Another way to look at the change is to compare volumes for the Preferred Land Use Plan scenario on Stoneridge Drive west of EI Charro and on Valley Avenue west of Busch Road. Without the Stoneridge Drive extension, Valley Avenue carries more than three and a half times as much traffic as Stoneridge Drive in the p.m. (3,890 trips vs. 1,060 trips); with the Stoneridge Drive extension, the two streets carry approximately similar volumes (3,340 vs. 3,370). Changes in traffic flow patterns for the Preferred Land Use Plan are summarized in Attachments 15 and 16. The a.m. flow map shows increases in volume on Stoneridge Drive moving into the Hacienda Business Park. These vehicles were previously using EI Charro Road, Busch Road, Valley Avenue, Santa Rita, and Hacienda Drive. The p.m. flow map shows an increase in 1-680 northbound freeway traffic. These vehicles were previously entering Pleasanton at Sunol Boulevard. The most significant increase in traffic comes from the Hacienda Business Park where vehicles are now using West Las Positas and Stoneridge Drive instead of Hacienda Drive, Santa Rita Road, Valley Avenue, Busch Road Stanley Boulevard and EI Charro Road. The p.m. flow map appears to significantly reduce or shift the cut-through traffic by showing a decrease in traffic on Sunol Boulevard and an increase on 1-680 and Stoneridge Drive. These flow maps, however, do not show a complete picture regarding cut-through traffic. The map shows the change in traffic flow, but the map does not clearly indicate the volume beginning and ending outside of Pleasanton. Many of these trips along the red and green lines start or end (or both start and end) within Page 8 of 10
