''%% • Relocate the southbound stop bar ' pavement marking on Woodland � Avenue north of Robin Avenue to improve sightlines. Transportation Recommendations — Woodland/Robin Intersection • Install a flashing LED stop sign for westbound Robin Avenue (similar to right). • Install a flashing LED stop ahead sign for westbound Robin Avenue. r • Add signage on Woodland Avenue to provide direction to 1-5. • Modify pavement marking arrows in Woodland Avenue near Myrtle Street to better explain allowable turn i movements. ' ' " Transportation Recommendations — Arney Lane/Stevens Street Extensions • Design Arney Lane/Steven Street extensions to encourage slower travel speeds to make the roads less desirable for traffic from the outlet center • Current plans include elements to slow traffic: — On-street parking — All-way stop control at Steven/Arney/Site Access — Roadway curvature designed for 25 mph — Street trees Conclusion • Proposed development is appropriate for the site context and is consistent with the City's long-term vision spelled out in the Comprehensive Plan • Project meets approval standards as outlined in the staff report • City and ODOT staff have concurred with traffic analysis • Applicant respectfully requests the City Council's approval Proposed Access Points Proposed access points �,, l�rbar� �rt�with �auna�aryr C74�,'fj�sr Arney Rd iDIR-2�19� Planning Commission's Preferred Access Points lJrban Grovwrlth Boundary Arney Ln t e Commission's preferred access points Pak � /����� � 'UhNoodburn�Pr��emwum �urlm hram � `�' r✓ Clutlets I, �r Sh�st > � Amey Rd Q 01�-2"19� Analysis Time Periods • Consistent and frequent — Same time of day — Many days of the year • Correspond with peak site activity — Morning and evening commute times for housing — Afternoon/evening for storage • Selected time periods — AM peak hour (generally between 7 :00 and 9 :00 AM) — PM peak hour (generally between 4:00 and 6:00 PM) Existing Traffic Counts • Data collection — Thursday, November 17, 2016 — Morning (7 :00 to 9 :00 AM ) — Evening (4:00 to 6 :00 PM ) • Peak hours — 7 :00 to 8:00 AM — 4:45 to 5 :45 PM • Seasonal adjustment for state highways 2018 Post- Development Traffic • Site-generated traffic added to network • Site traffic added to pre-development condition Follow- UpAnalysis • Additional data collected at the Woodland Avenue/Robin Avenue intersection September 9-13, 2017 • Traffic signal warrants were evaluated following industry guidelines* with the following observations : — No signal warrants are met under existing conditions on either an average weekday or a weekend day — No signal warrants are met for an average weekday for any conditions (existing, pre-development, or post-development) — Warrants are met on both weekend days under both pre-development and post-development conditions * Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) Follow- UpAnalysis Conclusions • Industry guidance suggests that "since vehicular delay and frequency of some types of crashes are greater under traffic signal control than under STOP sign control, consideration should be given to providing alternatives to traffic control signals even if one or more of the signal warrants has been satisfied ." • Therefore, a traffic signal is not recommended because warrants are only met on weekends, not on weekdays. — Traffic signal could add delay for drivers on weekdays & off-peak times — Traffic signal would incur additional maintenance costs • Instead, actions should be pursued that can improve the safety and operations of the all-way stop controlled intersection
