J; ~ / TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS for A Portion of Sec. 18-45-43 INTRODUCTION 'l'his report was prepared to satisfy the requirements of ORDINANCE 81-6 of the Board of County Commissioners of Palm Beach County, Florida. The extent to which the Traffic Impact Study was conducted was dependent upon the total number of trips generated by the pro- posed development and the resultant category (as defined by ORDINANCE 81-6) in which the project falls. Initially, trip generation, trip distribution and traffic assignment techniques were employed to enable a determination of project cat- egory. These techniques are described as follows: I. TRIP GENERATION - determination of the number of average annual daily vehicle trips produced by the project. 2. TRIP DISTRIBUTION - dispersion of the generated average annual daily trips between zones of origin and their respective zones of destination. 3. TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT - allocation of the vehicle trips created by the trip distribution processes to the Thoroughfare Plan of the Comprehensive Plan of Palm Beach County. PLANNING DATA The proposed project encompasses the Northeast one-quarter of Section 18, less the East 50.00 feet thereof and right-of-way for L.W.D.D. Canals L-20 and L-21, together with the Northeast one-quarter of the Northeast one-quarter of said Section 18 less the right-of-way for L.W.D.D. Canal L-20 and contains approximately 154.6 acres. Land use information for the Traffic Impact Analysis was based upon the Site Plan developed for the project by Gee and Jenson and is sum- marized below in TABLE I. The project will have entrances on Congress Avenue (directly opposite the entrance roadway to DOS LAGOS) and on Miner Road (which will form the northern boundary of the project).

It was assumed that 50% of the 1981 AADT's entered the cordon area and 50% exited.the cordon area. The percentage that each cordon station represented of total number of trips in 1981 was used to determine the respective number of project- generated trips originating at or destined for each cordon station. Each cordon station was located at a distance of 5 miles from the proposed project. The only fallacy with regard to using this methodology is that the trip distribution represents an over-estimation, i.e., all trips are assumed to enter and exit at the cordon line (no trips are dis- sipated within the cordon area). The results of the cordon study are contained in TABLE III. TRAFFIC ASSIGNMENT The Traffic Assignment process distributed the given set of trip interchanges (see TABLE III) to the thoroughfare system (appearing in FIGURE 1) for each link of the thoroughfare system within the pro- ject's radius of development influence (5 miles). Section 1, Subsection 4C of ORDINANCE 81-6 of the Board of county Commissioners of Palm Beach County states that "any petition for a zoning change, set forth in Paragraph 3 herein, for a project that generates more than three percent (3%) of the average, annual daily traffic at Level of Service 'c' on the roadway links directly accessed by the project is deemed to have a significant effect on the level of service for the major thoroughfare in the project area for the pur- pose of this Ordinance. All petitions that fall within this category shall contain a Traffic Impact Study as set forth in Subsection 'D' herein". Inspection of TABLE IV sWws that the anticipated project traffic enterinq and exiting on Congress Avenue exceeds the 3% LOS 'C' capacity and thereby warrants an Impact Analysis. crossing the external cordon line (see FIGURE 1) was assigned an external cordon station designation (see FIGURE 1) and the number of trips entering and exiting the cordon area was determined from the "1981 Traffic Counts".

TABLE IV provides a tabulation of each in addition to the existing number of lanes en each link and their respective capacities at Levels of Service 'C' and 'D'. TABLE IV reflects assumptions that Miner Road will be constructed along the northern boundary of the project and that Congress Avenue (now being designed by Palm Beach County Engineering Departmer,t) ~lill be constructed as a 4-lane divided highway between Hypoluxo Road and N.E. 22nd Avenue. Investigation of the Transportation Improvement Program (T.I.P.) 1982-1986, prepared by the Metropolitan Planning Organization of Palm Beach County, does not indicate that any of the links contained in TABLE IV will be improved prior to construction of the proposed project. A project sha]l be addressed as a Category 'A' if the project causes a significant impact on major thoroughfare or thoroughfares, within the radius of development influence on which the existing traffic volume exceeds Level of Service 'D'. A project shall be addressed as a Category 'B' if the project causes a significant impact on a major thoroughfare or thoroughfares" within the radius of development influence on wh~ch the total traffic exceeds Level of Service 'D'. A project shall be addressed as a Category 'C' if the project signi- ficantly impacts major thoroughfares where the total traffic on said major thoroughfares does not exceed Level