Pock Lane Residential Traffic Impact Study Carpenter Road is a two-lane, east-west minor collector located to the south of the project site. It extends from Airport Way in the west to SR-99 Frontage Road.The posted speed limit is 25 mph. In the immediate project vicinity, there is insufficient shoulder width to permit parking. Togninali Lane is a two lane, east-west minor collector located to the south of the project site. It connects Pock Lane to SR-99 Frontage Road. The posted speed limit is 25 mph, and parking is generally permitted. Boeing Way is a generally two lane, east-west minor collector located to the south of the project, primarily serving industrial uses. The posted speed limit on Boeing Way is 25 mph. Loomis Road is a short, two-lane east-west local street that extends from D Street to Pock Lane, and then from the east edge of the 2706 Pock Lane project site to SR-99 Frontage Road.The posted speed limit is 25 mph on both portions of Loomis Road, and parking is permitted where there is adequate shoulder width. Loomis Road provides direct access to both 2706 Pock Lane and the northern portion of 3009 Pock Lane. 3.2 EXISTING PEDESTRIAN FACILITIES Walkability is defined as the ability to travel easily and safely between various origins and destinations without having to rely on automobiles or other motorized travel.The ideal "walkable"community includes wide sidewalks, a mix of land uses such as residential, employment, and shopping opportunities,a limited number of conflict points with vehicle traffic,and easy access to transit facilities and services. Pedestrian facilities consist of crosswalks, sidewalks, pedestrian signals, and off-street paths, which provide safe and convenient routes for pedestrians to access the destinations such as institutions, businesses, public transportation, and recreation facilities. In the immediate project vicinity, limited sidewalks are provided, particularly on Pock Lane south of 8th Street and north of Togninali Lane. Many of the parcels fronting this portion of Pock Lane are undeveloped or consist of scattered individual homes among agricultural uses. West of Pock Lane, the neighborhoods along B Street and D Street provide sidewalks primarily on these streets and on the streets connecting them. Most other blocks in the project vicinity lack sidewalks. There are frequent crosswalks along both B Street and D Street, including school crosswalks near the schools located at the northeast and southeast corners of D Street & 11th Avenue. The existing pedestrian facilities in the study area are shown in Figure 3. Substantial sidewalks gaps are also noted. 4J.KM Page 113
