aALLIANT ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT WORKSHEET 11 Robinson Sod Farm PAGE28 • Results of the year 2025 and year 2040 no build traffic operations analysis indicate that all study intersections are expected to operate at overall LOS A during the weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hours. In addition, no side -street delay or queuing issues were observed in traffic simulations. • Results of the year 2025 and year 2040 build traffic operations analysis indicate that all study intersections are expected to operate at overall LOS B or better during the weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hours. In addition, no side -street delay or queuing issues were observed in traffic simulations. • The proposed development is expected to have limited impact on study area traffic operations or the regional transportation system. Therefore, no geometric or traffic control improvements are required from an operations perspective. c. Identify measures that will be taken to minimize or mitigate project related transportation effects. While roadway improvements are not required from a traffic operations or regional transportation system perspective, the following recommendations should be considered: • Dedicated eastbound right -turn and westbound left -turn lanes are proposed at the Main Street/North Access (Century Trail) intersection. A dedicated northbound right -turn lane is proposed at the Sunset Avenue/West Access intersection. A dedicated southbound left -turn lane is proposed at the Sunset Avenue/Robinson Drive intersection. While these turn lanes are not required from an operations perspective, they would be expected to provide a safety benefit in minimizing the potential for rear -end crashes. • Caution should be exercised when placing development signing and/or landscaping near proposed site accesses so as to not create a new sight obstruction. • Turning movements should be reviewed to ensure design vehicles such as school buses and garbage trucks have adequate accommodations to negotiate internal proposed development roadways. • Establish appropriate traffic control at proposed development internal roadway intersections consistent with local jurisdiction policies to minimize driver confusion and the potential for conflicts.
