4 I EXECUTIVE SUMMARY (Continued) Intersection of SR 132 and Vemalis Road (Connector to SR 33) ►. The analyses indicate that the intersection is currently operating at a level of service F. The existing substandard level of service is primarily a result of the difficulty experienced by vehicles attempting to tum left across traffic on SR 132. The proposed haul routes do not propose left turns at the �- intersection. Haul Route 1 will result only in additional through movements on SR 132 and Haul Route 3 will result only in right-turn movements and through movements at the intersection. Therefore,Project-specific significant impacts are not identified. Intersection of Welty Road and SR 132 The analyses indicate that the intersection is currently operating at a level of service F. The existing L. substandard level of service is primarily a result of the difficulty experienced by vehicles attempting to tum left across traffic on SR 132. Haul Route 1 will result only in additional through movements on SR 132 and Haul Route 3 will result only in right-turn movements and through movements at the �.. intersection. 'Therefore,Project-specific significant impacts are not identified. Intersection of McCracken Road and SR 132 The analyses indicate that the intersection is currently operating at a level of service F. The existing substandard level of service is primarily a result of the difficulty experienced by vehicles attempting to turn left or proceed through across traffic on SR 132. The proposed Project will result only in additional through movements on SR 132. Therefore, Project-specific significant impacts are not identified. Intersection of Bird Road and Blewett Road r.. The analyses indicate that the intersection is currently operating at acceptable levels of service. However, the near-term Haul Route 1 analyses indicate that a combination of the proposed Project and the pending and approved projects will result in a level of service F during peak periods at the intersection. The intersection is expected to operate at a level of service E in the year 2025 even without the 6. proposed Project. Haul Route I would exacerbate the cumulative year 2025 impacts to a level of service F. To mitigate the impacts created by Haul Route 1 on opening day, a southbound left-tum lane is required. L It is anticipated that traffic signal warrants will be satisfied based on the year 2025 cumulative traffic volume forecasts. To mitigate the cumulative 2025 impacts of Haul Route 1, traffic signals may be installed in the future with a separate southbound left-tum lane and protected left-tum phasing. - Traffic signals should not be installed until such time as the observed traffic volumes indicate signals ` are warranted. The County should establish a fair-share or a fee program to fund the potential signal to ensure that it will be constructed, or the Project shall be conditioned to install the signals after warrants are satisfied. Haul Route 3 does not significantly impact the intersection. L L
