TJKM VISION THAT MOVES YOUR COMMUNITY These four potential access locations were each analyzed as either right in / right out driveways , right in only, right out only or no access point in various combinations . The first three access points do not include any possibility of a median break; the intersection of Plaza Street and Mountain House Parkway does include a median break; all scenarios analyzed assumed this intersection would be signalized . The ultimate buildout of the area includes Mtn . House Parkway as a four lane divided arterial with a median and left and right turn lanes . Byron Road is anticipated to be a six lane divided roadway with double right turn lanes and double left turn lanes in the eastbound direction along the retail frontage . It also includes a double westbound left turn lane and a westbound right turn lane . Preferred Plan The attached preferred plan represents TJKM ' s recommendations for access to the proposed retail center. The preferred plan has the following elements : Intersection of Byron Road and B Street This is an important driveway for the future Mountain House Town Center . It will serve a variety of land uses including office , retail and community services . TJKM recommends that this access point be constructed as a full right in / right out facility . This should be a street -type intersection , not a driveway . The intersection should be of the highest design considering the speeds and volumes of Byron Road traffic . A 300 foot long right turn lane is recommended . The shopping center layout provides an important connection from B Street to the interior of the center. An acceleration lane at the intersection with Byron Road is not recommended . Byron Road Driveway at DeAnza Boulevard Alignment This driveway will provide direct access from eastbound Byron Road directly into the retail center. In TJKM ' s opinion , this driveway is too close to the Mountain House intersection to allow exits onto Byron Road . The most problematic movement if right outs were permitted would be those motorists wanting to make a left - or U - turn from the eastbound lanes at the Mountain House Parkway signalized intersection , requiring weaving across three lanes of traffic in about 200 feet . However, a right turn movement from the eastbound lanes into the shopping center parking lot can be designed to enable safe maneuvering . A separate right turn lane is proposed with an elongated entrance into the parking lot . TJKM recommends the installation of stop signs just inside the parking lot to minimize confusion and optimize safety . This driveway is important to the operation of the shopping center as it enhances the traffic flow into the center from eastbound Byron Road .
