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