CONCURRENCY TRAFFIC IMPACT ANALYSIS
Introduction
Pinder Troutman Consulting, Inc. has been retained to conduct a traffic impact analysis for a
proposed 98 multi family DUs in the City of Boynton Beach. The purpose of this study is to
determine if the proposed development meets the requirements of Article 15, Traffic Performance
Standards, of the Palm Beach County Unified Land Development Code (ULDC).
Site Data
The site is located on the west side of Congress Avenue as shown on Exhibit 1. Access to the
proposed project is via local roadway connections to Congress Avenue. Year 2004 conditions were
examined for this analysis.
Existing (2001) T rafflc Conditions
Exhibit 2 provides the 2001 annual average daily lraffic (MDT) volumes for the surrounding roadway
network as compiled by the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) of Palm Beach County.
Peak hour traffic volumes were determined by applying a 'K' factor of 9.3% to the MDT volumes.
These volumes are also shown on Exhibit 2 along with roadway lanes, levels of service (LOS) and the
adopted LOS D service volumes.
Project T rafflc
Trip Generation
The daily trip generation rate used for this project was from Section 10.8, Fair Share Road
Impact Fees, of the Palm Beach County ULDC. The Institute of Transportation Engineers
OTE), Trip Generation, 6th Edition was the source of the peak hour trip generation rates.
Exhibits 3 provides the daily, AM and PM peak hour trip generation data for the proposed
development. For Traffic Performance Standards purposes, based on the net new external
Ref>""t 03.1.1 '.29-03
daily trip generation of 686, the Test 1 radius of development influence is one (1) mile. The
Test 2 radius of development influence is one-half ('h) mile.
Trip Distribution and Assignment
A directional distribution was developed based on review of land use patterns and existing
travel patterns. Exhibit 4 shows the assignment of daily and peak hour project traffic as well
as the project impact percentage (% of daily adopted service volume).
Future T rafflc Conditions
Roadway Improvements
The Fiscal Year 2003-2007 Transportation Improvement Program from the MPO of Palm
Beach County and the Palm Beach County Five Year Road Program were reviewed to
determine if any roadways within the study area are scheduled to be improved. There are
no scheduled improvements within the study area.
Background T rafflc
Historic growth trends and Major Project traffic must be analyzed in the projection of future
background traffic volumes. Historic growth data is provided on Exhibit 5 for the surrounding
roadway links. Major Project data, compiled by Palm Beach County, was reviewed. No
Major projects are projected to have a 10% impact on the study area roadways within the
analysis time frame of the proposed development. Background growth projections based on
historic data account for traffic associated with the committed developments in the area.
T rafflc Performance Standards Analysis
Test 1 (Link Test)
This first test of the Traffic Performance Standards examines if any roadway links required to
be analyzed are projected to operate below adopted level of service standards. Roadway
links within one-half mile and those outside one-half mile with a project impact greater than
1% of the LOS D are required to be analyzed. Exhibit 6 shows future daily, AM and PM peak
hour traffic conditions for the analyzed roadway links. All analyzed roadway links are
RL'fXJrt 03 13 1 29 03
2
projected to operate above the adopted Test 1 level of service standards, therefore, the
requirements of Test 1 are met.
Test 2 (Model Test)
The second test examines traffic conditions based on model projections that are developed
and maintained by Palm Beach County. No roadway links within one-half ('/2) mile are Test
2 deficiencies; therefore, the requirements of Test 2 are met.
Intersection Analysis
Major intersections for which a proposed development adds more than 10% of the total
traffic on any link connecting a major intersection are required to be analyzed. No major
intersections meet this requirement based on the proposed development's impact.
Driveway Volumes
AM and PM peak hour project driveway volumes are provided on Exhibit 7.
Conclusions
This analysis shows that the proposed development meets all of the requirements of the Traffic
Performance Standards of Palm Beach County.
