Transportation Impact Study Pleasanton Gateway Retail /Office Plaza June 2009 MTS Roadway System Impacts were identified on one MTS roadway segment in 2035: • Main Street (Santa Rita Road) between Bernal Avenue and St. Mary Street Payment of the City of Pleasanton and Tri- Valley Regional traffic impact fees would mitigate the impact on Main Street. Although no improvements are planned on this facility, the fees would fund construction of parallel capacity, such as improvements to State Route 84, El Charro Road extension, Stoneridge Drive extension, and High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes on 1 -580 and 1 -680. On -Site Findings Site access, circulation, and parking were reviewed for the proposed Project. A summary of recommendations is below and summarized on Figure ES -1: • Provide modified full access (left - turns, no through movements) to the site from Bernal Avenue • Modify the Bernal Avenue driveway to extend the driveway throat • Construct a crosswalk across Bernal Avenue at Koll Center Drive and provide a pedestrian signal to facilitate pedestrian trips between the north and south sides of Bernal Avenue • Construct a right -turn only lane on Valley Avenue serving the northernmost driveway • Restrict access to the first drive aisle serving the gas station to inbound only and eliminate four of the parking stalls on the parking aisle. Vehicles backing out of these parking stalls would conflict with drivers entering the site and making the right turn toward the gas station and retail pads • Designate areas for patrons to deposit their shopping carts in proximity to the grocery store • Provide a vehicular and shopping cart accessible connection between building 7 and the grocery store. This would minimize the potential for pedestrian crossings if the main north -south drive aisle by providing an alternative location to accommodate grocery store traffic during peak times such as weekends and weekday evenings. • Allow shared parking between the grocery store and office components of the project • Provide all -way stop - control at the main internal intersections • Consider relocating bicycle parking shown in the vehicular parking area at buildings 4 and 5 adjacent to the buildings • Although sufficient assessable parking is provided on -site, accessible parking should be reallocated to the area serving shops 1 and 2, as no handicap accessible stalls are designated in this area • Consider reorienting the parking areas serving buildings 4, 6, and 7 to minimize vehicular/ pedestrian conflicts in the office areas, if it does not result on the loss of parking spaces or create an inefficient circulation pattern • Flare the internal intersection approached at the intersection between buildings 1 and 3 to better accommodate emergency vehicles • Provide a bus pullout on the south side of Bernal Avenue on the far side of the Project driveway. A bus shelter should also be constructed. • Develop a construction management plan for review and approval by the City Community Development Department sr �. FEHR St PEERS TRANSPORTATION CONSULTANTS
