STATE OF CALIFORNIA—BUSINESS, TRANSPORTATION AND HOUSING AGENCY GEORGE DEUKMEJIAN, Governor DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION P.O. BOX 2048 (1976 E. CHARTER WAY) STOCKTON, CA 95201 '?�y�^ry •0 TDD (209) 94e2W 948-7938 ~" July `'�3, 1989 10-SJ-5-18.0 San Joaquin County BMG2 Enterprises Application Referral/SA-89-45 Mr. Chandler Martin San Joaquin County Planning Division 1810 Hazelton Avenue Stockton, CA 95205 Dear Mr. Martin: This is in response to your Application Referral for the BMG2 Enterprises project. We have reviewed the application and offer the following comments: Traffic impacts resulting from this development will impact Interstate 5 and the interchanges at Roth Road and at Lathrop Road. In order to adequately assess these impacts, a traffic analysis needs to be prepared. This analysis should include the following: o An estimation of the project's total trip generation using recognized trip generation factors. o At a minimum, this analysis should include existing traffic, the project related traffic, the cumulative traffic, along with AM/PM peak hour turning movements. o A highway capacity analysis should be conducted to identify project related and cumulative impacts to mainline Interstate 5. o An estimation of the directional distribution and networking of the project trips. o An evaluation of the project's traffic impact on the Level of Service (LOS) of the key inter- sections in the area including the above noted interchange ramps (merge/diverge and queuing) and ramp intersections. o Since this project proposes to manufacture modular classroom buildings, the study should include an analysis of extra large truck loads and impacts to the noted interchanges and ramp intersections. This should include structural and operational issues. o A discussion which recommends mitigation measures for significant impacts and a reference to funding responsibility for any improvements made necessary by the project traffic. These recommendations should be integrated with the mitigation and financial mechanisms established by the County of San Joaquin. o The project proponents should also contribute a fair share contribution for any needed Project Study Reports for major improvements to mitigate cumulative traffic impacts at the above noted interchanges.
