delay for Pleasanton residents, and would also help to reduce traffic diversion onto Black Avenue and <br />Del Valle Parkway. <br /> <br />Valley Avenue at Hansen Drive <br />Mitigation - Construct new traffic signal <br />In all Year 2025 scenarios, the flow of traffic along Valley Avenue exceeds the capacity of the stop sign <br />controls at this intersection, resulting in LOS F conditions on Valley Avenue. Stop sign controls have <br />far less capacity than traffic signal control. This was recently demonstrated at Vineyard Avenue at <br />Montevino Drive where traffic backups were eliminated when the signal replaced the previous 4-way <br />stop. Installing a traffic signal at this intersection would improve pedestrian safety, while reducing <br />delay for Pleasanton residents. The 1996 General Plan shows this intersection as a future traffic signal <br />location. <br /> <br />Valley Avenue at Koll Center Parkway (Iq) <br />Mitigation - Striping change and traffic signal upgrade <br />The existing signal operations for Kol! Center Parkway are very inefficient and reduce green time along <br />Valley Avenue. Restriping the eastbound and westbound approaches to allow east/west traffic to flow <br />concurrently would reduce overall delay at the intersection, especially for residents along Valley <br />Avenue. <br /> <br />Valley Avenue at Koll Center Parkway (S) <br />Mitigation - Construct new traffic signal <br />In all Year 2025 scenarios, the flow of traffic along Valley Avenue becomes so continuous, that not <br />enough gaps are available for drivers on Koll Center Parkway to turn left or continue straight through <br />the intersection. The extreme delay on Koll Center Parkway (up to 10 minute delays) creates LOS D <br />conditions at the intersection overall and reduces traffic safety, installing a traffic signal at this <br />intersection would improve traffic and pedestrian safety, however it would increase stops and delay <br />along Valley Avenue. Safety could be improved and delay reduced by restricting Koll Center Parkway <br />(south) drivers to right turns only during the morning and evening perk hours. However, staff <br />anticipates opposition from local businesses and the fairgrounds to such restrictions. <br /> <br />Valley Avenue at Paseo Santa Cruz (N) <br />Mitigation - Construct new traffic signal <br />In all Year 2025 scenarios, the flow of traffic along Valley Avenue exceeds the capacity of the stop sign <br />controls at this intersection, resulting in LOS F conditions on Valley Avenue.
