Administrative Draft Environmental Impact Report <br /> Gill Medical Center Project <br /> Thresholds: Result in hazards due to a geometric design feature (e.g., sharp curves or dangerous <br /> intersection) or incompatible uses (e.g., farm equipment) <br /> The Project construction phase would be typical of similar projects and would primarily involve worker <br /> and construction equipment and material deliveries. No hazards due to design features or incompatible <br /> uses are expected during construction. <br /> Project operation does not involve changes to the existing public road network.The Project is located in <br /> an active agricultural area where drivers are used to accommodating occasional "farm equipment"traffic. <br /> No unusual conflicts are anticipated. All proposed access driveways would be constructed consistent with <br /> County standards for sight line and turn pocket storage length. Finally, onsite circulation does not include <br /> sharp curves or dangerous intersections (see Figure 3-5). Roundabouts, rather than stop signs, are <br /> proposed at the main onsite driveway"intersections." Impacts due to geometric design features or <br /> incompatible uses are less than significant. <br /> Mitigation Measures <br /> None required. <br /> Impact 4.19-4: Result in inadequate emergency access <br /> Impact Determination: Less than Significant <br /> Thresholds: Result in inadequate emergency access <br /> As shown on the Project Site Plan (Figure 3-5) as part of Phase 1 improvements an emergency access road <br /> from West Lane would be constructed along the project's northwestern boundary adjacent the 100-foot <br /> riparian setback buffer.This driveway would provide a secondary emergency access during Phase 1 <br /> operation. Phase 2 buildout would add two additional site access driveways from the south via Eight Mile <br /> Road and from the east via Ham Lane.The Project would not result in inadequate emergency access and <br /> this impact is less than significant. <br /> Mitigation Measures <br /> None required. <br /> 4.19.4 Cumulative Impacts <br /> The analysis of Cumulative Plus Project conditions describes long-term traffic operations in the year 2040 <br /> assuming background land use development consistent with the County of San Joaquin and City of <br /> Stockton General Plans and proposed Project buildout (Phases 1 and 2). The Cumulative Plus Project <br /> conditions assumes roadway improvements assumed for the Cumulative No Project condition as <br /> discussed above and in the Traffic Study (Appendix J) plus the three proposed Project site access <br /> driveways. Comparing traffic operation under this condition to traffic operations under Cumulative No <br /> Project conditions allows an identification of the long-term project-related effects of the proposed Project <br /> relative to adopted LOS policy as discussed above in section 4.1.3.1 Thresholds of Significance. <br /> Transportation 4.19-43 October 2021 <br />
