Mr. Lee Elfering, PE Ms. Jessica Jagoe September 10, 2018 Page 9 As shown on Exhibit 4: Overall LOS for the South Driveway/Country Drive intersection is LOS A, and the average delay vehicles will experience waiting for their turn to move is 1.5 seconds. Eastbound left-turns and right-turns from the school site will not take place at this intersection. Thus, the only turns at this driveway will be southbound right-turns and northbound left-turns. Southbound through movements are forecast to operate at LOS A, as are the southbound right- turn movements. The southbound movements are forecast to experience no average vehicle delay and no queuing issues. Northbound left-turn movements are forecast to operate at LOS A, as are the northbound through movements. It is forecast that northbound left-turn movements will experience an average vehicle delay of 0.8 seconds, and northbound through movements will experience an average vehicle delay of 2.8 seconds. Northbound vehicles are forecast to experience queues that are 7 feet long at the 95th percentile. Suggestion Raised by Ms. Jagoe Ms. Jagoe, in a report dated September 6, 2018, suggested the need to develop a Plan B to be prepared for occurrences where all the parents arrive to drop-off and/or pick-up students at the same time. Ms. Jagoe wrote, “While it is not likely that every parent will arrive at the exact same time, consideration has to be given that this could occur (especially in the pick-up afternoon times). Having the younger students being accompanied in and out of the school by a parent does reduce the possibility of vehicles stacking at the building entrance and onto Country Drive. However, this also results in the parents remaining on the property longer Exhibit 4: AM Peak Hour Level of Service South Driveway/Country Drive “T” Intersection Source: Biko Associates, Inc.
