City of Roseville July 18,2007 Page 10 • Under year 2030 peak hour conditions, all key intersectionswill continue to operate at an acceptable overall LOS A with existing traffic controls and geometric layout. However, it is worth noting that during the weekday midday and p.m. peak hours, the west approach of Qakcresi Avenue is expected to operate at LOS E(approximately 40 seconds of delay). Alternatives 2 and 3 are expected to operate at an acceptable overall LOS B or better under year 2030 peak hour conditions, with the respective traffic controls and existing geometric layout. Under year 2030 peak hour conditions the installation of a traffic signal or signals does have a significant positive impact on the operations of the side-street approach(�s}. It should be noted that there will be no significant queuing issues along �airview Avenue, related to the installation of traffic signals under Alternatives 2 and 3. • The overall corridor operations were reviewed as part of the year 2030 operations as well to determine the impact Alternatives 2 and 3 will have on corridor mobility (travel time comparison). Results of the analysis indicate that Alternative 2 will increase travel times along Fairview Avenue an additional five seconds during the p.m. peak hour (worst case peak period). Alternative 3 will increase travel times along Fairvi��%v Avenue an additional 25 seconds during the p.m. peak hour (worst case peak period). It should be noted that the baseline travel time under Alternative 1 conditions (existing traffic control) was modeled to be approximately 215 seconds during the year 2030 p.m. peak hour. * A signal warrant analysis was completed for existing and year 2030 volume conditions. Results of this analysis show that under existing volume conditions, the intersection of Fairview Avsnue/Oalccrest Avenue does not meet signal warrants. Under year 2030 volume conditions, the intersection of �'a.irv�ew Aver�ua/Qakcres� Avenue meets multiple signal warrants, justifying the installation of a traffic signal (see Appendix for signal warrant analysis data and graphics). Based on this analysis it is not recommended to install a traffic signal at this time, but rather the intersection should be monitored continuously to determine its quantitative �rafiic signal need in the near future. �-i:lProjects161391T�eport16139 Final—Fairview-OakcrestTraffic Study.doc
