Boulevard. No construction traffic of any type may use Valley Avenue and/or Bernal Avenue south of Nevada Court for any reason. Stoneridge Drive Extension At its May 1ST meeting, the City Council voted unanimously to maintain the Stoneridge Drive extension in the Circulation Element of the Pleasanton General Plan. The City Council's decision was based on its review of the traffic model results which showed that at the General Plan build-out, the Stoneridge Drive extension would result in a redistribution of traffic flow and some easing of congestion on heavily traveled routes including Stanley Boulevard. For example, with the Stoneridge Drive extension, build- out of the Preferred General Plan resulted in a PM volume of 4,950 trips on Stanley Boulevard compared to 5,220 trips without the extension. Bicycle Lanes As conditioned, bicycle lanes are required to be installed in the street rights-of-way along the Bernal Avenue and the Stanley Boulevard project frontages with the improvements to the Stanley Boulevard/Valley Avenue/Bernal Avenue intersection. Adding the bike lane to Stanley Boulevard will require relocating the existing P.G. & E. power pole. The power pole is presently 50 feet from the median island in Stanley Boulevard. Four, 12-foot wide vehicle lanes and one, 6-foot wide bicycle lane, however, require 54 feet. Hence, the pole must be moved to accommodate the recommended street widening in a manner that would provide for the efficient function of the through, merge, and bike lanes on the east leg of this intersection. Project Access Two points of access will be provided to the site from Bernal Avenue: • A signalized driveway providing left-/right-turn access from/to Bernal Avenue will be located opposite Utah Street. • Aright-turn only driveway to Bernal Avenue will be located midway between Utah Street and Nevada Court. Two points of access will be provided to the site from Stanley Boulevard: • Right-turn ingress/egress only to/from Stanley Boulevard will be located midway between Bernal Avenue and the easternmost property line. • Right-turn ingress/egress and left-turn only ingress from Stanley Boulevard into the site will be provided at the easternmost project driveway. The left-turn from Stanley Boulevard will require a median island opening. Page 12 of 22
