Traffic impact and pedestrian/bicycle circulation study.

[Amended 11-19-2013 by Ord. No. 369]

Purpose and applicability.

A transportation and pedestrian/bicycle circulation impact study shall be submitted as part of all subdivisions and land development and conditional use applications for all residential subdivisions of 20 lots or more and all commercial, office, industrial, institutional or other uses requiring land development approval. This study will enable Doylestown Township to assess the impact of proposed development or conditional use approval on the transportation and pedestrian circulation system, including pedestrian and bicycle travel, highways and public transportation in Doylestown Township. The purpose of the impact study is to ensure that proposed developments do not adversely affect the transportation network and to identify any traffic problems associated with access from the site to the existing multi-modal transportation network. The study's purpose is also to delineate solutions to potential problems and to present improvements to be incorporated into the proposed development. The study shall assist in the protection of air quality, the conservation of energy, the encouragement of pedestrian and bicycle travel, and the connection between the proposed development and schools, parks, commercial centers and public transportation.

The Township, at its sole discretion, may require any other subdivision to be accompanied by a traffic impact study if, in the opinion of the Township, such a survey is necessary to determine the impact the proposed development will have on Township and state roads in the vicinity of the proposed development. The traffic impact study required pursuant to this subsection shall be performed in accordance with the standards as set forth hereinafter in this subsection. In those situations where the Township may require a traffic impact study, such a requirement shall be communicated in writing to the applicant immediately following the Planning Commission's first meeting to consider the proposal. Such a notification shall specify the reason for the requirement, citing the proposal's particular location or existing problems at that location or type of use (i.e., generation of heavy truck traffic).

PEDESTRIAN AND BICYCLE FACILITIES

Definitions. As used in this subsection, the following terms shall have the meanings indicated:

LEVEL OF SERVICE

Level of service, as described in the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual, Special Report 209, indicates how well traffic moves on a particular highway facility or through a specific intersection. There are six levels of servicing ranging from A through F. Level of Service A indicates generally free movement. Level of Service E represents maximum capacity of the facility. Level F indicates congestion. Level of Service C is considered the design level of service, representing a stable traffic flow and a relatively satisfactory travel speed.

MAJOR INTERSECTION

Any intersection, either signalized or nonsignalized, where traffic generated by the proposal will have a significant impact on the operation of the intersection and/or any other intersection with an arterial or collector road. Where doubt exists, the transportation engineer shall seek guidance from the Township Manager prior to the submission of the traffic impact study.

Pedestrian and bicycle facilities shall include sidewalks, bike lanes, multi-use paths and designated bike routes on public streets including those routes identified in the Doylestown Township Comprehensive Plan and the Bike and Hike Plan which is part of the Comprehensive Plan and PennDOT designated bike routes.

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

Transportation service for the general public provided by a common carrier of passengers generally on a regular route basis, by the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority or a private operator offering service to the public.

STUDY AREA

This area will extend along all Township and state roads serving the development to the nearest intersection with a major arterial road and shall, in any event, extend to all intersections along all roads within 1/2 airline mile area. Where doubt exists, the transportation engineer shall seek guidance from the Township Manager prior to the submission of the traffic impact study.

TRIP GENERATION RATES

The total count of trips to and from a study site per unit of land use as measured by parameters such as dwelling units, acres, etc., which said trip generation rates are established by the Institute of Transportation Engineers, Trip Generation Report, 4th Edition.

VOLUME/CAPACITY ANALYSIS

Procedures used to determine level of services and to evaluate the operational characteristics of a roadway or intersection. The procedures are described in the 1985 Highway Capacity Manual, Highway Research Board, and the results are expressed in level of service for roadway's, signalized and nonsignalized intersections.

WARRANTS FOR TRAFFIC SIGNAL INSTALLATION

This is a series of warrants which detail the minimum traffic or pedestrian volumes or other criteria necessary for the installation of a traffic signal. These warrants are contained in the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices for Streets and Highways, United States Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, 1988, as amended.

General requirements and standards. A transportation and pedestrian/bicycle circulation impact study shall be performed by a qualified traffic engineer and/or transportation planner with previous traffic study experience and shall contain the following information:

General site description. The site description shall include the size, location, proposed land uses, construction staging and completion date of the proposed subdivision or land development. If the development is residential, types of dwelling units shall also be included. A brief description of other major existing and proposed subdivisions and land developments within the study area shall be provided. The general site description shall also include probable socioeconomic characteristics of potential site users to the extent that they may affect the transportation needs of the site (i.e., number of senior citizens). The general site description shall also contain a demographic study which includes projections as to where new residents to be served by the development would work or shop and where employees of new commercial developments would live and the traffic generation effects of such a study. The general site description shall also include analysis of both vehicular and pedestrian/bicycle traffic projected to be generated by children in any new residential development going to and from school.

Transportation and pedestrian/bicycle facilities description. The description shall contain a full documentation of the proposed internal and existing external transportation system. This description shall include proposed internal vehicular, bicycle and pedestrian circulation, all proposed ingress and egress locations, all internal roadway widths and rights-of-way, parking conditions, traffic channelization and any traffic signals or other intersection control devices at all intersections within the site. The site design shall be shown to maximize potential public transportation usage to and from the development, such as providing adequate turning radius at all access points to allow a bus to enter the development. Bus shelter and sign locations shall be designated where appropriate.

