ATTACHMENT 4 <br /> FEHR4PEERS <br /> DRAFT MEMORANDUM <br /> Date: July 25, 2013 <br /> To: Wayne Rasmussen, Rasmussen Planning <br /> From: Kathrin Tellez and Mackenzie Watten, Fehr& Peers <br /> Subject: Comparison of Land Use Options for East Pleasanton Specific Plan <br /> WC12-2967 <br /> This memorandum documents the transportation comparison of four land use and street network <br /> options for the East Pleasanton Specific Plan (EPSP). The comparison includes transportation <br /> metrics such as daily external vehicle trips, AM and PM peak hour external vehicle trips, internal <br /> trips, and trips by transit, and expected levels of walking and bicycling through the site. In <br /> addition, we reviewed the options qualitatively concerning potential cut-through traffic and <br /> number of access points. Expected peak hour intersection service levels at the intersections that <br /> would provide primary access to the site are also discussed, as well as next steps for further <br /> analysis on the preferred land use and circulation option. <br /> OPTIONS DESCRIPTION <br /> Four land use and circulation options are under consideration,with the land use elements of each <br /> option summarized in Table 1. All options have the same amount of retail and office land use <br /> and a generally even split between single and multi-family housing. Option 4 contains the most <br /> non-residential uses while Option 6 contains the most residential uses. <br /> Appendix A displays the roadway layout for each of the options. The roadway layouts differ <br /> somewhat between options but share a common goal of connecting Busch Road from Valley <br /> Avenue to El Charro Road and completing the El Charro Road extension from Stoneridge Drive to <br /> Stanley Boulevard. An extension of Boulder Street from Valley Avenue through the site, <br /> terminating either at Busch Road or El Charro Road is considered within the options. <br /> The trip generation discussion for each option is purposely separated from the circulation <br /> discussion to permit this task force to independently select the preferred roadway network from <br /> the preferred land use. <br /> 100 Pringle Avenue 1 Suite 600 1 Walnut Creek,CA 94596 1 (925)930-7100 1 Fax(925)933-7090 <br /> www.feh ra nd peers.com <br />
