2.2 Traffic and Circulation <br /> <br />Project-Related Traffic Safety Impacts <br /> <br /> Impact= Unsafe traffic conditions at Sunol Boulevard/Project Street <br /> <br /> The City finds that approval of the project without adequate <br /> roadway improvements on Sunol Boulevard at the intersection with <br /> the project street and at the Sunol Boulevard/Arlington Drive <br /> intersection would result in unsafe traffic conditions. This is a <br /> significant impact (Draft EIR, page 4-8). <br /> <br /> Proposed Mitigation Measures of the EIR <br /> <br /> The EIR identified the following mitigation measures which would <br /> substantially avoid this project-related traffic impact. <br /> <br /> 4-1 Improvements to Sunol Boulevard at Project Street: Westbound <br /> to southbound left turn lane; relocate project street <br /> intersection to the west; recommended lane widths; and widen <br /> paved area along project frontage. Said mitigation measure <br /> was considered and adopted with any pertinent changes"as <br /> Condition 4-1, Exhibit "B" of the City Council staff report <br /> dated June 16, 1992. In addition, the project has been <br /> modified to include applicable mitigation measures as detailed <br /> in the City Council staff report dated June 16, 1992. <br /> <br /> 4-2 Improvements to Sunol Boulevard at Project Street: sign and <br /> provide median to prohibit northbound to westbound left'turn <br /> streets from project street (Draft EIR, page 4-1S). Said <br /> mitigation measure was considered and adopted with any <br /> pertinent changes as Condition 4-2, Exhibit "B" of the City <br /> Council staff report dated June 16, 1992. <br /> <br /> 4-3 Improvements to Sunol Boulevard at Project Street: provide <br /> 375 feet of eastbound to southbound right-turn deceleration <br /> lane on Sunol Boulevard (Draft EIR, page 4-18). Said <br /> mitigation measure was considered and adopted with any <br /> pertinent changes as Condition 4-3, Exhibit "B" of the City <br /> Council staff report dated June 16, 1992. <br /> <br /> 4-4 Improvements at Sunol Boulevard andArlington Drive: prohibit <br /> northbound to southbound U-turns at the Sunol <br /> Boulevard/Arlington Drive intersection (Draft EIR, page 4-18). <br /> Said mitigation measure was considered. It was determined <br /> that the installation of a traffic light was more appropriate <br /> in terms of traffic movement and public safety. A mitigation <br /> measure was adopted as Condition 4-4, Exhibit "B" of the City <br /> Council staff report dated June 1G, 1992. <br /> <br /> <br />