The report shall describe the entire external roadway and pedestrian/bicycle system within the study area. Major intersections in the study area shall be identified and illustrated. All existing and proposed public transportation services and facilities within a one-mile radius of the site shall also be documented. All future highway improvements, including proposed construction and traffic signalization, shall be noted. This information shall be obtained from the 12-Year Highway Capital Program for the Delaware Valley Region and from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. Any proposed roadway improvements due to proposed surrounding developments shall be recorded.

Existing traffic conditions. Existing traffic conditions shall be measured and documented for all roadways and intersections in the study area. Existing traffic volumes for average daily traffic, peak highway hour(s) traffic and peak development-generated hour(s) and documentation shall be included in the report. Manual traffic counts at major intersections in the study area shall be conducted, encompassing the peak highway and development-generated hour(s), and documentation shall be included in the report. All documentation shall be included in a technical appendix and consist of highway peak hour turning movement counts expressed in fifteen-minute increments, development-generated peak hour turning movement counts expressed in fifteen-minute increments, capacity analysis worksheets and all quantitative information used in the traffic analysis. A level of service analysis based upon existing volumes shall be performed during the peak highway hour(s) and the peak development-generated hour(s) for all roadways and major intersections in the study area. Levels of service shall be determined for each location. This analysis will determine the adequacy of the existing roadway system to serve the current traffic demand. Roadways and/or intersections experiencing Levels of Service D, E or F shall be noted as congested locations. The analysis shall make use of or reference the Township-wide traffic study where this study includes any analysis of roadways or intersections within the proposed study area.

Transportation impact of the development. Estimation of vehicular trips to result from the proposal shall be completed for the average daily peak highway hour(s) and peak development-generated hour(s). Vehicular trip generation rates to be used for this calculation shall be obtained from the report entitled "Trip Generation, An Informational Report," Fourth Edition, Institute of Transportation Engineers, 1987. For all land uses proposed but not listed in the Institute report, the traffic engineer shall seek guidance from the Township Manager or his designee. All turning movements shall be calculated. These development-generated traffic volumes shall be distributed to the study area and assigned to the existing roadways and intersections throughout the study area. Documentation of all assumptions used in the distribution and assignment phase shall be provided in the technical appendix. Traffic volume shall be assigned to individual access points. Pedestrian volumes shall be calculated, if applicable. If school crossings are to be used, pedestrian volumes shall be assigned to each crossing. Any characteristics of the site that will cause particular trip generation problems shall be noted.

Analysis of transportation impact. The total future traffic demand shall be calculated. This demand shall consist of the combination of the existing traffic expanded to the completion year (using an annual background traffic growth rate which best reflects the intensity of growth projected in Doylestown Township). The background growth rate shall reflect the consideration of other proposed developments within the study area. A list of the proposed developments may be obtained from the Township Manager and/or Township Engineer. The rates shall be based on acceptable parameters such as population and employment and be monitored to ensure that the rate accurately reflects local conditions, the development-generated traffic and the traffic generated by any other proposed developments in the study area. A second level of service analysis shall be conducted using the total future demand and the future roadway capacity. If staging of the proposed development is anticipated, calculations for each stage of completion shall be made. This analysis shall be performed during the peak highway hour(s) and peak development-generated hour(s) for all roadways and major intersections in the study area. Level of service calculations shall be completed for all major intersections. It is usually at these locations that capacity is most restricted.

All access points and pedestrian/bicycle crossings shall be examined as to the feasibility of installing traffic signals. This evaluation shall compare the projected traffic and pedestrian volumes to the warrants for traffic signal installation.

(h)

Analysis of existing roadway pavement conditions. Where the Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance requires the widening of existing pavement, the applicant shall:

Take pavement cores and CBR values of the existing pavement at four-hundred-foot intervals staggered left to right in the path of the outside wheels of vehicles traveling the existing roadway.

Submit an analysis of the existing pavement based on the foregoing core sample and analysis and the traffic volume, to determine the extent of roadway reconstruction needed.

[3]

Submit a plan, profile and detailed road cross sections at fifty-foot intervals with existing and proposed elevations.

(i)

Conclusions and recommended improvements.

Levels of service for all roadways and intersections shall be listed. All roadways and/or intersections showing a level of service below C shall be considered deficient, and specific recommendations for the elimination of these problems shall be listed, unless design limitations preclude Level of Service C. Where such conditions exist, the traffic engineer shall seek guidance from the Township Manager prior to submission of the traffic impact study. This listing of recommended improvements shall include, but not be limited to, the following elements: internal circulation design, site access location and design, external roadway and intersection design and improvements, traffic signal installation and operation, including signal timing, and transit design improvements. All physical roadway improvements shall be shown in sketches.

Other circulation conditions shall be described and analyzed, including sight distance at all proposed access points to the site; circulation of commercial vehicles (trucks, etc.) in nonresidential developments and in multifamily developments.

(j)

Existing and/or future public transportation service shall also be addressed. A listing of all actions to be undertaken to increase present public transportation usage and improve service, if applicable, shall be included.

(k)

The listing of recommended improvements for roadways, pedestrian/bicycle facilities and transit shall include, for each improvement, the party responsible for the improvement, the cost and funding of the improvement and the completion date for the improvement.

Time of submission.
