Jan - 10 . 2006 2 :24PM CA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION No .4692 P. 3/4 C) Ms. Allen January 9, 2006 Page 2 following web address: bttp://www.dot.ca.gov/hq/tpp/planning_tools/tools.httn. Minimum contents of the TIS are listed in Appendix "A" of the TIS guide. All State owned signalized intersections affected by this project should be analyzed using the intersecting lane vehicle (7LV) procedure from the Department's Highway Design Manual,Topic 406,page 400-21. • The Department endeavors to maintain a target level of service (LOS) at the transition between LOS C and LOS D on State highway facilities, including intersections (see Appendix"C-3"of the TIS guide). If an intersection is currently below LOS "C," any increase in delay from project-generated traffic should be analyzed and mitigated. The LOS for wa State operating hi facilities is based upon measures of P � highway effectiveness (MOE) (see Appendix "C-2"of the Guide). If an existing State highway facility is operating at less than this target LOS, the existing MOE should be maintained. • To avoid delay during the Dcparhncnt's review of the TIS, please provide in an electronic format the traffic microsimulation software files (both input and output) that were used to develop the TIS. General Comments • An Encroachment Permit will be required for work(if any) done within the Department's right of way. This work is subject to the California Environmental Quality Act. Therefore, additional biological, archaeological, or other environmental studies may be required as part of the encroachment permits application. A qualified professional must conduct any such studies undertaken to satisfy the Department's environmental review responsibilities. Ground disturbing activities to the site prior to completion and/or approval of required environmental documents may affect the Department's ability to issue a permit for the project. Furthermore, if engineering plans or drawings will be part of your permit application, they should be prepared in standard units. • All roadway features (for example signs,pavement delineation,roadway surface ct cetera) within Department right of way must be protected or maintained in a temporary condition and restored. • To avoid delay during the Department's review of the TIS,please provide in an electronic format the traffic microsimulation software files (both input and output) that were used to develop the TIS.
