INTRODUCTION A Wal*Mart Supercenter is proposed to be located west of Winchester Park Boulevard between Boynton Beach Boulevard and, Old Boynton Road in Boynton Beach, Florida. The proposed site plan consists of 220,000 square feet of general commercial retail. Kimley-Hom and Associates, Inc. was retained to prepare a traffic impact analysis for the project. This document presents the methodology used and the findings of these analyses. The traffic impact analysis was conducted in accordance with the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County. The analysis used current data available from Palm Beach County. The buildout year for the proposed development is 2000. 04715379.()399 Page I ~=n Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc, INVENTORY AND PLANNING DA TA Inventory The data used in this analysis were obtained from Palm Beach County. They included: . 1998 24-hour traffic volumes . 1997 and 1998 intersection turning movement counts . Roadway geometrics . Approved development traffic . Historic count data The location of the site is shown in Figure I. Planning Data Access to the development will be provided through two full access driveways on Winchester Park Boulevard and one full access driveway on Old Boynton Road. The two driveways on Winchester Park Boulevard are located at existing median openings. 04715379.()399 Page 2 HYPOLUXO RD. ) rJ' .......... d ..

PROJECT TRAFFIC Traffic Generation The daily traffic generation for the development was based on trip generation rates published by Palm Beach County. Peak hour characteristics were based on information published in the Institute of Transportation Engineers' Trip Generation Report (6th Edition). Table I presents the proposed potential trip generation for the project site. Pass-by rates published by Palm Beach County were used in the analysis. Internalization was assumed to be zero. Traffic Distribution From a review of the existing and approved development in Palm Beach County and considering the arterial network with its travel time characteristics, the external traffic distribution was calculated. These were summarized by general directions and are depicted below: NORTH SOUTH EAST WEST 30% 30% 15% 25% 04715379-0399 Page 4 ~=n Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc, Traffic Assignment The distributed external trips for the project in 2000 were assigned to the roadways within the radius of influence, both in terms of daily external trips and A.M. and P,M. peak hour volumes. Based on the net impact of the project, it was determined that the maximum radius of development influence for Test I of the traffic performance standards is three (3) miles. The maximum radius of development influence for Test 2 is two (2) miles. 04715379-0399 Page 6 ~=n Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. BACKGROUND TRAFFIC Background traffic is comprised of two components: . Traffic from the unbuilt portions of approved major developments · Historical growth Major projects found in the Palm Beach County spreadsheet <<Approved Development Traffic in West BoyntonlDelray Area" were included in the analysis. Trips from projects with a buildout later than 2000 were calculated through linear interpolation. No other major projects would contribute greater than ten percent (10%) of the level of service standard on any link significantly impacted by the project during its buildout time frame. According to the requirements of the Traffic Performance Standards of Palm Beach County, existing traffic volumes were grown by factors determined by a review of growth data published by Palm Beach County. The total background traffic was determined for each link within the radius of influence by applying the growth rate through the buildout year and adding major project traffic. 04715379.()399 Page 7 ~=~ Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. ASSURED CONSTRUCTION The existing laneage for each link analyzed was identified. A review of the Five- Year Plans of Palm Beach County and FOOT, as well as those improvements committed by the developers of projects in the area: was made to identify pertinent roadway improvements. The following roadway improvement is planned: . Lawrence Road from Boynton Beach Boulevard to Gateway Boulevard Widen to five lanes (construction to commence in FY 2000/200 I) · Lawrence Road from Gateway Boulevard to Hypoluxo Road Widen to five lanes (construction to commence in FY 1998/1999) . Congress Avenue from Miner Road to Hypoluxo Road Widen to six lanes divided (construction to commence in FY 1997/1998) 04715379-0399 Page 8 ~=n Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. LINK EVALUA TION Test 1 A link performance standard evaluation was undertaken for each link considering its total traffic volume and the roadway laneage to be in place in 2000. Project traffic and total traffic for 2000 are shown in Tables 2 and 3 for daily and average peak hour conditions. Figure 2 depicts the roadway links that are significantly impacted on a daily basis by project traffic. As can be seen, two of the roadway links upon which the project has significant impact fail to meet the daily level of service standard through 2000. Table 3 shows that the same two links fail to meet the average peak hour link standard for 2000. Alternate Test 1 The two links that failed to meet the daily and average peak hour standards were then analyzed for peak hour peak season conditions in order to determine if they would meet the Alternate Test I. Table 4 shows the peak hour directional link volumes for these links. As can be seen from Table 4, Boynton Beach Boulevard from Jog Road to El Clair Ranch Road fails the peak hour link level of service standard. For the project to meet Palm Beach County's Traffic Performance Standards, Boynton Beach Boulevard from Jog Road to El Clair Ranch Road will have to be widened to six lanes divided. With this improvement in place, the project will meet the daily level of service standard through 2000. 04715379.()399 Page 9 ~=~ i!~~ "",i.::l ~.. . ~ ~!~ .. hI: ,f,! .. ~ lill ee ....

