Item No . PC : 7-2-87 VR-86-5/UP-86-6 Page 9 also calls for the installation of a median divide . While the existing Hammer Lane right-of-way and road improvements are considerably less than those contained in the Specific Road Plan, the Plan itself needs to be upgraded to serve the project traffic volumes associated with cumulative development now foreseeable . If road improvements are required for the Christian Life Center project alone, then major projects such as that proposed should not be approved until local government has had an opportunity to update its traffic projections and to revise the Hammer Lane Specific Road Plan. Site Access and Interior Traffic Circulation: Site access is proposed at two locations : Hammer Lane and State Route 99 West Frontage Road. Interior vehicle traffic circulation between site access points will be handled by a four-lane road which loops around both sides of the project buildings . The site plan should be revised to separate bus and recreational vehicles from automobile and pedestrian traffic . The site plan now designates the ground maintenance and storage area for bus parking. This location is undesirable because it is adjacent to an established residential neighborhood. The area provided for RV parking is at the other end of the project site from the ground maintenance area, between Parking Area A and Parking Area B. It would seem preferable to consolidate the bus and RV parking areas into a single restricted parking area, possibly in a portion of Parking Area A. In addition, it may be desirable to establish a restricted access point on State Route 99 West Frontage Road to improve site ingress and egress for automobiles and buses alike. Pedestrian access to project facilities will be provided in two ways : by drop-offs adjacent to project facilities, and by walkways extending from parking areas to project facilities . The site plan proposes pedestrian drop-offs at the north, west , and east sides of the sanctuary. These drop-offs are shown as widenings beyond the four-lane loop width. Because it is not clear from the site plan whether vehicle traffic will be cir- culating in a one-way or two-way direction, it may be necessary to provide pedestrian drop-offs on the sides opposite the drop- off areas presently shown. The site plan proposes eight-foot sidewalks along the interior side of the loop drive . Eight-foot sidewalks should be added along the outside of the loop drive, as well .
