widenings assume that there are two continuous north and southbound lanes on Foothill Road <br />approaching this intersection. <br /> <br />Foothill Road at 1-580 Eastbound <br />The 1996 General Plan assumed that the 1-580 eastbound off ramps would be reconstructed to create a <br />signalized intersection like the one constructed by Dublin at the westbound 1-580 ramps. The Year 2025 <br />General Plan update scenarios assume the free right turn loop ramps remain as they are today. The <br />existing ramp configuration minimizes traffic delays and avoids the expenditure of several million <br />dollars to construct this project. <br /> <br />Foothill Road at Laurel Creek Way <br />Mitigation - Widen/restripe Foothill Road for 3 southbound lanes and eliminate the crosswalk crossing <br />Foothill Road <br />The 1996 General Plan assumes three lanes southbound on Foothill Road between 1-580 and Stoneridge <br />Drive. The Year 2025 scenarios that include some of the 1996 General Plan road widenings assume <br />that there are three continuous southbound lanes on Foothill Road approaching this intersection. <br /> <br />There is an existing crosswalk at this intersection crossing Foothill Road on the south leg of the <br />intersection. There is no sidewalk, pedestrian path, but stop, housing or other destination a pedestrian <br />needs to access along the west side of Foothill Road near this intersection. However, the traffic signal <br />must be programmed to accommodate a pedestrian crossing Foothill Road as long as this crosswalk <br />exists. This pedestrian crossing time far exceeds the amount of green time needed by vehicles exiting <br />Laurel Creek Way. This needlessly complicates coordinating this signal with the other signals along <br />Foothill Road, and takes green time away from other residents driving through the intersection. <br />Removing the crosswalk would reduce delay and improve signal coordination along Foothill Road. <br /> <br />Foothill Road at Muirwood Drive / Serenity Terrace <br />Mitigation Widen Foothill Road to 4 lanes <br />The 1996 General Plan includes the widening of Foothill Road to 4 lanes between Stoneridge Drive and <br />Muirwood Drive South. The Year 2025 scenarios that include some of the 1996 General Plan road <br />widenings assume that there are two continuous north and southbound lanes on Foothill Road <br />approaching this intersection. <br /> <br />Foothill Road at Muirwood Drive South <br />Mitigation - Widen southbound Foothill Road to 2 lanes <br />The 1996 General Plan includes the widening of Foothill Road to 4 lanes between Stoneridge Drive and <br />Muirwood Drive South. The Year 2025 scenarios that include some of the 1996 General Plan road <br />widenings assume that there are two continuous southbound lanes on Foothill Road approaching this <br />intersection. <br /> <br />Foothill Road at Stoneridge Drive / Laurel Creek Drive <br />Mitigation - Widerffrestripe Foothill Road for 3 southbound lanes and upgrade traffic signal to create a <br />third southbound left turn lane. <br />The 1996 General Plan assumes three lanes southbound on Foothill Road between I-580 and Stoneridge <br />Drive. The Year 2025 scenarios that include some of the 1996 General Plan road widenings assume <br />that there are three continuous southbound lanes on Foothill Road approaching this intersection. <br /> <br /> <br />