In addition to the link level of service analysis, intersection critical volume analyses were also conducted for the intersections on Old Boynton Road and are included in the Appendix. Existing intersection volume data was provided by Palm Beach County at the two major intersections. The counts were adjusted to peak season (if necessary) and grown to the 2000 buildout year using the weighted average growth rate of the intersection approaches. The worksheets in the Appendix show the development of total 2000 intersection traffic. The two major intersections were then analyzed for adequate capacity during the A.M. and P.M. peak hours. The critical volume analysis worksheets show that one intersection operates over the standard capacity of 1,400 vehicles. The intersection of Old Boynton Road and Congress A venue exceeds the standard capacity by 10 vehicles during the PM peak hour. The intersection was reanalyzed with a westbound right-turn lane. With this improvement in place, the intersection critical volume will drop below the 1,400 vehicle capacity. The links that fail the daily link test therefore meet Alternate Test I, with a westbound right-turn lane at the intersection of Old Boynton Road and Congress Avenue. Boynton Beach Boulevard from Jog Road to El Clair Ranch Road will meet Test I with the approved proposed expansion to six lanes divided. Test 2 The Model Test 2 indicates a radius of influence of two miles from the site. No roadway segments on the Test 2 failure list lie within the project's two miles of development influence. 04715379-0399 Page 14 ~=~ Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc. DRIVEWA Y CLASSIFICA TION AND TURN LANE REQUIREMENTS Driveway Classification According to the Palm Beach County "Guide Parking Lot and Street Access Design Criteria and Standards", it is necessary to classifY project entrances as minor, intermediate, or major according to the following criteria: 1. Minor - Provides for a maximum average daily traffic of 500. 2. Intermediate - Provides service for a maximum average daily traffic from 501 to 2,000. 3. Major - Provides service for a maximum average daily traffic greater than 2000. Using these criteria, the driveway on Old Boynton Road and the north driveway on Winchester Park Boulevard would be classified as major. The south driveway on Winchester Park Boulevard would be classified as minor. Turn Lane Requirements Figure 3 presents the proposed project AM and PM peak hour total volumes assigned to the project's access driveways. Consideration of these volumes with respect to the Palm Beach County access design standards results in the determination that a right-turn ingress lane will be required at the driveway on Old Boynton Road.

CONCLUSION This traffic impact analysis shows that the proposed Wal*Mart Supercenter development meets Palm Beach County's Traffic Performance Standards with the phasing of the development program to the commencement of the right-turn lane construction at Old Boynton Road and Congress Avenue and the six-lane construction of Boynton Beach Boulevard from Jog Road to El Clair Ranch Road. The development activity of the project should be limited to no more than 5,922 net new daily trips (or approximately 176,000 square feet of building area) prior to commencement of the right-turn lane construction. Worksheets are included in the Appendix which show that the project meets Alternate Test I standards without the intersection improvement at up to 176,000 square feet. Development activity should be limited to no more than 5,183 net new daily trips (or approximately 144,900 square feet of building area) prior to commencement of the Boynton Beach Boulevard construction from Jog Road to El Clair Ranch Road. No phasing of development activity is necessary for the committed improvements on Lawrence Road from Boynton Beach Boulevard to Gateway Boulevard and Congress Avenue from Miner Road to Hypoluxo Road as these links would meet Test I standards without the improvements. However, development activity should be limited to no more than 3,575 daily trips (or approximately 83,000 square feet of building area) prior to commencement of the Lawrence Road construction from Gateway Boulevard to Hypoluxo Road. 04715379-0399 Page 17 ~=~ Kimley-Horn and Associates, Inc.