of Service 'D'. The category of each link within the project's radius of development influence is shown in TABLE IV and indicates that the project will be addressed as Category 'A'. yo CAPACITY ANALYSIS Capacity analyses were performed for the two project 2cceS8 roads and their intersections with Congress Avenue. The Miner Road entrance is a lOB' right-of-way (4 lane section) and will only serve this project until such time that the remaining section from the project west to Lawrence Road is constructed. The second access roadway is a 80' right-of-way that will provide 14' of pcvement entering the site and 26' of pavement exiting the site. This road- way was made to align with the entrance roadway to DOS LAGOS on the east side of Congress Avenue. Peak hour turning movements for DOS LAGOS were taken from the traffic " impact study performed by OLSAK AND ASSOCIATES. Peak hour turning movements for the proposed project were calculated by using 10% of the AADT trips that are anticipated to be generated. Peak hour origins and destinations were made to parallel 24-hour trips (see TABLE III), i.e., 58% of the trips originating at the site are destined for cordon stations to the north (42% to the south). It was then assumed that 25% of the total 9,685 trips would make use of Miner Road and 75% would make use of the access roadw2)' opposite DOS LAGOS. Studies conducted by the Institute of Transportation Engineers yielc",a t-.he percentage of trips entering and exiting during the peak hour. This criteria is as follows: A.M. PEAK HOUR 70% of peak hour traffic exits the project 30% of peak hour traffic ente~ the project P.M. PEAK HOUR 40% of peak hour traffic exits the project 60% of peak hour traffic enters the project The calculation of peak hour turning movements were calculated as follows: 9,685 total daily trips x 10% = 968 peak hour trips 25% of 968 = 242 trips using Miner Road 75% of 9'68 = 726 trips using Access Roac A.M. PEAK HOUR 242 trips using Miner Road x 30% ~ 73 trips entering the prcject via Miner Road during the A.M. peak hour~ 242 trips using Miner Road x 70% ~ 169 trips exiting Miner Road from the project during the A.M. peak hour,. 73 trips x 58% = 42 trips from the North 73 trips x 42% = 31 trips from the South 169 trips x 58% = 98 trips to the North 169 trips x 42% ---1.l trips to the South 242 trips 726 trips using Access Road x 30% = 218 trips entering the project via the Access Road during the A.M. peak hour. . 726 trips using Access Road x 70% = 508 trips exiting the Access Road from the project during the A.M. peak hour. . 218 trips x 58% = 127 trips from the North 218 trips x 42% = 91 trips from the South 508 trips x 58% = 295 trips to the Nortr, 508 trips x 42% = 213 trips to the South 726 triJ:s P.M. PEAK HOUR 242 trips using Miner Road x 60% = 145 trips entering the project via Miner Road during the P.M. peak hour 242 trips using Miner Road x 40% = 97 trips exiting Miner Road froTT, the project during the P.M. peak hour. 145 trips x 58% = 84 trips from the North 145 trips x 42% = 61 trips from tht= South 97 trips x 58% = 56 trips to the North 97 trips x 42% = .!L trips to the South 242 trips 726 trips using Access Road x 60% = 436 trips entering the pro- ject via the Access Road during the P.M. peak hour. 726 trips using Access Road x 40% = 290 trips exiting the Access Road from the project during the P.M. peak hour. 436 trips x 58% = 253 trips from the North 436 trips x 42% = 183 trips from the South 290 trips x 58% = 168 trips to the North 290 trips x 42% = 122 trips to the South - 726 trips The results of this distribution appear on FIGURES 2 & 3. and 50% background traffic from TABLE IV were used. 1981 MDT Capacity analyses were performed using the Northwestern Nomographs and determined that the intersection of Miner Road and Congress Avenue will operate at a Level of Service 'A' during both the A.M. and the P.M. peak hours. The intersecti~ of Conqress Avenue and the Acce~s,Road will require signalization as well as exclusive left turn lanes northbound and southbound on Congress Avenue. This ----- intersection will operate at a Level of Service 'C' during both the A.M. and t~e P.M. peak hours. CONCL'TSIONS TABLE IV designates the links on the roadway network that have been defined as Category 'A'. The 55 links appearing in this TABLE represent all links within 5 miles of the proposed project that appear on the Tr,oroughfare Plan of the Comprehensive Plan of Palm Beach County. Military Trail from Lake Worth Road to S.E. 23rd Avenue is withir, the sphere of influence of the proposed project - each link defined as Category 'A'. The traffic generated by.the proposed project on these links is neg1iqble. Military Trail is proposed to be expanded to a 4-lane facility by the Comprehensive Plan. Conqress Avenue from N.W. 2nd Avenue to Lake Ida Road similarly is defined as a Category 'A'. This section of roadway is a 2-lane facility and, like Military Trail, needs to be upgraded to accommodat.e future trips. Hypo1uxo Road between Congress Avenue and Federal Highway is a 2-lane facility and should be widened to a four-lane highway. Hypo1uxo Road (\I w a:: 0:. :J ::l 0 C) :I: u..
