Shouldn't accurate projected traffic counts reflect the <br />growth beyond the borders of this project? If growth is anticipated beyond <br />the projections, shouldn't there be more road improvements then currently <br />planned? <br />Response. The Traffic Impact Analysis accounts for steady growth of <br />existing, traffic. Any future development plan that impacts these roads will <br />require an additional Traffic Impact Analysis and the developer will be <br />responsible far any additional road improvements. <br />32.Given that as currently sited, this development being automobile <br />~ dependent within the borders of the project, is there a way to project the <br />number of vehicle trips within the development? <br />Response: See Traffic Impact Analysis "Internal Capture Rate" and <br />chapter 3, exhibit 7A, "Walkabi[ity Plan". <br />33. If drive through window service is allowed at food restaurants, can an <br />estimate be made of the number of vehicle trips to these and the average <br />wait time. Can these restaurants be sited to maximize traffic flaw within <br />and without the borders of this project?. <br />Response: See Traffic Impact Analysis. Trip generation takes into account <br />these specific types of uses: Average wait time will depend upon the <br />specific restaurant, and cannot be estimated at this time. Siting will be <br />considered along with internal traffic flow. Specific internal traffic analysis <br />shall be conducted to maximize flow. <br />March.l9, 2008 <br />
