buildout with project conditions were evaluated relative to buildout without project conditions in order to determine potential long —term project impacts. The proposed project would generate 2,009 daily vehicle trips with 185 trips occurring during the a.m. peak hour (94 inbound trips and 91 outbound trips) and 132 trips during the p.m. peak hour (68 inbound trips and 64 outbound trips). Project trip distribution was completed using the City of Pleasanton Travel Demand Forecast (TDF) model. Four intersections were included in the traffic analysis: 1. Hopyard Road and 1 -580 EB Off Ramp 2. Hopyard Road and Owens Drive 3. Johnson Drive and Owens Drive (southern end) 4. Johnson Drive and Owens Drive (northern end; non - signalized) All of the study intersections currently operate at LOS D or better. Under all study scenarios, all of the signalized study intersections would continue to operate at LOS D or better during the AM and PM peak hours with one exception: Hopyard Road and 1 -580 EB Off Ramp would operate at LOS E under the Buildout scenarios during the PM peak hour. Hopyard Road at 1 -580 EB off -ramp is identified as one of the City's Gateway intersections. As a "Gateway Intersection" per the General Plan, this intersection is exempt from requirement to maintain LOS D. Program 7.3 of the Circulation Element of the General Plan states: Design complete streets serving pedestrians, bicyclists, motorists, and transit riders of all ages and abilities, except where infeasible. Complete streets may include: alternative intersection control where appropriate; requiring bicycle and pedestrian connections from cul -de -sacs to adjacent streets, trails, bicycle paths, and neighborhoods; and incorporating appropriate traffic calming measures. To satisfy the City's Complete Streets requirements, the proposed project includes the dedication of a portion of the land along Hopyard Road for future construction of a right -turn only lane, a bicycle lane, and a sidewalk. In addition, the applicant would be required to participate in the City and Tri- Valley Traffic Impact Fee (TIF) programs. At the Hopyard Road and Owens Drive intersection, the LOS standards would be met under all study scenarios. However, this intersection has a northbound left-turn queue that will exceed the storage capacity of the left-turn lane in the existing and existing plus approved conditions without and with the project in the AM and PM peak hours. The proposed project would add up to a five -car increase in queue length to the northbound left -turn queue, resulting in an inadequate storage capacity for all scenarios in the PM peak hour. The solution to this queue capacity shortage is to either: 1) extend the existing northbound left -turn lane from 125 feet to 250 feet, or 2) construct a second northbound left -turn lane to accommodate the anticipated queues. The proposed project includes the extension of the existing left -turn lane south approximately 125 feet. This extension will require removal of four trees and relocate one street light. Since the developer would construct the lane extension, the developer will receive P13- 2533/PUD- 100/PUD- 96- 13 -02M Planning Commission Page 18 of 27
