SOUTHERN GATEWAY (THE VILLAGE LLC) 02/19/2018 REVISED TRAFFIC STUDY CITY OF SAINT ANTHONY WSB PROJECT NO. 2170-300 PAGE 25 CONCLUSIONS / RECOMMENDATIONS Based on the analysis documented in this Study, WSB has concluded the following: • The proposed Southern Gateway (revised The Village LLC) development is anticipated to consist of 414 total units (200 multi-family apartment residential units, 61 senior living units and 128 assisted living units). Access from the site will be through driveway connections to Stinson Blvd at 26th Street and to Kenzie Terrace at the existing Lowry Grove entrance. • The proposed Southern Gateway (revised The Village LLC) development is anticipated to generate an additional 2,163 daily trips, 164 AM peak trips and 233 PM peak trips. The new Southern Gateway development generates less than half of what the previous development (The Village LLC) development was anticipated to generate. • Existing traffic operations analysis shows that all intersection and driveways are operating at an overall LOS C or better during both the weekday AM and PM peak hours except the intersection of St Anthony Blvd at New Brighton Blvd which is operating at a LOS D during the PM Peak Hour. There will be some movements that will be operating at LOS D or LOS E. • Intersection traffic operations for the future 2030 no-build condition show that all intersection and driveways will operate at an overall LOS C or better during both the weekday AM and PM with the existing intersection geometrics and traffic control, except the intersection of St Anthony Blvd at New Brighton Blvd which is operating at a LOS D during the PM Peak Hour. With the increase in traffic, some movements will be operating at LOS D or LOS E. • Intersection traffic operations for the future build condition show that, assuming the addition of Southern Gateway development traffic, all intersection and driveways will be operating at an overall LOS C or better in 2019 and 2030 during both the weekday AM and PM peak hours with the existing intersection geometrics and traffic control, except the intersection of St Anthony Blvd at New Brighton Blvd which is operating at a LOS D during the PM Peak Hour. With the increase in traffic, some movements will be operating at LOS D, LOS E or LOS F. • Based on the vehicle queuing analysis for the existing and future traffic conditions for weekday AM and PM peak hours several locations were identified that would exceed existing turn lane storage lengths.
