~ at the five intersections are expected to <br />operate at LOS D or better in the 2004 p.m. peak hour under the currently proposed <br />development concept. <br /> <br />TABLE 22-2 <br />P.M.

D <br /> <br />j <br /> <br />Level of service results for the unsignalized intersections are presented in Table 22-3. <br />Unsignalized intersection results refer to the lowest side street approach level of service <br />experienced. All intersections are expected to provide level of service D or better <br />operations under all 2004 scenarios, with the exception of the North Centre Pointe Drive <br />intersection with Cleveland Avenue. The high volume of left turns expected from North <br />Centre Pointe Drive to northbound Cleveland Avenue will likely cause the west approach <br />of the intersection to operate at level of service F in the 2004 p.m. peak hour under the <br />current proposed development concept. <br /> <br />J <br />I <br /> <br />Page 23 <br />
