The net volume changes are added/subtracted from the existing volumes. <br />The roadway system is the same as existing conditions. <br />• Existing Plus Approved Projects (EPAP) No Project Conditions – Existing volumes plus <br />traffic estimates for approved and pending developments and/or traffic increases due to <br />regional growth and transportation system improvements anticipated to be completed, <br />including improvements that are conditional upon approved development projects. <br />Traffic volumes for this scenario were forecast using the City of Pleasanton’s travel <br />demand model. <br />• Existing Plus Approved Projects (EPAP) Plus Project – Traffic volumes from EPAP No <br />Project conditions plus traffic that would be generated by the development of the project. <br />Similar to Existing Conditions Plus Project, the proposed housing element land uses are <br />added to the EPAP travel demand model, replacing current uses if applicable, to estimate <br />traffic volume changes at the study intersections. The net volume changes are <br />added/subtracted from the base forecast from EPAP No Project. The roadway system is <br />the same as in the EPAP No Project scenario. <br />• Existing Plus Approved Projects Conditions Plus Project Plus El Charro Road <br />Extension – Land uses assumed in this scenario are consistent with EPAP Plus Project, but <br />it evaluates traffic patterns with construction of the El Charro Road extension. To <br />determine the effect of the El Charro Road extension (from Stoneridge Drive to Stanley <br />Boulevard), the model is run with the roadway extension in place and the resulting <br />changes in travel patterns are identified and applied to the forecasts presented in EPAP <br />Plus Project. <br />• Far Term (Cumulative) No Project Conditions – Projected traffic volumes and the <br />projected roadway system using the City of Pleasanton Travel Demand Model. The El <br />Charro Road extension is included in the cumulative scenarios. <br />• Far Term (Cumulative) Project Conditions – Traffic volumes from Cumulative No <br />Project plus changes from development of the housing element update sites. Similar to <br />the other project scenarios, the proposed housing element update land uses are added to <br />the Buildout travel demand model, replacing current or planned uses if applicable, to <br />estimate traffic volume changes at the study intersections. The net volume changes are <br />added/subtracted to the forecasts from Cumulative No Project. <br />
