0 <br />CONCLUSIONS <br />While, the development of the Fuddruckers restaurant will result in additional <br />trips to the frontage road and to the intersection of the frontage road and <br />Snelling Avenue, the proposed realignment of the frontage road to improve <br />the intersection with Snelling Avenue will improve the safety and capacity <br />of the intersection so that the additional trips generated by the <br />restaurant will have no significant affect on the average vehicle delay at <br />this intersection. Based on the traffic analysis of the proposed <br />restaurant the following conclusions were reached. <br />• The peak hour of generation of the Fuddruckers restaurant occurs <br />between noon and 1:00 PM and between 6:00 and 7:00 PM when volumes <br />on Snelling Avenue are lower. <br />• The Fuddruckers restaurant would generate fewer PM peak hour trips <br />than an office development on this site. <br />• The site developer would make improvements to the alignment of the <br />frontage road at the intersection with Snelling Avenue to improve <br />safety and traffic flow at this intersection. <br />• There should be no impact to traffic flow on Snelling Avenue. <br />• There should be no significant impact to traffic operations at the <br />intersection of the frontage road and Snelling Avenue. There will <br />probably be some additional delay and queuing on the frontage road. <br />However the signal at Snelling and County Road C will create enough <br />gaps in the southbound Snelling Avenue traffic to allow traffic from <br />the frontage road to clear during every cycle, and the increased <br />delay and queuing would be minimal. <br />15 <br />
