Attachment 1 FEHRkPEERS Fehr & Peers appreciates the opportunity to submit this proposal to perform transportation engineering services for the City of Pleasanton Johnson Drive Economic Development Zone. This area is generally zoned for General and Light Industrial uses; with the project, additional uses such as retail, highway and service commercial and office could be permitted. Our analysis will consider the transportation impacts to the City of Pleasanton roadway system with the project, which could result in land uses on the site that generate more traffic than assumed in previous transportation analysis efforts. The following presents our scope of work. SCOPE OF WORK Task 1—Project Characteristics and Study Intersection Identification Fehr & Peers will estimate the daily, morning and evening peak hour vehicle trip generation of the existing uses in the area, potential net-new trip generation if the area is fully built-out according to the current zoning, and potential net-new trip generation under the proposed zoning using appropriate trip generation rates published in Institute of Transportation Engineers' (ITE) Trip Generation Manual (9th Edition). We will estimate the trip distribution of project traffic under Existing, Near-Term and Cumulative conditions using sources such as existing counts, the location of complementary land uses and a select zone analysis from the City of Pleasanton Travel Demand Model. The results of this task will be used to finalize the list of intersections to include in the transportation impact assessment, discussed below. Fehr& Peers has developed an initial list of study intersections based on a review of projected operations at intersections in the vicinity of the Johnson Drive Economic Development Zone. While we intend for our analysis to pivot from the Housing Element and East Pleasanton Specific Plan analyses to the greatest extent possible, there are several gateway intersections in the vicinity of site that were not included in the Housing Element assessment, including the Stoneridge Drive interchange with Interstate 680 and the Hopyard Road interchange with Interstate 580. We recommended including those locations in this assessment due to the proximity of the project and the potential for project traffic to alter travel patterns in the area. We have preliminarily identified the following intersections that would be refined based on the results of the trip generation/trip assignment exercise above, but welcome the opportunity to further discuss with City staff additional intersections of concern that should be included in the assessment.
