geographical distribution of the congregation of church members consists of I I% of the congregation living on the north-western side of Interstate 205 and south of Grant Line Road, 33% of the congregation living on the south-eastern side of Interstate 205 and north of Eleventh Street, and 56% of the congregation living south of Eleventh Street. TRIP GENERATION A forecast of the traffic volumes expected to be generated by the project site were calculated based upon information contained in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) publication Trip Generation 5th Edition and February 1995 Update to the 5th Edition. Table 3 contains a listing of the applicable trip _ generation rates. Table 4 contains the expected trip generation volumes for weekday daily and peak hour (AM and PM) periods, as well as Sunday daily and project peak hour periods. The project's Sunday peak-hour of trip generation is expected to occur between 9:00 A.M. and 1:00 P.M. (Source: ITE Trip .. Generation, Fifth Edition.) For the study intersections, the "Sunday peak hour of traffic" is expected to occur between 10:00 A.M. and 11:00 A.M. For worst-case analysis, the Sunday peak hour of background traffic and Sunday peak hour of project trip generation were assumed to occur concurrently between 10:00 A.M. and 11:00 A.M.

For modeling worst-case impacts at the project's driveway intersections with Muddle Road, a 75%parking oc=;p= .vas assumed during the project's Sunday peak hour, resulting in 225 trips entering and 225 trips tearing the project during the Sunday peak hour. This rate (although higher than the ITE recommended rate) was applied for a conservative analysis. TRIP DISTRIBUTION AND ASSIGNMENT The assignment of project related traffic to the adjacent roadway system was based upon the _ distribution of existing church congregation, existing travel patterns, and the geographical location of the proposed project (in relation to the existing roadway system). Based upon discussions with the applicant, the directional trip distribution presented in Figure 4A was assumed for the project's Sunday peak hour of trip generation. The trip distribution presented in Figure 4A was also assumed acceptable for weekday AM and PM peak hour periods. Trinity Baptist Church Project Page 9 Traffic Study
