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).

Trip Generation rates for the proposed land uses were extracted from
the "1981 Update Study of Vehicular Traffic Generation Characteristics
Within Palm Beach County". Generation rates and resultant vehicle
trips for respective land uses are contained in TABLE II. It was
assumed that 25% of the total trips attracted to the commercial devel-
opment would be produced by individuals from the proposed project
(internal-internal trips).

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". 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.

PROJECT CATEGORY
The selection of a project category requires that exi~ting AP.DT's,
50% background traffic and the anticipated project traffic be com-
piled for each link within the project's radius of development
influence. 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
