<br />3200 Hopyard Road Redevelopment – Transportation Assessment <br />January 2, 2024 <br />2 <br /> <br />Project Trip Generation Assessment <br />To estimate trips generated by the existing and proposed developments for the a.m. and p.m. peak hours as well as for weekday daily trips, TJKM utilized the published trip generation rates from the Institute of Transportation Engineers’ (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition (TGM) and consistent <br />with the methodology published in ITE’s Trip Generation Handbook, 3rd Edition (TGH). <br />TJKM used published trip rates for the ITE Land Use Code (LUC) 860 (Church) and ITE LUC 565 (Day <br />Care) to estimate the existing traffic on the site and ITE LUC 220 (Multifamily Housing Low-Rise) to estimate traffic for the proposed use. The trip generation and comparison between uses are portrayed in Table 1. As illustrated, the proposed development would generate approximately 127 more trips during a typical weekday, including eight more trips during the a.m. commuter peak hour, and 11 more <br />trips during the commuter p.m. peak hour. <br />Based on 2020 traffic counts collected by the City, the average daily traffic (ADT) along Hopyard Road in the vicinity of the project was approximately 38,750 vehicles per day (vpd). With additional project traffic, Hopyard Road is expected to see an increase of less than one percent in utilization. Thus, TJKM does not expect that the proposed development would substantially affect traffic operations on the <br />adjacent road network. <br />Table 1: Project Trip Generation and Comparison (ITE TGM) <br /> <br />Notes: <br />General: Multiple ITE land use codes (LUC) have fitted curve equations for various analysis periods in addition to rates. The methodology <br />in the ITE's Trip Generation Handbook (3rd ed.) was utilized to determine which was used. <br />Of note, this memorandum was updated to revise the trip generation comparison. Originally, the trip generation excluded the daycare component from existing conditions. Based on comments from City staff, the trip generation comparison was required to be updated to include the day care facility but the LOS analyses did not need to be updated (as the LOS analyses would be conservative and inclusion <br />of the daycare component would not change the findings of the memorandum). <br /> <br />Total In:Out %In Out Total In:Out %In Out Total <br />Existing <br />Church 560 11.26 kSF 112 62:38 1 1 2 44:56 4 5 9Day Care Center 565 4.24 kSF 202 53:47 25 22 47 47:53 22 25 47EX Subtotal 15.5 kSF 314 26 23 49 26 30 56 <br />Proposed <br />Multifamily Housing 220 57 DU 441 24:76 10 31 41 63:37 28 17 45Proposed Subtotal 441 10 31 41 28 17 45Delta (Proposed - Existing)127 16 -8 8 -2 13 11 <br />Land Use ITE Code Size <br />------ Weekday ------ <br />Daily a.m. Peak Hour p.m. Peak Hour
