#88601 <br /> Transportation Impact Report <br /> April. 11, 1986 <br /> Page Eight <br /> 070 <br /> Appendix "A" <br /> Time April 4. 1986 <br /> 7:00 - 7:30 AM 7 <br /> 7:30 - 8:00 AM 3 <br /> 8:00 - 8:30 AM 6 <br /> 8:30 - 9:00 AM 3 <br /> 4:00 - 4:30 PM 7 <br /> 4:30 - 5:00 PM 8 <br /> 5:00 - 5:30 PM 1 <br /> 5:30 - 6:00 PM 4 <br /> Appendix "B" <br /> OgeratjrnQ Conditions for Levels of Service: <br /> Level of Service A: This is a condition of free flow,. <br /> accompanied by low volumes and high speeds. <br /> Level of Service B: This occurs in the zone of stable flow, <br /> with operating speeds beginning to be restricted somewhat by <br /> traffic conditions. <br /> Level of Service C: This is still in the zone of stable flow, <br /> but speeds and maneuverability are more closely controlled by <br /> the higher volumes. <br /> Level of Service D: This level of service approaches unstable <br /> flow, with tolerable operating speeds being maintained, though <br /> considerably affected by changes in operating conditions. <br /> Level of Service E: This cannot be described by speed alone, <br /> but represents operations at lower operating speeds, typically, <br /> but not always, in the neighborhood of 30 miles per hour, with <br /> volumes at or near capacity of the highway. <br /> Level of Service F: This describes a forced-flow operation at <br /> low speeds, where volumes are below capacity. In the extreme, <br /> both speed and volume can drop to zero. <br />
