DRAFT 3. Circulation Element <br />The model routes traffic as necessary to produce "existing" and "buildout" traffic volumes based on <br />travel times. Using the land development present in Pleasanton in 2006, the model was calibrated such <br />that the model's traffic volumes and distribution projections for the "existing" conditions closely <br />matched the actual traffic counts collected in the spring of 2006. Based on the assumption that the <br />model then closer reflects the city's real-life roadway network traffic controls, and local and regional <br />traffic origins and destinations, the model is able to simulate changing traffic conditions and travel <br />patterns as land development adds additional traffic to the roadway network and as various network <br />improvements are made to the transportation infrastructure A detailed description of the modeling <br />process, the traffic network,, traffic generation rates, and the land-use inputs is included in the Baseline <br />Traffic Report. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />p~ <br />Circulation Element 012908 redline .~-20 City Council O1 29 08 <br />
