We will then work with the City Staff to determine the optimal allocation of general- <br />versus medical-office uses to minimize impacts to the site's intersections with adjacent roads. <br />Once the project trip generation is finalized, the trips will be assigned to the road network using <br />the directions of approach and departure. <br />TASK 4 -BASELINE TRAFFIC FORECASTS <br />It is our understanding that the forecasts for the near-term and cumulative condition will be <br />developed using the City's travel demand model. Dowling Associates will provide to Fehr & <br />Peers AM and PM peak hour link- and intersection-level forecasts for the near-term and <br />cumulative without and with project forecasts, in addition to model output for the Existing (2008) <br />base year condition. We will review the model output to check reasonableness of the forecasts, <br />and the assumed roadway network in the vicinity of the site. This scope assumes we will receive <br />.dbf turns files and loaded network files. <br />Using the traffic forecasts, Fehr & Peers will Furness the volumes to develop peak hour <br />intersection turning movement forecasts. The forecasts will be adjusted to ensure volumes <br />balance between adjacent intersections. <br />Documentation: Fehr & Peers will document the peak hour intersection turning movement <br />forecast and Furness procedures in a technical memorandum for the City to review. After their <br />review and acceptance, the subsequent task "Impact Analysis" will occur. <br />TASK 5 -IMPACT ANALYSIS <br />The intersection peak hour level of service at each study intersection will be calculated using the <br />2000 Highway Capacity Manual method. Roundabout operations will be evaluated using <br />aaSIDRA. The mainline segment of I-680 at Bernal Avenue will also be evaluated using the 2000 <br />Highway Capacity Manual method. For four (4) intersections closest to the project site, the <br />potential for vehicle queue spillback from the available vehicle storage will be evaluated using the <br />Synchro/SimTraffic software. <br />The impact analysis will be conducted for the following scenarios: <br />Scenario 1: Existing Conditions -Existing volumes obtained from traffic counts and the existing <br />roadway system configuration. <br />Scenario 2: Near-Term No Project Conditions -Existing volumes plus traffic estimates for <br />approved and pending developments and/or traffic increases due to regional growth (using the <br />City of Pleasanton Travel Demand Model) and transportation system improvements anticipated to <br />be completed, including improvements that are conditioned on approved development projects. <br />The horizon year for this analysis will be confirmed with City staff. <br />Scenario 3: Near-Term Project Conditions -Traffic volumes from Scenario 2 plus traffic <br />estimated for the project. The roadway system will be the same as Scenario 2 plus additions <br />proposed by the project. <br />Scope of Work Page 2 - 5 <br />
