Frewert Traffic Impact Study An impact to bicyclists occurs if the proposed project disrupt existing bicycle facilities; or conflict or create inconsistencies with adopted bicycle system plans, guidelines, and policies.A significant impact occurs if the proposed project conflicts with applicable or adopted policies, plans or programs related to bicycle facilities or otherwise decrease the performance or safety of bicycle facilities. Due to the nature of the land use, internal bicycle facilities are not needed. Thus,the proposed project will not result in any such conflicts and impacts are considered less-than-significant. Transit Access and Impacts A proposed project is considered to have a significant impact on transit if it conflicts with existing or planned transit facilities, or is expected to generate additional transit trips and does not provide adequate facilities for pedestrians and bicyclists to access transit routes and stops.There are no transit stops located within the project vicinity.Thus,the proposed project will not result in any such conflicts and impacts are considered less-than-significant. 8.2 PARKING The San Joaquin County Development Title Chapter 9-1015M requires two parking spaces per employee for guard house land uses. In order to satisfy San Joaquin County requirements,the project must provide two parking spaces. In addition, as some truck drivers will arrive at the site with their own personal vehicles,those will be parked in the same space as the truck vehicle occupies before it is driven off the site. The project provides five parking spaces, including one accessible space. Since the land use provides parking services, additional parking is not needed.Thus,the provided parking is adequate and meets San Joaquin County requirements. 8.3 QUEUEING ANALYSIS AND DRIVEWAY ANALYSIS Queuing Analysis at Study Intersections TJKM conducted a vehicle queuing and storage analysis for all exclusive left and right turn pockets at selected study intersections and driveways where project traffic is added under plus Project Conditions. The 9511 percentile (maximum) queues were analyzed using the HCM 61h methodology contained in Synchro software. Detailed calculations are included in the LOS appendices corresponding to each analysis scenario.Table 14 summarizes the 951h percentile queue lengths at selected study intersections under Background and Background plus Project Conditions scenarios. As shown below, queue lengths at the study intersections do not exceed capacity without and with the addition of project traffic.Thus, the proposed project does not create a significant impact by itself on the expected left-turn or right-turn queues at the study intersections.
