Impact 4.D-9 Development of the Project would increase traffic safety hazards for vehicles,bicyclists, and pedestrians on public roadways due to roadway design features, incompatible uses, or project-related vehicles trips. The Revised Final SEIR evaluates the impact of the Project related to traffic safety hazards. Significance Before Mitigation: Significant Significance After Mitigation: Less than Significant Finding: Changes have been incorporated into the Project that would avoid the significant environmental effect as identified in the Revised Final SEIR. Implementation of Mitigation Measures 4.D-3 and 4.D-4 would reduce this impact to a less than significant level and are incorporated into the Project. Facts in Support of Finding: The following facts and mitigation measures indicate that the impact would be reduced to less than significant. 1. Implementation of the Project could affect vehicular, bicycle, and pedestrian traffic along Johnson Drive, especially in relation to movements into and out of new uses developed along Johnson Drive. 2. Mitigation Measure 4.D-3 and 4.D-4 set forth in Table 5-1 of the Final SEIR and listed in the RMMRP will ensure that Impact 4.D-9 would be reduced to a less than significant level, and are hereby incorporated by reference and described below. Mitigation Measure 4.D-3: Johnson Drive Improvements. The City will review design plans for club retail and other traffic-intensive uses that would be developed as part of Phase I and buildout of the EDZ to determine needed improvements to accommodate additional traffic on Johnson Drive. If at the conclusion of this review the City determines that additional improvements to Johnson Drive are required, one or more of the following improvements shall be implemented: 1. If a club retail use is proposed for Parcel 6, signalize one or more entrances at Parcel 6, and widen Johnson Drive at this location,to accommodate a southbound left-turn pocket and a northbound right-turn pocket. 2. Widen Johnson Drive to provide up to two vehicle travel lanes in each direction from Stoneridge Drive to the main entries of sites with traffic- intensive uses(such as club retail).
