4. Construct a second on-ramp lane to northbound I-680 from the westbound <br />Stoneridge Drive approach. The two lane on-ramp should be merged to one <br />lane prior to the freeway merge area. The lane drop will occur over a <br />distance of at least 800 feet, and will require reconstruction and widening of <br />the bridge at this on-ramp from one to two lanes, with the merge occurring <br />after the bridge. (Note: This improvement is within Caltrans right-of-way <br />and requires Caltrans design review and oversight.) <br />A funding mechanism for these improvements shall be approved by the City prior <br />to the issuance of the first building permit for a Phase I use that would generate 100 <br />or more PM or Saturday peak -hour trips. <br />Site(s) affected: All sites within the proposed Zone (Phase I and Full Buildout). <br />(Draft SEIR, pp. 4.D-20 to 4.D-38.) <br />Impact 4.D-2 <br />Development facilitated by the proposed Zone would affect levels of service at the <br />local study intersections under Near-term plus Project conditions (for vehicle queue spillback <br />impeding through traffic on Stoneridge Drive and blocking access to driveways along Johnson <br />Drive during PM peak hours, and for the Johnson Drive and Park and Ride Lot Intersection). <br />The SEIR evaluates the impact of the proposed Zone related to the potential to add <br />traffic to local study intersections to the point at which they would operate unacceptably under <br />Near-term plus Project conditions. <br />Significance Before Mitigation: Significant <br />Significance After Mitigation: Significant and Unavoidable <br />Finding: Changes have been incorporated into the proposed Zone that would <br />substantially lessen this impact, however, the changes would not reduce this impact <br />to a less -than -significant level. Mitigation Measures 4.D -la, 4.D -lb, 4.D -lc, and <br />4.D-ld are incorporated into the proposed Zone. <br />Facts in Support of Finding: The following facts and mitigation measures indicate <br />that the impact will not be reduced to less than significant. <br />1. Implementation of the proposed Zone would result in vehicle queue spillback <br />that would impede through traffic on Stoneridge Drive and block access to <br />driveways along Johnson Drive during PM peak hours, and for the Johnson <br />Drive and Park and Ride Lot Intersection. <br />2. Implementation of Mitigation Measures 4.D- 1 a, 4.D-1 b, 4.D-1 c, and 4.D- l d set <br />forth in Table 6-1 of the Final SEIR and listed in the MMRP will reduce the <br />49 <br />
