The Home Depot volumes that use Bernal Avenue will require <br />longer green times than are currently programmed at the intersection. The retiming of this inter- <br />section improves the LOS to "D". <br />The traffic study also identifies that the Bernal Avenue/Valley Avenue and the Sunol Boule- <br />vard/I-680 Northbound Ramps will operate at LOS "E" with/without the project. The following <br />table describes the traffic that the Home Depot project will add to these intersections and the <br />added delay: <br />Table 4: Home Depot's Impacts to the BernaWalley and the Sunol/I-680 NB Intersections <br />__ - <br />Added ~ Added AM de- ~ Added r Added PM De- <br />AM Trips lay (seconds) PM Trips lay (seconds) <br />- ___ __ -- <br />Bernal Avenue a~ Valley Avenue 8 0.

For the existing plus approved scenario, "Table 3 -Intersection Levels Of Service" <br />shows the Stanley Boulevard/Valley Avenue/Bernal Avenue intersection without the project op- <br />erating at Levels-of-Service (LOS) "F" (106.8 seconds delay) and "B" (68.6 seconds delay) for <br />the a.m./p.m. peak hours. With the project, the level of service remains the same, but the delay <br />times increase to 111.2 seconds delay in the a.m. peak hour and 74.5 seconds delay in the p.n. <br />peak hour. <br />PCUP-165/PDR-529/PMOD-81-25-7M Page 17 of 36 Decemfier 13, 2006 <br />
