In that case, the trips generated by these lots <br />(approximately one per lot during the peak hour) might use Lois Lane. <br />Based on an estimated 70 residential lots along Lois Lane, the estimated peak <br />hour traffic volume of Lois Lane is 70 vehicles [per ITE]. Adding five vehicles to <br />the existing 70 vehicles would result in a 7% increase in peak hour traffic." <br />In addition, as a percentage of site - generated traffic, five trips equates to at most 4.1%. <br />Offices: Hibbing • Minnetonka • Ham Lake • Twin Ports <br />(952) 933 -0972 • 6110 Blue Circle Drive • Suite 100 • Minnetonka, MN 55343 • FAX (952) 933-1153 <br />Equal Opportunity Employer <br />
