WORK F'LAN A separate analysis of regional roadways is recommended to comply with requirements of the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC). The ACTC requires the analysis of project impacts to Metropolitan Transportation System (MTS) roadways for development projects that would generate more than 100 PM peak hour trips. Based on preliminary trip generation estimates,the proposed Project would generate substantially more than 100 PM peak hour trips. The ACTC requires that the baseline forecasts be represented by the model run completed by the ACTC. Fehr&Peers proposes to add the project-related traffic directly to the baseline forecasts and compare the net change as a percentage of total traffic.The ACTC model is based on the 2015 and 2035 forecast years.It will be used to evaluate segments on the MTS roadways in the study area, to be identified in consultation with the ACTC. This scope of work includes assessment of up to 30 freeway and arterial roadway segments. Transit Analysis The potential transit trip generation for the Project will be cdculated. The existing load factors of the transit routes in the Plan Area will be reviewed. Potential transit trips from the project will he added to the existing routes in the area to determine if project-related transit trips can be accommodated by the existing system. Project Alternatives Fehr& Peers will perform a qualitative evaluation of up to two project build alternatives as well as the No Project scenario. Trip generation will be calculated and compared to that of the proposed project. The potential for the alternatives to reduce the significant impacts of the project will be discussed;however,detailed intersection and freeway analysis will not be completed for the alternatives. Documentation The following documents will be prepared: • Technical Memorandum summarizing study intersections for City review and approval Subtask 8.6-Draft FCS will respond to the City's comments on the Administrative Draft EIR, Environmental Impact complete necessary revisions,and publish the Screencheck Draft EIR,prior Report to public review. Once the product is deemed acceptable for public distribution,we will take responsibility for distribution of the Draft EIR. To facilitate this process,the following steps will be taken for the Specific Plan El R: Coordinate with the City's Planner who will assemble comments on,and suggested revisions to,the Administrative Draft ElR.One set of unified City staff comments will be provided to FCS.The City will reconcile conflicting review comments,if needed,among City staff before giving comments to FCS. Complete one set of revisions to the Administrative Draft EIR,pursuant to review comments. Revisions will be prepared in conformance with the scope of work. if additional revisions are required based upon factors such as ---- .---_ _ GATES *ASSOCIATES
